Name: Spencer William Reid-Herondale Nickname: Spence, Dr Reid, Spock, and many other nicknames the minds of Ares children can think of really Age: 22 Gender: Male Sexual Orientation: Heterosexual
Likes: - Reading - Knowledge - Wisdom - His step-mother, even though she's crazy in the head - Fun Facts - Psychology - Mythology - Coffee - And more coffee (with sugar..lots of sugar) Dislikes: - The dark - Bullies - Psychopaths - His father Strengths: - Psychological Mind - Knowledge about anything written Weaknesses: - Darkness - Having no sugar within his blood stream Fears: - Darkness - Being told wrong - Losing someone - Being Abandoned
Spencer is known to be a person who keeps to himself, he sulks when no one is looking around and tends to cover up his pain on the inside. He's very quirky and very odd in his own special way which he admits must be his genius. Due to also this, he drinks a lot of coffee, and has been drinking a lot of it causing him to have more of a wild side to him, which he doesn't mind at all (even when he adds a lot of sugar). Growing up, Spencer has been known to have some very quirky traits (like his addiction to coffee alongside with his nonsense words of Klingong), negative traits, and neutral traits. Positive traits? Some people may find out soon enough when they meet him. [QUIRKY TRAITS NOTICED] Spencer is known to have inherent his father schizophrenia and has a minority of autism, if one were to take close to him, it's known to have minor Asperger Syndrome, or in other words, social awkwardness. He always seem to stray off topics when it comes to social events, unlike the time when he went to the Dr Who convention and the Star Trek convention. There's a very normal quirk and that his Spencer's love for coffee, especially when it has a lot of sugar. If there is any time Spencer has coffee, it's always a must that he needs a lot of sugar. Especially when he's in the mood to just goof around or speak in random Klingong. [TRAITS OF NEGATIVITY] Spence doesn't even look like the type to fight back, which is true (sometimes), when he's threatened, he does seem to take some action, but he doesn't do much about it. He's known to hold some sense of grudges, even though he doesn't look like it. [TRAITS OF NEUTRALITY] At various of points Spencer can be very curious, it cam be either good or bad. In some ways, Spencer, in some way actually reminds someone of a stray kitten who would never be picked up by due to mental problems. [POSITIVE TRAITS] As he grew up, Spencer was always the type to absorb knowledge better than any other children. Thus, right before he was twenty, he has two degrees, now, at the age of twenty-two, Spencer is known to have
POWERS [INHERENT ABILITIES] EIDETIC MEMORY:I only read five books last week// Spencer is known to have a great eidetic memory, he's able to recite books and authors. It's greatly known that he verbally knows every language but Russian, though he does his best on learning the language. EXPERTISE IN STRATEGY: as a son of Athena, Spencer is known to be an expert in strategy, though as a flaw he doesn't even know most of his strategy until it HAND-TO-HAND COMBAT: I'm sure no one has told you that I am horrible at fighting, pathetically. And, I only know how to shoot a gun, but, I barely passed my examination to use a gun in the first place. In all known cases, HIGH INTELLIGENCE/WISDOM: This isn't about being smart. This is about doing the right thing. // This is a case where Spencer seems to find appropriate, he with his high IQ is smart, but, can also be quite show off-ish. Coffee would usually fuel him and make him think faster. WEAVING: I don't think the possibility of me weaving right now is incoherently good, I can barely tie my shoe laces right. // This never seems to end well with Spencer, when he starts weaving, the actual thought of him getting something right, (even when he's a prodigy and a doctor) is close to none. Imagine a kid tying himself up into a web, just the mere image of Spencer weaving is impossible for him. [SKILLS ATTAINED] PSYCHOLOGICAL MIND: Stephen King once said- "Monsters are real. Ghosts are real, too. They live inside us and sometimes, they win." // As a child, Spence has always been intrigued by the minds of other people, always questioning why they thought as so. As he read books about psychology, he would question the limits of the human mind and try understand why a person thinks as so. PROFILING: Spencer when he was nineteen worked with a detective, only for university work of course since he needed another degree. [THE UNWANTED] SCHIZOPHRENIA: Out of things he wished he didn't have, Spencer worries about his schizophrenia, giving him migraines and the sense of feeling of going "crazy". The migraines are a usual thing for him, but, the majority of the time Spencer has to go to the doctor to handle the constant sensitivity he has towards light, sound, and touch.
