life's what you make it...
[/b] so let's make it ROCK[/center] kaiden jane maylark..fifteen..daughter of zeus..prankster..free-spiritedkaiden is fun-loving, add, wild child who enjoys pranking people and egging people on. she also enjoys having competitions and little challenges that keep her in shape. yet, she has her calm moments, but only a rare few get to see them, as those people are the ones she can have deep conversations with about anything under the blue sky. but anyone can befriend kaiden- it's a very simple task. just give her a bag of jelly beans and she will love you forever and ever and a day. friends;;kaiden could have lots of these, just people she sees and speaks to on a regular basis. these would be the people she goes to when she's bored, looking for someone to go pranking with, or to do something fun with. the ones that are closer to her though, are the ones she not only looks to for fun, but are the ones she would stay the night with in their cabin, talking about problems and things that matter; aka the ones she looks to for help. kaiden would only have a small amount of those friends, probably only one or two, including her brother. enemies;; oh lordy kaiden would have plenty of these, probably children of aphrodite she had pranked one too many times, ruining their clothes or cabins. these people are the ones looking to get revenege on kaiden, and while all she does is ignore them or prank them more, she doesn't realize that one day they could come back to bite her in the butt. she's just not too concerned. rivals;; the ones to have prank wars with, the ones to battle in the arena, the ones kaiden's always trying to beat out. these people are the 'enemies' kaiden cares about, the ones that keep her on her toes. she caould have as many or as little of these as possible. lovers;; ooh an awkward topic. kaiden used to have a boyfriend, but then she left for part of the summer to spend time with her 'cousin', parents, and mother. she's not sure where her relationship lies with him because he has not returned to camp yet, so she could be considered open. she doesn't really attract people as more than good friends though, something about her need to keep moving and not be chained down really keeps her away from that. anyone looking to be with kaiden would need a free spirit like her that's willing to always be on the move- perhaps a friendly child of hermes, as those are her favorite people besides her family. so yeah, please reply if your interested. or if you looked here. that works too!

I give you my character Cat: [atrb=border,0,true][atrb=style, width: 400px;]
Catherine Haley O'Reilly
Cat . 17 . Female . Hetrosexual . Demigod child of (Hermes), god of (Travellers, Messengers and Thieves) appearance: In terms of her appearance, Cat is very like her siblings in many ways. For a start, she has got the same crooked smile that comes across every child of Hermes whenever something worthy of the attention of a thief. This item could be anything but as long as it has caught Cat’s eye, you will find this smile across her face. If you’re lucky, you may even get a smudge of sarcasm with her smile. Then you have Cat’s upturned eyebrows and a gleam in her eye (that can usually be traced to any theft, prank or mischievous act). To round off the similarities, all of the facial traits Cat possesses have a distinct sharpness to them.
Obviously with having a different mother compared to a lot of her siblings, Cat is also different in her looks. For instance, she wears her hair down past her shoulders and in no way shows signs of curls although in contrast, it is just as black as her father’s. Cat’s eyes are a distinct shade of blue, popping out of a pale complexion. Lastly, Cat stands at 5’10, making her quite tall but yet has a slender build.
face claim: Liv Tyler
personality: Cat, like a lot of Hermes' children, has a mischievous and sneaky personality. This demigod is quite the pickpocket, although to say kleptomania meant nothing to Cat would be a lie so it's not just the things in your pockets she goes for. She can't help it - if she sees something she likes, then chances are she'll steal it (and with Hermes being her father, it will be long gone before the owner realises).
Kleptomania aside, Cat is very proud and it's her fatal flaw. Now it's not like she's constantly rubbing her own glory in people's faces but Cat believes she can do anything (and steal anything for that matter). As a wise goddess once said though, "The most dangerous flaws are those which are good in moderation".
Cat is also stealthy and is quite sly: both traits having accumilated from growing up with her cat-burgular of a mother. Not that a mother could teach anything close when your father is the God of Thieves.
All that aside, Cat can be quite reasonable, for example as much as she would want to, she knows not to steal the symbol of power of any god (but mainly one of the Big Three). It would be suicide, and if not directly then indirectly through the resulting war. In addition, this demigod can also be quite laid back and sensual, not going to too much trouble unless it was of significant appeal to Cat's desires.

