CAMP INFORMATION
Cody has spent roughly 6 years at Camp, and is Cabin Leader of the Demeter Cabin. He is a year-rounder.

MORTAL FAMILY
Cody's father, Paul Perennial, is a hard working lawyer who works for a very popular and highly regarded law firm. Paul often is on trips to see clients, and therefore Cody is not able to speak to him very often, whether it be through Iris message or face to face.

GOD PARENT
Demeter, Goddess of Agriculture & Harvest

BRIEF HISTORY
Cody grew in a town in Maine with his father. Paul had always told his son that he had a way with plants, and came to realize this even more so when Cody was seven. Even at a young age, Cody embraced his unfamiliar talents and made their driveway into an enclosed pasture with flowers intertwining each other. Cody was delighted with his work, although he didn't know what it meant. He decided not to question it, although not one thing could stop the voices in his head whispering facts about plants and who he was.

Soon enough, however, those whispers seceded from his mind, and he lead a perfectly normal life until he was thirteen. Sort of.
Every other day, as he was walking home from school, taking a short cut him and his dad liked to call the 'Plant Path', namely for its abundance of greenery, Cody always noticed a dark, shadowed figure stalking him out of the corner of his eye. He had no idea who this man was, or why he was following him, so Cody ignored him for the time being.

That got harder as Cody got older.

Over time, he noticed that the man seemed to be inching a little closer and walking a little faster each time Cody caught sight of him.
One day was particularly frightening. Cody was thirteen, and flowers were in bloom already.
The man in the dark trench coat silently crept up without Cody noticing him for once. Therefore it was a surprise to Cody when the man grabbed him by the neck and covered his mouth, dragging him farther away from the path, and away from his home.

Cody's brain was suddenly instinctive. It was almost as if he had practiced this routine with a dummy when Cody yelled an intelligible word into the man's cloaked hand, which muffled his voice slightly, but the message nevertheless got across... to the plants, that is.

Many things happened at once then. A vine spurred out of the ground and wrapped around the cloaked man's legs, bringing him to the ground and forcing him to let Cody out of his grasp. Cody punched the man in the stomach for good measure as the vine continuously ensnared the man.

Cody ran home at the speed of light, practically ramming down the door as he finally reached his house. There, he told Paul what had happened. Without hesitation, Paul instructed Cody to get in the car, and drove to Camp Half-Blood, explaining everything on the way.

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE
Cody has short cropped dirty blonde hair, although he typically grows it out a bit in the winter so as to not freeze to death. He's known as one of the more handsome demigods around camp, though he himself doesn't recognize his good looks obtained from his father.

Cody has long, lean, and somewhat muscular arms, tending to hide them with a sweatshirt. Cody has deep, sensitive green-ish hazel eyes, giving him away as a kind and caring person, despite his knack for kicking butt with vines.
Cody typically wears jeans or shorts with his favorite dark "Go Green" sweatshirt covering up his CHB T-shirt, along with his dark green sneakers.

He's around 5'9", and towers over most people, though he never has the intention of being intimidating, and rarely is.

PERSONALITY
Cody's a calm and caring kind of guy, which most people can tell even at a glance. He's extremely modest, never wanting to steal the light away from someone who seldom gets it, and always tries to give back more than he receives.

Cody doesn't enjoy cameras or publicity, rather choosing to hang out with friends, which he is quick to make. When he finds the time to, he likes to head to the forest to think and relax. Thinking everyone as equals, he doesn't judge anyone too harshly.

He likes to crack jokes and be a wise guy every now and then. And by every now and then, I mean a bunch. Cody can be a leader in the most unlikely and most treacherous of times, although it may put his life at risk.

Cody jumps at the chance to battle, and loves to fight. Cody is always cool and collected when something unfortunate occurs, although he will most likely be grim.

Cody can blow up at some points, since he finds it difficult to maintain a calm personality all the time, but tends to go to the forest to let off some steam, using his powers at his will. While it may drain his energy, it also drains his frustration.

