He has never gotten married, and sometimes Heavenly thinks he's still stuck on Demeter or is just to revolved around work (He has a rather successful lawn care business) and Heavenly. She's never been on a quest.
Up for love: Sure
Other: She's a vegetarian - she's trying to be a vegan, but it can be very hard.
Name: Alex Freemon Age: 15 Parents: Apollo. Her mom is an artist in Chicago. She remarried to Kevin Freemon, a nice man who works in the theater. Appearance: Alex is 5'5. She spends a lot of time in the sun, so she's fairly tan. She has a sprinkle of freckles under her yellow/brown eyes. She was blond as a baby, but now it's grown out as brown. When in the sun, it reflex a golden-honey color on the edges. She wears bright clothing, and is never without a colorful head band. She has, like, ten different pairs of funky-colored Converse that she wears. Some of her converse: Spoiler
Personality: Alex is bright and cheery. She laughs a lot, is nice to everybody (even when they're really annoying and she doesn't want to), and has a lot of friends. But she's a bit of a show off. Even though she's really sweet most of the time, she's really big on revenge. Other Personalities: Alex loves the sun, bright colors, fire, sunflower seeds, her tie-die stuffed animal mouse, skate boards, her orange iPod that she's never without, Converse, and mice (yes, I said mice. It's one of her dad's symbolic animals). But she doesn't like the dark, the water, and snakes. She's really good at archery, she can notch three arrows at once and be accurate almost every time. She's really creative and is good at art, acting, and music. She's an amazing dancer. However, she's terrified of water and can't swim very well, and sword fighting isn't really her thing. Brief History: Her mom remarried when she was only one year old, so she always thought Kevin was her real father. It was hard when she found out that he wasn't. She came to camp when she was 12, so she's been here for 3 years. She got a quest only two weeks after she came to camp. She went with Nick and their satyr. The quest was in the sea of monsters; she had a bad experience there (that's one of the reasons why she doesn't like water). Up for love: Yep! Other: Nick is one of her best friends. Like most Apollo kids, she has a quiver that returns all the arrows that she shoots. Like Percy's sword returns to him, the arrows return to the quiver. *********************************************************************************************************************************************

Because his mom is gone on airplanes a lot, he stays at Alex's house most of the time. Appearance: Wild blond hair. Green eyes. Mischievous smile, dark eyebrows. Just like the pic, except more of a dirtier, messy look. Not as clean and perfect. He wears ripped up jeans and old T-shirts. Spoiler
Personality: Mischievous and sneaky. He's the master mind of trouble and can plot any sort of scheme. He likes to joke around, and sarcasm is like a second language. But he's a good leader and can be serious. He's really protective of people put under his care, especially Alex. Other Personalities: He likes money, heights, Alex (like a sister), challenges, and traveling. He doesn't like people who are serious all the time, boredom, and clean spaces (just like some people can't work in clutter, he can't work in absolute order). He's really good at sneaking, lying and theft. And he's an amazing runner, and really good at swords. But he can't aim for the life of him; so naturally he's not good at bow and arrows. And another thing, he doesn't have any taste buds (I know, it's weird, but I figured it'd put twist to things). Brief History: His mom, Susan, met Hermes when he happened to be in town (delivering a package of coarse) and he caught her stealing something. They fell in love and dated for a few years. One time, Susan's sister (Alex's mom) joined them on one of their dates. Hermes found out and brought Apollo along. So that's how Apollo and Alex's mom met. Nick has been going to camp ever sense he was 12, so he's been here for five years. He's been on one quest, with Alex. Up for love: Yep. Other: He's the cabin councilor.
