Her mother is Ate, the goddess of discord and mischief.

Coryssa's father is Thomas Daniels. He's 43 and working for as a professional, private chef to famous icons around New York.
years in camp
She's been at camp since August, 2008, making her years at camp around two. Her father allows her to be a year-rounder.
brief history
Let me just start off with her background. Cori is Caucasian, French, Dutch, Irish, a little bit of Spanish, and American. Coryssa was born in Denver, Colorado with her father. Cori had no memories of her mother, so her father never brought her up. When Coryssa did ask about how, he said what most parents of a demigod would say, "she died." Since Cori was so young when she asked, her father never had to explain of her mother's 'death.' Since word of her mother was 'forbidden,' practically, in her house, Coryssa never even thought about her mother, and she never wanted to.
At age the age of seven, Coryssa's father had to move to New York for his job, and brought along his child with him. Thomas was a very strict father, though. He had many rules for Cori to follow. Some included that she must be in her room, lights off, at 8:30 PM every night. School night or vacation, same rules. Cori would also have to be awake, have her teeth brushed, hair combed, showered, and dressed, all before the Sun was up. Another rule was that when Coryssa was home alone, she must only watch TV, read a novel, sleep, or do chores. No texting (she was lucky to have a phone), no going out, nothing. During the day when Thomas was home, Cori listened to everything he said, did whatever he wanted her to do. Her father once told her, "During the day, you must listen to adults' reasonable demands." Coryssa agreed to that. But, her Thomas had an obvious loophole in that saying.
So, during the night, Coryssa did whatever she wanted. Only if her father didn't know. Basically, in daylight, Coryssa was an angel. When night came, she was an animal. Cori's father never noticed her 'other life', which is why Coryssa is still like that.
When Coryssa turned 10, her father decided to tell her about her mother, Ate. Coryssa claimed she had no relation to Ate (though Ate was her favorite Greek Goddess), and pointed out that she never had anything related to Ate's powers. Her father then pointed out that if she knew about her powers, she'd then see the signs. Cori just played along, saying she believed him. When he showed her Camp Half-Blood, Cori really believed him. Only three days after her arrival, Ate actually claimed her child.
physical appearance
Coryssa is known for her beauty, so don't be surprised if that's mentioned allot. For height, though, she is an average heightened thirteen-year-old girl. Standing at five-feet-five, her legs are cleanly shaved (if you were even wondering, pervs). Coryssa enjoys wearing tall boots because of her legs, but will stick with any other type of shoes. To add onto Coryssa's height, she is a good weight, too. Coming in at only 96 pounds, Coryssa enjoys flaunting her thin figure, but it's not very curvy.
Cori's skin color is a creamy peachish color, and flawless. Flawless except for the ugly, yet small, bruise she has on her back, and a small scar on her heel. Other than those things, Coryssa's skin is basically flawless. Her skin color goes great with her set of eyes. Coryssa's eyes are an emerald green that shine all of the time. Those eyes of hers seem to sometimes look a little blue, which she got from her father (the changing of her eyes' color). During the day, Coryssa never wears makeup. If she goes out at night, she'll wear loads of mascara and eyeliner, a shimmery silver eyeshadow, red lipstick on her soft pink lips, and a tanner blush on her cute little cheeks. Pretty much, in the day, Cori wears (expensive) clothes, but are more like tee-shirts, jeans/skirt, and a beanie (shoes vary). At night, when out, Coryssa wears (expensive) clothes that are usually tighter and more revealing. Cori, also, has a cute little nose used to her sometimes worn black sunglasses.
Ms. Daniels has a kind of strawberry/dirty blonde hair. It's flat. Lifeless. No volume is in Coryssa's hair. It's parted down the middle and flips at the end. Her hair isn't very long, so, it's easy to style, basically. At night, she might make it wavy, curl, or poof it. Cori likes leaving her hair down, never up, to the side, nothing. Her eyebrows are a brownish color, which can also be seen in some small strands of Cori's hair.
