“There comes a day when the sun turns dark,
an overheard conversation shall bring forth a time of war.
On a journey the heroes will embark,
to put a stop to this uproar”

—————

The sun has gone dark. Something has happened to Apollo. And the gods are blaming each other. War is coming. It is up to the demigods to stop this from happening.

—————

This is an AU where we ignore most of the canon characters, the only ones that are relevant are the ones that Rick brought in from the myths. Like the gods and Chiron. The campers will be filled in by us. You can play a satyr if you want to, if so you can fill in Pan as kinda your godly parent. If you want to be a hunter of Artemis, you can be a mortal.

Since the great prophecy of the canon timeline implies the existence of a main character, me and @ThePlayfulFox came up with a new prophecy that won’t include a main protagonist. Which is the one at the top. It’s very open-ended, and that’s kind of on purpose. We will see where the story goes, pretty much. The plot is basically for us to find Apollo.

The recommendation for keeping quest-groups to being only 3 people is gonna stay. However, more than one group can be sent out. And there’s a possibility that we will run into each other on the road. It’s a tough responsibility to put it on just 3 teenagers/pre-teens to prevent a full on war. It’s probably for the best to send out more groups.

Rules:
1. HESTIA, HERA AND ARTEMIS WILL NOT HAVE DEMIGOD CHILDREN, I CANNOT BELIEVE I HAVE TO MAKE THIS A RULE BUT HERE WE ARE.
2. You can be a hunter of Artemis, given that you are a girl or a femme-leaning non-binary.
3. Only Greek gods. We don’t have any Roman, Egyptian or Norse gods in this.
4. Read the roleplaying rules of Pokécharms and follow them.
5. The oath between Zeus, Poseidon and Hades doesn’t exist in this AU.
6. Have fun.

Make your own: https://picrew.me/en/image_maker/1662980 (茶味式きゃらめーかー)
Personality: Sam loves playing pranks on their siblings and on other camp members. They are very open about what they feel.
Seriously, if you’re reading this, you’re on your own. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.
Backstory: Sam grew up with their mortal father (Frederick Barlowe) as Jennifer Barlowe. They lived a pretty normal life, although Sam appeared to attract creepy men quite often. Luckily their clear-sighted father almost always managed to chase them away. There was only one time when he was just a bit too late. A young hellhound attacked Sam and managed to scratch them on the chin, leaving them with a nasty scar and a broken arm. They spent a few days in the hospital but they were quickly back on their feet.

Sam had to transfer schools a couple of times due to being a bit of a pain to deal with. The first time they accidentally set fire to the principal’s car when running away from a weird looking seal. The second time was because they accidentally made a bomb in physics class. The teacher noticed and evacuated the classroom and just moments later the bomb exploded. Luckily it was a small explosion and no one was harmed. In the third school, there were a couple of mishaps but nothing major.

One day, at age 12, on their way home from school, a manticore noticed them and began stalking them. Sam was unaware of the unwanted attention and just kept walking. Sam’s father had decided that he would come meet them on the way. He tried to do this as often as possible when his job wouldn’t get in the way because he knew the dangers. He was in his car driving towards the school and he noticed Sam walking down the street. Sam quickly noticed the car and stopped to wait for their dad to pick them up. That’s when their father noticed the danger. The manticore snuck up behind Sam and was just about to stab them with their tail. Frederick sped up and rammed his car into the manticore as hard as he could. The manticore was hit into a wall, however it reacted quickly and when the car came towards it, it stabbed through the windshield with it’s tail. This caused Frederick to lose his life on the spot. Sam meanwhile could not take their eyes off of the scene. Their father lying motionless against the wheel, arms and legs twisted in unnatural ways, covered in his own blood. The car was wrecked beyond repair. And the manticore screeching in pain and anger. Everyone else around them who witnessed the scene was also shocked for a few seconds before regaining their composure. Someone called 911, someone else tried to help the “poor man” stuck between the car and the wall and someone approached the car to get Frederick out and do CPR. But Sam couldn’t do anything. A nice old lady noticed Sam staring at the scene and began talking to them calmly and tried helping them to calm down. Sam had tears streaming down their face. They couldn’t get any words out. Nothing the lady said helped, not even when the manticore got loose and started attacking again only to be wrestled to the ground by a couple of police officers. But when they heard the ambulance personnel pronounce Frederick dead on the scene, they let out a loud scream and ran over to get closer to their father, screaming that it had to be a lie. A police officer had to hold them back and they were taken into the police station.

