So I'm assuming this takes place after HoO?

Hm, definitely after the first series so probably

Well, I was going to make my kid a child of Asclepius bc I wanted a healer character, but alas, the man got struck down by Zeus.

(hey, I have an OC that's a son of Gaia, can I use him or no?)

Uh, I'd wait for Whisper to come back. I'd say go ahead but make sure not to make him overpowered, but since both me and Whisp are running this, I'd like to wait for them to approve :)

A son of Gaia would be amazing! Just yeah, not overpowered please!

Gimme a moment, sorry.

Ok! Thanks MJ!

Oh thanks!

Name: Ethan James Frost
Age: 16
Gender: Male
Sexuality: He doesn't really know? Pan, most likely
Godly Parent: Gaia
Weapon(s): Sword, usually. Hand and a half size hilt, blade is made out of celestial bronze.
Powers (if any): (okay so, preface: he sounds really powerful if I just tell you his abilities, so this is basically…his powers and the weaknesses to them. If you think he's OP, please tell me and I will make changes) Anyways. So Ethan can control the earth, but only to a point. He can summon earth or stone, but too much at once and he passes out. He can speak to animals, but the larger the animal is, the harder it is to properly communicate with them; if the animal is magical, too, then it's even harder. He can heal people through touch, but it drains his own life force and can literally kill him. Also, he can be controlled by Gaia. Like, mind controlled. When this happens, his eyes turn pitch black. Also, (this isn't an ability but–) his body is heavier than it should be. Not like, fat, but like his weight doesn't match his body size, because his body is denser. For this reason, he sinks like a stone in water, and could easily drown since he isn't a strong swimmer.
Appearance: Ethan is a little taller than average height, with a slim form. He has sandy brown hair that hangs into his eyes just a little bit, and he does his best to keep it brushed back and out of his eyes. His eyes are a bright leaf green, that can almost appear yellow in some lights. He is white, with a bit of a tan, and very light freckles scattered across his nose and cheekbones. He has dimples, and the one in the right cheek is slightly deeper than the one in the left, giving his smile a bit of a lopsided look. He has long, slim fingers, and a little bit of a gangly appearance. He typically wears a t-shirt and jeans, usually with a sweater of some sort thrown over top. He wears a gold ring on the pointer finger of his left hand, and often twists it around when fidgeting.
Personality: Ethan is typically a rather quiet person, and he isn't all that easily pissed off, in all honesty. He tends to be very patient, but once he's had enough, he's had enough. Once he's angry, that anger can be hard for him to rein back in. So basically if you've managed to piss him off, congratulations. You're going to die (maybe). He's intelligent and quick-witted, often trying to diffuse tension with a wellaimed joke, but this same quick wit can turn very sharp if he does start to get riled up.
Short Backstory: Ethan was found outside of an orphanage. Gaia had managed to take human form for a while, and had gotten pregnant with a human man during that short time. Even after that time ended, she basically grew Ethan in a womb hidden deep in the Earth. When it was time for him to be born, she spat him out onto the surface in a wicked basket, wrapped in a woolen blanket. He was found by someone from the orphanage, and taken into the orphanage. They found a small paper with a name on it: "Ethan". They gave him the middle name, and he was adopted at five years old by a couple, Mr Henry Frost and Mrs Laura Frost. They had no children of their own, and raised him until he was 8 years old. When he was 8, Laura died in a car wreck. After that, Henry began to turn neglectful towards the young boy. Ethan was found by a faun when he was 14 and his abilities were just beginning to surface. He was brought to camp, and eventually claimed by Gaia. His parentage, however, has caused him to be shunned by the majority of camp.

(I hope he's alright? I can change anything if it needs to be, I don't mind)

Name: Raphael Bailey
Age: 17
Gender: Male
Sexuality: Bisexual
Godly Parent: Asclepius
Weapon(s): Dagger, bow and arrows
Powers (if any): He can transfer some of his energy to other people as a healing measure. It speeds up the healing process in another's body (if anyone has seen BNHA, think sort of like Recovery Girl, except the energy is coming from him). This does not mean he can reanimate the dead. He also does not have unlimited energy, so it can take a toll and leave him with serious side effects if he's not careful. He also has an almost supernatural sense for figuring out injuries and illnesses, but it looks more like intuition than power.
Appearance: 5'11, broader frame, but he's got a fairly "average" body type, as far as muscle goes. He has dark blonde curly hair, amber eyes, and a light tan complexion. He ususally wears jeans and a hoodie, in fairly neutral colors, and has a considerably "bland" sense of style due to a lack of care in that area. He wears glasses- a pair of square tortoiseshell frames.
Personality: Raphael is a little rough around the edges, not the sweet, warm kind of person you might expect a healer to be. He's likely to tell someone to suck it up- not because he's dismissive and not a good healer- but because he can literally sense what's wrong with a person, and if it's just some bruising, he doesn't really care all that much. Raphael is also incredibly clingy when he gets close to someone, but he finds it very hard to build intimate relationships to begin with. He's afraid of abandonment above all. While not really a peacemaker, Raphael typically avoids fighting, as he's not the type who likes to get his hands dirty. He pretends not to care a lot of the time, and other times he actually doesn't care. Very tough exterior, but generally a helpful and maybe even sweet person once you've proven yourself.

