Atalanta Rue Winters ==>
Moved to Below
First Name: Sky
Last Name: Aura
Age: 16 and a half
Gender: Male
Godly Parent/Ancestor: Son of Jupiter and distant descendant of Victoria (Greek Nike)
Mortal Parent: Sioux Aura
Other Family: His two great-uncles, Wayne and Larry Aura. (Larry's pic: I'M SORRY! I COULDN'T HELP IT!)
Cohort: Was 1st
Rank: Praetor
Number of Years at Camp: 10
Appearance:
Personality: Skye is a serious young man with a moderate sense of humor. He also has a strong sense of honour and justice as shown by his great compassion. He greatly cares for his friends and family willing to risk his life to protect or help them. Though a natural leader, Skye can be plagued by doubt and criticizes himself whenever he makes an error. He has a strong sense of justice and fairness to his friends and is a natural leader. When you first meet him, Skye's fierce loyalty is overwhelming.
History: Skye's mother was dead from cancer and buried before Skye was two months old. He went to live with his great-uncles, Larry and Wayne Aura. They used to be in the army, and delighted Skye with fascinating tales of life in the army. For six years, Skye grew up in their safe home. The most tragic event Skye ever experienced was their death, when they bought him a few minutes to run away from an attacking manticore. (Skye is very fast.) He, after days of running and getting on trains with the little money he had, managed to find Camp Jupiter and stagger over the border, tired and hungry. For three days Skye lay recovering, until (surprise surprise) he woke up when they were doing chariot racing. During the race he was claimed, and found others respect him more and more. He still sometimes wishes he was not a child of Jupiter. When he was fifteen he was made into a praetor and...yes, that's all there is really.
Weapon(s) of Choice: Skye's weapon (and most prized possession) is his Imperial gold sword he got when he became praetor.
Other: He has a crush on his fellow praetor, Atlanta, but he'd never let her know it and tries not to show it.

First Name: Theseus
Last Name: Winters
Age: 15
Godly Parent/Ancestor: Theseus is a son of Pluto and a legacy of Trivia.
Mortal Parent: Isabel Winters: Theseus's mother was a distant descendant, a legacy, of Trivia, but she did not know this. She knew who Pluto was, however. She resented her children. She died in a car accident when Theseus was seven.
Other Family: Atalanta Rue Winters: Theseus's twin sister is praetor of Camp Jupiter. Theseus loves her fiercely. He is the only person who calls her Rue.
Cohort: First Cohort
Rank: centurion, one of the senators
Number of Years at Camp: 6
Appearance: Theseus is lean and wiry and tall, at 5'11. He has short, straight hair that is naturally streaked dark brown and blond. He has the ghostly pale skin of a child of Pluto, and like his sister he has his father's coal black eyes, eyes with the slightest glint of a madman. He has a narrow, angular face and sharply defined features, with high cheekbones, arched eyebrows, a long, straight nose, and a stubborn chin. He looks very much like his twin sister.
Personality: Theseus is a good and loyal friend, friendly, likable, and easygoing. He doesn't get angry or offended easily, but when he does get angry, it's not pretty. He's dangerous, sure, but only to his enemies. He's very intelligent, but he's also got ADHD and dyslexia, and so he sometimes makes unwise decisions. He's reckless, impulsive, and restless, always full of energy. He never stays still for long. He has a great sense of humor, and jokes about everything, even when he may be about to be killed. He seems to take nothing seriously. He never seems to worry about anything. This is not, of course, true, as he does worry and does take things seriously. He just doesn't show it. He is very good at hiding his true feelings. He doesn't confide in many people. He is fiercely loving and loyal, and would willingly sacrifice himself to save those he loves. He doesn't plan ahead but jumps straight into situations. He is a natural leader, although only if the responsibility is forced on him. He doesn't like too much attention, but he's the type of guy who most people like.