hometown: Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania parent: Jasmine O'Reilly (Mother | 45) sibling(s): Nestor O'Reilly (Twin | 17 | Child of Hermes) other: None pet(s): A cat called Grizabella history: In the years leading up to the meeting of Cat’s parents, her mother Jasmine was an infamous cat burglar working her way across America. I think that is probably what attracted Hermes to the woman in the first place, being the basic personification of thieves and all that. They met on route to a quaint old neighbour in Washington where Cat intended to use her skills and swipe some some-to-be stolen possessions. Everything was going to plan until Hermes showed up. Jasmine was completely taken aback – this was a solo mission, Jasmine worked alone which meant that this . . . man was either a competitor or the house owner. This would not normally work out but with anything remotely connected to Hermes’ world, anything is possible.
Nine months later (led by a night together), Jasmine was presented with twins and little job prospects for her. All for the one guy but life moved on and so did the O’Reillys. In hindsight, Cat has never been totally sure how exactly the family did survive during her toddler years but definitely once the twins were old enough, they were present during robberies. This was especially so once Jasmine started noticing things. Objects were disappearing and reappearing within both Nestor and Cat’s vicinity. Goodbye, long periods of planning and hard work. Hello, easy jobs involving the children.
For years, the O’Reillys moved around stealing possessions from people and heading to the next city before they got caught by the local police. The only thing that could possibly spoil this age of criminal prosperity occurred. Having spent so much time with her children, Jasmine developed maternal instincts. She started caring about Nestor and Cat, not to mention their safety. She could not bring the twins out on burglaries but she did not have anyway to leave them.
At this point Hermes intervened, altering his children’s (and consort’s) lives for ever. Jasmine found a note with just an address on it from the god himself. Not knowing who this was from, Jasmine went on a hunch. She did not know what she would find at the address but it may be worth looting so the trio set off for:
Camp Half-Blood, Half-Blood Hill, Farm Road 3.141 Long Island, New York 11954
Six years later, Cat and Nestor have been living all year round at Camp Half-Blood whilst their mother gallivants around the country, steeling anything and everything.
Bert . None . 4 Years (On and off) . Thalia Grace | Percy Jackson | Nico Di Angelo |
Relationship with Kaiden:- Lets be honest, Cat is a kleptomaniac so she has probably stolen off Kaiden at some point. If so, they are probably not the best of friends, especially if the item(s) was/were expensive.
- Seeing as Kaiden has a prankster side, maybe the pair could have a rivalry.

Kaiden & Excalibur
Kaiden would definitely make Cali's top ten list of most disliked demigods. I'm guessing they would not have had that great a relationship to start simply considering their parents. Cali would hate the excessive pranking and as she would think 'pointless' behaviour. Cali would probably class Kaiden as an 'inferior'. Excalibur wouldn't waste her time bothering herself with Kaiden, and would only act out if Kaiden angered her in some way. Would Kaiden even bother bugging Cali or would she kind of just leave her be? What would Kaiden's opinion of Cali be?

Kaiden&&Helen [/color] Well, I suck at plotting, so you know...But, I think that they would be friends. Helen doesn't play any pranks, but she likes to watch them. They're also really close in terms of cabins-Helen stays in the Hera one most of the time. They're both reletively young, too. XD Again, sorry! What do you think?

I think Carmel could definitely get along well with Kaiden. Since Carmel was easy to be bored, she would think of her as amusing person at first and it would definitely make her want to get to know her(Kaiden) better Carmel was a free-spirited girl and yet sometimes she had her calm moment. They could relate in having fun and talking.
What do you think? xD

Yusss. It sounds like an excellent idea! Where would they meet? I think it's funny that Carmel is a daughter of Apollo, because generally all of Kaiden's friends come from the Hermes, Apollo, and Zeus cabins XD

I'm thinking that they would meet when Carmel accidentally stumbled upon one of Kaiden's prank(somewhere outside?). Out of boredom, Carmel decided to hang around and somehow got hooked into it willingly.
Something like that? xD

Jayeessssss this sounds good edit: here's the linkkk Helen could join in on this too since she is vadalizing the Hera cabin. &&Cali & Kaiden YES, Kaiden would probably piss her off in some way. Maybe pranking her, stealing something from her? Or perhaps just saying a snubb comment? &&Cat & Kaiden I could actually imagine Kaiden and Cat as really close friends considering they have similar intrests. They even look alike with their height, hair and eye colors. They could look like sisters. But I could see that. A camp-wide known rivalry. "Are those two girls sisters?" "Gods, no. Kaiden and Cat are the two biggest pranksters at camp- always going at eachother. just watch out though. Get in their way and they'll come for you."
