Name: Keres Alexandros
Age: 19
Year: Sophomore
Lineage: Daughter of Enyalios, Greek god of war
Species: Demigod/Human
Abilities: Keres has most the standard abilities most descendants of war deities have. Her instincts are razor sharp, she is stronger than the average demigod and she found once she entered Half-Blood University she could learn to use almost any weapon within an hour or two of practice. It was all second nature.
Appearance:
Personality: Keres keeps true to her fathers intense nature, the god of war instilling a more animalistic nature in most of his children and Keres was no different. She found aggressive emotions to be far easier to deal with than fluffier ones. She is possessive, territorial and quick to action in the face of dangers of all kinds. She doesn't make friends easily but when she does they are hers to protect, no matter what. A few of her closest friends describe her to be like a wolf or large dog, dangerous at first but once she warms up she is loyal to a fault.

Due to the powerful nature of her mother the powers she has inherited a plethora of skills, many of which she hasn't discovered yet. At this point in time Farren has begun learning how to harness her powers of fertility through botany, making plants grow was something she found out she could do in her sophomore year. Matchmaking was something she didn't realize was a divine ability until a seer pointed out her connection creations in the strings of life, Farren had created new connections out of nothing without even trying, and this was a power that could become extremely dangerous if she misused it. Lighter of the group was her dancing skills, her mother instilled a deep love for the artform in her very being and many different styles came naturally to her. It was cathartic.

Appearance: Adi is a beautiful young girl, dark and wild. She is tall for her age and athletic, with long limbs and big hands. She has small ringlets of curly ink black hair, that stops just before her shoulders and often get frizzy. She wears it out in her natural afro-like style. She has been known to dye it bright colors, right now she has turquoise ends. Her skin is warmly tanned. Her eyes are round and a dark brown. She has soft features, rounded cheeks with left over baby fat, and a wide, button nose.
Personality: Adaliah is loud and smart and full of life. She is anything but quiet, slightly clumsy, and sharp as a tac. She has wit beyond measure, and her cleverness often surprises people, seeing as she is so silly most of the time. Her intelligence is often hidden, as she tends to be bored in class. Though she loves learning, she might not be cut out for it. She is the type of girl that teachers love and hate, clever beyond belief but known for not really trying. Adi is more likely to be seen telling a joke than studying.
Adaliah is a kind girl, genuine, and down to earth. She is the type of person who knows everyone by name and makes a habit of talking to anyone and everyone. Adi tends to act as a peacekeeper, and mediator of sorts, but is ruled by her emotions and therefore can be hotheaded as times. It is rare that she becomes anywhere near serious, but if she gets angry watch out. She is sarcastic as hell and a real sweet talker. Adi has a way with words, she's good at manipulating them to her advantage. Give her a minute and she can talk herself out of almost anything. She is protective to the point of motherly, fierce and unforgiving in how she looks out for those that she loves. She is stubborn as a bull and not afraid to stand up for her beliefs.
Adi seeks adventure, isn't afraid to get her hands dirty, and is known for bending the rules. Her silliness to try new things borders on reckless, but she is sensible enough never to put herself or her loved ones in danger. She is strong, a fighter with a never say die attitude. Adi has a natural charm to her, she oozes carefree confidence without even realizing it. Comfortable in who she is, Adi has never tried to be anything more or less than just Adi.
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual
History: Adi was born and raised in central Morocco. Her mother, the God, was not around much, or at all, after her first birthday, so it was just her and her father. Her father was a smart man from a wealthy family, and by the time he had Adi, he had a strong career in the business world of Casablanca. This was lucky, as when he turned up with a child and no wife, he was disowned.
Her and her father were comfortable, but Adi was always quite isolated, with no other family and very few friends due to her father's overprotectiveness. She got into a good deal of trouble as a teenager, but other than that had a generally normal childhood. Her father kept her godly heritage a secret to her, so it was quite the surprise when she got to invite to HBU. However, Adi always knew she was special, and she is excite to discover her magical side.