Age: 16 Parents: Dionysus and Maddie Smith. His mom works at a club. Appearance: Long, crazy, dark brown hair that has purple steaks. Brown eyes. 5'8". He has a ear pierce in his left ear. Spoiler

He talks like a gangsta ( ) and he loves parties, that's probably the only time that you'll see him get excited. Other Personality: Likes~ Purple. Grapes. Gatorade, he always has one on him. Parties! His ring, http://media.comicvine.com/uploads/5/53 ... _super.jpg it can turn into a shield. Dislikes~ Loud people. Not having three meals a day. Winter. People who worry to much. Singing, even though he's amazing at it. Strenghts~ Strength. Singing,he has an amazing voice, but he doesn't like to sing and he never does. He can dance hip-hop and rap. Being picked on/messed with; really, don't get on his bad side. Weaknesses~ He's not really strong on any weapon, he's just kinda average on the sword and bow and arrow and really any weapon. Using the right words. Expressing his feelings. Brief History: He's been going to camp for four years, and he stays year-round. He hasn't been on a quest yet. Other He can control fruit vines. ***********************************************************************************************************
Name: Tristen Vine Age: 36, but he looks/acts like an 18 year old. Apearance: Curly brown hair that covers his goat horns. Brown eyes. Like pic but he has a little bit of a go-T, (and modern day clothes) Spoiler
And this hat.
Personality: Tristen is impatient and hates waiting for anything. He's a very positive thinker, but most of it is just an act to cheer up the people surrounding him. He's very self-conscious. Tristen loves his campers and is so very proud of all of them; he's always there for them. He likes tin cans, volleyball, his campers, and strawberries (he usually can't help himself from eating the strawberries that the camp grows. So he usually gets in trouble for this). He's an amazing volleyball player, and has actually led teams to state. Campers: Savannah Victoria, Nick Jensen, Alex Freemon, Taylor Jones, Diago Smith, Ani James, Aura McCormik, and Kassie White. (Hope this is ok by you guys).

Why is a raven like a writing desk?
You aren't an official writer unless you're at least slightly mad.
Name: Katherine Crosset Age: fifteen Parents: Allina Crosset and Greek God Poseidon Appearance: Katherine sports long, straight brown hair, dark grey eyes with light flecks of blue. She has a sharp angular face with a straight and sculpted nose, her eyes are slanted and cat-like from what little she gets of her asian heritage. Her hair is always tied into a bun or left down to hang at her back. Personality: Katherine is quick witted and is stubborn. Her short-temper is always a threat as she is probably near the most advanced of the campers. She is not shy, is outgoing and is not afraid to speak her mind. Description: As one of the most advanced of the campers this young girl is prone to using strange tactics with her power, she and her short-temper are a danger to others but with great restraint she is known to hold back. Near the beginning of her time here, she had become resentful of her powers and dispised having to be enclosed in a camp-ground. Katherine has warmed but a little to the unusual surroundings and enjoys spending her time on the lake's shoreline, speaking with horses and practicing her power. Likes: Katherine likes moonlit walks, well planned battles, showing off, respectable friends and a good sword fight when there's time. Dislikes: this girl dislikes bright sun, clumsy battling, sore losers, rude and uncaring people and sitting about with nothing to do. History: Katherine was given up for adoption by her mother Annalina at the age of three and knows only of her mother's name. She was first discovered by thr monsters a month later when she had mistakeably created a serpent of water because she wanted to teach an orphan boy a lesson. She had been forced to run when the nuns caring for her had turned their backs. When she arrived at the camp and discovered the true nature of both her father and herself she cursed thr gods for their insensitivity and their causing her life to become even worse. She has been at the camp for twelve years and though she is still holding a grudge she bears it better with the knowledge that she is skilled and unbeaten. Up for love: Of course.
(I might've missed something but hope that's ok. Ipod's are hard to use sometimes.
Hey guys this is amazing! Thanks for posting a satyr, Dragonette. I think we might want a few more guys though... Yes, PeterHerronGunner we are most definitley still accepting! Anyway, I'll start the storybook tonight or tommorow with my first post! So excited!
Oh and can everyone check the cabins page on the first page to make sure I have everyone's charecters? This is my first storybook *Blushes at newbiness* and I want to make sure I have it right!
I have loved the words and I have hated them. I only hope I have made them right.
That's ok Dragonette! I can't post Mondays or Wensdays usually. B-ball games. Starting! Yeah!
Aura McCormik ~ Aphrodite .Monday.