Godly Parent: Athena Claimed: Yes ; 13 years Other Family: - William Reid (father) - Emilia Herondale (step-mother)
Emotional Weakness ;; deliria William Reid, a world wide known palaeontologist and a professor in a university in Las Vegas. William Reid wasn't the normal palaeontologist who travelled the world and saw the place, no, he was more of the stay at home type to do some work, around a general area where he could be himself and not care about anyone else but himself and his workers needs. As a professor by day, he teaches Classical Studies and sometimes substitutes for English Literature. There was a professor who was sick almost year-round, and that was the English Literature professor, Emilia Herondale who was head over heels for William just kept her distance from him due to her shyness. As he stayed back to grade some examination papers, one of the students, Athena Blackwood asked the professor about the knowledge of the world consumption. What William doesn't know is that, Athena Blackwood was none other than Athena herself, disguised as a brilliant Senior in the university, dubbing her as one of the wisest and smartest girls in the university. He was impressed, but a tad annoyed with the girl since she could clearly see he was busy grading. Though, as soon as he finished he bumped into Emilia who not only has the fleeting crush, but also asked him out. But due to his busy schedule he had to only put her in for next month on his birthday which he didn't really care about. Athena followed William to Starbucks where the two at least were on even ground, it was not until did they both trip over their feet and spilled their drink on each other. William took Athena to his apartment which was quite close and gave her a change of clothes which he knew would fit. The two met after school and during school exchanging their prior knowledge and wisdom with one another. It was not until William's birthday was there a party at his apartment, but Emilia didn't show up, like she said she would. Lets skip ahead, don't wanna bore with the meaningless detail.
Congratulations! It's a boy! ;; birth Oh, this is where Spencer Dominic Reid-Herondale is born, exactly upon the day of Halloween. Where it was supposedly said of a pagan holiday for the festivity of the dead. When he was born, Athena told the professor she didn't want her parents to find out of the child, and so, Spencer was given to William who by then, was dating Emilia. William stayed by his words and kept Spencer in his care, it was not until two years later did Emilia and William married. They told Spencer he was their child, though by the time Spencer was five years old, his father left him and Emilia, unable to stand Emilia's major schizophrenia. It was not until Spencer was around ten was he adopted by his aunt and uncle. They sent Emilia to a asylum where the doctors can deal with her rather than Spence. It was in these so given years, Spencer was sent to school.
Psychological Mind ;; elementary age Elementary is supposed to be filled with fun and paintings, singing and all merriment right? For Spencer, it was just another place where he was constantly mocked and teased at for a very long time and he couldn't get over the fact on why people would do such a thing to him. He went to the teacher a lot of times, but the teasing never stopped. He was often bullied a whole lot and he didn't appreciate the fact it happened frequently, though as soon as he was piquing his interest towards Psychology, he didn't mind them at all. His elementary school years weren't as much memorable.
Prodigy Inspired ;; middle school age This is the interesting part of Spencer's life, this was when he graduated school quite early and went immediately to high school at only the age of thirteen. He was bullied some more, though, hanging around with some of the people, he took a liking towards drinking a lot of coffee.
Impossibility of masses ;; arrival When Spencer learned he was a demigod, it was by that time he earned his second degree in Science. Although he says he's smart, he's not articulately good in self defense at all, when he was drafted into the BAU, he failed his gun exam three times before having his license to actually carry one. The whole time, he's known to actually carry a baton for the fun of things and to defend himself. In retrospect, Spencer was carried by a gryphon on the shoulder, taken to a camp. Of course he was a bit frightened (given the fact he was swearing in Klingong).
Unlikely friendship with a brute;; meeting of Caleb Kendall Spencer has been in Camp for around thirteen years, so, it's normal to have friends and enemies right? Well, as he stayed in camp, he met a rather brutish son of Ares who, not only picks on him, but also thinks Spence is like a walking talking computer who has possibly no life and no girl. Sure Spencer doesn't mind the company of Caleb Kendall really, it makes Spencer smarter than he already is. One thing for certain, Spencer likes to be around Caleb, even though he doesn't seem to use his cerebrum that well. The reason for this fact is because, if Spencer's around Caleb, it makes Spencer smarter than he already sound, even though he's a pale white guy with an addiction to coffee. Spencer William Reid-Herondale, son of Athena, and seemingly some of the Ares kids' favorite chew toy.