Age: 21
Year: 3
Lineage: Daughter of Hephaestus, Greek God of fire and the forge
Species: Human demigod
Abilities: Superior talent with all weapons, but particularly swords. Immunity to fire/being burnt and pyrokinesis that has been slowly developing over her years at school
Appearance: Viola is lean and athletic, standing just over 5'8". She has curly dark red hair, thick and falling just past her shoulders. She nearly always wears her hair tied up. She has a thin, angular face and pale skin with freckles staining her cheeks. She rarely smiles but when she does it's with a full mouth of teeth and the stretching of her plump red lips. Her eyes are almond shaped and dark blue, with thick eyelashes framing them. Her nose is slightly pointed.
Personality: Viola is headstrong, calculated, and intelligent. She has a generally cold exterior, calm, measured, and collected, but melts around the few that she cares for. While guarded, Viola is extremely loyal and faithful to those who have gained her trust. She can be a bit harsh or aggressive at times, and despite her skill for planning and strategy her hot-headedness can sometimes get her in trouble. Viola is observant and blunt, she has no qualms about being disliked, but is generally polite. She has a knack for noticing things that others don't want her to know and then calling them out on it. She likes to know what is going on with others, she likes to be in control, but is rarely in tune with her own emotions. Outwardly she can be taken as mean, but in private she is loving and soft.
Viola is smart and hardworking. She is quick on her feet and quick with her mind. She is withdrawn and quiet, and is more comfortable quietly watching than joining the conversation. Not to say that Viola can't speak up, because she does, and she will speak her mind when needed. Fiercely independent, Viola prefers to be on her own. She is brave beyond belief, and can be cunning and ruthless as well. She possesses certain self-destructive qualities that have gotten her into trouble before.
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual
History: Viola was raised by single mother Catherine in suburbia. Her mother married her step-father when Viola was six, and by the time she was ten she had two younger brothers, Adam who was seven years younger than her, and Julian nearly ten years in her junior. She had a comfortable childhood, only somewhat bothered by a birth father who was never around and a step-father who was kind, but not extremely loving. Her mother was always looking after her, and her brothers were her joy.
At 16, Viola began to act out, having strange dreams and visions of a world on fire. Her limbs itch for battle, and she would pick fights at school just to be able to have an outlet for all of her energy. This went on for about at year, until is culminated in a late night fight with her mother. She had come into the house after curfew, and Catherine had waited up to confront her. Anger building, Viola had made her way into the kitchen yelling, and suddenly, the stove had exploded in flames. The house had caught fire like it was made of kindling, and Viola was severely burnt all along her left side. Catherine, her step-father, and Adam all made it out, but Julian had to be rescued by the firefighters, and later died from his injuries. Even though her mother assured her it wasn't her fault, Viola blamed herself for her brother's death.
It was a blessing when a year later, her acceptance to HBU came, along with an explanation of what was going on with her. Catherine always told her that her father had been something not of this world, but she had never believed her. Desperately wanting to get away from home, Viola left for school and never looked back.

Appearance:
Spoiler:
Personality: Victor is actually quite a relaxed student despite his lineage. You would expect a son of the Goddess of Victory could be on the more intense side.

Roommate: Xenos Inito
Dorm Room: Main Hall, Floor 2, Room 12, Double
Name: Xenos Inito (Goes by x, Ze, or Omar/O) Age 21 Year Sophmore Lineage: Specific Lineage unknown. There are many ideas but, none are certain. Pooka tend to be a bit of a mystery, just as they like it.
Species Pookas
(The Pooka, or in Irish Puca, (goblin) is a phantom fairy creature that features in Celtic folklore and fairytales of Ireland. A similar fairy entity appears in the mythology of Scotland, Wales, Cornwall, Channel Islands, and Brittany. Often thought of as an animal spirit, some accounts believe it gets its name from Poc, meaning he-goat in Irish. In fact, Pooka is a changeling and can take an animal or human form Known for its cunning and wile as well as lies and deception, Pooka's archetype is trickster.)
Abilities Temperature Immunity
Temperatures don't effect him as heavily as they would other creatures. Fire Immunity
Omar cannot be harmed by flame.
Setting himself on fire is his favorite party trick. Shapeshifting
Omar can shift into some symbolic animals (exclusively herbivores)
He also has a form that appears as a goblin-like creature, most believe this is Omar's true for but this is unknown for certain. Night Vision
Omar can see in the dark and has eyes that reflect like a nocturnal animal when a light is shown on them.
Appearance
Xenos stands at 5'8 and looks as chaotic as his personality, often wearing clashing patterns. His (usually) brown hair is often unkempt and wild looking, matching with doe-like bright green eyes. He doesn't like gender roles and if he is in the mood he may dress more-like a female and does rather love lipstick. He likes to dye his hair different and fun colors.
Personality
Omar carries a very chaotic energy. He is not the kind of person you would invite out if you didn't want attention on you. Not that he craves it or anything but he does naturally attract it with his eccentric approach to life.
He doesn't necessarily even realize he's being inappropriate the majority of the time. To be honest even if he did he probably wouldn't care. Despite his chaotic nature Omar is an ambivalent being. What you see at the surface(with intentions)is what he is truly giving. He doesn't exist to be benevolent or malevolent and harbors no ulterior motives to move either way. He is just here to have a good time and his intentions are often harmless. Not to say he wouldn't accidentally set the house on fire... but at least he didn't mean to!
Sometimes Omar will make extravagant lies just to see how far he can pull your leg. His favorite is to claim the body he inhabits is one that he possessed and that he is a purebred demonic entity. He carries this lie so much so that if you are someone who will take a person at face value you would never know this is one of the lies he has spun.
Sometime you need to trick him into telling you the truth by disorganizing questions into a conundrum.
Sexual Orientation: Pansexual Clubs:
He has been kicked out of most of the clubs he has joined, though the Nature Club has seemed to keep him around so far. I guess there is less to destroy outside in the forest Roommate: Victor Grae Lasky

