Human Parent: N/A Legacy: N/A General Information Personality: Astrid is a bubbly excited person. She loves talking to other people when she is around them. Mostly this is due to her slight ADD. The only time the she can ever completely stop talking to people and focus completely on something is when she is building something or programming. While a few people find her constant talking it is hard for her to find something she doesn't like in someone. One of the reasons that Astrid is so outgoing and talkative is because she is lonely. She has never truly been with someone and feels that she is missing out on her life Likes: fire, tinkering, working with other people, programming Dislikes: things not working, dirty tools, not having control, her ADD Talents: programming, surprisingly this has come in handy being a child of Hephaestus Biography: Astrid was raised in camp. When Astrid was very young she was left in a basket inside the border of Camp Half-Blood. The campers knew that she must have been one of them because she was inside their gates, but they had no idea who she was and how exactly she had gotten there. They named her Astrid. Growing up in Camp Half-Blood was very different from any other place. She never got to go to school, nor the movies with friends, or even play sports. Throughout her life she spent her time doing online classes and switching between cabins. As she was so young no one could tell exactly which cabin she would fit in, so every year she switched to a new one to see if maybe it would "call to her." By the time Astrid was 9 she knew that the cabin for her was cabin 9. The glowing forges and dangerously sharp weapons seemed to call to her. The campers living there adopted her and raised her as their own. They taught her all sorts of different skills. She got burnt, scratched, and stabbed under their instruction, but never ceased to be interested. When everyone else went back to school, Astrid stayed in camp. She worked the forge, and designed countless projects. She quickly became one of the best forger in the camp. Plus all her time on the computer allowed for Astrid to develop a new way of tinkering. A more computer oriented direction. Astrid might have become Cabin Counselor if Nick had not arrived, but she was not really interested in leading.

It is light weight and perfectly balanced at the grip. Beneath the head of the spear are small vents that can emit a certain amount of fire for a period of time. This can be used as a sort of defense, lighter, or even a torch. Other Other: Hope that my background is okay. I know that it is different from the standard "Stumbled into Camp Half-Blood having no idea what this place was and not believing in gods," but I think it adds a cool twist. Also are Hephaestus kids allowed to use the power of fire? I don't mean full on body covered in fire, just a small spark?