At the police station they could finally start calming down. They could no longer produce any more tears. They could however also barely say a word. However this officer was very understanding of the situation. He also happened to be the only officer to keep wearing his police hat indoors. Something that Sam didn’t pay attention to then but the reason for that would soon become apparent.
Frederick Barlowe had no next of kin besides Sam, however this special officer assured Sam that he would get the funeral he deserves. Sam was put in an orphanage while everyone else was trying to figure out a way to help them. The funeral was held two weeks later with this police officer accompanying Sam. He was different from the creepy men who kept appearing. This man was reassuring and friendly. However whenever Sam saw him, he kept a hat on. He clearly had hair so it wasn’t to hide baldness. A curious thing, but who was Sam to question another person’s lifestyle? After the funeral, the police officer asked if Sam would like for him to adopt them. Sam agreed, thinking it couldn’t be worse than living in an orphanage. The police officer gave them a friendly smile and told them they would start the adoption process immediately.
A couple weeks later, the police officer, who’s name was Ivan, had adopted Sam. This was also the time that Ivan decided it was time to discuss something very important with Sam. At the dinner table, he removed his hat to reveal his horns. He told Sam the whole truth. And he told Sam about the camp. Ivan revealed that he was actually working as a police officer as a cover story so he could potentially find more demigods and help them get to camp halfblood. However this was the first time he encountered a situation like Sam’s. He wanted to help as much as possible. That’s why he offered to adopt them.
In the summer, Sam would be sent to the camp to learn more about the life of a demigod. Their first year at camp was when they were 13 years old. They would never forget what happened to their dad and would always find time to go to the grave with flowers when they weren’t at camp. They asked Ivan to do it in their place during the summers.

Name: Mia Hall.
Age: 17.
Gender: Girl. She/her.
Sexuality: Lesbian.
Godly parent: Hecate.
Appearance: 5’1.
IMG_3269.jpeg

Make your own: https://picrew.me/en/image_maker/644129 (makowka character maker II)
Personality: Mia doesn’t talk much. And when she does, it’s almost impossible to hear what she says. Safe to say that she’s quite timid.
Backstory:
Mia was the product of a love affair between a married man and Hecate. They were caught by the wife, who promptly threw her husband out. With nowhere else to go, the man went to a nearby hotel and checked in.

Many weeks went by, but eventually the man managed to convince his wife to take him back. He had managed to dodge a divorce. But this relationship would go through another trial when Hecate appeared again, this time carrying the daughter of her and the man. She informed the husband and wife that she would not be able to raise the child, so she would have to leave her with them. The husband and wife were confused as to why, but after Hecate had handed the baby over, she disappeared. They were forced to take her in. So that’s what they did.

But whether or not this had been a wise decision by Hecate would soon become clear. This couple was not fit for taking care of a child. They were mean towards each other and to the child. And this is what the child would have to grow up with.

As the years passed, the girl, who had been named Mia, grew older. But she was fearful of her parents. Her father tried to be nice to her, she was his biological daughter after all, but his wife brought out the worst in him. The wife was rather angry nearly all the time. And Mia’s father took to the bottle just to be able to cope.

The situation went further downhill when Mia got to preschool age. She hadn’t yet quieted down, so when she spoke to the teachers at preschool, they grew concerned about her home life and brought this up with her parents. When they found out, things turned… physical. The wife made it her mission to teach the girl to shut up. And she eventually, after a year or two, got her wish. Mia grew quiet. She didn’t speak anymore. The wife had successfully made the poor girl mute herself.