Personality: Cold, calm, and calculative; Bahamut is a rather diligent individual who revels in understanding the vast world around him and how it works despite his rebellious tendencies. While kind and open minded at heart, he is careful to those he allows within his inner circle, choosing to interpret one through his own eyes before wearing his heart on his sleeve. But once that trust is gained, he can be strictly loyal and protective. Although not overly social, he enjoys getting to understand the individuals around him, eager to broaden his horizons and learn from the perspectives of others.

Misc: Seems surprisingly partial to animals
Sexual Orientation: Straight male
Clubs: Swimming club, War theory club
Roommate:
Dorm Room: Main Hall, Floor 3, Room 22, Single
Name: Christian Moreau Age: 19
Year: Freshman
Lineage: Son of Mercury
Species: Demigod/Halfblood
Abilities:
Lockpick: Christian has the ability to bypass locks, both physical and digital. The likelihood of his success depend on how secure the lock is. At present, he has little trouble unlocking a regular house lock, but would have a difficult time opening a medium-security safe.
Message: If Christian points directly at another person or entity, he can direct a message to them. He has to have his finger pointed at them and whisper the message, but it will be heard clearly by the recipient, regardless of language or distance.
Dash: Christian is much quicker than the general population is even able to achieve. He can acquire and maintain a 25 mile per hour speed, or achieve a 35 mile per hour speed at a full sprint.
Appearance:
Christian stands at 5'11" and is relatively slim. His skin is pale, and he has dirty blonde hair that fails to be orderly, usually having slightly overgrown before he gets it cut. He has eyes that are on the lighter shade of hazel.
Personality:
Christian is generally pretty laid back when he has the ability to be. Whenever he's in charge of something, his ease changes drastically, as he tends to overthink his responsibility in any given role. When it comes to relationships with other people, Christian tends to give trust relatively easily, but only on a surface level. Christian has an addictive personality, which can leave him yearning for a more simple time. So long as he copes correctly, he's capable of good things.
Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Misc. (Ex. Brief History, Family, etc.)
Christian was born to a French-Canadian woman in Quebec named Abella. She had a complicated history and was a reckless parent overall. His mother's reckless behavior coupled with the lack of any proper role model for him to follow left Christian to be a child who frequently acted out. His actions only made his situation with his mother worse.
In Quebec Christian often got himself into mischievous acts, some more innocent than others. What initially started with him and his friends committing harmless pranks would evolve into worse, from petty theft to eventually street fights. Leaving Quebec would be a very good turn in his life.
Clubs: War Theory
Roommate: Seraph
Dorm Room: Main Hall, Floor 3, Room 21, Double.
Name: Aura Breeze Age: 18 Year: Freshman Lineage: Daughter of Hel, Norse Goddess of Death Species: Demigod / Halfblood
Abilities:
Speaking to the death, seeing spirits, can see in the dark, some minor shadow magic, but she truly only has the basics down until now.
(Undiscovered powers include Necrokinesis, Virokinesis/virus manipulation, Cyrokinesis)
Appearance:
Bright red hair that falls over her shoulders in soft waves, forest green eyes, a heart-shaped face and freckles all over her skin. She has a slender figure and prefers to dress in mostly black outfits.
Personality:
A bit of a wild child, curious to a fault, but isn't as innocent as she looks. She knows her way around the world, at least that is what she likes to think. She isn't easy with trusts, even though her nature is quite happy-go-lucky like. Aura is a very emotional being, who can make rash decisions now and again. Adventurous in spirit and has a case of wanderlust. She isn't easily scared by the sight of dead things, though the spirits still occasionally startle her.
Sexual Orientation:
Bisexual
Misc. (Ex. Brief History, Family, etc.)
Aura is adopted by the human Annabella Breeze, in the Netherlands and her husband Todd Breeze. Todd died of mysterious circumstances and they never fully discovered why, when Aura was 7 years old. It was from a virus that was never explained. Later it came to light that Todd mistreated both his daughter and his wife, hit them, and abused them.
Her mother was a bit 'loose' so to say and had multiple boyfriends after Todd died. The girl didn't have an easy upbringing, learning to distrust people and to act on emotions and instinct. Let's just say that not all of her mother's boyfriends were as kind as they appeared. Annabella certainly had a taste for 'bad boys'.
Her mom didn't know where Aura came from, but the girl herself only discovered when she began seeing the death and they began talking to her when she was 10. This caused her to panic. The death told her who her real mother was. At first, she didn't believe them, but a full year of seeing the death regularly had her cave.
HBU was a way out of this situation for Aura and she gladly took it with two hands.