Basically, Ate and Thomas had one beautiful child. Everything about her matches. Though, sometimes, Coryssa might come across as a little lifeless and dull. Sometimes, she may seem slutty and a 'hoochy mama'. Coryssa may be envied, may be looked down on for her looks. It's her, so, er, deal with it.
personality
Coryssa is a unique girl. She has flaws, of course. Cori's clumzy, a spaz, and she over thinks almost everything. Those never seem good. Cori's had many broken bones before, but recovers quick. Once she's recovered, Coryssa always tries to prove herself stronger than before, which usually ends up in her breaking another bone. She usually tells her friends this, so they are extra careful and hopefully helpful with her.
Cori follows rules. When any adult has good rules, she'll follow them. Coryssa has been known for her listening skills. Then, when it's night, she forgets everything about rules. Peer pressure isn't really something that gets to Cori, but if people just ask her to do something stupid, Coryssa will probably do that. She may be known for being good to the camp counselors, but to the popo, they might think otherwise. Coryssa doesn't drink, do drugs, steroids, etc., but she might TP a house. Stuff like that.
Though Coryssa may seem quiet, especially since her voice is soft, she is loud. Cori never cracks jokes, but her laughs are contagious. As in what her mother would put it (if they ever met...), "Her laugh is wondrous!" Besides her laugh, people go up to Coryssa because when she's a 'good girl', she seems a tad quieter, a bit less spontaneous. People approach her to ask if she's okay. When she says "Yeah", it seems like she gets happier and a bit out of control.
Of course, Cori is ADHD and dyslexic, which is average. She's very good at reading Greek, and reacts to her first thought. Coryssa maintains a C-B average with the rare A's and the sometimes D's and F's.
A good friend, like Coryssa, is nice, friendly, caring, and trustworthy. Coryssa likes being a good friend, and usually expects people to do the same stuff for her. If not, Cori can develop and attitude. And not a small one. She'll go off on you. Like, she'll go extremely crazy. When someone calms her down, though, she stays calm for a while.
Now, to be a child of Ate, Coryssa must have Ate's powers represented in her personality. Yes, Cori is very mischievous. When things seem off, it's usually because Coryssa is sneaking off to change things around in places. She also likes disagreements, loving the way people argue about stupid things. Though she lives watching others fight, Coryssa doesn't enjoy fighting, herself.
There are other things to Coryssa, smaller ones. She isn't a big flirt, she hates spiders, is afraid of ghosts, and never likes people who, well, hate her. But one thing really bad with Coryssa is that she is one of those people who think they are too fat. Cori has a great health, but will sometimes over do the working out and dieting. But, Cori also realizes (most of the time) that she needs to gain weight, and will do so. She usually maintains a her average weight. Coryssa keeps her secret hate of her weight to herself, though.
To sum up Cori's personality, she seems like two different people sometimes. No, she does not have that weird disorder where you think you're two people, she just acts different.
pets
Currently, Coryssa has no pets.
talents
First, let me talk about Cori's 'powers'. She has the ability to stop time for a maximum of three minutes to 'sneak around' (which is obviously mischievous). If she goes longer for three minutes, Coryssa will feel drained, and will stop before serious consequences. Coryssa can do this everyday, but must give the times an hour long pause before using them again. Though, Cori can do this everyday, she only chooses to do it three times a week.
There is another power she has learned, it's to bring arguments. To do this, the two or more people who will be arguing must not be friends and/or have a strong feeling of hate/dislike for each other. They will argue randomly, and all feelings of one another will come out. Coryssa can do this twice every three days, and it does drain her. The people arguing can fight for a max of an hour.
Now, onto her real talents. Coryssa is very good at rock climbing, and enjoys doing so. She has a talent in modeling, and tries to get any modeling position for girls her age. Cori is a nice actor, but prefers to sing (she sings more pop type of stuff). Coryssa is also a great baker, detective (she watches lots of CSI), and makeup artist!
weapons
Besides brainpower and good looks? Though Coryssa isn't the best fighter, she has a short, three-inch dagger made from celestial bronze. It has no name, but is very shiny.
other
Hmm, nothing else :] Oh, and I pmd Dan the code.