So when the teachers grew concerned about Mia not speaking, the wife decided to teach Mia a lesson again. But the contradictions were too difficult to understand. Mia couldn’t grasp what the wife wanted from her. And so, when things got heated one time, Mia’s powers manifested in a very violent way. The room they were in, burned. The wife was incinerated. Mia’s father, who had just allowed for things to happen, was badly injured and later succumbed to his injuries in the hospital. But Mia was unscathed.

When the police arrived at the scene, after the firefighters had done their job, they were confronted with the problem of what they would do with the girl. The girl wouldn’t speak. She wouldn’t answer any questions. She just cried. Not only because of the wife, but also because of what she had done. She was scared. Of herself. She had caused the fire. Not on purpose, but it was still her fault. That’s what she believed. When none of the police officers were looking, she took her opportunity to run. And didn’t look back.

It didn’t take long before she was found by a satyr who brought her with him to camp. She hadn’t trusted him at first, but when he showed his horns, legs and told her what he was, she slowly began trusting him ever so slightly.
Weapon: She doesn’t have one.
Magical abilities:
-She can manipulate magical energy.
-She knows a lot about conjuration, her ability to conjure objects is unmatched. It has proven to be a little bit too powerful. She can’t fully control it.
-Spell creation: Children of Hecate have the power to invent their own spells, just by visualizing what they want the spell to do, and by making their own incantation. Whether they were trained, self-taught or devised the spell on the fly. The spells can be minor, such as locating, summoning animals, divination or controlling emotions. Or they can be more advanced and powerful such as controlling the elements, pure magical energy, necromancy, curses and summoning monsters or magical guardians. Spells cannot be overly powerful or controlling. The more complex and powerful the spell, the more energy it drains from the user.
-Mist manipulation. She can manipulate the mist, the magical veil which separates the magical world from the mortal world.
-She can create anything from the mist.
-She can communicate with crows, ravens, dragons, snakes and owls.
-She can fire an intense beam of pure magic which will burn anything it touches. The beam can also be focused into small magical bullets, which have better range but are less damaging.
-She can make something made of metal electrically charged for a short time.
-She can create a protective dome of magic for a short time.
-She can use spells to teleport herself and her allies. The further she goes, the more energy she drains.

-She likes scary stories and writing. She dreams of becoming a horror writer.
-She has a few scars over her body, some on her arms.

Name: Jake Mortimer.
Age: 17.
Gender: Guy. He/him.
Sexuality: Gay.
Godly parent: Hades.
Appearance: He’s 6’1.
IMG_1786.png

Make your own: https://picrew.me/ja/image_maker/1464051 (ろ式男子メーカー)
Personality: He’s a seemingly calm and quiet guy who doesn’t speak very much. In reality he’s incredibly anxious and he wants someone to talk to.

Backstory: Jake was a very calm boy. He seemed like he was sad most of the time. He would rarely interact with other kids. This was not due to his mother as some might assume. She was actually a rather loving woman who knew the truth of the man she had fallen for. She was not exactly happy with Hades about what had happened but she kept her thoughts to herself. Jake would understand when he grew older. She would discuss it with him then. However she would never get the chance. She passed away from cancer when Jake turned eight. When she knew that she had not long left, she contacted camp halfblood and asked them to take Jake in. She would then write a letter that was to be given to Jake upon his 18th birthday. The letter’s contents were not the explanation. She decided that his birthday should be a happy occasion. Therefore she decided that her explanation would be given to him a week later.

Jake, all up to his mother’s passing, would be considered the weird kid in class who would rather sit by himself and draw. Therefore he was made out to be a good target for bullying. However, much like his mother he was also fond of keeping things to himself. This was difficult when the bullying started to get physical. He would come home with scratches, a black eye and other wounds. It was both a relief and a great pain when he was eventually taken to camp halfblood. He was allowed to attend his mother’s funeral, accompanied by Chiron himself. However he was then directly taken to camp halfblood where he was dumped in the Hermes cabin due to the Olympians’ big ego. This was a better alternative to being physically attacked by his classmates, however the pranks were giving him a lot of anxiety. He eventually got used to it and would give up on trying to stop it.

