That Gift Would Be Curiosity

Antonia Kyveli Brannon, played by Erin Mackey

---

Alice Fortunata Maciel met Apollo at a poetry slam she attended as a means to get out of the house for reasons other than work. They hooked up, and Toni was born the proper length of time thereafter. Alice met Colin while picking Toni up from preschool, through Colin's daughter Veronica. A few years down the line, they married, bringing little Toni's family of two up to six.

When Toni was ten, she started to notice a pattern - people came to her for help with bandages or ointments. About this time she began playing saxophone, beginning with a tenor almost as tall as she was. She was claimed at thirteen, just in time to fight in the Battle of Manhattan. She had been at camp for maybe two months at that point, and she still has nightmares about fellow demigods bleeding out beneath her fingers.

In her four years at Camp Half Blood, Toni has been a part of two quests. The first was a mission set by the Lords of the Wild, and the questing party consisted of a son of Demeter, a dryad, and Toni. For a mission involving demigods, it was comparatively uneventful. (Just, you know, don't mention watermelons to those three.) Her second quest information will eventually go here.


Toni could use a couple of friends in camp. Specifically, I'd like her to meet/befriend a Hephaestus camper, a child of Hecate, and one or two of Aphrodite's brood. I'm open to interaction with canon characters as well.

Camp Half Blood

[/b]

Toby Davis, son of Apollo – half brother. Toby insists on calling Toni by her full name of ‘Antonia’, which irks her no end. She ordinarily suppresses her responses, but every once in a while (maybe once a week), it erupts into a nasty fight. They spend some time sending passive-aggressive messages to each other via their siblings, but in the end, Toni will always come through for her siblings. When they do get along, they are partners in crime, and likely to get into all sorts of mischief. Anna

Uriel de Felipe, son of Hecate – questing partner. Further details still being hashed. Uriel[/ul]
Camp Jupiter

[/b][/ul]

---

Toni likes short shorts and tall socks. Most of the shoes she brings to Camp are practical in nature, so very few heels. She has three piercings in each ear, and prefers to wear pearls.

---

Toni has a prescription for Adderall, which she takes during the school year in order to pay attention in school. Her battle instincts don't do her schooling any favors, and it's school that will get her where she wants to go. Toni has her eye on med school, and her every move gets rewritten until it looks favorable on a transcript.

Naomi Miyamoto, played by Kou Shibasaki

---

Kenshin Miyamoto is a justice of the peace in a Texas court of law. He hears mostly little cases, ‘small claims’, but he is known as a fair and impartial judge. Ma’at liked that about him, and visited him in dream, first. Naomi was not a surprise, but unlike many other deities, Ma’at kept no subterfuge about her baby. Kenshin is fully aware of the existence of the pantheons, though he only admitted to knowing about the Egyptian gods.


Naomi doesn't have many friends, but he has been at Camp Isis since he was twelve, so he knows people. Plenty of Egyptian demigods would still use female pronouns for him, and since he hasn't officially made it known that he prefers male indicators, he wouldn't push the matter.

Naomi is an archer, and could use a friend or two with different weapons. I would like to explore a little bit of backstory, particularly the relationship that led to his oath of celibacy. If anyone would like to explore that with me, I'd be delighted to share my thoughts.

---

Anthony Anderson, son of Ra – Pharaoh. Anthony and Naomi are as close of ‘friends’ as Naomi has these days. He is one of the few people at Camp Isis to use his proper pronoun, and they get along well. Anna

Samuel Connors, son of Amen – Prophet. Passing acquaintances, both social recluses. Naomi sympathizes with the plight of one of the chosen visionaries. Anna

---

Being the child of the goddess of truth, Naomi is physically uncomfortable using clothing to misdirect people. He dresses to effect most of the time, in polka-dot dresses and cherry red heels, but if he is wearing female clothes, it is because he is comfortable in his female body. It’s only his mind that is male. He likes heels, lingerie, and maintaining his waist-length hair.

