No sir,
well I don't wanna be the blame,

Name
“I don’t like my name, so I’d prefer for you to just call me Anna Shauk. My full first name is too... princess-y.”
Anna’s full name is Annabelle May Shauk. She hates her first name and her middle name though. Her usual response when someone calls her Annabelle is to stab them in the arm with her dagger or to shock them lightly. She would shock them, not so lightly, if she could.

Birthday
“I was born on the fifth day of May.”
Anna was born on May 5, 1997.

Gender
“Is that some sort of trick question? It’s rather obvious, isn’t it?”
Anna is a girl obviously.

God Parent
“My father? The only reason I’m here is because my parents sent me here right after a lightning bolt appeared over my head. I have no idea what you mean by ‘God Parent.’”
Anna’s Godly parent is Zeus.

Claimed
“What does that mean?”
Yes, Anna is claimed.

Mortal Family
“My cousin, Elijah James Smith, he stays here too, doesn’t he?”
Eli's mother and father are Anna's aunt and uncle. Their names are Elle and James Smith.

Years in Camp
“I just got here.”
Now, Anna has been at camp for two years.

Brief History
”My cousin left our house when I had just turned four years old. this may seem hard to believe, but I still remember him. His smile, his laugh, his mess of hair. These were all things that made him, well him. I was quite sad when he left, but I continued to get everything I wanted. Every toy. I wasn’t that much into dolls and doll houses; I was more of a tom-boy. My child hood was made up of Pokemon ad the power rangers. Maybe I would have grown up differently, like more of a girl, if Eli I had stayed. I remember calling him Ellie, because I couldn’t pronounce Eli. When I was about ten, I started seeing odd things. I saw a centaur once; half man half horse, right? I also saw other abnormal things.”
Anna is from Brooklyn. When Anna was two, her parents adopted Eli. Anna loved him to death and would try to do anything she could to make him happy. When she woke up one morning and he was gone, it was as if her whole world shattered like a fragile piece of glass hitting the ground hard. He was that special to her, he was like an older brother to her.

A week before she arrived at camp, a lightning bolt appeared over Anna’s head. She looked up and gasped. Immediately after, her mother and step-father sent her to Camp Half Blood. She ran into a bunch of monsters, but the dagger her mother gave her saved her throughout her journey. She got lost a couple times, but easily found her way around things.And now she is here, but she’s very confused about what’s going on. She doesn’t really know what some of this demigod stuff is.

Since coming to camp, Anna Shauk has seen people she cared about die. She felt bad because some of them she never really talked to. She just kind of cared about them from a distance. This is because she has not let anyone get really close to her, except for her cousin, who died in a battle at Camp Half Blood. She recently found out that she has a little brother, though she has no idea who he is.

Physical Appearance
”Are you trying to steal my identity?”
Anna is a pretty girl, not that she cares about that. She has deep red hair that falls down to the small of her back. It s layered every three inches or so and she is growing out long bangs. Anna has beautiful electric blue eyes like every other child of Zeus She has high cheek bones and the only flaw to her face is a mole near her hairline. The bright side about that is it’s easy to hide. She also has a small chip in one of her front teeth, but being who she is and having the past she does, she doesn’t smile a whole lot.

Anna stands at five feet and eight and a half inches tall. She is slender and light weighted. She likes to go for the casual look when she dresses. Usually you’ll find her in skinny jeans and a T-shirt, maybe a necklace and some jewelry if you’re lucky. Oh that’s another thing. She must wear makeup everyday. It’s a part of her daily routine. On special occasions, you’ll find Anna wearing an elegant dress of some sort.

Personality
”I swear you’re trying to steal my identity.”
Anna Shauk can be very, uh, electrifying if you piss her off. By the way, pissing her off is not that hard to do because of her temperament issues. She loses her cool very quickly and next you know, you're a sizzling shish kabob. Not literally, but hopefully you understand that it is not a wise idea to get on Anna's bad side. She has trust issues. Anna can be really rude to you when you first meet her, but no fear, if she likes you, she'll eventually warm up to you.

On the inside, Anna really is a nice girl. The only thing that makes her seem unkind to people is the fact that she can't trust someone until she knows where their loyalty lies. Anna can also be enthusiastic about almost anything, but she's afraid to show her enthusiasm sometimes, causing her to sometimes seem closed off. She wants to show her enthusiasm, but sometimes she feels like there's a big wall in front of her, preventing that from escaping.

Since the death of her cousin, and countless others, Anna has become even more closed off and distant from others. It is hard to get her to join in camp activities with the other campers. Most of the time, she keeps to herself: training by herself, going to the forest alone, etc.. Though she does not want to show this to others, she has become a lot more emotional in the past several months since Eli died.