Powers: ~Powers~
Phoenix Physiology- The power to use the abilities of Phoenix and a variation of Mythical Bestiary and Avian Physiology. It is also known as Firebird Mimicry, Immortal Bird Mimicry, and Phoenix Mimicry. With this ability, Enya can transform into an phoenix, a mythical sacred fire bird that symbolizes rebirth, immortality, and renewal in the mythologies of the Arabian, Persians, Greeks, Romans, Egyptians, Chinese, Turks, Indians and Phoenicians/Canaanites. Phoenix are described as a bird with a colorful plumage and a tail of gold and scarlet (or purple, blue, and green according to some legends) with a 500 to 1000 year life-cycle. Near the end of which it builds itself a nest of twigs (or whole trees) that then ignites; both nest and bird burn fiercely and are reduced to ashes, from which a new, young phoenix or phoenix egg arises, reborn anew to live again. However, Enya will need time to regenerate and will need focus to change back.
Fire Manipulation- The power to manipulate fire. A variation of Elemental Manipulation and Energy Manipulation. It is also called Agnikinesis, Firebending, Fire Release, Flame Control/Manipulation, Pyrokinesis, Ignikinesis, and Fire Control. Enya can create, shape and manipulate fire now due to her Phoenix Physiology strengthening and affecting her normal form. Depending on the substances alight, and any impurities outside, the color of the flame and the fire's intensity will be different. Enya unable to create fire, being limited to manipulating only from already existing sources, in which case, she carries a lighter around at all times. Control is extremely important. Unconscious use of this power can be catastrophic. Enya can be overpowered by Water Manipulation, Water Generation, Ice Manipulation and/or Freezing. Oxygen is needed as fuel.
Fire Immunity- The power to be immune to fire and heat. A sub-power of Thermal Resistance and Body Temperature Manipulation, variation of Selective Invulnerability and Elemental Immunity. The opposite power of Cold Immunity. It is also known as Fireproofness, Heat Immunity, Pyrokinetic Immunity/Invulnerability, Fire Invulnerability, and Fire-Proof Skin. Enya is immune to fire and heat, making her non-flammable. Enya will have a weakness against cold and will be vulnerable to heat over certain limit. Fire that is combined with other powers (including dark fire, white fire, hell fire and holy fire) may be able to harm Enya.
Lie Detection- The power to detect lies. This should not be confused with Telepathy or Truth Inducement. It is the opposite of Truth Detection. It is also known as Intuitive Polygraphy, Lie Sensing, and Mendacity Detection. Enya can sense when she is lied to by various means, but the most common for Enya is a person's body language. She will not be able to differentiate between a white lie or a secret. Divided Mind would allow someone to defeat this technique, by only allowing one personality to know. It is useless against Apathy, and Enya will not be able to sense the reason behind the lie.
~Skills~
Tactical Analysis- The ability to be an extremely skilled strategic genius and apply this skill for several objectives. It is a sub-power of Combat Perception and is also known as Enhanced Analysis, Chessmaster, Master Manipulator, Master Planner, Master Strategist, Master Tactician, Military Genius, Strategic Mastermind, and Strategy Genius. Enya can create strategies and plans several steps ahead of the opponent seeming like she can see into the future. Enya is able to elaborate complex plans and strategies and apply them in not just in battle but any other activity that involves cunning intellect.E.g Strategic games. Enya is very analytical and can understand or anticipate the enemies moves. She are vulnerable against Unpredictability. Enya will be corrupted or overwhelmed by her own intelligence making her to be arrogant or underestimate the opponent.
Master of Blades- Enya is very skilled in using bladed weapons, particularly the sword and dagger. Her favorite sword is obviously
Hand to Hand Combat- Though not an expert, Enya knows basic fighting styles, primarily boxing.
Weapon: Katana primarily; The katana is orange in color as far as it concerns the blade, the hilt is black, and the guard, unlike most katanas, is vertical with the sword instead of the traditional guard.