---

Laura Lynn Alesi, played by April Lee Hernandez

---

Laura is a daughter of Vulcan, and a third-generation legacy of Fulgora. Her mother, legacy of the goddess of lightning, served as centurion for five years during her time in the Legion, and praetor for two. Given this prominence, one would think her daughter would have better reference letters. Camille Alesi left New Rome for Europe, and cut all ties to her past. She became a wealthy business woman, and moved back to the United States. Shortly after that, she met Vulcan and had Laura. Camille was killed courtesy of a drive-by shooter, leaving Laura alone in the world. She ran away from her first foster home at the age of five, and lived on the streets of Oakland until a dream drew her to the Wolf House and Lupa at the age of nine.

She was a citizen of New Rome for a full year before joining the Legion. Her favored weapons are her gladius and her javelin. Despite efforts, she has not yet made a magical weapon that satisfies her.

Four years in Legion and one in New Rome, Laura knows people. She needs friends, both from her own and other cohorts. She also needs a few enemies, people she blew off one too many times, or perhaps people she's offended.

Camp Half Blood

[/b]

Antonia “Toni” Brannon, daughter of Apollo – figure of respect. While they belong to different mythos, Toni is Erin’s older sister, and therefore a person of interest (even if Laura doesn’t realize it). She is the mothering sort, and if Laura were injured, Toni wouldn’t think twice about healing her. Faerie

Elaine Kirk, Hunter of Artemis. Hunter of Artemis, Hunter of Diana, it doesn’t really matter much to Laura. She doesn’t spend much time around the hunters, and wouldn’t care to even if she emerged from her creative fugue more often. Faerie[/ul]
Camp Isis

[/b]

Naomi Miyamoto, child of Ma’at – distant acquaintance. They would sometimes share a forge, and Naomi might learn something from the child of a god of the forge, but they do not have much in common besides having a divine parent. Faerie[/ul]
Camp Jupiter

[/b]

Erin Davis, son of Apollo – mild love interest. If Laura ever emerged from her world of engineering, she would realize how much of a crush she has on him. Erin always makes her smile, ever since the day he awkwardly read her a poem and cut through creator’s block. She considers him her muse. Anna

Kyle West, son of Jupiter – Praetor. Laura is very correct with Kyle. He makes her feel safe, what with how he never oversteps the boundaries of social niceties. He always manages to teach her something, and some might speculate that she has a crush on him. In fact, she sees him more as a parental authority figure. Anna

Maxwell Valentine, son of Venus - friend. Maxwell and Laura share of a love of comic books, and though they aren't in the same legion, they spend more time speaking to each other than Laura spends with most demigods in her legion. Fifth Cohort. Mandi-cakes

Reyna, daughter of Bellona – same Cohort. Laura and Reyna are both members of the First Cohort, so they live in close proximity with each other. Reyna was in command during the march on Mount Orthys, and while Laura has good relationships with at least one of the current praetors, she has complete trust in Reyna. Faerie[/ul]

Camp Midgard

[/b][/ul]

New Rome

[/b]

Lucas Carter, legacy of Mercury – antagonist. These two have a very poor background. Lucas tried to pull a prank on Laura when she was newly arrived to New Rome, fresh off the streets. It very nearly ended in blood. Suffice it to say, she does not like him. Anna

Elaine Kirk, played by Dana Davis

[/i] seventeen[/ul]Parentage: human
Rank: Hunter of Artemis
Location: Varied
Languages Spoken: Creole, English, Ancient Greek, Phoenician, Latin, Enochian
Powers: Archery, Tracking, Magic, Beast-speak
Speech: E0EEEE [/div]

---

Elaine began life as a slave in pre-Civil War America. Before pledging her life to Artemis, she was married - without her input, nor consent (property, after all, cannot give consent). She was pregnant four times, three times by her owner, once by the man she was married to. Two children survived the dangers of childhood long enough to procreate, and Elaine has descendants on the earth right now. One daughter became a Hunter of Diana, a few generations down, and one or two belong to demigod camps. Elaine has no interest in tracking these people down, nor would she know what to say if she were to meet them.

---

Camp Half Blood

Zoey Washington, daughter of Poseidon – friend. Elaine has a penchant for horses. Zoey can speak to them. Elaine once took Zoey on an unauthorized field trip to speak to an injured horse so that she could heal him. Anna[/ul]

Phillip Cyrus de la Fontaine, played by Chris Colfer


Loki met Abraham de la Fontaine at the state fair. He had been wearing a female form, and taking pleasure in causing small mischief. Things like moving grooming brushes three inches to the left, or swapping the appearance of dimes and pennies in the till. Nothing big, not on this day. Abraham had been enjoying a bag of cotton candy, unconcerned with the appearance of a grown man eating a children's sweet. (Loki isn't sure what drew him, really.) They shared a night in a hotel, exchanged numbers with only the expectation of a little bit of fun.