History: Theseus has had a hard life, although not nearly as hard as his sister's. After Isabel died and Theseus and Atalanta were sent to different foster homes, Theseus did not see his sister for years, until she turned up at Camp Jupiter. Theseus was sent to a foster home, where he was extremely unhappy, and he ran away, determined to find Atalanta. He wandered aimlessly for miles, until finally he met Pluto. His father sent him to the Wolf House, where Lupa and the wolves trained him, told him what he had to do, and set him on his way. Theseus made it to Camp Jupiter at age nine. He was put into the First Cohort when he proved himself and quickly fit into life there. He was made full legionnaire a few weeks later, when he saved a couple of newcomers from a hellhound as they tried to cross into camp.
Atalanta came to Camp Jupiter when he was thirteen. She had lost her memory, but he remembered her, and tried to convince her he was her brother. She slowly regained her memory. She was put into the Fifth Cohort, but she quickly made her reputation as a powerful demigod, an exceptionally skilled fighter, and a clever strategist. She was made praetor. Soon after, Theseus became centurion. He's been at camp for six years. He loves Camp Jupiter; it is his home.
Weapons of Choice: Theseus fights with a three foot long sword that he named Waymaker. Waymaker's blade is is half imperial gold and half Stygian iron.
http://images.wikia.com/olympians/ima...
Theseus also has a baseball cap that, when he puts it on, renders him virtually invisible. Like his father's Helm of Darkness, it radiates fear and death into his enemies' hearts. Pluto gave Theseus this cap on his twelfth birthday.
Other:
~ Theseus' fatal flaw is personal loyalty. To save a friend he would sacrifice the world.
~ He is left handed.
~ He dislikes heights but is not particularly afraid of them. He just likes being grounded, likely because his father's domain is beneath the earth.

First Name: Atalanta
Middle Name: Rue
Last Name: Winters
Age: 15
Gender: female
Godly Parent/Ancestor: Her father is Pluto. She is also a legacy of Trivia, as well as the goddess's favored one.
Mortal Parent: Isabel Winters: Atalanta's mother, legacy of Trivia, dead
Other Family: Theseus Winters: Atalanta's twin brother also lives in Camp Jupiter. When Atalanta first arrived at Camp Jupiter, her relationship with her brother was awkward and distant after so many years apart, but they've grown close once more, and she loves him fiercely, though she doesn't show it.
Cohort: Fifth
Rank: praetor
Number of Years at Camp: 2 years
Appearance: Atalanta is lean and wiry and very tall, at a height of 5'7. Her skin is ghostly pale, marking her as a daughter of Pluto. She has her father's eyes as well: coal black, dark and unreadable, with the slightest glint of a madman. They have a sad look to them, and appear haunted and sometimes hollow, like those of a hunted animal. Her hair is a glossy dark brown, streaked with lighter brown and blonde, long and straight, and reaches halfway down her back. It is cut in a rather choppy, ragged fashion, because she simply takes her dagger and hacks it shorter when it gets too long. Her dark hair and eyes stand out against her pale skin. She has planed features, a narrow, angular face, with high cheekbones, arching eyebrows over piercing dark eyes, a stubborn chin. She's very slender, and this causes her to appear even taller. She's very, very thin, sometimes appearing almost fragile, as though you could grab her and snap her in half. But this assumption couldn't be farther from the truth. She is surprisingly strong. She moves with an unconscious grace, and is very fast and light on her feet. She has long limbs, slender hands with long, thin fingers, and relatively small feet. On her arm she has the tattoo: one stripe, the SPQR, and the symbol of Pluto. She always wears practical clothing, clothing she can fight in. She does not wear flashy clothes, usually sticking to black, and she wears no makeup or jewelry.
