Damian Zamora."[/i][/color] [color=black][b]Age[/b][/color] [color=ed1c24][i]"I'm seventeen... I-I think.."[/i][/color] [color=black][b]Gender[/b][/color] [color=ed1c24][i]"I'm a boy."[/i][/color] [color=black][b]# Of Years You've Attended CHB[/b][/color] [color=ed1c24][i]"I just got h-here, so zero."[/i][/color] [color=black][b]Godly Parent[/b][/color] [color=ed1c24][i]Uh... h-he... my... er... T-Tartarus, it is Tartarus."[/i] Everyone at camp currently thinks he is just a unclaimed weirdo.[/color] [color=black][b]Which Side You're On[/b][/color] [color=ed1c24][i]"I-I don't know, t-this stuff is all t-t-too confusing..."[/i][/color] [color=black][b]Appearance[/b][/color] [color=ed1c24][i]"I'm not much r-really..."[/i] Damian is a lanky individual, standing at 6'4 and being quite thin. He is surprisingly lean, though he doesn't have too much muscle mass. Both his hair and skin are shockingly pale, as if he has never been in the sun a day in his life. Though people rarely see them his body is covered in varies scars from burns, claw marks, stab wounds, and bites. His eyes are usually dark charcoal black, but they have been seen to shift into faintly glowing crimson red. Regardless of the temperature Damian is always wrapped in layers upon layers of black clothing. He usually wears a pair of black jeans and combat boots along with a dark grey sweater all under a pitch black hooded trench coat, needless to say Damian keeps the hood drawn at all times. Damian also has a pair of black gloves and a mask which only covers the lower half of his face that he wears.[/color] [color=black][b]Skills[/b][/color] [color=ed1c24][i]"I w-wouldn't call them s-skills..."[/i] [u]Close-Quarter-Combat[/u] When it comes battling up close and personal Damian is a master, though he doesn't use weapons. He relays on his own body rather than swords or bows when he faces foes. His fighting style is very different than an average demigod, more primal and aggressive. [u]Survivalist[/u] Damian knows how to survive in the most hazardous of conditions. Finding food, making shelter, and scaring off local hostile monsters all come second nature to him. [u]Monstrous Insight[/u] Damian seems to know exactly what makes a monster tic and exactly what to do to take it out, almost like he has inside info on the thing.[/color] [color=black][b]Powers[/b][/color] [color=ed1c24][i]"If I tell you... y-you won't want to b-be around me a-anymore."[/i][/color] [color=ed1c24][u]Monster Physiology[/u] All demigods aren't fully human, it just so happens to be more so in Damian's case. Damian's... less than usual heritage has left him with some unique traits in the biology department. Such as he is faster, stronger, and more agile than the average demigod, being able to keep up and even surpass a pack of hellhounds. He is also able to heal much faster, a hour will usually all it takes to get him back in shape after a battle, though he is already much more difficult to harm in the first place. His senses are also far sharper than normal, he can smell faint aromas, see in the dark, and hear incredibly soft sounds. Though it has no real use in battle Damian's digestive system is quite literally monstrous. He can eat bone, metal, and even raw meat as if it was nothing, though Damian prefers a simple chocolate donut over everything else. [u]Horror Appendages[/u] Damian's uh... [i]arsenal[/i] is quite different from the usual demigod. Seeing as he is his own arsenal. Damian is capable of changing parts of his body to resemble that of other monsters. Though he has yet to fully master this ability Damian has managed to simulate the claws of a hellhound, the tentacles of the Kraken, and even at one point breath fire like a basilisk. [u]Fluent In Monster[/u] As absurd as it sounds Damian is able to speak to any monster that wanders the world. Where others will hear a roar Damian hears... well a roar, but he understands what the roar means. Just because you can understand a monster doesn't mean that they will obey you, you will just understand what it is saying when it is trying to make lunch out of you. Though monsters are much less likely to attack you when you can make a roar twice as terrifying as theirs. [u]Dark Gravity[/u] Everything on earth is being pulled toward Tartarus whether they know it or not and being the son of Tartarus means to a very little extent they are also pulled toward Damian. Everything seems to be physically drawn to Damian, as if he had his own miniature gravitational pull though in no real grave scale as of yet. For now it only seems to help in combat by making opponents lose their footing, it is hard to stand and fight when you are being unwantedly pulled towards the guy you are fighting. As well it makes it difficult to run from Damian with this pull, like trying to swim against the current. This also has its downsides as Damian is much more likely to get hit by an arrow that was shot at or near him as it will be drawn to