Weapon: Sword made of Stygian Iron.
Magical abilities:
-Necromancy. Can both talk to and control ghosts freely.
-Summon undead (Zombies and skeletons).
-Shadowtravel.
-Banish the dead.

-Phobikinesis. He radiates an aura of fear and death.
-Shadow fusion. He can merge with shadows for a short time.
-Night vision.
-Death trance. He can enter a state where he virtually dies for a day by eating a Persephone seed. This will let him consume a lot less oxygen and need no other sustenance.
-He becomes more powerful in the dark, much like a child of Poseidon gets more powerful in the water.
-He can summon and control creatures of the underworld.
Other:
-His birthday is May 22nd.
-Has a skeleton puppy named Maria.
-Has a dark sense of humor.
-Loves dark and shadowy places.
-He arrived at camp when he was 8.

He eventually pulled Tim out of school and homeschooled him. He was never understanding and he was never gentle. It wasn’t fun to be around his father.

Personality: Unbothered yet easily amused. He tends to flock towards any sort of excitement, especially if it's of the drama sort. If you want dirty secrets at camp, it's a good bet Wyatt knows it. He collects secrets to entertain himself and occasionally starts conflict using them against others. This shouldn't be too surprising given his godly parent. He finds conflict to be beneath him, and rather talk someone else into doing it for him or find a way to avoid it.

Backstory: His father is a news anchor, which at a young age got him to watch the news to look for his pa on TV. This also quickly sparked his interest in hearsay, urban legends, and gossip from what the media would discuss.

This sounds fun! Gonna throw my hat in the ring.

Name: Wyatt Ledger
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Gay
Godly parent: Eris
Appearance: He is 5'5, a bit scrawny.View attachment 948107
Personality: Unbothered yet easily amused. He tends to flock towards any sort of excitement, especially if it's of the drama sort. If you want dirty secrets at camp, it's a good bet Wyatt knows it. He collects secrets to entertain himself and occasionally starts conflict using them against others. This shouldn't be too surprising given his godly parent. He finds conflict to be beneath him, and rather talk someone else into doing it for him or find a way to avoid it.

Backstory: His father is a news anchor, which at a young age got him to watch the news to look for his pa on TV. This also quickly sparked his interest in hearsay, urban legends, and gossip from what the media would discuss.

After figuring out that he was the mastermind for the infamous 'Mac & Cheese Rebellion' in the school he attended, his dad knew exactly where to send him to keep a lower profile.


Weapon: A curved dagger
Magical abilities:
-Can inscribe magical words into objects
-Can throw his voice exceedingly far
-Can make his voice sound like someone else's
-Can turn invisible by snapping his fingers
-Can sense nearby drama
-Was given a pair of boots from his mother as a gift that makes his steps soundless.

Other:
  • Likes to turn people on each other for the fun of it
  • Is noticeably charismatic
  • Prefers to have power players in his corner
  • Lazy unless motivated by drama or fun
  • Is more likely to talk out a fight than actually contribute.
  • Loves watching cheesy romantic films
  • Always there for emotional support, even if it's partly to hear the juicy deets.
Accepted. Will be interesting to see how you talk your way out of different combat scenarios.

Ended up making 3 characters, hope they are OK.

Growing up Anastasia found out the truth pretty quickly as her abilities made things very difficult for her.

While they were in America they were attacked by a cyclops and hernmother was killed, she managed to escape by turning the cyclops to ice when she let out a large burst after watching her mother die. They had ended up in the forest around Camp Halfblood without realising and she her outburst had attracted attention resulting innher being found and taken into camp. The frozen cyclops is still standing in the forest surrounded by an unexplained area of frost and cold. She found a home at camp, and unlike most lesser known gods children she was actually claimdd almost immediately by her father Boreas and has been at camp ever since.