(view spoiler)
Personality: Emotionally, and physically as well, Atalanta is remarkably strong. Determined and stubborn, she never gives up once she's set her mind to something. She never complains. When she does something, she makes sure she does it well. She is fierce and proud, and she is not somebody who people want to mess with. She isn't very cautious and does not plan ahead, but jumps straight into the action. She has a knack for coming up with wildly dangerous, reckless, crazy plans right in the middle of sticky situations, and her plans somehow end up working. She is very quick witted, clever and incredibly hard to fool. Because of her difficult life, she remains constantly alert, constantly on her guard. She has an extremely sharp tongue and a fiery temper that she keeps under careful control. She does not get angry or offended often, and it takes a lot to make her lose her cool. But when she does get angry, she gets really angry. Her fatal flaw is holding grudges, and she does not forgive and forget easily. She hardly ever forgets anything, and though it may not seems so, she notices even the minutest details. She's cynical, and has an attitude that often gets her in trouble, a bad habit of making bad situations worse with her sarcastic jokes, her snarky, mocking remarks and her uncooperativeness, especially with figures of authority. She has a dry, sarcastic sense of humor, and often jokes about life-and-death situations. Very practical and realistic, she spends no time on superficial things. She does not care about how she looks, and spends practically no time on her appearance. She's usually got other things to worry about. She doesn't care what others think of her, and does not put effort into pleasing or impressing others. She's very good at hiding her emotions, and maintains an impenetrable mask behind which she buries her thoughts and her feelings. She hardly gives away anything about herself. She does not smile often, and almost never laughs. She does not do well with emotions, and isn't very tactful. She's blunt and may come off as rude, although she's not purposefully rude or unfriendly. Despite this, she's very good at reading others, analyzing people and situations. She follows no one. She is fiercely independent, does not take well to being told what to do, and loathes being bossed around. She is a natural leader, although she really has no wish to lead. The responsibility was given to her by others, so she took it up, and she does her job well. She is not the type of person who becomes immediately popular the minute she walks into a room. She does not have a lot of friends, but she does command a certain amount of respect. She doesn't love or trust easily. However, to those few who have won her love and trust, she is fiercely loving and loyal. She is the best friend a person can have, and the worst enemy a person can make. She would never betray a friend, and would sacrifice herself to save those she loves. She is undeniably brave. She would rather die fighting than surrender. She's the type of person who laughs in the face of danger, even in the face of death. She likes the thrill of danger, of a little risk, and at times she's reckless and impulsive. She is ADHD, after all. She's restless, always in motion, never completely still. She likes being on the move, likes action. Staying in one place for very long, doing nothing, would drive her crazy. She lies smoothly and easily, and very believably. If she puts in the effort, she can be very charming and persuasive. Not words people usually use to describe her. In other words, Atalanta can lie like a rug, and its gotten her out of trouble countless times. Unlike her father, however, Atalanta has a strong sense of right and wrong. She always tries to do what's right. She's loyal to the Olympians. At times she's an outcast, and as her father warned her, she never really belongs. But in a fight to the death she's in her element, definitely somebody you want on your side. She seems practically fearless, although of course in truth she isn't. She has her fears, like every other person. But she faces her fears instead of hiding from them and she attempts to overcome them. She does not break under pressure. She's tough, Atalanta is. Difficult to take down.
History: Atalanta was born to Isabel Winters three hours after her twin brother, Theseus, a fact he would hold over her countless times in later years. Their father was Pluto, Roman god of wealth and of the dead, ruler of the Underworld. But that wasn't all. Their mother, Isabel, was a descendant of the goddess Trivia, but she didn't know this. Isabel was not very kind or loving. She blamed Pluto for destroying her life and took her anger and frustration out on her children. Atalanta and Theseus always knew that they were demigod children of Pluto, as Isabel had never hidden that from them, but they didn't fully understand at that age what it meant. They were powerful demigods, and so they were constantly plagued by monsters. Somehow, they survived, maybe because they had each other to watch their backs. When they was seven, Isabel died in a car accident. Atalanta and Theseus escaped with minor injuries. They were sent to an adoption center. Atalanta didn't see her brother again for