It wasn't surprising, to Loki, to have conceived while with Abraham, and while there were a number of things he could do with a half-human spawn, he wanted to gift the kind, lonely man. Abraham was given full custody of little Phillip at the moment of birth. (Loki is still proud of himself for that one - went through the trouble of bamboozling a hospital staff into believing he'd been a patient there for years, and was having a difficult labor). Until Abraham met Audrey, Loki stuck around California quite a bit. Phillip had a maternal presence, and learned basic illusions at Loki's illused knee.

Robin's family lives in California. His step-brother is the son of Nemestrinus, the minor Roman god of the woods. He is married to Francie, a second-generation child of Tempestes, the Roman goddess of the storms. They have a child together, Robin's niece Rorie. The other women of his family are mortal, and relatively unaware of their brothers' divine parentage.

---

Camp Midgard

[/b]

Evan Creswell, son of Loki - younger brother. Evan hasn't been claimed yet, but Robin has taken him under wing anyways. Robin is one of the best swordsmen in Camp Midgard, and a patient teacher besides. With a war brewing on the horizon, not even the youngest demigod can afford to neglect weapons. Mandi-cakes

Justin Davis, son of Thor, Aesir - No. Robin and Justin have a mutual distrust of each other, mostly stemming from their parentage. Justin's sister is Robin's best girl, and he hasn't the slightest idea what happened with him. Justin likes to treat Robin like a little brother, which pisses Loki's son off no end. The Aesir was much less insufferable before his promotion. Anna

Raelene Thatcher, daughter of Loki - 'twin' sister. They are the same age, but if there is a demigod Robin gets along with worst, it would be Rae. She is devoted to her father, and cares not for love. Robin is fizz-bang, flip-flop, head-over-heels, heaven-for-a-minute in love. They fight about many things, but she is the one sibling Robin cannot bring himself to share his relationship with. Shadow

Rosalia Moore, daughter of Loki - younger sister. Close, not quite friends, but there will be hell to pay for messing with Loki's daughter. Sometimes Robin feels like Rosalia's father, or perhaps a favorite uncle, because her father isn't around much. Robin got more time with Loki-as-mom than Rosalia did with Loki-as-dad, and having a steady-tempered father and step-mother definitely helped. Mandi-cakes

Riley Davis, daughter of Thor, Vanir - best girl. To the casual observer, Robin and Riley cannot stand each other. They are constantly sniping at each other, and things that ought to be friendly spars get malicious awfully quick. They pick at each others clothes, choice in dates, and parentage. A more observant individual might notice that they seem to have a very similar taste in clothes. In fact, if they didn't know better, they might say that they shared that pair of pants. Mandi-cakes

Summer Allens, daughter of Eostre - friends. Summer's true disposition is what Robin likes to present to the world. Her presence is a balm to the disconnect between his emotions and the mask he wears. They are often in each other's company. Anna

Zachary Allwood, son of Baldr - prospective brothers-in-law. Snark off. Zachary is probably the first person to have called Phillip by the moniker of ‘Robin’, way back when. Robin and Zach are good friends who communicate with snark and jokes, and Robin thinks he’s good for his half-sister. Anna[/ul]
Camp Jupiter

[/i] in love with this Roman Centurion. He knows Dylan is Roman, and Dylan knows that he is Norse, but neither knows that the other knows of their divine parentage. (This will be fun!) Lately, Robin’s thoughts have been turning towards matrimony… Anna

John Tyler de la Fontaine, son of Nemestrinus - step brother. John's mother married Robin's father when the boys were in preschool. If asked, they claim each other as kin. Robin knows that John is a Roman demigod, but John does not know Robin's Nordic ties. NPC, adoptable.

