Other: Being new to camp, Zoe knows no other demigods than Eve and thus has no opinions to offer on these strangers. She'll let experience and honest interaction deem what kind of people these campers truly are. [h3][i][b]~~Personal Information~~[/b][/i][/h3] Personality: Zoe is a kind-hearted and trusting person, with a strong identity to match her big heart. Being the older twin of two daughters of Athena, and with such a firecracker of a sister, Eve, she’s always had to play the responsible role. She craves control above all else, whether that be in any social interaction, knowledge of a subject, or life in general. Zoe will tend to cool relations to a passing civility if someone is rather unorthodox and not to her liking. Enjoying those strange and knowledgeable, she’ll look past initial impressions to form her own judgements from her extensive knowledge of psychology, her chosen major when still attending Harvard. She will always try to resolve a situation through words and not violent action unless absolutely necessary. If she can’t hope to come to a conclusion, she’ll back out of the situation with grace. She’d rather keep her composure and not give another the satisfaction of seeing them get to her, knowing that such would be akin to admitting defeat, never an option for a daughter of Athena! Usually commanding a very strong presence, recent events have taken a toll. When not caught in some mental conundrum, she can be seen looking very vulnerable, dwelling on something that seems to have shaken her to her core. Between these bouts of melancholia, Zoe is all the woman that she has always been known to be. Authoritative, head-strong, and compassionate, Zoe is an enjoyable person to be around, but can be a bit trying when her need to be right, and or in control, exceeds the tolerance of those around her. Their loss, Zoe would say. Eve is the most important thing in Zoe’s life, her sister’s fiery will always an inspiration to her slightly older twin. Zoe may have been the balancing aspect of their sibling, but Eve’s personality is the driving force to Zoe’s own desire to go above and beyond what she previously knew what she could do. From cliff-jumping to rock climbing, Zoe’s willingness and want of adventure is a direct effect from her younger sister’s influence. Zoe usually cooks her sister ‘s meals, since Eve’s gogogo attitude makes her forget about such trivial matters. [u]Charlotte[/u]: Zoe’s second personality, Charlotte is a cigarette smoking, heavy drinking, and colorfully speaking personality that emerges when the stream of traumatic memories becomes too great for Zoe’s mind. Although rarely making an appearance, she invariably comes out when the memory of Zoe’s recent trauma rears its ugly head, forcing her to relive her attack as if it were happening in present day. Charlotte can control the flow of memories consciously and is ruthless in using every bit of knowledge and martial technique that Zoe knows. Extremely volatile, the slightest bit of an attitude either brings about her ire, or her interest. Zoe has “woken up” a few times to bruised and bloody knuckles, or waking in a stranger’s bed, not knowing how either happened. Charlotte is the protector for Zoe, but thinks she’s her own person instead of being aware that she is in fact a split personality. Because of this, she does what she wants when she’s in control of the body. While Eve knows Charlotte well, Charlotte feels nothing of Zoe’s respect for the younger twin, who always seems to try to hold her back! The only reason she won’t directly attack Eve is because of the girl’s superior strength and martial skill, but Charlotte knows Eve can’t match her own viciousness and brutality. Skills: Zoe has a perfect memory, but more importantly, an ability to perfectly recall each one to the most minute of details. This has led Zoe to pursuing some artistic ambitions, like sketching and oil paintings, to better understand her gift of memory. Her lineage also allows her to think quicker than nearly any other breeding of demigod, coming to conclusions nearly instantly as to what could be the best action to take, to lead to the most preferred outcome. This comes almost as a premonition to others, with her intelligent mind creating the various scenarios it creates many moves ahead, drawing upon the knowledge of her own limits and her enemy's tendencies and habits. She has some gymnastic talent, taking to the beautiful sport as a younger child and never losing the acrobatic grace that came with the years of practice. She is capable of long and complex tumbling routines and perfectly utilizing these talents in battle. Studying some martial arts, although not as extensively as Eve, Zoe is well-rounded. She's a yudansha (or black belt holder) in Aikido and an eighth-dan in Judo. For an extended summer, Zoe was flown to California to learn under Daniel Inosanto in the precepts of Jeet Kune Do, the fighting way that Bruce Lee founded and permitted only a few of his students to instruct, Dan Inosanto being the most senior before Mr. Lee's untimely demise. Thus, Zoe is quite capable of instantaneous, violent, and rapid attacks that evolve as combat unfolds. A fighter must be like water, must never conform to a style, must only attack in that vulnerable moment that their enemy strikes. These are the concepts and many days of instruction instilled into Zoe, which utilizes her natural talent for fighting and quick thinking. To this day, she asks the best sparring partner she knows, Eve, to test the boundaries of her ability of