years. She was sent to a series of foster homes, and she would hang around for a while before running away. When she was eight, she met her father in a dream. He led her to the Bay Area, where she found the Stygian iron dagger that he had kept hidden there for her to find. When she was nine, Atalanta met a twelve-year-old demigod, a son of Mercury named Lex. They decided to stick together, and traveled together for a time. Soon after, Pluto summoned her to the Underworld to carry out a task: Atalanta was to retrieve Pluto's staff, which had been stolen. When, with Lex's help, she succeeded at the task, Pluto rewarded her with the mirrored shield. He told her there was a place for demigods where they would be safe, but warned her that she, a child of Pluto, would never belong. He told her to stay in the Underworld instead. A few months later, Lex and Atalanta stumbled into a Cyclopes' lair. Lex was killed, but Atalanta managed to escape. She was devastated. She began spending more and more time in the Underworld, although she couldn't really stay with her father, because his immortal wife hated Atalanta. When Atalanta was thirteen, Trivia visited Atalanta and told her that because Atalanta was both a child of Pluto and a descendant of Trivia, the goddess had chosen Atalanta as her favored one. Trivia decreed that Atalanta would be the one to make Trivia's name great once more, after the Second Titan War during which Trivia had sided with the Titans. Atalanta saw this as more of a curse than a blessing. Trivia sent her to the wolf house, where Lupa and the rest of the wolves found her. She was trained by the wolves, then sent to battle her way to Camp Jupiter. She crossed the Little Tiber into Camp Jupiter and collapsed. She was unconscious for two weeks. When she finally awoke she remembered nothing about who she was or where she'd come from. All she remembered was her name. Trivia appeared to the Romans, announced that Atalanta was a daughter of Pluto, as well as a legacy and the favored one of Trivia herself, leaving the Romans with no choice but to accept her. Because Atalanta knew nothing of her past, the Romans were reluctant to accept her, and they assumed she was pretty much useless. The fact that she was a daughter of Pluto served to make her even more of an outsider, and she was put into the disgraced Fifth Cohort. Atalanta quickly proved herself to be a strong fighter and an intelligent strategist as well as a powerful demigod. She helped improve the reputation of the Fifth Cohort. She slowly regained all her memory. When Atalanta was fourteen, she returned victorious from a quest in time to lead the camp to victory against an invading army, and she was made praetor. She's been praetor for about a year. Although at first Atalanta felt ill at ease at Camp Jupiter, and did not feel want her job as praetor, she's accepted it and grown to love the camp.
Weapons of Choice: Atalanta fights with a midnight black dagger, forged from Stygian iron, with a blade that is about nineteen inches long. Only children of Pluto can safely use Stygian iron. Atalanta's dagger has the power to inflict terror in the heart of her enemies, and it aids her when she tries to summon spirits. Atalanta has kept the dagger with her ever since her father led her to it, and she is very skilled with it. She also has a ring, a very thin silver band, and etched on it in black lettering are these words in Latin: Atalanta Rue Winters, daughter of Pluto, ruler of the Underworld. The ring transforms into a silver-black mirrored shield that, on her command, will show her different images, events, places, people, whatever. She always wears it on the index finger of her right hand.
Other: Atalanta is left handed and her favorite color is royal blue. She's in love with Skye and has been in love with him ever since she first met him, although she's never told him how she feels. She is an amazing fighter, one of the best at Camp Jupiter, and it is widely known that she is nearly impossible to defeat, that she hasn't lost a fight in years. She radiates a certain sense of fear and death, like her father, although to a smaller degree. Her close friends are usually not bothered by this, because it happens only when she's angry. She has a black Pegasus named Raven.

She's been praetor for about a year. Although at first Atalanta felt ill at ease at Camp Jupiter, and did not feel want her job as praetor, she's accepted it and grown to love the camp.
Weapons of Choice: Atalanta fights with a midnight black dagger, forged from Stygian iron, with a blade that is about nineteen inches long. Only children of Pluto can safely use Stygian iron. Atalanta's dagger has the power to inflict terror in the heart of her enemies, and it aids her when she tries to summon spirits. Atalanta has kept the dagger with her ever since her father led her to it, and she is very skilled with it. She also has a ring, a very thin silver band, and etched on it in black lettering are these words in Latin: Atalanta Rue Winters, daughter of Pluto, ruler of the Underworld. The ring transforms into a silver-black mirrored shield that, on her command, will show her different images, events, places, people, whatever. She always wears it on the index finger of her right hand.