History: Enya Valerie Inferno is the reincarnation of a demigod named Angela Drew Jones. It marks the start of her rebirth cycle, but also the start of her corruption by deities of old. In this life, she hears noises but they are too unclear to decipher. Those noises belong to the Titans mainly with Giants and Primordials in the background. Angela Drew Jones was brought to a house somewhere along the coast of the state of Washington. The house was small, but had two stories. The outside was painted white. Surrounding the house were trees, secluding it from outsiders and giving the home an eerie feeling. Angela had been delivered to Johnathan Jones’ doorstep like any other Athena child, in a cradle that was made by Hephaestus after Athena gave birth from her skull. With the cradle was a watch made of gold and a set of ruby rings. Johnathan took Angela in, but only for his own greedy purposes. He could see through the Mist, and was fascinated with the monsters of mythology that most believed only to be stories. He was particularly fond of the Phoenix, a fiery bird that, when it died, a new one would be born from its ashes. So, as a scientist, he experimented, first on animals and then to something bigger: a person. Since his daughter was the only one nearby, he tested on her with the DNA of a Phoenix. Angela was only six years old. During the experiments on Angela Jones, a surprising outcome happened. A boy the same age as Angela appeared, born, or created, after an explosion wrecked the basement as Angela’s own DNA was trying to accept or reject the newly implanted DNA. The boy was covered in ash and a light yellow glow covered his sooty skin. Her father, fascinated and scared of this new outcome, isolated the boy in the attic soon after he appeared. Despite being separated from the boy, Angela often snuck to the attic to see the strange boy. She called him Deangelo Valiant Jones, or just Valiant. Unlike her, the boy had light brown hair and blue eyes. Despite this, Angela saw Deangelo as her twin. He never spoke and hardly ate, making Angela worry. However, he always gave her a reassuring look to comfort her. After the tests were complete, Angela’s father had successfully fused the DNA of a Phoenix into his own daughter, though it was still unstable. At the same time, Johnathan noticed that the boy, whom he referred to as The Accident, also had the phoenix DNA within him as well and it was more controllable than Angela's DNA. Angela and Deangelo were 10 at that time. For four years, Johnathan kept the siblings separated and observed them. Angela never spoke and often read books to forget her own life. Often times she would erupt into a tantrum and violent anger. Johnathan often sedated her, kept her in a cage, and tortured her. She was whipped, resorting in scars on her back. Deangelo on the other hand paced calmly and was pretty much ignored by Johnathan. He was more the type to observe and apply those skills to himself. To Johnathan, the twins were two sides of the same coin. Once the four years went by, Deangelo decided to run. He took the gifts from his sister's 'birth' that were in a drawer, unaware of the gifts power . Deangelo also took Angela with him, fearing what her father might do if he left her alone with the man. Together, the siblings traveled across the country, taking trains, hitchhiking and walking, following their instincts to a safer place, one free of experimental fathers. During their travels, they encountered many monsters, most drawn to the monster DNA of the Phoenix within them as well as the demigod blood that ran through their veins. When attacked, Deangelo fought them off, mainly using a branch or anything else nearby that seemed to do damage. Soon enough, they arrived at Camp Half-Blood, a haven for demigods. They were badly injured and had to rest for two weeks before they completely recovered. Deangelo, though, did not stay and vanished the day he supposedly recovered from his injuries, leaving Angela in the care of the campers. Angela always thought he was just an imaginary friend. The death of Angela Jones came as a shock to some. Since her body still was unaccustomed to the phoenix DNA inside of her, Angela went wild. Her half-brother, Michael, shot her through the chest in an attempt to stop her from killing another camper. She died after her friends had rushed her to a nearby hospital. Angela was declared dead at age 16. Once her life as Angela Drew Jones ended, she became Enya Valerie Inferno. Awakening in a morgue, Enya almost freaked out, having no idea why she was there in the first place, thinking she had merely fell asleep at the hospital where she had been treated, by her knowledge, only days before. She made her way back to Camp Half-Blood by flying in her phoenix form. By the time she arrived, she noticed how much things have changed. Enya was in fact gone for at least two months and a lot of her previous friends vanished or changed. Even her brother, Deangelo, had gone missing in action during the last quest and was considered dead. She also heard a strange ringing in her head, a collection of noises as if on a high frequency, but was unable to know what they were. Personality: Enya is a hot-headed girl, often losing her temper. She gets annoyed easily and tells people to shut up. However, she is still thoughtful. She thinks of others and listens to their problems with an open mind. Enya also is smart, but that is typical of a daughter of Athena. Appearance: Enya Valerie Inferno has red hair that is sometimes considered to be a red flame. Her skin is pale with a slight tan and her eyes resemble fire. Her usual attire consists of a black trench coat, black pants, black boots, and a white or red shirt/blouse. On some occasions, Enya will be seen wearing her Camp Half-Blood t-shirt, dark blue jeans, and black converse sneakers. Around her neck she wears a necklace with an orange-red gem, smooth like a river worn stone, and once again resembling that of fire.

