We Got The Dreamers Disease

Shay Caulfield

;Name: Shayenne "Shay" Josie Caulfield
Age/Birthday: Shay is seventeen, born on September 17th
Gender: Shay is a girls name, right?
God Parent: Shay is a daughter of Athena, goddess of wisdom
Claimed: Shay is not yet claimed. It seems Athena doesn't care much for her lousy daughter
Mortal Family: Shay grew up surrounded by family. She has a very large family of seven. She grew up in the suburbs, with her father, Joel. She grew up with all boys. Her brothers had a major effect on her personality. Her father never remarried, so she grew up with no mother figure. When Shay was twelve, her family moved out onto the farm. Her youngest brother, Elijah, died just after moving. He was four. He wandered into the barn, to the woodchipper...and you get the rest. Shay has nightmares about it still. Shay had to work on the farm to pay for her own clothes and other needs. Like books. Her father shipped her off on her horse when she turned sixteen.
Years in Camp: Shay has been at camp for almost a year. Somewhere around seven or eight months.
Brief History: Shay had an eventful childhood. Filled with obstacles left and right, she had no time to think. And now, at her older teen years, finally escaping her haunted past, it all comes crashing down on her.

When Shay was three, her mother supposedly "died". She was too young to remember the face or even a slight sense of what her mother was like. Thus, it did not effect her. Her father brought it up so often, she gained a hell of a picture of her mother. When Shay decided to start acting like she knew what he was talking about, Joel gave her a picture of him and Athena on their first date. Shay still keeps it in a frame on her nightstand.

When Shay was six, her younger brother, Jeremiah was born. Then Abe, a year later. Her dad seriously needed a hobby. And the grossest thing, he never even spent more than a night with these women. He would give them his number and address and tell them "If you get pregnant, call and tell me. Then once they're born, bring them over." It was horrible. Shay was constantly burdened with babysitting her younger brothers. Her father worked all day, from four am until nine pm. So, he had no time for any of his children.

When Shay was nine, her older brother, Marcus taught her how to skateboard. She started to get really into it. She went into competitions until they moved to the middle of nowhere. Living in the cities suburbs had brought such joy to Shay, that she hadn't even realized. She has a skate park right now the road from her house in the suburbs. Her friends lived either on her street or a street away in the suburbs. Shay loved the farm though. Her father knocked down the barns and stylo to make a basketball court and a few ramps and rails. Shay started to like him a bit more after that.

When Shay was twelve, she moved out onto a farm. She lived in Oklahoma so there was lots of fields and farming area. She grew to love the farm until her brother died. Shay had heard his rigid screams from the chicken pen. She'd ran but, she was too late. Shay ran into the barn only to vomit, gasp and sob. There was her brother--or some of her brother--in the wood chipper. She hadn't even realized he'd left the pool. And now he was dead. And scattered throughout the wood chipper and the hay on the barn floor. And her father, being the sadist he is, shrugged it off and told the kids to clean it up. Shay refused. Her father tied her hands, stuff socks in her mouth with duck tape wound around her jaw to make sure they didn't fall out and then he raped her.

The sexual abuse kept up. When Shay was fifteen, she started to go see the school's therapist about it. She just told the therapist she was being abused. The teachers at her school were assholes. They did nothing. Absolutely nothing. It kind of reminded her of reading The Chrysalids in grade nine. How, when David Strorm was whipped for being odd. Shay was being whipped for standing out. A couple month later, her older brother, Cai and her uncle Eugene joined in on the abuse.

Shay was sixteen when she decided it was time. It was time to act. Shay sneaked out of her room one night, around four am. She stealthily waddled across floors and down flights of stairs. Shay slipped her hand to the knob of her fathers door, slid it open with the quickest movement and tip toed in. She knew where the key to the gun cabinet was. She grabbed the key, on the piece of white, or what was now blood stained red, piece of yarn. Shay slowly crept out and across the basement. Finally, after a minute or two, she opened the gun cabinet, grabbed a pistol, clipped on the silencer and loaded it. She'd never known that it would come to this. She was so scared though. Shay walked into her father room, lined the tiny scope at her father's forehead and pulled the trigger. A small click when off. She pointed the gun, again at her father's heart this time, and shot again. The same click echoed. Now Shay tip toed upstairs, to Cai's room. She did the same to him. Then grabbed the backpack full of clothes she'd packed, slipped it over her shoulder's and left on her brother's motorcycle.