him. [u]Blood Of Tartarus[/u] The blood of the gods run through all demigods, this is true for Damian to though his blood has a bit more [i]"kick"[/i] to it. For Tartarus's blood is actually the what most call the rivers of the underworld. The Lethe, the Styx, the Cocytus, the Phlegethon, and the Acheron all flow through the very heart of Tartarus and into the rest of the underworld, leaving even the pit itself. This blood also flows through Damian and as such not only does the rivers themselves have no real effect on Damian his blood also carries similar properties as the river. For example Damian can bleed upon someone and they will feel sudden sorrow and depression, just like they were dropped in the Cocytus, or he could allow someone to drink his blood and their wounds would start to heal as if they had just drank from the Phlegethon. Damian has to concentrate in order to achieve the effect he wants. This requires a lot of energy on Damian's part which is why he rarely does it.[/color] [color=black][b]Personality[/b][/color] [color=ed1c24][i]"I'm not m-much of a talker..."[/i] What would you expect from the son of Tartarus? A blood thirsty mobster that wants nothing more than to crush you? Well that is true for some of them, Typhon for example, but when it comes to Damian well he is pretty... human. He is incredibly timid, stumbling over his words half the time and staying silent the other half. He is constantly worried about messing something up and will apologize for the littlest of things, even if he was not the one at fault. He has little understanding of social norms which leads to him feeling quite awkward around the other campers. Damian doesn't have many friends, if any at all, mainly do to the fact he doesn't know how to be a friend though this doesn't mean he hasn't tried to get some, he is rather nice if a little oblivious on what people consider friendly. He normally spends his time out in the forest around the camp, he seems to relate more with the monsters that roam the forest than with the actual campers. The only time all of Damian's awkwardness seems to melt away is when he is in battle, his actions and mind becomes clear and fluid as if he was born for fighting.[/color] [color=black][b]History[/b][/color] [color=ed1c24][i]"There i-isn't much to tell..."[/i] What do you expect of the god of the realm of punishment, if you expect any pleasantness or kindness you are seriously need to look up the meaning of the word [i][u]punishment[/u][/i]. Tartarus is a being of pure malice and wickedness, which made him the perfect match for Gaea. It is no secret the two gods entered a type of relationship that lasted for centuries, even into the time Gaea attempted her over throwing of the Olympians. Every god, demigod, and monster knows how the earth mother was defeated by the prophesied seven demigods and "killed" just like Uranus, Tartarus included. Needless to say the god of the pit did not take the news well and wanted nothing more than revenge on the Olympians and their mortal children. That was when the dark god devised a plan, to use the thing the gods have been using for centuries to battle for them, a demigod. Obtaining a human woman was easier than expected, Tartarus plucked a soul out of the Acheron and gave its body back. The soul that was chosen was of Lilith Zamora, a mortal serial killer that plagued America for years. With that Tartarus had all he needed to "create" his new son. With the deed done the child was born nine months later in the pit, at which point Tartarus quickly returned Lilith back to the Acheron. From the day he could walk Tartarus filled the boy's life with nonstop training, forcing the child to fight against all manors of beasts and monsters. Tartarus exposed the child to the most heinous actions imaginable, which with the god of the pit meant quite brutal torture and mutilation. For years this training went on and honestly it was working, the boy had become quite the vicious warrior, but with his strength that grew so did a resentment towards his father. The boy eventually managed to escape from Tartarus through the passage to the mortal world, the same passage monsters use to return to the mortal world after their death. The boy wandered lost for some time in the mortal world, having never been there in his entire life. He was fascinated by it all like the lack of poison air and fiery rivers, but even more so the stars and sun stunned him. He had never seen anything like them before. He was eventually found by a Satyr, though the poor Satyr had no clue what to make of the boy's smell as he smelled just like a monster, and brought to Camp-Half Blood. That is where the boy took the name Damian. It is what he thought he was called by a old woman who's garbage he was going through for food, she had actually called him a demon. The last few months he had been getting settled in at camp, though most of the campers try to avoid him like the plague.[/color] [/center]
