Man I’m uploading a lot this week--And I’m so happy! I can promote his final colors now~! Courtesy of Nick Fury, Hamid knows when to back out of a losing battle.

Hamid, you disphit, your girlfriend is a counselor

He’s a living relic in the Hecate cabin, so he understandable wants to stay living.

Hamid// 2. Their emotional/moral weak spots// 12. Grudges and vendettas// 13. What gets them flustered// 17. Regrets// 20. What-ifs/Alternate Timelines

2. Their emotional/moral weak spots:-He pushes any pure feelings of sadness or regret down or laughs off his own faults as something he meant to do–puts himself down for other’s benefits until later it comes out during his secluded moments. He’s a horrible person when drunk and there’s a reason why you should drink in company while having fun instead of solitude and sadness and he’s the textbook picture of it. He also believes if you’re stupid enough to die or put yourself on the line of fire, then you might as well just sink or swim without his help. He’d rather stay alive for another day, thanks.

12. Grudges and vendettas:-Has an ever lasting grudge against the empousa that cornered him into escaping into that Hotel that pretty much ruined his old life. Probably not getting enough therapy for being emotionally constipated.

13. What gets them flustered:-Actual compliments, genuine care for his well-being. He’s used to being put down or berated a lot so it’s very overwhelming and confusing for him to get a “Nice job” or something of the like and he just goes like “….you know you were talking to me right???? -what is this tomfoolery-” He’s used to others not caring about him at all or just brushing him off as an annoyance and feels more confident in those situations because he knows how to react right away. Actual care, though, just leaves him a standing-blushing mess and squinty-eyed at the person giving it like he’s just waiting for them to turn back into being a jerk to him.

17. Regrets:-Telling his dad he’d be right back from camp when he wouldn’t be. -Trying to hit on 20th century camp counselors at the tender age of an out of place 19th century 14-year-old (he blames puberty for that one).

20. What-ifs/Alternate Timelines:-In another life where he wasn’t preserved in the hotel, he and his father would still have their antiques store together; He’d be more confident and actually a more pleasant person to talk to….Would still use magic to keep himself out of trouble/dying, but he’d live to be really old because of it. Grandpa!Hamid would be that kind of grandpa that magically pulls a quarter out of your ear and is a delightfully senile old man.

One of my more recent boys, is Hamid Zaman.

He’s a son of Hecate who got stuck in the Lotus Casino for awhile from the early seventies until nearing the 2010’s. Honestly it’s a wonder how he got out, considering he likes attention and usually uses his magic to draw a crowd and earn cash. He’s a funny guy with no regrets, smokes quite often either for his own relaxation or to help with his magic, and always self-perseveres.

He doesn’t like to die and will do anything to keep that from happening. Interpret that as you will. He hangs around Joey a lot and Chantal–much to her chagrin.

He also knows a few nymphs, mostly lampades, and yes Esha is one of them. He finds her amusing and sometimes as an absent-minded mother figure.

More details on him later when i settle him out, and actually do a full body. He took over a year to get right mostly because of his hair. He has that weird Harry Potter Growth complex with it, that no matter how many times you cut and style it, it always changes on you and it’s back to the barber. Hamid likes it, I don’t but what are you gonna do?

Despite his appearance, Hamid has really good handwriting.