Powers: As a daughter of Athena, Rissa has the ability of Combat Perception, the ability to understand how a person thinks and fights in combat. Also called Combat Planning, Combat Strategy Planning, Combat Scientist, Combat Understanding, Combat Intuition, and Combat Mentality Perception. With this ability Rissa is able to instantly understand an opponent's method of thinking and fighting and anticipating their moves. Once she understand her enemies strategy, she is able to find their flaw and weakness and take them down with little effort. While some children of Athena or Ares of this method do not use it as part of their primary fighting style, it is helpful in emergencies against difficult opponents where ordinary methods will not work against them. Strengths: (both personality and power) Weaknesses: However, Combat Perception still has drawback. Rissa can still be overpowered by a superior opponent, can be caught off-guard by a miscalculation or hidden ability. Sometimes it may be difficult or impossible to come up with an effective strategy depending on the situation and may require time to observe opponent's fighting style or weaknesses before using a strategy to avoid risks. Over-thinking or giving into fear towards a situation can waste time and make it harder to find the right strategy. Weapon: silver sword by the name of Saphientiam
History: When Rissa was a little girl she always wanted to meet her mother. her dad told her that her mother was beautiful and very intelligent. her dad told her she just took off one day and never looked back.

Rissa always seemed to be seeing weird things but she always told herself they weren't real. When Rissa turned 15 years old a monster attacked her when she was in the girls bathroom alone. That was when she realized she wasn't normal. Another demi god brought her to camp half- blood where she realized she is the daughter of Athena. Personality: She always pulls off the crazy stunts and makes the wise cracks for entertainment. Rissa could also be somewhat violent towards those who antagonized her. She had a reputation at camp for being someone who you did not want to pick a fight with.However, as time passed, especially after what happened with her brother (long story), Rissa began to become much more grounded and responsible. She thought through her actions much more, in contrast to her old reckless self, shedding some of that old impulsiveness. Rissa has very powerful protective instincts. She cannot stand to sit back and see people get hurt, always trying to do something to help wherever possible, even if for a complete and total stranger. She is extraordinarily devoted to helping innocent people. She can be very sarcastic and sharp-tongued at times. She always has a smartass comment ready whenever someone says something antagonistic to her, and always bites back with a witty insult. She doesn't hesitate to speak her mind, and can be extremely stubborn in her opinions. Appearance: Rissa is 5'1" in height with a weight of 105 lbs. Her hair color is platinum blonde which is naturally curled but she chooses to flatten it with a flattening iron. Her eyes are dark grey, often compared to brewing storm clouds.

Powers:
-Eidetic memory. She forgets nothing no matter how much she wishes to. However her eidetic memory only made itself evident after she turned fifteen and witnesses her families slaughter. She couldn’t remember enough to find whoever killed them and from that moment on swore that she would never forget anything ever again. Her memory however means that she has a slightly scattered mind. There are so many things in her mind that she can at times, struggle to pinpoint one thing
-Mastery of Weapons. Due to her biological mother being the goddess of battle strategy. She find is easy to master almost any weapon that is put in front of her. It doesn’t take her long at all to understand the concept of the weapons and she has the skill to wield them, however she is limited to how strong she is. For example she finds it difficult to use a mace or a battle hammer as she can not lift them with ease.
-Balance, Reflexes and Aim. She is tuned for battle, despite preferring to lead a battle from the sidelines. Although this is not necessarily from her mother, rather it is from her genetics.
-Literary Knowledge. She is knowledgeable in languages and literacy, and knows enough languages to rival a few Hermes’s kids. Although this is largely due to travelling a lot as a child. She is better at speaking the languages than reading them.
