Brief History: Ajax Carlisle Nightshade was found on the doorstep of an orphanage as a two year old, in too big overalls and a red shirt, barefoot, babbling in Ancient Greek. He was immediately labeled as a strange, orphaned boy, and was singled out for being different. He was scary at times, growing up as a kid. What from having terrible nightmares that involved tons of screaming, thrashing, and violent vomiting, to being able to see ghosts, whenever he hid in the cemetery to be alone from the other orphans. He was never named by the caretakers, they always called him 'boy', but once after a strange dream when he was six, he told everybody that his name was Ajax. Ajax Carlisle Nightshade. He didn't know it at the time, but his father had told him what his name was to be.

Physical Appearance: Ajax is tall, thin, and ivory skinned. His dark brownish-black hair contrasts against it, and what stands out the most on his body is his hazel eyes that glow black when he's mad or using his powers of the undead, especially speaking to ghosts.



Personality: Ajax is a quiet boy who bottles up his emotions until he's so stressed out that he lets everything go in one explosion. His temper is nasty. He is a good actor too. He wears a calm, peaceful mask, but he looks just as every bit a son of Hades that he is when he's pissed. He doesn't trust easily, as at the orphanage, nobody liked him and that's where he learned to keep everything closed up inside of him. He can hold grudges for a long time.

He isn't comfortable with people in general and prefers to be alone, but if he finds somebody interesting to talk to, he'll open up a tiny bit. Also, he's not good at comforting people. It's awkward for both him and the person he's trying to comfort, not that he'd ever try to comfort people, it's just way too much for him.

Fatal Flaw: His temper, while making him seem scary and not worth crossing, the anger blinds him and he acts quite rashly in an upset state.

Pets: Ajax isn't much of a pet person, but hellhounds are quite friendly to him, and he likes them somewhat. And he also loves cats, as they're low maintenance unless they want attention, and they're also adorable, not that he'd ever admit that to anybody.

Talents: Can talk to/command ghosts and tell if somebody died, just by concentrating on a name. And he instantly knows a face and name of everybody who dies, everyday. It pains him to see so much death, but as a (unclaimed) son of Hades, it's what he was made for. And he has some bit of control over monsters of Hades' domain, such as hellhounds, furies, and skeleton warriors.

Weapons: Ajax has a black metal helmet that covers his entire face except for his eyes and mouth. It makes his appearance and very presence seem deadly and terrifying, almost as if he were the real Hades in the flesh. It lets him Shadow-travel and blend into things easier. The helmet is a near replica of Hades' Helm of Darkness, but it's weaker. Ajax can't be completely invisible with it on. He calls it the Shadow Helm.

Ajax usually wears a digital watch that's made of obsidian and celestial bronze. It can display the time, is water-proof, and can turn into an obsidian mace with a celestial bronze handle. If he loses or drops it, it returns on his wrist as his watch. He named it Reaper, as the Grim Reaper.

Year-Round or Summer: Year-Round, as he has nowhere else to go, and plus monsters will immediately swarm him if he crosses the boundary line.

Other: Ajax has some suspicion of who his father is, but he figures it could be Thanatos, god of death, as well. But the suspicion of being a son of Hades is strong. Although most of the time, he forgets his suspicion and is only reminded of it when he sees himself in a mirror, wearing his helmet or holding his mace.