These are accepted.

I want to make it clear that it’s okay to include side characters as well (I’m gonna introduce a few either later today or tomorrow). And I should probably mention that this will take place in 2020. And the children of minor gods are still gonna get shoved in with the Hermes kids unfortunately

Depending on whether anyone else makes a Hermes kid, my character might turn out to be the counselor too. And that would be chaotic because they’re basically a hyperactive raccoon filled with caffeine
Anastasia probably has some sort of responsibilities at Camp she has been there 7 years and is probably one of the oldest but as she is the child of a minor God I'm not sure what her responsibilities might be.

She could be the “real” counselor. The title is just given to a child of Hermes for show. On the other hand, my character Jake has been at camp for 9 years. But he’s not exactly counselor material, he would run away if he gets overwhelmed

Previously Night's Shadow
Name: Cruz Finnegan
Age: 17
Gender: androgynous female
Sexuality: unlabeled
Godly parent: Hephaestus
Appearance: Has a few scars from accidental cuts during her work. 5’6”, average height, muscular build. Too curvy for her own comfort; hides it with bulky clothes.
IMG_8926.png

Personality: Cruz is never afraid to laugh at herself, but also has a strong moral compass. While she may tolerate mean-spirited teasing of herself perhaps a little more than is healthy, she refuses to watch anyone else being put down. Though cheerful and mischievous in lighthearted moments, Cruz can become intense and ready for action in a heartbeat if necessary. Still, she’s generally even-tempered and not prone to mood swings. Romantically oblivious.
Backstory: Cruz’s mother was a philanthropic mechanical engineer who worked on building robots for her job and in soup kitchens in her free time. Cruz grew up helping the less fortunate on the weekends, protecting her shy half-sister at school, and building things with her mom whenever she had the chance. Her stepfather was a doting househusband who her mom met a couple of years after Cruz’s birth.

Cruz was brought to Camp Half-Blood when she was fourteen after a fiery sneeze when she was home alone burned down half her family’s house. As far as her family knows, Cruz was burned to ashes in the flames. She still missed her family dearly, but knows she can’t return for their protection.

Weapon: A metal three-section staff affectionately nicknamed “the Whip”
Magical abilities:
  • resistance to heat (but not spicy food)
  • can produce small amounts of flame along the surface her skin
  • can sense and intuitively operate or fix machinery
  • greatly increased dexterity (with hands) and strength
  • picks up skills with new tools very easily
  • can communicate (more or less) with quail (they’re surprisingly vulgar)
Other:
  • refuses to swear, and if she feels the urge will use a white-christian-mom-level substitute
  • hates bullies with a passion
  • birthday is November 14
  • favorite food is ramen
  • often doesn’t notice her own physical injuries but will ask immediately if someone is okay if she notices theirs
  • will try just about anything on a dare