Other: Atalanta is left handed and her favorite color is royal blue. She's in love with Skye and has been in love with him ever since she first met him, although she's never told him how she feels. She is an amazing fighter, one of the best at Camp Jupiter, and it is widely known that she is nearly impossible to defeat, that she hasn't lost a fight in years. She radiates a certain sense of fear and death, like her father, although to a smaller degree. Her close friends are usually not bothered by this, because it happens only when she's angry. She has a black Pegasus named Raven.

Hunter Delacruz ==> Moved to Below
Asmaa, is it possible to leave the augur for someone else? I mean, I'm sorry, but you already have the female praetor, so...I'm sorry, I really am.
No problem, thanks for letting me know, though. I'll just make her a regular officer.
First Name: Aaron
Middle Name: Jacob
Last Name: Onyx
Age: 21
Gender: Male
Godly Parent/Ancestor: He is a son of Mars and a grandson of Pluto directly, but he has many gods in his family tree - Apollo, Vulcan, Venus and Bellona to name but a few. He also has a complicated web of Greek and Roman gods, and is a direct descendant of Hippolyta, Circe and Hercules.
Mortal Parent: Purity Onyx
Other Family: As far as he knows, his only other living relative is his younger-by-six-years sister Amelia Onyx, who is an important person to the legion like himself.
Cohort: 1st
Rank: Standard Bearer for the Cohort
Number of Years at Camp: 21
Appearance:
There must be some Greek blood in this kid, people say when they first see Aaron, and it's probably true. He has the right features to be Greek, with his black hair as dark as the depths of a pit and green eyes like the forests. He's built in a muscular, athletic, strong way that marks him as a son of Mars ("Or Ares," some say) and makes sports like rugby simple for him. He is dressed often in black and red, and violent colors as such.
Personality: Aaron developed a love of violence as a teenager that surpassed that of any other half-blood, which made him perfect a son of war. It also made him unpopular among his fellow demigods who despised him for his overt love of war regardless of reason to fight. Despite this he was given access to Camp Jupiter because of his ancestry full of gods and goddesses. He was taught by his mother to dance and fight. As the son of the god of War, Aaron would lend strength to whatever side he favoured, but was known to be somewhat fickle and change sides in the middle of a battle if his side was losing. He is aloof, cruel, proud, rebellious, and violent; an easily angered bully who loves to pick fights for no apparent reason. He has a large gang of people who join him for the control over others or just because they don't want to be bullied themselves. He is a capable strategist but his temper makes him tend to focus on strength and his arrogance leads him to underestimate his opponents, allowing clever fighters to get the better of him. He hates being called a coward, and the only people he softens to are his mother and his sister.
History: The only thing Aaron and his sister have ever known is Camp Jupiter; war training, barracks and New Rome, where they went in their free time as children to see their mother. Their mother, Purity, had two children with two different gods, Mars was Aaron's father and Amelia's father was unknown until she turned 12. (Turned out it was Cupid, to Aaron's dismay.) Nevertheless Aaron still considers Amelia his full sister and helped her when she was falling behind in things such as sword fighting. He's grown bitter and more estranged from his family and violent after he moved to the 1st Cohort. (Amelia is still in the 5th Cohort.)
Weapon of Choice: As a son of Mars, Aaron has the capability to use any weapon he wants, but as 'bows are for sissies' and 'knives are for nerds like Bellona's kids' he usually uses his gold sword, which he named Romulus scriptor Legatum (Romulus's Legacy) after his legendary half-blood who supposedly founded Rome.

He. Is. AMAZING! Actually, I've been working on a child of Mars, so they'll be half-siblings.
Ha...how about he's like a rival for Skye and Atalanta? And I was thinking...do you want Skye and Theseus to be friends as well?
First Name: Amelia
Middle Name: Liesel
Last Name: Onyx
Age: 15
Gender: Female
Godly Parent/Ancestor: Daughter of Cupid, god of desire, infatuation, attraction and affection, Roman form of Eros and commonly pictured as son of Venus. Descended from Discordia (Greek form is Eris, goddess of chaos and strife), Venus and Nox (Nyx).