I yawn, stretching on my feather bed. Pushing myself up I notice a sleeping Bella and Aetos. Thank goodness for my lazy step siblings. I get up and head over to the bathroom. I feel so bad for those poor Apollo girls. All of their siblings up with the sun. How do they ever fight over that one bathroom? Us Aphrodite kids are the smartest. Two bathrooms, enough make-up to fill a department store. THAT'S the way to live. Plus getting up like I was still on my dad's racecar schedule may help. Sighing, I lay my mascara on lightly and purse my lips, laying on the cherry lipgloss. I slather on my honey scented lotion just like I did everyday. Slipping off my nightgown, I pull on my ripped shorts (why did I buy those?) and white tanktop. I look myself in the mirror, frown, debate it, and decide I looked ok. I tiptoe out of the cabin, not wanting to get beat on by the late sleepers. I watch as Aetos stirs and Bella mutters in her sleep. Aphrodite kids usually slept latest, besides the Hypnos kids. God of sleep. I'd never understand them. Stop it. I was being shallow again, just like everyone expected me to be. I walk into the hot summer air, glad I was wearing my white tank top. I watch as the Apollo kids play basketball ( Why are they so good at everything?) and two Demeter kids mess with their shots. The sun glazes my eyes over and I blink rapidly. I wonder who's hair could have done that? I walk over toward the direction of my blindness, smiling.
" Tune down the shine a little can you?"
Spirit looks up, briefly smiles and meets me halfway. We had become friends over the last year or so, mainly after Spirit had lost her little sister. Poor thing. I thought my life was bad. I never talked to her before, her being a sneaky Hermes child after all. After that ,however, I talked to her and turns out she was pretty cool. Didn't judge me either, so I didn't have to claw her eyes out. No, Spirit was to nice for that. Was to nice for anything but being nice.
"Don't you wish?"
She gives me one of those Spirit grins, the kind that makes you HAVE to smile back. So, of course, I smile back at her, not looking right at her. Not because I don't want to, Spirit's really pretty n'all, it's just hard looking right at Spirit on a sunny days, her hair was just so light that it reflects the sun straight into your eyes. Sometimes, I was totally jealous of her hair, but I had to have the Irish genes. Not the all-American genes like Spirit or even the Italian genes like my step sister Bella. Nope, I got the Potato-famine-so-we-all-move-to-America-and-make-Auburn-haired-children genes. Or something like that.
"Excuse me Spirit I think I might have to get my sunglasses. Their's a 100% chance that I'm about to be blinded."
She laughs and I smile. This is probaly why we were friends. Spirit just makes you feel good about yourself. I hear my stomach growl and frown down at it.
"Hungry?"
"Oh yeah, I haven't eaten for like ever."
"It was rude of Mr. D to keep us locked up for dinner wasn't it?"
I give her a playful glare," Ironically, it was because you stole some food from the kitchen."
She shrugs, a michevious smile on her face, and I watch as campers from each cabin pile out, slowly. We still had at least an hour before breakfast and most kids were sleeping or messing around. It was a normal day at camp, the chariot races to prepare for on Thursday yet something felt eerily wrong. Oh well. I shrug it off, dismissing it to my imagination. Spirit and I sit down near the basketball court, watching the Apollo kids burn on the other challengers. Spirits eyes wander off and she get's up, distracted.
"Bye Aura. I have some stuff to...do."
She walks away in the direction of the cabins and I shrug, feeling slightly abonanded. Spirit was dreamy I give her that. anyway, she usually did have stuff to do, with all the trouble the Hermes kids get into. I watch the game for a small time, feeling bored, when I hear my name.
Can be anyone!
I have loved the words and I have hated them. I only hope I have made them right.
It was the sun that streamed through the cracked blinds that woke me up. The dim light shone on the partially clean room and I grinned. The Aphrodite kids would throw a fit if they saw this. I turned my head, still in bed, and looked at the glass of water next to my bed. Good idea, my mind said as I sluggishly rolled out of bed and slipped my already socked feet into my boots. I reached out and grabbed a tank top and looked down at my ratty shorts before shrugging. I tied my hair into a tight knot and walked across the room. My cabinmates were still sleeping and I was careful not to wake them as I pushd open the door and walking out into the brightly lit morning. I looked around the camp wasn't entirely in motion so I wouldn't have to worry about chores until later. My eyes landed on an Aphrodite girl, Aura. "Hey Aura!" I hollered with a smile, not at all concerned of my outfit.
