I'm only gonna post the Backstory as incomplete, mainly because I gotta work around some stuff. This is a full re-write of my Hecate camper, so it'll take some time. As usual, I have a lot of things planned for him....
Name: Adrian Whitman
Nickname: N/A
Age: 18 | January 25th
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bisexual
Personality: Quiet and introverted. Adrian is very philosophical - quite unusual for a son of Hermes, but nevertheless bears many similarities. He possesses a drive to be mischievous, only for the sake of adventure. Adrian hardly ever finds pranks funny, but he does have a sense of humor - mainly in the form of puns. He also enjoys athletics (particularly track, bicycling, and any other non-contact sport besides arena sparring).
Looks:
God parent: Hermes
Powers: Aside from the typical enhanced abilities many Hermes children possess, Adrian is currently aiming to learn more about magic. So far, he's got a lot to learn, but he's making decent progress. I'll go into why he is so into learning magic when I get to his backstory.
Backstory: Okay, time to tackle this behemoth....
Adrian Whitman was born on January 25th, 1997, to a dysfunctional family in the foothills of Missouri. The youngest of four brothers, his life was changed forever when, at the age of 8, his family up and disappeared. Nobody left a note, nobody said anything. There was no trace that they even vanished - they just disappeared.
As a result of this apparent child abandonment, he was taken to a foster home in Kansas City - however, he didn't last for even half a year, committed to finding out what happened to his family. Most believed they were dead without a trace, but something inside him knew better, and set out in search - a search that inadvertently led him east.
It was during a satyr mission in Kentucky that he was found and shown who he really was - a demigod. This only further confused poor Adrian, but nevertheless he was taken to New York, and Camp Half-Blood.
After a year of staying at camp, Adrian developed an interest in magic. He wondered if this could help him - help him find his family, and the truth of what was going on. He took up private lessons with one of these campers, and has lived at camp year round ever since. He's been at camp for ten years.
Strengths:
- A skilled combatant - he's trained himself quite well in the art of swordplay.
- Magical knowledge - though he isn't quite good at casting spells yet, Adrian does know quite a bit about the laws of magic itself.
- Strategy - anywhere Adrian lacks in know-how, he makes up for in cleverness and guile. He's a bit of a rougher version of an Athena kid.
Weaknesses:
- Social adeptness - something he tends to lack in. He finds it hard to keep a conversation on track, and tends to be a little cold when, in reality, he shows compassion in a different manner.
- False obedience - he pretends like he respects authority, but he deems some rules "unnecessary," and will take effort in either redacting them or getting around them.
- Adrian also has astrophobia - a fear of stars. He keeps the reason for this to himself.
Weapon: Adrian possesses a magical machete named Plutarch. It can change its shape, to certain degrees.
Other: I may have another camper or two coming soon. Stay tuned.
