Name: Elizabeth “Lizzie” Jones
Age/Birthday: 20th May 1996 (Age: 16)
Gender: Female
God Parent: Hermes
Claimed: Yes
Mortal Family: Joanna Jones (Mother)
Years in Camp: 3
Brief History: Lizzie grew up in the bad part of New York. Her mother didn’t have a decent job and they were barely making ends meet. Lizzie found herself around drug-dealers, thieves and just dangerous people in general. She found she had a knack for stealing and deception, so she became a con-artist. Stealing money and pawning whatever she could find in the better part of the city. Her mother then got a huge promotion and they moved away from the slums to the bustling and expensive city life. Lizzie found herself around the people she had envied and stole from. She made a good little name for herself in the cop’s records. Her mother didn’t understand her daughter until she remembered who her father was. She came clean to Lizzie and told her about Hermes. Turns out that Joanna had been a bit of a wild child and had been even worse than Lizzie. In order to prevent Lizzie doing anything even more dangerous and irrational, she took her to Camp-Half Blood and Lizzie, bored of her New York con-artist gig, went willingly.
Physical Appearance: Lizzie has short black hair, styled in a cute angled bob that frames her face. Her eyes are a dazzling green colour and her lips almost seem stuck in a permanent broad grin. She is very tall, standing at 5”7’ and she ignores flirtatious comments about her legs frequently. She is a fan of sports wear and is rarely seen in a skirt or a dress.
Personality: Lizzie always considers herself the loveable rascal in any group of friends. She is mischievous and bold, but has a heart of gold. If anyone messes with her allies- close or not- they will have to deal with her. It is a very rare sight to see her unhappy or angry as hell. She is a born optimist, always looking for that silver lining on the cloud.
Fatal Flaw: Lizzie has always been too inquisitive for her own good, sticking her nose into other’s business without much thought or consideration. She also has a habit of picking fights that she knows she will lose. They are usually with people much older than her and people who have threatened or hurt her friends. Lizzie will always mean well when she does something she thinks is right, but it can sometimes lead to more trouble than aid.
Pets: N/A
Talents: Lizzie of course has enhanced thieving skill, being able to steal something in someone’s front pocket while standing right in front of them. She is very athletic and is cat-like in speed and agility. She is a master of persuasion and deception.
Weapons: Lizzie can be deadly when she fights with a number of daggers that are concealed around her body. She also fights with a short bow at times and when fighting mortals, she prefers to use her own body.
Year-Round or Summer: Year-Round
Other: Lizzie has an impeccable memory, being able to remember anything she reads, writes or something someone told her. Lizzie is also an amazing runner and prides herself at being one of the fastest in camp. (This hasn’t actually been officially announced, but Lizzie likes to believe it anyway)
Name: Polly Monroe
Age/Birthday: 18th August 1996 (Age: 16)
Gender: Female
Godly Parent: Asclepius
Claimed: Yes
Mortal Family: Sarah Monroe (Mother)
Years in Camp: 3
Brief History: Polly didn’t have a very exciting life at the start. She lived in the country with her mother, who worked as a nurse at the small local clinic. Watching her mother’s caring nature made Polly feel strong about helping others in need and became a little aid for her mother at the clinic. Always going well into one night, well driving, Polly’s mother slipped on black ice and crashed into another car. There was nothing they could do and Sarah died that night. Afraid of being taken away by child services, Polly ran away. She soon found herself at Camp-Half blood and she was taken in. She found herself caring for anyone who was sick or injured at camp. They of course noticed Polly’s amazing skill with working with remedies. That night, Polly was claimed by Asclepius, God of Medicine. They understood her abilities and she immediately became a part of Camp-Half Blood. Polly loves it as she is able to heal her allies and help others like she always wanted too.
Physical Appearance: Polly is a very cute girl, with loosely curled blonde hair, lollipop pink lips and big, sea blue eyes. She is small for her age though, standing at 5”6’. She is not overly-excited about fashion and clothes, but she does love to shop and is a fan of the laid-back, casual and pretty style. She is quite uncomfortable about body, believing she is not quite as pretty or attractive as other girls she is not seen showing off her chest or legs often.
Personality: Polly is a quiet girl, with a caring and sensitive nature. She is well-spoken and mature and believes disputes should be settled with words. She stays calm in the most hectic situations. She can sometimes snap if a person pushes her too far, but one look at Polly and people find it almost nearly impossible to do so.
Fatal Flaw: Polly is a smart girl, but can be too trusting. She can be naïve and believe what people tell her, but only because she feels everyone has a good heart. She can also be over-sensitive, the smallest thing being able to upset her. Polly can't stand up for herself, always appearing to blindly follow orders and not give her own opinion. If someone picks on her, she just takes it, not wanting to start fights she wouldn't be able to finish
Pets: N/A
Talents: Polly is amazing in the ways of medicine, being able to diagnose an unobvious ailment with someone at first glance.
Weapons: Polly doesn’t fight, but if edged on she can be average with a short bow.
Other: Polly is allergic to flowers, which is a problem if she needs them for antidotes.

He took out his anger by bullying younger kids and in street fights with older boys. His mother tried to send him to therapy, but he would just scream at her and destroy what was closest to him at that moment. Soon Alex couldn’t stand it. He needed to know who he was and why he was like this. He ran-away from home and found Camp-Half Blood. Just before, in the woods, he had been attacked by a Harpies. He held his own and fought it like it was just another fight in the slums (only with screeching and claws). Aid from Camp-Half Blood came and finished the job. Alex collapsed on the spot, his body worn away. He woke up in camp and it was explained to him that no mortal could have taken on Harpies. He was told about Demi-Gods. Centaurs, nymphs, it was a lot to take in. That night, Alex was claimed by Ares, the God of War. Alex began ecstatic. He had found out who he was and was around people who understood him. He wanted to use his mad strength for a more useful purpose and Camp-Half blood was he place to start.

He has messy black hair and has sharp grey eyes. A small scar can be found under his eye and he makes no attempt to conceal it. His clothes are usually ripped, either for style or because monsters got at them. It’s usually the latter.
Personality: Alex is rather gruff and most people stay away from him as rumours of his actions before coming to camp have spread all over. He’s not a bad guy if you get to know him and give him a chance. He is reliable, honest and a great ally to have. It turns out he has a good sense of humour and is quite protective of his friends, even to a fault.