Mortal Parent: Purity Onyx
Other Family: Her half-brother Aaron, primary bully at Camp Jupiter and rival of Skye Aura. Six years older than her and they don't really get along as of this moment in time.
Cohort: 5th
Rank: Centurion in camp, but also one of the Senators
Number of Years at Camp: 15
Appearance:
Amelia, who looks a couple of years older than she is, is on the pretty side. She has long brown hair that falls to her elbows and almond-shaped hazel eyes, arched eyebrows and features that stand out.
Personality: Amelia is probably one of the nicest people you will ever meet. She is very friendly and sweet, a really nice person, and she finds it impossible to hate anyone as she is just too nice. She is quite intelligent too, but not that smart. Very compassionate and always leaping to welcome first years. She's fiercely loyal and will not fear anything if it means she can save people she is loyal to. You don't need to worry about her not repaying a debt; she will never leave it open and will repay it as soon as possibles. Her family and friends are more important to her than anything else, and while she is noble and brave, her inner nature always breaks through and she is one of the nicest girls in Camp Jupiter. She is great with both the animals and the younger children at camp, and is famous for bringing the shy ones out of their bubbles and befriending them. She cares more about the well-being of others, her friends mainly, than maybe even herself. She is a little crafty though.
History: See Aaron's profile.
Weapon of Choice: A bow and arrow, made of Imperial gold, an exact copy of Cupid's weapon. She calls it Love's Bow.
Other: She can feel people's love for each other.

Sure. Does he want to become praetor?
Oh and how good is he in a fight?

1) He wants to be praetor desperately and thinks he can do better than Atalanta or Skye.
2) He's very good in a fight, but he underestimates his opponents so good clever strategists (like Annabeth :D) can beat him. I think both the praetors are clever fighters.

Cool. So he wants to get rid of one or both of the praetors and take their place. Like Octavian, huh?
So is it okay if Atalanta has beaten him before in a fight and that's another reason why he hates her?

There are only two centurions per cohort.
First Name: Hunter
Last Name: Delacruz
Age: 15
Gender: female
Godly Parent/Ancestor: Mars, Vulcan, Mercury
Mortal Parent: Marina Delacruz: Hunter's mother was a demigod daughter of Vulcan and descendant of Mercury. Though Marina's mother, Catalina Delacruz, was a demigod who herself had been at Camp Jupiter once, she died when Marina was one. As a result, Marina lived her life as one of those rare demigods who never learn their true identity. Marina was a sharpshooter in the US army, where she met Mars. When Hunter was seven years old, she accidentally caused a fire and Marina was killed.
Other Family: Hunter has no living family that she is aware of, although she may or may not have have extended family in New Rome.
Cohort: 5th Cohort
Rank: messenger, one of the senators
Number of Years at Camp: 3
Appearance: http://data.whicdn.com/images/3036860...
Hunter is lean and wiry, quick and agile, standing at a height of 5'5". She is stronger than she appears, just inherently so given her parentage, but still she relies more on her speed and cleverness. She has ivory skin and eyes of a shaded forest green. Her hair is a rich dark red, thick and curly, and falls nearly to her waist. On her arm she has the SPQR tattoo and three stripes, for her three years as a full member of the legion. Hunter is beautiful, unexpectedly so for a child of the war god. With her fiery red hair, her laughing green eyes, and her wicked smile, Hunter is often mistaken for a child of Venus or Mercury.
Personality: Hunter Delacruz is always full of energy, wit, and laughter. She is vibrant with life, and has a wild, untamed sense of bravado and fiery spirit to her that make her a person others love. She has a great sense of humor and always knows how to lighten the mood. She can always break awkward moments with her energy and cheer up a person who's feeling down. She laughs easily, cracks jokes all the time, and though she isn't at all an attention seeker, she ends up being the center of attention anyway. She's the type of girl who can light up a room with her presence, who can make others love her with just a smile. She is cocky and confident, incredibly brave as well as often reckless and impulsive. She is resilient and bold, difficult to crack. She's stubborn, and doesn't give up easily. She's very intelligent, more than people give her credit for.