Interesting character. Accepted
 
Well, here goes. Hopefully I'm doing this right, I only faintly remember reading Magnus Chase and Heroes of Olympus back in the day...
Name: Theodore Theobold
Nicknames: "Ted" or "Teddy", depending on one's formality with him
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Homosexual
Godly Parent: Zeus
Appearance: Teddy has deathly straight, shoulder-length black hair, with a loose array of bangs in the front to add some sense of direction in its otherwise mild appearance. His pale, grey eyes are seemingly always only kept half-open, appearing hopelessly unamused, yet analytical and brooding. Teddy's resting face doesn't make up for this, as it seems almost perpetually annoyed. He stands at a staggering height of 6'4, with a robust and strong physique, from, well, his father's side. He has medium brown skin, with absolutely no blemishes or acne, almost as if he was wearing makeup. Teddy's wardrobe is far from exciting however, as he is mostly caught in his workout or camp clothes. The only thing that sets him apart in this aspect is his silver chain; he seems to act as if he is the first person in the world to think of wearing one, and takes great pride in its aesthetic differentiation.
Personality: Usually unfocused and silent, Teddy frequently gets misunderstood or misread by those around him. Throughout most of his life, he was forced into the limelight, molding him into a uniquely quiet leader; a gentle giant, you could say. Teddy is resoundingly pragmatic, finding strength through unity to be an ideal principle. His sheer conviction and ambition is truly astounding, but he primarily uses it to benevolently look after those he views as vulnerable, being all too familiar with what affects a stifled family can have on a child. He decries hypocrisy and injustice in all forms, and relentlessly tries to be as humble as he can, but trying can only get you so far. Although, he isn't always so serious, usually trying to make a joke out of most things to put people at ease, with mixed results.
Backstory: Hailing from the markedly small town of Fort Yates, North Dakota on the Standing Rock Reservation, Teddy grew up raised by his aunt Leann and her boyfriend Robert. He never got to know who his mother was, as she apparently died from some accident when he was younger; but Leann was never sentimental enough to address it to him, leaving him without closure on the matter. Both Robert and Leann struggled with alcoholism, but Teddy could never bring himself to resent them for it. He excelled in sports, particularly football, but was often maligned by his superiors for challenging or outright ignoring them. Teddy was also diagnosed with all manner of psychiatric illnesses (autism, ADHD, dyslexia), which Leann grew frustrated of and often disavowed their legitimacy. Being the son of Zeus probably didn't help much, as many of these illnesses were exaggerated to their extremes, particularly his dyslexia, which continues to render him entirely illiterate in any script other than Greek. Speaking of Zeus, Teddy was only claimed by the time he reached Camp Half Blood following the mysterious and sudden deaths of Robert and Leann one cold night, having lodged at the Hermes cabin until his claiming. He liked to think that it helped humble him and made him more temperamental than his cabin mates, but that is always up to opinion.
Weapon: A plain, seemingly uninteresting metal spear is his weapon of choice, with a point of celestial bronze at the end of it. At first, he found it hard to use owing to its overall inflexible utility, but found a great payoff in learning to wield it more deftly.
Magical Abilities:
-Kingly Aura - owing to Zeus's being the God of kingship, those around him usually feel naturally inferior to him; Teddy despises this ability particularly, as others, upon feeling this, chalk Teddy up as simply narcissistic and pompous, which couldn't be further from the truth.
-Wind Manipulation - he can change and bend windspeed to his will, rather easily, but he doesn't really ever find much use out of it.
-Weather Manipulation - and by this, I mean he can only generate storms. He also views this as somewhat useless, as the only time he'd want to change the weather would be to get rid of a storm, but often finds himself adding to a given storm's strength, much to his chagrin.
-Additionally, Zeus being the God of Honor, Teddy has an impeccable sense of intuition regarding the honesty and honorability of those he meets; he can either take an immediate liking to someone, or scorn if they even so much as walk in the room.
-Other than these, Teddy has the standard host of Jovian abilities, including increased agility, strength, and endurance. Most glaringly, he lacks any meaningful ability to manipulate lightning, which he theorizes has something to deal with his delayed claiming by Zeus.
Other:
-Has a large passion and admiration for birds and birdwatching.
-Arrived to the camp when he was 12, claimed at 13.
-His birthday is on the 10th of January.

Accepted. You could give him some power over lightning if you want to, but I enjoy seeing a child of Zeus without those abilities. It’s interesting.

Regarding Zeus being the god of honor, that is very ironic lmao

Able to sense honorability and honesty huh? Sounds like a very useful ability, especially if running into a monster in disguise or something lol

Oh, I didn't even think about that! We'll see how foolproof this is in practice though, he could very well go and misread someone. Probably not the best to end up on the bad side of a Zeus child, but better safe than sorry, I suppose... :'|

Ngl, I think it would make for some interesting interactions with my child of Hermes who is capable of bending the truth (which I imagine is similar to a charmspeak-like ability/Jedi Mind Trick)
 
Sorry about the double post, everyone. I just need to announce one thing, as well as introduce some of my own side characters.