Weapons:
-Recurve bow. Her primary weapon is a black recurve bow. It was gifted to her by Artemis during a chance meeting that ended in a battle with a Fury. Her arrows never run out and she never misses her target. A trigger can be sprung on the grip and two dual blades appear on the limbs of the bow, which Ainsley uses for close range combat.
-Long, one and a half handed sword. Ainsley’s second weapon is a sword of obsidian. It is light and well balanced with a red colored agate in the pommel. Her sword was given to her by her mother.
-Throwing Knives. Simple throwing knives of obsidian with agate encrusted hilts. She never runs out of them. And they were given to her by her mother at the same time as her sword.
*All of her weapons, including her minor weapons, such as garrote and darts all transform into various charms on a black gold bracelet she constantly wears around her wrist and most have the ability to rejuvenate. Meaning she can never loose them or run out as long as she has her bracelet.
History: Ainsley was left at a small hospital in London on the 21st of August 18 years ago. A few weeks later she was adopted by a kind family and found herself with a mother, father and older brother. She was brought up travelling from country to country as her father was a photographer and her mother was an journalist for travel agencies. Ainsley’s first language was English, however she grew up being taught languages such as; Italian, Russian, Spanish, German, French, Portuguese, Persian, Hebrew, Estonian, Chinese, Sinhalese, Turkish, Greek and Swedish. However she doesn’t fluently speak Hebrew, Estonian or Sinhalese. She was educated on the road, learning about history and culture as she saw the places, and other subjects like math and science online or in libraries whenever she could. Her father also made it his job to teach Ainsley how to defend herself with anything she had at hand. He always remarked at how surprised he was when she picked up various techniques faster than he could imagine. At 15 however, tragedy struck while she and her family were in the countryside near New York. It was a happy occasion as her family rarely celebrated Christmas somewhere cold with pine trees to cut and decorate. Her entire family had gone outside to collect firewood and have a snowball fight. Ainsley only remembered flashes of black and red, and the screams of her family. She had been told to run. It was three days later when the police found her, curled up in the cabin near a lit fire. She had no memory of lighting the fire. In the weeks and months that followed, Ainsley was interviewed and placed in foster care for a time. The police never found the killer and Ainsley swore she would never forget again. At 16 years old and after almost twenty different foster homes, Ainsley ran away. She knew enough about the world and survival that she wasn’t entirely worried. It was after a month on the run that Ainsley ran into Artemis. She worked with Artemis for half a year, but she didn’t fully want to swear off men. Artemis told her of monsters and how to fight them, and of what she was, as well as a camp to protect half bloods like herself. Soon before Ainsley left the Hunters of Artemis she was attacked by a Fury. Ainsley managed to kill it with a bow that had been on hand before Artemis gifted her with a bow of her own. It became the first weaponzied charm on a bracelet her father had given her during their travels. A few months later Ainsley encountered Athena, who directed her to the camp and claimed her half way through her 17th year. Athena also gifted her with a sword and throwing knives to better defend herself. Personality: Ainsley is a rather contradictory person. She despises people in pain but will inflict pain if the need arises. She also despises seeing others unhappy and will do anything in her power to change that. She puts others before herself, which often can make her miserable or endanger her life. She is also very opinionated and dislikes being wrong or having someone make a blatant comment that has no backing to it what-so-ever. Often times this gets her into a lot of trouble. She knows a lot about culture and the world and will not stand for people disrespecting other’s cultures or beliefs. However despite putting others first and having strong opinions, Ainsley is a very fun-loving girl. She adores travel and making jokes about anything and everything. She has very strong loves as well as opinions and gets extremely defensive if someone speaks against one of her loves. She can be a brilliant listener and has always been described as loyal. Although her good opinion once lost is gone forever. She rarely changes her mind unless she sees a brilliant reason to. Appearance: Ainsley is a rather petite girl. She looks younger than she is, which has led to some awkward situations. Her hair and her smile are two of her best qualities in her father’s opinion. Her hair is a dirty blonde sometimes brown color, which falls to just under her shoulder blades when straightened and just under her shoulders when left wavy. She has blue/green/brown eyes that never seem to settle on anyone color. Another aspect of her appearance is her slim and slightly curvy figure that holds the grace of a dancer and the flexibility of a professional gymnast. Overall, she is quite attractive.