To fly away on gossamer wings, sheer as night's reflective glow, I would could I cradle child hecate to my breast.
"Five more minutes! I don't wanna..." She falls back asleep mid-sentence. I lay back down, sinking into the bed. I can't fall back asleep, so I decide to get up and get ready for the day. I pull off the warm covers and sit up in my boxers. I stretch, yawn, and head towards the bathroom. I put on some manly smelling deodorant, aftershave, and carefully apply some hair gel. I throw on my cargo shorts and and a thin green t-shirt. I put on my Nike high tops, check myself over in the mirror and head out for breakfast.
Savannah Victoria runs in front of me, in a hurry to get to breakfast I assume.
"Hey Savannah! Long time no see!" She rolls her eyes at me and keeps running. Her loss. I keep walking until I see the Apollo kids playing basketball. I'm just about to jump in the game when I remember. I don't want to get sweaty today. There's a bunch of new girls, and I don't want to be the sweaty guy. I sit down on the green grass and watch.

Dang, it was hot out today. I yawn, stretching my arms out and looking around. Even though I'd been back for nearly a year now the camp still shocked me. The girls, the cabins... Just everything honestly was shocking. I feel a whisper of wind down my back and it feels good. I walk around, wondering what to do. Maybe I should just go back to bed...No single person came to mind to go talk to. I seemed to make enemies rather quickly but really, there were so many people that could just annoy the crap out of you. People so full of themselves they couldn't see past there own greed. Not like I was anything like that. I knew some people sure: Alex Freemon, who I liked when I first came to camp, Katherine Crosset, my step-sibling Diago...: the list seemed a bit short. Oh well. I was to tired to think. Plus at breakfast I'd have to face my dad. THAT was never a pleasant meeting. I'd get the "big dissapointment" speech again. Oh well. I'm so caught up in my thoughts that I don't notice someone getting closer, absorbed in their own thoughts. Suddenly THWACK!
Another oppurnutity for someone to get it... *Clears throat.* Anyone?
I have loved the words and I have hated them. I only hope I have made them right.
I dribbled the ball back and forth in front of me, teasing my defender. Suddenly I sprinted forward and swooped the ball over the other team's head and and chucked it at Castor. He jumped up to intercept the ball, but the other team swiped at it and it bounced off their fingers and flew out of bounds...and right at Daemond, smacking him in the face. I rushed over to him, smiling. "You ok?"
He held his hand over his eye, "Yep, just got punched in the face with a basket ball, I'm perfectly fine." He straightened and shook out his black hair.
I laughed, but then I saw his eye, which was turning black. "Hey, wanna come with me to get some ice? It's looks kinda bad."
I brushed my hands together, "All in a good night's work." I had just come back from plastering makeup on some of the Ares kids while they were asleep. It was a job that I was paid to do. The Aphrodite boys had gotten tired of the Ares guys picking on them, so they called me up and paid a few dracmaes for a good prank. And I gave them a good prank. The good news was, the Ares would asume it was Aphrodite because of the make up, so I would get away with it.
I flipped a coin; paid and getting away with it, I love the way my brain works!
Suddenly I heard footsteps coming from somewhere on the trail behind me. I spun around quickly to see who it was. "Keep you jets cool, it's just me." Kassie said walking up to me. I started walking again, she kept pace with me and folded her hands behind her back. Over the past year me and Kassie had become really good friends and we hung out a lot.
"So what have you been up to?" I asked.
"I think the question is, what have you been up to? I know that look, Nick."
I smiled, we knew each other so well. "Pranking on Ares."
"Hmm, Ares, dangerous business. Let me guessed, you covered up your name and made it look like somebody else?"
"Yep." It was almost like we could read each other. It was so easy talking with her, it felt so comfortable.
We walked in silence for awhile. When we broke out of the cabin area, we looked at each other, mischievous grins plastered on our faces. We kinda had this tradition, racing each other on random occasions.
"I'll go easy on you." I smirked, but it was only teasing, she didn't need a head start to win.
"Or you could pray to the gods that you don't get your butt whipped...again." Which also wasn't true, I almost always won.
We crouched, "Ready. Set."
"Go!" She yelled quickly and sprinted off.
"Cheater!" I called and raced after her.