Francesca Rachel de la Fontaine née Corsaut, second generation legacy of Tempestes. Robin does not see his sister-in-law much, and is unaware of the particulars regarding her parentage. They are friends, and he dotes upon her daughter. NPC, adoptable.[/ul]

Deities

[/i], and plans to nudge his son in a better direction once the war is finished and the Roman is dead. Anna[/ul]

---

Gyges Ring - Situated on his left index finger, it has a large, multifaceted onyx in a gold setting. It was anointed with a number of things, including blood, ash, and graveyard dirt, to act as a vessel for his raven messenger. The name is a little bit of a joke for Robin, as it is also enchanted with a 'Notice-Me-Not' glamor, activated when he turns to onyx to his palm. It's aplay on the story of Gyges and his ring of invisibility.

Glamour Ring - This, he wears on his right thumb. It was his initiation ring, for the period of time between fourteen and seventeen, when Robin belonged to a Canadian coven. Once he broke ties with his coven, he used it to anchor all of the various glamors he employs on a daily basis - the little ones hiding his many scars, as well as the big ones that hide...other things.

Opal Ring - For a child of the Norse, Robin is also an Egyptian magic user. His patron goddess is Isis, and the ring he wears on his right middle finger was a gift from her. It is a receptacle of magic, and whenever Robin has a little extra strength that he doesn't need, or if he gets over-charged and has a dangerous amount of energy, he charges the opal. In times of need, it is a powerful back up.

Blackjack entered the saga of Camp Half Blood after being rescued from the Princess Andromeda, the ship Kronos used to gather his army. He was rescued by Perseus Jackson, son of Poseidon. Since then, he has followed Percy willingly and loyally, and calls him 'Boss' rather than 'Lord'. His best friends are Porkpie and Guido, both white pegasi, and he is acquainted with Rainbow the Ophiotaurus.

---

Camp Half Blood

[/b]

Zoey Washington, daughter of Poseidon - Lady. Lady is a little younger than Boss, and Blackjack doesn't spend a lot of time with her. However, she always brings him some sort of treat, whether it be a traditional equine treat, like an apple or some sugar, or a Blackjack treat, like donuts. With time, he may grow to prefer Lady's treatment over Boss'. Anna[/ul]

Calum Jarvis, played by Darren Criss

---

Calum is the eldest of the Jarvis siblings, Gillian's first child by a god. He tries to keep his family sheltered from the horrors of the Egyptian gods, carefully shielding them from the truths of his life. Should it come down to it, he would die in the defense of his siblings and mother, at the expense of other relationships in his life.

Alistair Maximiliano Raphael Fuentes, played by Tyler Posey

---

Alistair hates the gods. If this is to end in war, he will topple Olympus in retaliation. The gods don't care, the gods rearrange mortals for their own amusement.

There is some history behind this hatred. Lorena Domitila Maria Fuentes-Rodriguez was married to Arthur Celestino Christopher Fuentes-Rodriguez, a good, pious Catholic couple living a comfortable, upper-middle class life in Miami, Florida. Arthur was - and is - a heart surgeon. Lorena had quit her teaching job to raise her first two children, and Arthur often went to medical conventions for a week at a time or more. Now, many men would tell their wives they were at a conference when they had a bit on the side, but Arthur was loyal.

He was deeply in love with Lorena, faithful, and positively delighted with his firstborn daughter and her little brother. Lorena thought that he came back to her, one night when he was supposed to be at a conference, for a little fun. He settled his first two children, then took her into the bedroom. Nothing clued her in to his true identity, and nothing was amiss until Lorena was talking with Alistair nine years later. Arthur overheard the sanitized version of the night he romanced Lorena. Later, he looked up the night in question, because he couldn't recall such an occasion. He had, in fact, never left the conference. This sparked an argument that ended in divorce, and a spiral of crippling addictions for Lorena.

Zeus sent a satyr for Alistair after the Battle of Manhattan, claiming him at the age of fifteen. He has regretted that decision ever since. Alistair does not consult the gods, does not work with or for the gods.