Hunter is well suited to her job as messenger of the legion. She loves her job. Sure, it gets her a high rank in Camp Jupiter and gets her exempt from the grunt work that every other camper hates but still has to do. But that's not the only reason. Hunter is extremely restless and always on the move, giving the sense that an endless amount of energy and life is contained within her, barely held back. She can never stay still for long. Her hands are always busy, usually tinkering with some contraption or the other. Her combined ancestry of Mercury and Vulcan served to give her uncanny skill with her hands. She is a skilled thief and excellent with any type of tool or machinery.
This is Hunter as she appears to be, as she is most of the time. Hidden within her is a side to Hunter that she doesn't let others see. She's had a hard life, like so many other demigods, but she buries her sadness deep inside her. She may seem light-hearted and cheerful, as though she doesn't have a care in the world, but that's a wall she's built up around herself. She learned early on that cracking jokes and acting the clown helps to hide the pain. She seems as though she never feels out of place, but in truth Hunter is completely comfortable nowhere. She is a traveler, and happiest when on the road.
History: Hunter's mother, Marina Delacruz, was a sharpshooter in the U.S. army, where she met Mars. Marina was a kind and loving mother, and she and Hunter were very close. The only thing she refused to explain to Hunter was the identity of her father. When Hunter was eight years old, there was an accident. Hunter panicked and her fire powers spun out of control. Marina died in the resulting fire. Nobody but Hunter knows how the fire started, but Hunter knows its her fault and it has haunted her since that day. Marina left practically nothing behind. Hunter went through various foster homes. She never fit in at any of the foster homes she was sent to. She had severe ADHD and dyslexia, and trouble seemed to follow her. She always ended up either being sent back or just running away. She met her father, Mars, although he was disguised and she didn't know who he was at the time. He gave her an enchanted knife of imperial gold and later when she was twelve, he guided her to Lupa when she was twelve, and then she was sent to Camp Jupiter. She was accepted into the Fifth Cohort upon reaching camp safely. Soon after, a pair of hellhounds attacked a group of small children in New Rome. Hunter fought the hellhounds and killed them both, performing her act of valor and earning full status as a member of the legion. She was given the job of messenger when the previous messenger died. Later she became a senator as well. Days after she became one of the senators, she was claimed by none other than Mars Ultor, much to everyone's surprise. Nobody, not even Hunter herself, had expected her to be claimed by the war god.
Weapons of Choice: Being the daughter of the war god, Hunter can fight well with any weapon. She prefers to fight with knives, however, and always keeps multiple knives with her. She has excellent aim, especially with throwing knives. Her main weapon is her celestial bronze knife. It transforms into the gold knife charm on her bracelet. It always returns to her bracelet. It was given to her by Mars.
Other:
~ Hunter has been on three quests.
~ She has severe dyslexia as well as severe ADHD. This gives her amazing battle reflexes and an innate understanding of Latin.
~ Hunter is a rare fire user, a power passed down to her from Vulcan. She keeps this a secret.
~ Hunter is a very fast runner. Her love of running is the reason she was chosen for the job of messenger.
~ Hunter's constant loyal companion is Phantom, a huge midnight black wolf-dog. Phantom has been with Hunter since she was eight. He is fiercely loyal to her and she loves him very much. (view spoiler)
~ Hunter has one possession that her mother left behind for her, and that is her bracelet. It is her most prized possession and she always wears it. The bracelet was actually given to Marina by Mars, and then before she died Marina gave it to Hunter. The bracelet is made of silver. (view spoiler) The bracelet has the oddest assortment of charms on it. One of them, the silver howling wolf charm, was the only one that was originally a part of the bracelet. It was given to Marina by Mars as part of the bracelet. The wolf is the sacred animal of Mars. (view spoiler) The third charm is a small golden pocketknife. It transforms into Hunter's imperial gold knife. Hunter uses it to pick locks as well. (view spoiler) The fourth and last object on Hunter's bracelet isn't a charm at all. It is a thin blue whistle. She sometimes plays a certain tune on it to call Phantom to her side. (view spoiler)
