Arthur McAllister Friends call me Artie and I am 15 almost 16 years old. i was born a child of Zeus, and have never been to camp for any amount of time. To the outside world I'm just a Student soon to be camper. As far as the DCA is concerned I'm Unknown. they say i resemble Charlie Hunnam but i'm far better looking! The code name my handler goes by is Adam, who has been rping for 11 yrs, and have 2 other characters called Adam Argent-Faust and Archer Kaplan. [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, border: solid #ffffff 0px;] [atrb=border,0,true] ------------------------------------- personality ------------------------------------- Arthur is a good kid at heart but life hasn't been exactly forgiving for the lad. He shoulders his turmoil pretty well usually but inside he is and always has been a raging ball of emotions. He's never been sure why he's so extra sensitive and is, in all honesty, a little embarrassed that he wears his heart on his sleeve. He is however like most teenagers in the way that he just wants to be normal and be like everyone else. Just a speck in the crowd and one of the boys. He's the sort of guy to follow the rules and float under the radar and subtlety is his usual method. Unfortunately inside of him is also a warrior with a strong spirit and he can get a bit indignant from time to time which is what commonly leads him into trouble. Despite all of that he is rather moral and good at picking out the right thing to do most of the time. He's pretty shy and tough to get out of his shell because he's more than a little bit of a loner. It could also be said that Arthur is too busy trying to pretend to be something he is not and because of that he isn't sure of himself or who he is. Time will truly tell what kind of person he actually is. strengths & weaknesses + Righteous and courageous + Quick learner + Great athlete and natural combatant + Strong and well acquainted with his limits + Decent Leader despite himself - Hesitant - Sees too much good in others - Quick to anger - Basically worthless when he's hungry - Unsure of himself likes & dislikes + Flying + Being alone + Eating + a healthy competition - Caves - People comparing him to his father or doting over his parentage - Letting people down fears & goals • Lashing out with his powers and hurting the wrong person • Being left in charge. • Meeting his father and finding him...disappointed. • Living up to the ideal of a good demigod hero • Making it to 30. history ------------------------------------- god parent: Zeus mortal parent(s): Jenny McAllister sibling(s): hometown: Seattle,WA sexual orientation: Undetermined. Arthur McAllister was conceived after a man fell for a mortal woman whose smile could warm like the sun and whose laugh was infectious. It wasn't hard to see why the king of the gods fell in love with Jenny McAllister but that didn't mean he could stay that way and as always, he was forced to leave her after a time and stop his affair for Hera as usual was growing suspicious every time she could not find her husband. This resulted in a typical demigod's upbringing: a single mother raising an only child. She did a damn good job too. Adam never really wanted anything more than what he had. He loved his mother and she loved him and helped him to learn right from wrong and how to enjoy life. It was everything someone whose life was rich with love could possibly ask for. However that didn't mean Adam's life was exactly simple. Seeing as he had this issue with reading and holding still and keeping his mouth shut in school, it got him in trouble a lot because people liked to poke fun at him and call him stupid or a fidget and tell him he was a terrible little boy. So Arthur would get upset and when he got upset he ended up getting in fights with people even though he knew it was wrong. Of course these weren't just normal rough and tumble fights though. The wind tended to pick up and the hair stood up on people's bodies when Arthur got angry, carrying his scent far and wide. So every time his mom got wind of Arthur getting in a fight, it was time for him to switch schools and so it went. She never got mad at him for these things, after all boys would be boys. Arthur felt worse and worse everytime he changed schools however because he could tell this wasn't easy for his mom and she was so sweet, she deserved a little easy. So Arthur started reading self help books about dealing with bullies and anger management and for a time this helped. Fast forward to the end of middle school and you'll find Arthur on the flag football team as the quarterback. Well it was here that Arthur started to get more than a little suspicious of himself. He had of course heard of the anti-demigod propaganda that was circulating around. So when he started to notice that when he had to count to ten or take a few deep breaths, the hair on his arms would stand up or that leaves or grass would get blown in the direction he was facing as the wind blew with his breath, he started to wonder why that was. He eventually decided to ask his mom about his father for the first time in his life. It was the first time ever that he felt that his mom was lying to him. Ever. All the pieces were there in his eyes but well it was his mom so what more could he do than accept her word? She told him that his father was pretty famous once but after his fifteen minutes, he found her and then he decided to choose a different life for himself and left her with Arthur. He wasn't sure how to feel though and his moodiness settled back in just before they packed up their lives and moved to NYC. It wasn't long after they'd arrived that Arthur came home one day to discover their apartment in shambles and his mom missing. She never turned up again and he wound up in foster care. He took it hard and every other day it seemed like he was in detention for fighting or some sort of attitude problem. He however, did manage to keep his act together enough to make the football team's JV squad as starting QB and has basically been coasting his way through his days of late. Now monsters and mortals lurk around every corner waiting to expose him for what he might be. |