fighting, because "boards don't fight back!" (Bruce Lee). With her study of ancient cultures, Zoe is very knowledgeable of Greek and Roman deities, monsters, and myths, as well as a host of other ancient cultures. This allows her to easily identify new enemies and quickly realize the creature's or being's weakness. Lastly, she loves the ukulele and guitar and plays them late at night when she can't sleep to help lull her into a drowsy state. She owns one of each of these instruments. Biography: Zoe and Eve grew up in Marseilles, France with their father Raymond Lumière, who provided them with the very best of private education available. Their father insisted that the two go through martial arts training. While Zoe enjoyed the knowledge and experience, she didn’t take to the combat arts as completely as Eve. She excelled in Aikido and the throws of Judo, but didn’t enjoy the striking game of the latter. Even without passion, she went through the lessons to become a black belt in both martial arts respectively. This, coupled with swords training, makes Zoe a formidable force against any assailant indeed. Raymond never explained to the girls that his insistence of they learning how to defend themselves was for a very real danger. The girls were daughters of Athena, a fact he'd hidden from the twins since they'd arrived on his doorstep in their golden cradle, sleeping soundly side by side. He strove to keep this secret from the girls as long as possible. Raymond frequently sent them to different schools, under the disguise of character building and expanding their horizons. It had always been curious to Zoe, exactly why was their father shuttling them between schools with so much frequency? Zoe graduated from their final academy with the highest of academic honors, beating out her equally brilliant sister, not only a few minutes ahead, but now a few points as well! With this, Zoe was finally claimed by her mother Athena, a godly sign that their divine mother approved of the course Zoe had taken. This amazed Zoe and finally, Raymond told her the truth. Her love and respect for their doting and loving father increased immensely, now laden with the burden the dear man had held for so many years. The two were shoe-ins for acceptance into their first choice, the Ivy league school Harvard. Their freshman year went without a hitch, but early into sophomore year, Zoe became involved with a slightly older fraternity leader, named Henry. The young man was highly academic and excelled in sports as well. Coveted by the cliquish cheerleaders and sorority girls that the campus abounded with, Zoe was smug indeed with the All-American man. They dated for better part of Zoe's sophomore year and the twins were well on their way to becoming juniors, when misfortune reared its ugly head. At one of her boyfriend's fraternity's parties, she was on her second beer, talking to a couple of other girls. The party was in full swing and one of the infamous toga parties that everyone knew, loved, and alternatively, hated. Many revelers already had beer spills and other alcoholic beverages dying the whites of their togas. Most were sheets with a few pins, but a few, Zoe included, had true linen togas, perfectly pinned and styled. Zoe had just pumped out her third beer, when a friend got her attention. Before she could pull her drink back and keep an eye on it, a practiced hand slipped something into the receding foam. Finishing her drink shortly after, Zoe stumbled into the doorway into the large house's kitchen. Almost falling, she was grateful when she fell into the arms of one of her Henry's brothers, a familiar and welcome face. She readily agreed to him taking her to Henry's room to lie down and take a breather. The room started spinning even as they got to the top of the stairs and everything seemed to be blurred around her immediate line of sight. The fraternity brother was practically carrying Zoe into a bedroom, but too late, she realized it wasn't Henry's. The brother pounced on her and tore off her toga. What followed next needs not to be repeated, but soon the brother was putting his robe back in place and leaving, the door still ajar and Zoe both panicking and hoping that someone would find her and help her. Her makeup was streaked from sweat and weeping, which she was still doing. She bled in various places, including a bite mark on her breast. But the next person to come in was another fraternity brother, who instead of helping also sexually assaulted Zoe. So it went with three other brothers. When the last came in to the room, Zoe's heart soared in relief as she heard the sheet of a toga fall to the floor, for over the man's shoulder, she saw Henry! But he didn't even move to help, the red light of a recording camcorder saying all that was needed. She fell into a feeling of helplessness that she couldn’t shake until the roofie wore off and managed to escape with her car keys and a long coat of some guy, for it was entirely too large and the belt had to be tied quite tight in order to hide the obvious signs of rape and sexual abuse. She drove like a maniac until she made it to the safety of the apartment Zoe shared with Eve. Clothes in tatters and her longer overcoat the only thing protecting her modesty, Eve calmed her down until she slipped off into sleep. Unknown to her, Eve had taken justice into her own hands.. After meting out suitable justice, the twins had to skip town, fleeing for the safety of Camp Half-blood, a place their father had taken about with more than a few amused chuckles.