---

[/b]

Nicholas Collins, son of Aphrodite – ex-boyfriend, very close friend. Nicky and Alistair actually dated last summer, for about a month. Alistair broke it off because he was having trouble expressing desire, and didn’t want to hold his friend down like that. They remain good friends, and Nicky is one of the few people in New York, much less Camp Half Blood, that Alistair loves. Anna

Nico di Angelo, son of Hades – respectful acquaintances. Nico is fairly neutral towards Alistair. Alistair has Nico classified as probably an ally that would like to see Olympus fall, but Mary Mother of God, he scares me’. Anna

Thalia Grace - younger sister, demigod. Thalia is technically older than him, by roughly a year, but she is frozen at fifteen, making him physically older. Archie

Toby Davis, son of Apollo – No. Toby doesn’t mind Alistair. The elder son of Zeus likes to intimidate the boy with a crush on his half sister, even worse that he’s an Apollo. Privately, Alistair has earmarked Toby as the death that will shake Apollo badly enough to dethrone him. Anna

Zelda Moon - younger sister, demigod. Zelda annoys Alistair, to the point that he does not stay in the cabin with her unless it's to sleep. Her innocence grates at the son of a mother stripped of love and support, someone whose mother was so destroyed by Olympus that she lives in a mental hospital. Karen[/ul]

Halcyon, the Anodorhynchus hyacinthinus

Stephanie Alice Downey, played by Julianne Hough

---

No one is ever quite sure as to whether Clara and Hannelore Goldschmidt are constantly cheating on each other, are obsessed with artificial insemination, or have a male bit on the side. What is known, though, is that these women have a lot of children. Three boys, three girls, and none of them look alike. Not all of them are directly related to their mothers – at least two are adopted. However, all six children are very much siblings – constantly at each other’s’ throats, and viciously protective of each other.

Golden Hill Ranch lies in Arizona, and it has both horses and cattle on it. Even the youngest, Aaron at thirteen, is proficient at handling cattle. Of the four demigod children, the only one who does not take at least one horse every summer is Julian.

Several of the Goldschmidt children have adopted names different than what the legal papers say. For instance, the only person who calls Stevie ‘Stephanie’ is her brother the Pharaoh, and that only when she pisses him off. She is known as Stevie Downey, and few know her full legal name. She guards her middle name like the knowledge of it is magic. (Nat is Natka Kuznetsova in Camp Midgard; Joe has his father’s surname; Aaron took Clara’s maiden name not long after Stevie did.)

Samuel Connors, son of Amen; half-brother - Prophet. It took a little bit of time to get his measure, but Stevie likes to hang out with her other half-brother.He is light, and fun, and he genuinely likes to learn her first tongue. Since she doesn't really get to speak German at Camp Isis, she relishes the opportunity to teach. Anna[/ul]

Despite an extensive collection of barn grade clothing, Stevie likes to dress up. Corsets for fashion instead of shaping, cute skirts, heels, all of these she will go gaga over. Her colors are purple and blue, with a good smattering of black in the mix. After four years of practice, Stevie is as comfortable fighting in four inch heels as she is picking horse feet and measuring feed.

Castiel de Bosco Arso, played by Jensen Ackles

---

After leaving Lupa at thirteen, Castiel was sorted into the Second Cohort, same as his father had been. His grasp of magic made him an invaluable asset to his Cohort, and he spent more time pouring over grimoires and books of shadows than making friends. By the time he was given a field promotion to centurion at nineteen, he spoke three languages and read a fourth, fluently.

At twenty-two, he met Centurion Lucille Lake of the Fourth Cohort - for dinner. They began dating seriously, and by the time he left the Legion at twenty-three, they were engaged. Shortly after that, Castiel was fast-tracked through joining the military courtesy of some demigods. After his first tour in Iraq, he spent a month home. In that month, Lucille began pregnant with their first child. Unwilling to court death without a solid future for his fiancee and unborn child, Castiel filed paperwork for a legal marriage.

Between his second and third tours, Marcus and Isabella threw an elaborate wedding for their son. Mors visited his son shortly after the wedding with another child. Lucille convinced Castiel to adopt the little boy, adding a second child to their family. They also managed to conceive their second biological child, another daughter.

His third tour was his last, terminating in a gunfight that left Castiel with bullets in three places in his body. Since coming home, he has been in therapy, both physical and emotional. Doctors prescribed him painkillers and anti-depressants in order to stabilize his moods so that he could remain with his wife and children (plus the one on the way). His PTSD would be a lot worse without the support network he has. New Rome treats their veterans a lot better than America does.

For the record, Castiel is ridiculously, embarrassingly in love with his wife. There's a reason they've got two biological children with a third on the way.

