As a demi-god, River inherited some powers from his divine father. Once River hears any sound or voice, he can immediately replicate it perfectly with his own voice. River also has chaos based powers, able to affect the likelihood of things happening, though he has no idea how to control this power. River can also transfer positive feelings through contact, making someone feel better. If he maintained his touch for long enough it could lead to something as strong as ecstasy.

River’s main drive in life is acting. However, as he has no actually attended an acting school, River is much more amateur than his peers. What River does have is a wonderful singing voice, though he has no interest in becoming a musician, unless it’s musical theater. River also has an encyclopedic level of knowledge about film history and actors. He can recite every line by heart for about a dozen movies, with most of his apartment full of DVDs and Blu Rays.

River is in very good health as he regularly goes for runs and does other exercises. River is also the best good in his friend group and as such hosts many dinners at his apartment.

[color=#FFF821]Backstory:[/color]
Anika Seth was the daughter of an Indian couple who fled to small town America to avoid religious persecution. Anika would grow up the only brown girl in her class, for which she was bullied. However she felt comfort with her parents. As Anika got older she ended up enrolling in a nearby community college. It was while attending college that she attended a party and met a man named Dean. The handsome man, who just happened to look exactly like her favorite Bollywood star, claimed that he was in town just visiting family. Following that, Anika had the wildest night of her life, awakening the next morning naked in a nearby forest.

She would quickly learn that she was pregnant. While initially considering adoption, Anika would ultimately decide to keep the child, dropping out of college. Anika would end up moving back in with her parents, who helped her with the child. Named Hakim after her grandfather, Anika’s son would grow up with love. From a young age it was clear that Hakim was overly emotional, getting riled up easily.

In school he would struggle with many classes, but would excel at English and Drama class. By the time Hakim was in middle school, he had decided that he wanted to be an actor. In high school Hakim was in every theater production, though never as the lead character. Upon graduating high school with mostly alright grades, Hakim would declare that he was going to New York to be an actor.

However with no monetary support, Hakim just ended up living in poverty, working at a bodega near his tiny apartment. After less than a year there, Hakim gave up and returned home. Mostly just lying around his grandparent’s house, Hakim would eventually appear in some local plays produced in the nearby county.

It was after one such show that Hakim would meet Dean, except now he looked like Hakim’s favorite Bollywood star. Dean would claim to be Hakim’s father, which Hakim had a hard time believing. What was even harder to believe was Dean saying that he was in fact the Greek God Dionysus. However, Dean, or Dionysus, would prove this by teleporting the father and son to a temple in Greece.

Now believing his father, Hakim would be told of his status as a demi-god and how, if he chooses, could potentially become a full god. While having power did seem cool to Hakim, he wanted to focus on the mortal world for know. Dionysus would then depart, but not before telling Hakim to go for whatever he wanted in life.

Taking these words to heart, Hakim would spend all of his money to move to Los Angeles. Like New York, it was hard to break into the film industry. That was until Hakim realized that he had inherited some powers from his father. He could do a perfect recall of anything he heard, making him great at accents and impressions. So Hakim would be cast in some low budget movies.

To celebrate this, Hakim and his friends would have a massive party, the wildest one in Hakim’s life. That night would change Hakim. For one thing he learned he was bisexual by waking up in bed with a man and woman. And he had a vision that told him to change his name. So he became River Seth.

River would spend the next few years getting small roles, and even occasionally writing scripts himself, though mostly for low budget horror. However, on his twenty-seventh birthday River would be offered a chance to audition for a major movie. Unfortunately he would also learn from Dionysus that this generation’s ascension challenge was starting in a year.

Torn between becoming a famous actor or a literal god, River was having a hard time deciding. As of right now he is attempting to do both, auditioning for movies while also attending lessons at Pandora Agency.