Fatal Flaw
”Er, I have a secret. I know who murdered your son.”
Anna cannot lie. She starts lying but then she decides to tell the truth. She goes by the saying Honesty is the best policy. Sure it’s best to be honest, but there are just some things you shouldn’t tell people. What she doesn’t go by is If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say it.

Pets
“Animals are over-rated.”

Talents
“Er...um?”
Anna doesn’t like to think she’s good at anything, and besides she hasn’t really discovered any of her talents, since she just arrived at camp.
**Climbing: Soon Anna will find out that she’s a professional at the rock climbing. She spent a lot of earlier life climbing over things to hide when she was sad or angry.
**Archery: Anna has always been gifted with archery skills. Her parents got her into the sport when she was just ten.

Weapons
“My parents gave me αστραπή to me for my fourteenth birthday.”
Anna has αστραπή, translated to Lightning. It’s a necklace and falling from the necklace is a real electrifying lightning bolt. When she shouts “αστραπή” the necklace becomes a bow and arrow.

Year-Round or Summer
“I’m never ever going back home.
Year-round.

Other
"My cousin's name is Elijah James Smith. Have you seen him around here?"
Anna’s color is parchment.

Not anymore,
It’s your turn.

Z I N A H / G R A C E / B A Y E R // T E R P S I C H O R E

After six hours of school I’ve had enough for the day
I hit the radio dial and turn it up all the way

http://www.polyvore.com/cgi/set?id=54133641
Name
“Hi! I’m Zinah!”
Zinah “Zee” Grace Bayer.

Birthday
”I was born in November of 1995.”
Zinah was born November 2, 1996.

Gender
”I’m a girl, thank you very much.”

God Parent
“My mother is the muse of dancing!”
Zinah’s mother is Terpsichore, the muse of dance.

Claimed
“. . . Yes . . .”

Mortal Family
”Well, as far as I know, it’s just me and Dad. Well, there is my twin sister, but she’s not pure mortal either. Hash-tag HalfBlood.”
Her father sent her to camp when she was a toddler; he was afraid of having a Demigod in he house. His name was Henry Bayer. He was a dancer too.

Years in Camp
”I’ve been here for . . . eleven years. Since I was five, almost six.”
Now, Zinah has been at camp for twelve years.

Brief History
”Ever since I could remember, I’ve been dancing.”
Zinah was born in Paris, France just minutes before her twin sister, Sienna Bayer. Their father had moved there and their God parent wanted them to be with their father as soon as possible. Shortly thereafter, Terpsichore laid Zinah and Sienna in their father’s arms and left back to Olympus in New York. Now, Henry knew they would love dancing and both have it in their blood, so as soon as they were old enough, he enrolled them in classes.

Zinah was a natural at dancing. At age three and a half, she started competing. She hasn’t been able to stop since. At age five, the Bayer family moved back to New York. Or rather, Henry moved back to New York and this was the twins first time living there, much less visiting the state. Monsters started appearing a few months later, in May of the year they would turn six. Henry made a very safe but difficult decision and sent the two to camp.

Zinah still competed, visiting her dad before and after competitions, but then headed back to camp a day or two after the competition ended. She couldn’t stay there long, and they both knew that. Sometimes, but not often, Sienna would come along too, but she didn’t really like competing. She liked dancing for fun. Then came a day, when Zinah was about fourteen. She and her sister were traveling to their father’s house three days before a competition.

Zinah opened the door to her father’s apartment, surprised to see that it was unlocked. However, when she opened the door, more surprise came, but not the good kind. She and Sienna saw their father lying dead on the floor. They knew it was from monsters and went back to camp immediately, causing Zinah to miss a competition, but this time, Zinah didn’t care. All she cared about was that her dad was dead. She was distraught. A few months later, Zinah decided to continue competitions, and dancing because she knew it would make her father happy.

When Zinah was sixteen, she was wandering in the woods, when the camp went under attack. Zinah was ambushed by several monsters and fought her way through them. After the battle, she looked around her, and saw her twin sister, lying on the ground dead. She still does not know whether she murdered her own sister when she was trying to defend herself, or if a monster killed her sister when they were attacking Zinah. This state of not knowing the truth has started to drive her crazy.

Physical Appearance
“My eyes are like the chocolate, melting inside my head. Haha, I don’t know.”
Zinah has medium length, beach blonde hair that is just wavy. A lot of the time it can be mistaken as curly, but it’s not. It reaches down below her shoulders, but not quite to her stomach yet. She keeps her hair natural, as it is beautiful as it is. No dye and no heat appliances have ever touched this girls gorgeous hair. She does make sure her hair is brushed and always looks neat, though. She can’t go walking around looking like she just got out of bed, can she?