FATAL FLAW
Cody has a tendency to hold grudges. Even though they may be insignificant, if Cody finds that insignificant something relates to his friends and family, watch your back for vines that intend to strangle you. Cody has a way to blow things out of proportion with things like that, and can be very skilled with those vines.

WEAPONS
Cody's talents are the most effective weapon of his in battle, as those are the ones that come naturally to him, as thinking does to any normal mortal. However, during his first few days at CHB, he was trained to use a celestial bronze sword as well as a knife. Cody caught on quickly, and does occasionally still practice with those selected weapons. Although Cody is not as skilled with the sword and knife as he is with his natural abilities, it's definitely pretty close.

ABILITIES
Cody has the ability of chlorokinesis. To put it simply, this means that Cody can mentally control any plant to fit his needs; its growth, its attacks, where it's placed, and everything in between. On top of that, Cody is a fantastic cook. He can combine a large assortment of ingredients that normally would not go together well at all, and make it so that it feels like a piece of heaven socked you in the face.

AGE & BIRTHDAY
16 years – born on January 4, 1995

GENDER
Male

CAMP INFORMATION
Sam has lived four full years at Camp Half Blood, and was claimed by Hermes just a few short days after arriving. It’s not too difficult to assume that Sam is a year-rounder.

MORTAL FAMILY
Sam’s mother, Julie Beckham, had been working happily at home, writing scripts for countless plays, movies, and TV shows before Sam’s powers emerged. But when she saw her son’s powers rise, she couldn’t help but go a little crazy. After that she was always frantic, and always a little jumpy, screaming whenever she heard a rustle in the bushes, or saw an unfamiliar shadow. Sam didn’t spend as much time with her after that, rather choosing to roam the town on his own.

GOD PARENT
Hermes, God of Messengers and Thievery

BRIEF HISTORY
Sam’s life was not so contrary to any other half blood, with the exception that he grew up in California near Hollywood and attracted a ton of monsters by day. Sam was typically independent and steered clear of his mother most of the time, even before she went a little crazy, which probably wasn’t the wisest idea. But who could blame him? He was pretty young at the time.

Sometimes, Sam was inexplicably found at museums in rooms surrounded by Greek statues with a giant hellhound breathing down his neck. Another time, he was unfairly busted for stealing a diamond from the jewelry store when just a few moments before, a chimera was bearing down on him with the same diamond in his mouth. It wasn’t very pleasant to hold the diamond after that, and Sam decided to mention that to a very baffled looking cop, who had just witnessed a huge “alligator thing”, as the cop later stated it, explaining to the rest of the police men who were all looking down at a young boy, no more than eight years old. Apparently that cop was fired a few days after that incident.

When Sam was caught stealing some money from the bank, he did some hard thinking, and came up with the conclusion that he most certainly did not was to be put in jail. Oddly enough, once he wished he could get the heck out of there, he vanished, like the wind had picked him up and carried him out the door in a split second.

Sam became to understand his powers and tried to harness them, trying to put them to good use. Unfortunately, not all the situations ended well. Once, a large, cloaked figure came at Sam with a silver gleaming knife. Sam decided then and there to “poof” back to his house. He failed, and wound up on the guy’s back. Yeah… it wasn’t a picnic for the man either.

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE
At first glance, Sam seems like your average Hermes kid; a sly look, arched light eyebrows with a sneaky bright glint in his hard, hazel eyes, and dark sand colored hair. With a somewhat apparent six pack, Sam stands at 6’0” even. His dark sandy hair flops down his ears and halts just a little before his eyes, edging over his eyebrows just the slightest bit.

Sam’s face always has an insightful expression on it, like he’s always thinking one hundred steps ahead into the future. He tends to wear flip flops no matter the weather, and grey sweat pants or faded out jeans with a black T-shirt on. He has a lean, nimble build, although he has packed up some muscles from the situations prior to his arrival at Camp.

PERSONALITY
Sam’s a very sarcastic, fun-loving guy. He has a wry yet amusing sense of humor, and typically uses it whenever someone needs a pick-me-up. He’s a very outgoing person and loves risky adventures. While he can be pretty easy going, Sam can also be as stubborn as a mule and always sticks to what he thinks is right.