Short Backstory: Raphael had a lot of things fairly easy compared to some of his peers. He grew up with a mother who treated him alright, even if she was a bit emotionally detached from him. His powers weren't super prominent, as he didn't have much reason to use them most of the time. The tipping point- what sent him to CHB- was when he was about 11 years old and in a car accident with his mother. He accidentally used some of his healing powers on her wounds, and that was when she decided Raphael needed to leave. She'd never really intended to have a kid in the first place, especially not one she could never understand. He was lucky enough to not have been orphaned. Sending him off to camp shouldn't have been a big deal. Except it was. Raphael fell out of touch with his mother. He genuinely hated the Hermes cabin, as it made him feel like even more of an outcast. Raphael always tended to take the sidelines in battle, typically opting for healing roles when he could, so it was assumed for a while that he was Apollo's kid. When Asclepius claimed him, an illusion of the god's staff appeared over him- a simple wooden rod, entwined with a single snake. "That's a weird-looking Caduceus." "Gods, I can't believe his own father doesn't even like him." Of course, an Athena kid stepped in and explained that this wasn't Hermes' Caduceus, but in fact the Rod of Asclepius. Either way, Raphael would be stuck in the Hermes cabin for a whole lot longer, even if he logically should've moved into the Apollo cabin. Even then, he wasn't accepted that much by the Apollo kids to begin with. (Sorry if this is incoherent. I'm trying to think, but everything kind of threw itself on the page.)

Just to keep track of characters:

AAAAAGGGHH-HECK-YES-SPOOKY-SEASON - Sierra Quinten, she/her, daughter of Hecate
becfromthedead - Raphael Bailey, he/him, son of Asclepius
Clanthe - Elke Sernsby, she/her, daughter of Crius
Icefire - Ethan James Frost, he/him, son of Gaia
Whisper-Of-A-Scream-Because-Inktober - Mel Bjornsen, genderfluid, child of Phobos
Woodlandcryptid - Nikoli Riego, genderqueer, child of Nyx

I can start and those who haven't done their character can post it as we go!
Also, I decided that Nikoli now has their head shaved/ hair cut real short becuase I want to cosplay them >:3

Nikoli climbed up a tree in the forest, a bag filled with some books, sandwich bags, a couple pens, and more than a few bones they had found on the way to the tree. It was capture the flag soon and they were planning on staying up in the tree the entire time, maybe throw some axes at cabins they didn't like. It would be a bit boring, sure, but it meant they didn't get the looks from Chiron and the campers that happened whenever they asked to do an activity.

Phobos sighed as he strapped on his minimal armor, waiting to be harassed as usual by which side wanted him to join…. but once they were done using him, they would just toss him to the side as usual and treat him like a complete monster… he sniffed a bit, trying to keep from crying. All the “normal” campers would also make fun of his gender identity and harass him for not choosing one thing…

Raphael finished putting on his armor and scoffed. They trained all the time. Absolutely all the time. There was no additional need for this dumb game where usually a lot of people got hurt, and he had to help clean up the mess. Not to mention, occasionally a camper would get pissed and refuse to accept treatment from him, on the basis of him not being an Apollo kid. He was literally Apollo's grandson, but he supposed it was more the lack of status than his actual abilities or lineage.
Humming to himself, Raphael walked the edge of the woods. He watched the other campers go about their business, wondering which team he'd be with. Either way, it probably meant sticking to the sidelines, avoiding getting his hands dirty.

Soon enough, it was time for capture the flag to start. Chiron clapped his hands and began to speak loudly. "You know the usual rules, they still apply. Forest is free reign, of course. It's Athena versus Ares." He called out, before the sound of a horn rang out and everyone began to run toward the forest.

Nikoli rubbed their eyes and grabbed a throwing axe from the shadows, deciding to be prepared. No one really came to this part of the forest unless they were running from something, confident in their abilities, or their team leader was batshit insane and said 'Hey, I'm going to send you to the most dangerous part of the forest, don't die.'

((It's been a while since I've made a female character, so here goes))

Name: Elke Sernsby
Age: 18
Gender: Female
Sexuality: Most likely bisexual, but to be quite honest, she really doesn't know. She rather just love who she wants to love without having to put a label on it.
Godly Parent: Crius
Weapon(s): She prefers to avoid weapons, but if she had to use one, it'd be a dagger, just to protect herself. To be honest, she hates having to do anything when it comes to weapons or fighting. She likes to just help with planning with battles and things of that nature, but her opinions and ideas are never listened to due to her father.
Powers (if any): Elke can somewhat foresee the future, to a degree. In a way, she's an over-glorified fortune teller. She can see the changes in the stars and from that predict the outcome of a fight -to a degree- or at times a person's future -again to a degree. But she really doesn't like to use her powers that often, it tires her out, making her just feel sluggish and rather loopy, and the more she uses her powers, the less accurate she is. But normally, her predictions can be very accurate, and even though they always are, no one listens to her opinion, or whatever she has to say to begin with when, and when she's right she gets oh so frustrated. The other campers normally claim her ideas, or things of that nature, which just frustrates the heck out of her since she was right, or at least had a decent prediction to begin with.

(Ack I'm sorry, my brain is just not working today, I'll fix this later))
Personality / Short Backstory: She tends to sort of be a bit outspoken at times, and when she first came to the camp, that got her into a lot of trouble. Turns out, kids who already seem to have had a semi-rough life don't want to hear about someone else's problems, or even their ideas. Elke continued to try and make and such, I mean, she loves people, but she started to just lose that happiness of trying to make friends when she was rejected by the other campers. Over and over and over. But she should be used to this by now. Her parents weren't the greatest , and she had quite a few siblings. Her mother kept the secret of her real father for a while, but eventually her siblings figured it out, then let her father know which got her kicked out of the house. The life she had once known was gone, and here she was, now living at a camp with a bunch of people who don't even like her, like at all. She has tried to make the most of this life, but, she's pretty much given up, what's the point of trying to make friends and trying to fit in if itjust doesn't work?