Unlike her twin sister, Zinah has acne problems. Nothing super bad, but her skin isn’t near perfect. She almost always has a splotch of breakouts on her forehead and she occasionally gets breakouts right under her chin. Her eyes are very brown, like chocolate, but even though she hates them, and wishes she had green or blue eyes, they’re beautiful. She has light skin, like Taylor Swift light. It’s pale and it hasn’t gotten any sun.

Zinah is tall and slender and everything a good dancer wants to be. Okay, except for the fact that she’s not the most flexible person, so she has to work on that. She is almost five foot ten inches tall and she weighs one-hundred-and-thirty-three pounds, which is pretty good for someone as tall as she is. She has an athletic build from all the competitive dancing she does. She is not as flexible as some of the dancers she competes against, which means she has to work even harder to one-up them.

Zinah doesn’t really have a selective style that she likes to wear. She wears almost anything there is. From the crazy costumes for competitions, to jeans and a shirt, to fancy dresses. One thing she doesn’t wear very often, though, is shorts. She wears them when she rehearses dances, but other than that, she doesn’t wear them. She just doesn’t like them, plus it’s easier for bugs to get to her legs if she wears shorts.

Personality
”Oh no! I have to think about this!”
Other than Zinah being an amazing dancer, she isn’t artistic at all. She can’t draw, do graphics, or express her feelings through words across a page. She has no artistic ability whatsoever. Her hand isn’t exactly steady, so her handwriting is really messy and so are her drawings. She rarely ever has the muse to form words on a page, and because of Dyslexia, when she does, they make no sense. She cannot work computers at all, so there would be no chance of her excelling, much less learning how to do graphics.

Zinah is a perfectionist. Either she gives up on something or it has to be perfect. And she does give up on stuff quite often, but not dancing. Zinah would never dream of giving up dancing. She’ll work on nothing else, do nothing else, until she either gives up on that particular thing or gets it perfect. This can be good or bad, depending on the situation is and how long it takes her to complete this goal of hers. She has made her perfectionism a sort of habit.

Zinah is very outgoing; she always has something to say. She is never afraid to walk up to someone and say hello. Nor is she afraid to get up on stage and perform for a humongous crowd of people. It is in her nature. She knows how to cheer someone up when they feel down, or bring a smile to someone’s face whatever their mood may be. Zinah being outgoing, she is also quite a flirty girl. Enough said.

Zinah is responsible. When something important is placed into her hands, she makes sure it gets done. She never leaves anything important alone and she’s always looking for ways to help out. This is one of the things that contributes to her being a perfectionist, except she never gives up these things. She can’t. Zinah feels the need to do this, and it too has become a habit for her.

Every once in a while, Zinah goes through a hallucination, usually relating to the death of Sienna. The death that haunts her dreams. She will never be able to forgive herself for what she may or may not have done. These hallucinations and dreams are slowly driving her insane.

Zinah is also very helpful and encouraging. She is always prepared to set a new camper in the right direction, and give them tips on their sword technique. The demi-gods at Camp Half Blood know that they can always count on Zinah Bayer when they need assistance of any kind.

Fatal Flaw
”I honestly don’t know.”
Zinah has over-confidence. In dancing, competing and battle she always thinks she’s going to win. Not only that, but it also really lets her down when she loses. She’ll get hyped up for something, and then when she loses she’ll get all down in the dumps and depressed for a few days, which is really bad for her, especially when she isn’t in the safety of the camps borders.

Pets
”I don’t have time for animals.”

Talents
“Dancing. Most definitely.”
**Dancing.
Zinah is an amazing dancer. She’s been dancing since she was born, practically. She’s been dancing competitively since age five, when she was only a summer camper, but she still goes to competitions, she just does her own choreography now. She doesn’t plan on stopping anytime soon either.
**Defense.
Zinah is a good defensive Halfblood. While she can hardly make a hit in battle, she knows how to dodge, but maybe that’s because she dances while she does so. That’s probably what makes her have such quick instincts. It also helps when she’s climbing the wall.
**Competition.
Zinah is good at competition. She’s learned to watch her competitors to see how they do and make sure she does better, or at least attempt to. She always assumes she’s going to do better though.

Weapons
“Χορός!”
Zinah has two daggers, but they also take form of the jazz shoes she wears on her feet, changing only when she announces in a loud voice, the Greek word meaning Dance.

Year-Round or Summer
”Year-round.”

Other
Her color is dancer.

I gotta dancer right on the spot,
The beat's really hot; dance dance yeah!