Sam enjoys pulling pranks on people who he feels need it, and loves to make people laugh and smile; it’s what he lives for. Although he may seem like a class clown, he can be very serious when something goes wrong, and knows how to handle things well in those scenarios.

FATAL FLAW
As said previously, Sam can be particularly stubborn, and regardless if everyone else might know and tell him what he’s thinking is not a good decision, he follows through with it anyway, potentially putting him into fatal situations.

WEAPONS
Sam’s pretty talented with any weapon, and usually can find an assortment of weapons in any given pocket of his, shrunken down, courtesy of the Hephaestus campers. When exposed to light, the weapon chosen will enlarge, making it easy to carry on a plane, without having to go through all that new high-tech security.

ABILITIES
Sam has the ability to move from location to location in the blink of an eye, regardless of the distance. However, he must be extremely focused if he wants to go particularly far. After long distance travels by these means, Sam is mostly depleted of energy, and cannot go further.

He is also pretty fast and agile, and can move with easy with most any weapon in his hand. On top of that, he’s a pretty skilled swordsman.

AGE & BIRTHDAY
17 years of age – born on April 17, 1994

GENDER
Male

CAMP INFORMATION
Jake started camp when he was just nine, and has spent 7 full years at Camp. As if it wasn’t obvious enough, Jake is a year-rounder, and was claimed by Zeus approximately nine days after his arrival.

MORTAL FAMILY
Jake has no family. Everyone; his mortal brothers and sister, his step father, and his mother, all died in a fire when he was nine.

GOD PARENT
Zeus, God of the Sky & Lord of the Gods

HISTORY
Jake has somewhat of a complicated history. Since he had no family when he was nine, he decided to run away, escaping from the cops who had arrived and tried to contain him. While Jake didn’t want to cause any trouble for the cops, he just couldn’t handle being around all of the commotion, hustle, and bustle. He didn’t want to go to his family’s funeral if there was one. On the contrary, he wanted to just hide and vanish from the face of the Earth. So off he ran into the streets, and away up into the nearby mountains, hoping desperately no one would find him. Of course, as this so often happens, he was wrong. A couple days later, he was found.

Well, a person didn’t really find him; it was a monster. Tough luck.
A lone hydra was just walking daintily around the mountain crest. Meanwhile, Jake was hiding in a cave, fending for himself. Fortunately, he was quite capable of doing so. He had spent those few days in the mountains trying to figure out his newfound powers, and quite enjoyed zapping animals with small electric shocks. He knew how to cook them because he had taken this camping trip a year earlier and the teachers had taught him how. Then they were killed one night when a hellhound snuck up on the camp… but that’s another story.

Anyway, when Jake saw the hydra, being a sane boy of nine years of age, he yelled in fright. I mean, wouldn’t you if you saw a freakish creature like the hydra? Don’t look at me like I’m crazy. Regardless, the hydra turned Jake’s way and decided that he looked pretty delicious, and smelled like a child of the Big Three. The hydra pounced, and Jake covered his head with his hands.

Lucky for him his demigod powers decided to kick in at the last second. The last thing Jake saw was a flash of bright light and the monster go flying off into the distance, howling in pain. Then he blacked out.

When he awoke, he was in what looked like a hospital tent, being looked over by a doctor. There was a strange twitch in the doctor’s eyes, as if he was nervous about something. The doctor looked at his wristwatch and mumbled something incoherently, which Jake caught snippets of. It sounded like: “Running out of time….” Curious, Jake lifted his head from the pillow and propped himself up with his elbow.
“Eh, what’s up Doc?” Jake said, grinning at his quote from Bugs Bunny. The doctor jumped and looked at him, his eyes flickering to his watch every few seconds.
“You seem to be better. Good. We have to get you to a real place of hospitality… this forest is no good.” The doctor clicked his feet together. This man certainly was giving Jake a sense of fidgetiness. Jake shook his head. “So we’re in a forest?” Jake asked, raising his eyebrows. “I thought I was up in the mountains. How did you even find me? And who are you? Why aren’t there any more doctors here?” The questions just kept piling up in Jake’s mind.