Lucretia, the coywolf
American Staffordshire Terrier

---

As a magic user, Castiel has a familiar. He also keeps spirits, though he doesn't tend to collect them. His familiar is a coyote-wolf hybrid (coywolf) named Lucretia. Lucretia is outside the pack hierarchy of the other de Bosco Arso dogs (between the generations, there have seven dogs that answer to the de Bosco Arso family), answering only to Castiel and Lucille.

His spirits include a Sila Djinn and a Marid Djinn, both bound to an amulet.

Jasmine Hyde, played by Amber Riley

---

Born in Germany to a daughter of Rindr, Jasmine spent her first ten years of life on Midgard. Her father's kin took her to Svartlfheim when she was eleven, but a child of Hel brought her back to Midgard by the time she was thirteen. That is how she came to live at Camp Midgard. Since her reintroduction to Midgard, Jasmine has taken up the practice of waist training. She is one of the few - if not the only - Norse demigod who can fight effectively in a full corset.

---

---

As mentioned, Jasmine wears corsets. While many who waist-train wear their corsets upwards of twenty-three hours a day, Jazz is not so extreme. Her corset goes on at seven in the morning, after she wakes up, showers, and does her first set of exercises. It does not come off – except in times of dire need, such as grievous injury – until she returns to her bunk between nine and eleven at night.

Besides the ever-present corset, of which she has a variety, Jazz prefers to wear skirts or jeans. Converse or boots, but rarely are her heels higher than two or three inches.

Alptraum, the nachtkrapp

[/i], they would tell you that it was a giant bird that would snatch up small children and eat them. Their parents might laugh, and tell you that it was a scary story to keep their children in bed at night. Jasmine Hyde, on the other hand, would laugh and summon Alptraum. Alptraum [lit. nightmare] is a large black bird, built like other members of the Corvidae family. Specifically, he resembles the rook, but on a much larger scale. His wingspan is six feet, and each dagger-bright talon is no smaller than five inches long.[/ul]

Roxanne Hannah Neveah Coulson, played by Nicki Minaj

---

Kyra Coulson was the closeted bedwarmer of a rock star in the seventies. She went by the name 'Jenny', and never got the recognition she deserved for inspiring some truly beautiful anthems. By the nineties, Kyra had graduated law school (magna cum laude), and served as a state defense attorney for the state of New York. Tezcatlipoca liked the way she went to bat for her clients, holding the law firm and forcing the state to prove their case to the letter of the law. Kyra defended a gang member while pregnant with Roxanne, and lost. In retaliation, his gang put a price on her head. Between yoga and picking her infant daughter up from daycare, she was ambushed. In the ensuring gunfight, she and four gang members took each other out with guns.

Roxa ended up in the foster system, and here we see the tragic consequence of a poorly executed system. From infancy until her seventh birthday, Roxa was shuffled around from group home to group home. All of her worldly belongings had to fit in a single bag, and everything smelled like cheap soap and garbage bags. When Roxa was seven, she ran away from her foster parents with nothing but the clothes on her back, twenty dollars carefully hoarded, and her name.

She was picked up once for vagrancy, sent to a 'correctional facility' when she was ten to 'straighten out her life'. It took her a grand total of four days to get out of there, and she proceeded to trek from New York to Atlanta, sometimes using public transportation, mostly walking. Yes, it took a while. Mostly because of the monsters. Tezcatlipoca provided his daughter with an obsidian knife by giving her its location in a dream. Roxa went back to New York a year later, just in time for the turtle carrying Camp Cipactli to venture close enough to New York Harbor to send a representative to recruit her.

the Daughters of Triton, the Betta Splendens

Sabor, the Mandalan jaguar (hybrid between a domestic cat and jaguarundi)

Shiloh, the American Alsatian, male

---

It may be surprising to those who know only her cocky, self-assured attitude, but Roxa is a delicate creature. She suffers from what she calls 'sensory ick', where the input from her position overwhelms her. Often, her only sustenance for a day is a single, vegan meal probably consisting of protein powder, peanut butter, and almond milk. She thoroughly enjoys red meat, but blood and ichor have a tendency to put her off her feed. As an Aztec, that means trouble.

Once a month, Roxa is afflicted with a terrible ailment. Every joint aches, the bones in her legs go to lead, and the pain in her abdomen is of such a magnitude that it will make her empty her stomach. Her menstrual period is horrific, dealt with by utilizing heat pads, pain killer, and taking a personal day.
