Riordanverse oc week: day 2, 3 &4: Origin and abilities.
I decided to make these days together because it's kind of a pack. AND NOW WE HAVE DRAWINGS . So here we have:
I think Grace is the most interesting one to talk about origin.
She didn't have a house as a child since 7 years old. Did she run away? Did their mortals guardians kicked them out of the house? Who knows. They were on the streets for a long time and I like to say that they found Magnus at some point but the places and times won't match so I'll keep that on an AU.
That whole time they were kind of proving themselves to Hecate. Kind of similar to what Romans demigods do. They have a pretty sense of preservation, though.
Sometimes they stayed on strangers houses. Those people were good people and it wasn't just a random event. When things got hard, when winter came, Grace always had a good place to stay. Maybe it wasn't the best. But she always had food on her plate and never had a very bad time. Kind of a miracle, if we mortals see it from or point of view.
Somewhere in between, when Grace was about 9 or 10 years old, monsters started to noticed them properly. So it was time to go to camp. They deserve it. At this point they didn't knew exactly that they're a demigod. They knew there is magic on the world. They knew that things they read on those children books had some truth.
It was a cold night. Snowy night. They were staying on a park, under a tree. Someone passes near and notice that first: there's a child alone, second: they're not using shoes or a jacket and it's cold.
Grace wasn't cold. They were pretty warm, actually. Magic keeps them warm. And that catch the attention of the demigod in front of them: Nico di Angelo.
I MEAN I KNOW IT'S KIND OF CLICHE BUT. C'MON. IF I WAS A FAN OF MYTHOLOGY AND THEN BOOM, A SON OF HADES HIMSELF SHOWS UP, NOT ONLY BEING A DEMIGOD BUT A WAR HERO, AND TELLS ME I'M A DEMIGOD, I'LL BE VERY HAPPY. Let the child be happy. Shush.
So it didn't take a lot to convince Grace to go to camp. Neither to them to get used to camp. Dream come true, actually.
And that's as far as I have for now.
As a child of Hecate, they're good with spells and magic. So that's kind of a unlimited thing here, I'm not going to elaborate but it's not all mighty and so. They're good enough as any kid of Hecate.
They can sense ghosts. And also comunicate with them. They don't know about this, no one ever pointed out that they're talking 'alone' sometimes.
Technically they can shadow travel. And actually? I never put them to try so I don't think they know they can.
They have a very good control at nature spells. Like. The elements and that stuff.
Mist control too but they need to practice more.
I don't know a lot about weapons but I think they'll use something really weird that no one knows about but it's easy to use. Preferible something light and small.
I think they'll be good at use a spear too. Idk.
You know I really like the concept of non-so-bright demigods. Those who aren't that powerful and can pass perfectly as a mortal without problem. You know, those with a broke monster radar, low dislexia and so. But that also makes them kind of a weird on their own world (the camp).
I really don't have much to say about his origin. He didn't catch that much of attention of the whole demigod stuff. He went to camp only when Hades claimed him. He prefers to stay at camp the whole year, but being honest he just spends the time that he doesn't have school.
He was claimed after the whole 'gods have to claim their children' stuff, so he was at camp when The Lost Hero happens (important thing on his history ☝️‼️).
He's my boring looking guy, I love him.
Did I leave clear that he doesn't like the whole drama about being a demigod? Yes? Okey, moving on.
He's good with archery and kind of good with the swords.
He always carry with himself a dagger that Nico gave him, even when he's not good with it.
He's so prone at having accidents while using weapons. He's more danger to himself than the monsters ever will be.
He doesn't have control of undead or necromancy abilities. He can sense ghosts but not so bright at it. He's good at sensing the life auras, though.
Shadow travel (Not allowed to do it anymore because he overdid it and almost died).
Fun fact: shadow travel makes his eyes and root(? Of his hair become slightly darker, something related to the shadows or something like that (again: do not let him use shadow travel. He has a boyfriend with a bronce dragon for something).
He has a LOT of geokinesis abilities.
Make him really mad and you'll provoque a slight tremor(?.
I mean he's not good at sensing strong emotions so he's kind of good at keeping himself calm. But when he feels strong emotions. Oh boy. Thanks gods it doesn't happen often.
He doesn't know how to use his powers.
He doesn't want to learn.
COLD FEET. COLD HANDS. THIS GUY IS A LIVING ICE. HE'S LACKING OF ANY KIND OF WARMTH.
(the last one may be related to the anemia. Don't tell Will, Nico and Allan had passed it to being a child of Hades thing).
This guy is sleepy all the time. People is starting to think is a child of Hades thing because Nico is the same.
He has a slightly (NOT SLIGHTLY AT ALL. A VERY STRONG ONE) aura of fear sometimes. He says people are exaggerating. They're not. Allan can be scary sometimes, he's a son of one of the big three after all.
This might or not might be an ability of him but sometimes he gets visits (possessed) by this guy who knows a thing or two about prophecies. It happens in dreams.
(the last one only makes sense with a fanfic of mine but I'm too lazy to finish it. It usually doesn't happen on a daily basis).
Let's say that he's the only one of the group with a really "present" dad.
He knew Dionysus since he was a kid. He knew the guy and sometimes he visited him when he was little. He never understood why he left, though.
When he started to grow older, those visits started to stop. He became a little upset about his dad being like that, leaving him and his mom alone. His mother always told him that his dad was a great man and he wasn't trying to be rude. He just couldn't be there.
Morgan didn't understood until he became 12.
And oh gods. The horrors.
He wasn't that scared about the monsters. No. His mother taught him about the Greek world, more than he thought it was necessary. But then things began to make sense. The myths. The gods. The monsters. He wasn't crazy and he knew it.
But his dad. Oh boy. That was the most traumatic event of his life. This gremlin wasn't the same man he remembered (he was). If someone tells him that they look alike, he's gonna puke.
Dionysus is not a bad guy. That's why he didn't took Morgan under the camp embrace before. He didn't wanted to make his little theater obsessed boy prone to danger. He knew how the gods were. He knew that there's little he can do once his child is claim.
But then the battle of the labyrinth happens.
He can't loose another kid.
But some part of him didn't wanted to stay away from his child. Some selfish part of him wanted to stay close to him. A part of him wanted to light up a little the cabin 12.
And that's why Morgan came to camp.
He's VERY GOOD at archery.
No one knows how or why. He's just good at it.
He's an awesome actor too. This may be related to being child of Dionysus. Mr. D thinks his son it's just that awesome.
Good singer too. That has nothing to do with his heritage.
Did I mention that he's also good looking —? Okay, okay, I shut up.
He has the same thing that sometimes children of Ares have(?. The one about descontrol of emotions to people near them. Idk how to explain it. Some emotions near him are prone to feel stronger than they are, related to the madness thing.
He can slightly control some plants ☝️‼️
Aaaaand I think that's all. See u next time.