Roommate:
Dorm Room: Main Hall, Floor 3, Room 24, Double
Name: Serapheim "Seraph" Nicolellis Age: 19 Year: Freshman Lineage: Son of Selene, the Moon Goddess Species: Demigod / Halfblood
Abilities:
Healing (currently minor wounds, still learning), minor moon magic (water, light, snow), premonitions, other than that still discovering his powers.
Appearance:
Blonde hair that he likes to keep short, bright blue eyes, and a slender appearance.
Personality:
Serapheim is a rather silent person, rather at home reading a book. He isn't per definition an anti-social person, it's just that social interactions tire him out. He has a very big heart, wears his emotions on his sleeve, sometimes a bit naïve, and trusts people a little bit too easily.
He is honest and rather says what he thinks, sometimes a little bit too easily. If 'getting in trouble' was a personality trait, Seraph would possess it. It isn't as if he's stupid, it's more that he rather does first and think later (discovering that what he's done isn't the best idea after all). He absolutely loves music and dancing. It is his way of expressing himself even more.
He usually is quickly distracted, unless he 'hyper focuses' on something (his complete concentration would be on that thing at that moment). Also, he miiight have a small problem with authority.
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual
Misc. (Ex. Brief History, Family, etc.)
After being born, Serapheim was left in front of an orphanage in Norway, where he grew up. They never thought of his 'dreams' as weird, until they came true. The orphanage never got a clear explanation for the dreams.
Both his parents were completely out of the picture until he was 12 years old and his father finally found him. His father was called Sam Nicolellis, a man living in Greece who was able to track the 12-year-old Serapheim down.
Sam took Seraph into his own and for the 7 years after that, he treated him as his own. Serapheim never was fully sure that Sam was his father, but he vibed with it. Unknowingly, his father had enrolled him into HBU. The happenings around him never explained, as his human father couldn't find the right words. So he decided to let the school do it.
Other: Speaks Norse Clubs: Art Club, Dance club
Roommate: Christian
Dorm: Main Hall, Floor 3, Room 21, Double.
Name: Elodie Farrow Age: 20
Year: Sophomore
Lineage: Daughter of Melonie
Species: Human Demigod
Abilities: She is what is known as a Death Witch. She aids in helping souls who haven't passed through (whether due to improper funeral rights or unfinished business) and as such she can also speak with ghost rather easily, even those who have passed over if they wish to communicate. She is good at blending into the shadows, almost like a ghost, and she is learning to be highly proficient at glamours.
Appearance:
Her hair is natural passed down by her mother, thanks to Melinoe's split appearance.
Personality: Elodie is a very calm and kind person. She is fantastic at conflict resolution and helping people relax. She is incredibly empathetic and in tune to others emotions, to the point where it's a drain on her. Elodie is often tired as a result of this, and its common to find her sleeping wherever she can find a place to lie down.
Sexual Orientation: Homosexual
Misc. (Ex. Brief History, Family, etc.): - grew up with her mortal father and a step mother. She had a pretty great life growing up, honestly. She'd always known who she was, that she was a descendent of a goddess and so she didn't have the conflict and confusion of some of the other Demigods. She was lucky, as one of few children to a minor goddess, she actually received communication from her mother. The goddess would occasionally speak to her in dreams, or send messages, and so - started her training as a Death Witch at a young age. She's attending HBU with the hope of learning other skills, especially magic outside of the Death Witch job.

When the ship was attacked by an alien race known as the Pfhor, Roland and the ship's AI repelled the borders and eventually took the fight to the Pfhor homeworld. The Pfhor, in a desperate bid to fight back, unleashed a device that caused the sun to go supernova... and at the same time releasing an ancient godlike creature known as the W'rkncacnter. Forced to jump between different times and realities, Roland eventually sealed away the creature... but found himself stranded billions of years in the future. When all hope seemed lost, the God Shai appeared to the man, declaring him as 'The Personification of Destiny' and taking Roland under his wing.
Now Roland's new purpose is to serve as Shai's chosen warrior... which eventually landed him here at Half-Blood University.