Upon arriving at camp, Shay had little to no knowledge of the gods or heroes of Olympus and Greece. She hadn't even known she would be going to camp. She just followed the map to her so-called cousin Martha's house. Which happened to turn out to be the centaur himself, Chiron. Apparently, Chiron was Martha to Joel Caulfield. Which made absolutely no sense. At all. Shay trained for a while after that. She still hasn't settled down. She has nightmares about her father and brother, coming back to kill her. And often, there's a familiar song playing in the background, which make Shay scream everytime she hear's it. Iris by The Goo Goo Dolls is often playing in her dreams. Her father use to play the song when he abused her. Shay has nightmares often, and visions of her father, or brother. Her doctor's think she's coming down with a case of Panophobia, a fear of everything.
Physical Appearance: Shay's past has had a large effect on her appearance. She wears darker clothes, has piercings and tends to...stand out.

Her hair is dark brown, almost the color of dirt. She never straightens it, always leaving it wavy. It gets knotted easily. This annoys her to the extent that she carries a portable flip-brush in her Adidas jawstring bag. She almost always wears a beanie. It's kind of her signature. It doesn't matter what colour. But, always a beanie. No matter the weather. Shay's hair rests right below her shoulder's, grazing her shoulder blades.

Shay's eyes are a peculiar colour. It's like mixing electric blue with brown. The majority of her eye is brown, with the occasional green and bright blue shards. Shay's iris is bigger than average, although her pupil is smaller. She has long, black eyelashes. She wears liquid eyeliner and mascara everyday but, its barely visible. Sort of a natural, matt look.

Shay has a thin but, oddly proportioned body. Her stomach is almost flat, with just a small amount as fat. Though it's barely noticeable. Her legs are long. Her skin is olive, her face is covered in light brown freckles. She stands at height of "5'7'. Which is weird because her family is known for being short. Shay weighs 118 lbs. Her facial features are of average size. Her bottom lip is fuller, much fuller than the top. Her top lip is very thin.
Personality: Shay is a complex, dark girl.

Shay's past has had a big effect on her personality. She's very protective. She keeps a lot of her emotions inside, so her face barely ever shows expression and her voice is almost mono-toned. She's not all tight strung though.

Shay is very capable. Meaning, she prefere's to do things things on her own. Her father was very sexist and now, she finally has the rights of a modern day woman instead of a woman in the 1800's. Shay now does everything the boys do. A friend from the Hermes cabin taught her how to skateboard, play hockey and video games. Stuff she wasn't allowed to do back at the place she called "home". Shay finally feels free.

Shay has trouble trusting people. She keeps to herself most of the time. She has a very small, exclusive group of friends. Shay is totally and utterly rude to other girls. So, Shay sticks to hanging out with boys. She fits in better with them. She's very confident. Shay thinks she can do anything. The sky's the limit right? Completely wrong. Even with her past failure's, she thinks she can do anything.

Shay, after coming to camp, was still in a daze. She'd never killed anyone before. She'd didn't regret it though. For a couple weeks, she would have to sit down during training, because she'd have these visions, of one of the campers as her father. She would actually try to kill the camper. Shay'd been put on pills after a week of this. She still has the visions, and they're getting worse.
Fatal Flaw: Shay has two possibly fatal flaws. She doesn't enjoy talking about them either. Firstly, Shay's over-confidence. She literally thinks she can do anything. Anything. Secondly, her visions. She could have one during battle. Some of them are bad enough that she'd stab herself. She's done it before.
Pets: Shay's wanted a husky puppy since she was little but, it was against her father's rules. No pets. No animals around the farm in general.
Talents: Shay is very good at skateboarding. She just learned a couple months ago but, she's been getting pretty good lately. She's not the best in combat though, she's not bad either. Her running is a different story though. She's learned so many techniques and stunts over the past few months. Her hunting skills are phenomenal. She is as quiet as a mouse when sneaking up on someone or something.
Weapons: Shay uses a normal camp sword right now. She's making a sketch of her perfect weapon for a Hephie to make.
Year-Round or Summer: Year round. She has no where else to go anyway.
Other: Her song is Runs In The Family by Amanda Palmer