Once everyone has made a character, I will randomise which characters will be chosen as quest leaders. Though one thing has already been set in stone regarding this, my character Sam will not go on a quest. I have another plan for how they get involved in the story. I’ll take into consideration what kind of wishes you have for your characters, so if you don’t want them to be quest leaders please let me know so I can make adjustments. We will get some time to get to know each other’s characters before I kickstart the actual story, so you can mingle and decide which characters you would like to go on quests with. Maybe you will even pick quest leaders yourselves so I don’t even need to randomise it, then I can keep being lazy. But if not, I’ll randomise it.

Personality: Alex is reserved for a child of Apollo. They are friendly, yes, but they prefer to keep to themselves. They enjoy playing the older sibling role to those in the Apollo cabin and try their best to be a good role model. They also tend to be a stickler for the rules. Despite this, they are not the ‘boring rule follower’ and do enjoy jokes and light pranking (as long as no one gets into trouble. That is very important.) They do tend to be pretty anxious. Extremely anxious.
Alex cannot lie. Not literally, but figuratively.
Backstory: Alex never knew either of their bio-parents growing up. Their mother died when they were still a baby (one) and their dad was a god. They were adopted by a pair of strict Christian fundamentalists who were struggling to have children of their own. They were treated well by their new parents, even after they were able to have biological children in the twins, Evan and Ethan.

Despite Alex’s adoptive parents treating them well, Alex had a lot of high expectations placed upon them. Their parents wanted them to be the perfect Christian daughter, after all. Something that did not come naturally to Alex. After all, they had both ADHD and dyslexia, even if they were never diagnosed (their parents refused to even look into a diagnosis, insisting that Alex was just being lazy.) Alex still did their best, though.

Alex had a very good relationship with their step-brothers. After all, as they got older, they were expected to help care for them. Evan and Ethan tended to cause less trouble for Alex, as long as they performed a favor for them, said favor being anything from “forgetting” to end their allotted TV time (if Alex did this, they typically decided to perform chores on the other side of the house) to helping them with a “project” (which was typically something kinda interesting).

When Alex became twelve, she was attacked by a monster for the first time. She was out for a walk with Evan and Ethan. She would’ve died if she wasn’t saved by someone who was also a demi-god. A 13-year-old named George Baker. He claimed that he was a child of Demeter and that Alex was a demi-god too. Alex didn’t believe him. They couldn’t believe him. After all, Demeter was just part of Greek mythology, and the mist was still actively working against Alex at the time, making the monster attack seem somewhat normal. Though one of her brothers was freaking out more than normal, insisting that the creature that attacked Alex was not normal at all, it was some sort of monster. George continued with his explanation, Alex finally going along with it, albeit hesitantly. He told her about Camp Half-Blood, and apologized for hurting them when he jumped in.

When Alex and their brothers got back home, Alex's mother did not react well. After all, Greek gods were nothing more than myth, and were inferior to the one true God. By saying that she (misgendered on purpose here. Alex's mom's POV) could be a Greek demi-god, Alex was sinning. On purpose.

The relationship between Alex and their parents only got worse from that day. Fortunately, Evan and Ethan had their back through it all. Even after Alex insisted that they were not going to return home and stay at CHB, they stayed in contact with the two.

Magical abilities:
  • Walking truth detector (high accuracy rate)

  • limited precognition (like, 30 seconds max)
  • can inflict a rhyming curse
  • Healing song (broken due to the disappearance of Apollo)
  • Pain transfer/Absorption (Share the owies! The pain has to go somewhere, and Alex typically heals you up, but she’s injured now. Or, they can transfer the pain they have to someone else, they rarely do this, though.)
  • Slightly enhanced natural healing factor (Their body repairs itself slightly faster than normal. Unfortunately it works best with minor injuries)
  • Injury/Vitals Sensor (they can sense just how injured someone is with a touch)
  • Immune to sunburns and can stare at the sun
  • Disease arrows (only minor diseases like a cold and this takes a lot of energy)