The doctor muttered something like a curse under his breath, and tried to compose himself, which worked for about three seconds. Then he looked at the watch one more time and completely broke into panic. Something like a roar sounded far off in the distance.
“Come on, we have to get you out of here. Now.” The doctor said, grabbing Jake and hoisting him up. The doctor ran outside, holding Jake’s arm in a metal grip. Outisde the tent, the only thing Jake saw was a bunch of trees and a bright SUV. Curious, Jake was about to ask another question when a roar sounded once again, sounding closer than before. Yelping like any certified doctor shouldn’t, Doc. Tugged Jacob towards the SUV, propped him up in the passenger’s seat, even though he was too small and young, probably breaking some laws. The doctor moved quickly into the driver’s seat, turned on the car, and floored it.

The last thing he saw was the doctor’s coat flying off out into the air, courtesy of the open window, seeing some dark fur on the doctor’s arms become apparent, a dark grey blur in the rear view mirror, and seeing his own hand point out of the open window of its own accord, point to the grey blur he knew was behind the SUV, and a bright flash of light.

Jake woke up at the Infirmary at CHB. There, the satyr who had been his so called “doctor” told him about everything, with Chiron stopping by and confirming all of the facts. He’s been here ever since.

PHYSICAL APPEARANCE
Jake is a pretty average height for his age, standing at around 5’ 7” with lengthy dark brown hair that just halts short of his eyebrows, flipping to one side or the other on its own. He has intense, warm, and yet oddly calculating bright blue eyes, as if he’s judging your every move intently, but still being his crazy and kind self.

His skin has a slightly pale tinge to it, but it’s not particularly apparent. Jake generally wears a lopsided grin on his face, smiling from ear to ear when he’s in a good mood.

Jacob hates just dress fancily, and isn’t a fan when others do it either, unless it’s for a ceremony of some sort. Jake doesn’t wear one specific thing, rather doing something different every day. Although he typically wears a striped sweatshirt of some color.

PERSONALITY
Jake is a very easy-to-be-around guy. He typically doesn’t pressure others, unless it’s for them to do well in some sort of competition or something. While Jake is particularly competitive, he doesn’t get worked up too easily, nor does he always stay mellow and relaxed. He has the capability and the interest to say something insightful on any matter at hand, and doesn’t like to go unheard. He will go to extremes for his voice to be heard loud and clear.

Jake would rather speak for himself and for others, and stands up for what he believes in. Though he’s a very independent soul, he loves to hand out with friends and have fun.
He is extremely loyal to his close friends, and would go to the ends of the earth to protect them, especially his family.

While there is that good side to Jake, there is also the bad side: the cold, calculating, and cruel side. When something ticks him off, you better stand out of his way or be fried. He can be stubborn at those times, and refuses to believe anything better of any person that gets on his bad side.

Other than that, Jake is totally outgoing, trying to give 110% for everything, including sleep. He never backs down form a difficult situation, and loves challenges.
Jake loves to make jokes and laugh at himself if he makes a mistake. He has a dry, sarcastic, and yet laughable sense of humor that makes a room brighten in some cases, and darken in others.

FATAL FLAW
His loyalty to his close friends and family is Jake’s fatal flaw. Ever since his family died in the fire, he has wanted to love more people that he believes are dear to him. Unfortunately, when those specific people disappear… it gets harder and harder each time.

WEAPONS
Jake has a silver wristwatch that, when the hour changer is pressed, changes into a celestial bronze sword. Jake also uses his natural talents as another one of his weapons.

ABILITIES
With some amount of effort, Jake can produce bolts of electricity, in order to use them either for a weapon, or just to fry something with to make a fire. Jake also has minimal control over the weather, preferring rain over anything else. In addition, Jake can also play the drums pretty amazingly.

I'm going to be bringing some characters back and fix them up. It's definitely likely that I'll bring Kenny back. (: Not at this very moment, since my fingers are tired from all that typing - but he might be my next one to jazz up.
