If you click on her picture above, you can see her with her natural hair color.

I have a long, thick scar on my right forearm from where I got sliced open by a sword in my first year in training, and another scar on my abdomen from where a spear pierced me. I get quite competitive in my training. Was nothing. Merely a flesh wound. (Brynn smirks.) As far as piercings go, I took all my piercings out once I began taking my training seriously. Used to have my nose, lower lip and ears pierced. [b][color=lavender]Personal Style:[/color][/b] She has a sort of carefree, "badass" grunge/greaser style she likes to sport when she's not in [url=https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/xCsAAOSwZR9ac2Fc/s-l300.jpg]full armor[/url]. Sometimes a t-shirt and a pair of torn up jeans do the trick for her. She prefers boots and hightop canvas shoes with her jeans, but in shorts, she would prefer sandals or completely barefoot. Her hair is almost always down, except when she is in battle. She ties it up in a tight bun. Every now and again Brynn will put on makeup but tends to leave it off and go with a more natural look. Besides, who has time to put make-up on when they're busy kicking ass? Plus, putting makeup on just to go into battle is absolutely pointless, amirite? [hr][hr][h3][b][i][color=lavender][center]Psychology[/center][/color][/i][/b][/h3] [i][color=lavender][center]Selfless * Competitive * Observant/Conscientious * Sarcastic * Loyal * Unyielding[/center][/color][/i] [b][color=lavender]Sexuality:[/color][/b] Bisexual [b][color=lavender]Relationship Status:[/color][/b] Single, not looking [b][color=lavender]Personality:[/color][/b] Brynn, to most, has this "I'm better than you" vibe about her. Like one of those snot-nosed popular brats in high school who thinks everyone is beneath her. Quite the opposite in Brynn's case, except she [i]does[/i] have a serious case of RBF. Brynn is very much about helping others way before she even thinks of herself, she just tends to be super competitive when it comes to training. She tries not to gloat, but sometimes she can't help it. She knows she's good at what she does, but she [i]does[/i] like to help others out and give them pointers, especially the newer campers. She may only be 16, but she kind of acts like the Mother Hen of the Athena cabin, and even with some of the other campers in other cabins as well. She loves working with others but doesn't mind lone wolf missions/training sessions, either. She can work with both. If you really get to know Brynn, she tends to be quite sarcastic. She's loyal to a fault and will do anything and everything in her power to protect her friends. [b][color=lavender]Fatal Flaw:[/color][/b] Indecisiveness [b][color=lavender]Habits:[/color][/b] Drinking herbal tea, playing with her hair, talking to herself, hums and sings to herself, staying up late, usually skips lunch, quite argumentative, etc. [b][color=lavender]Hobbies:[/color][/b] Brynn tends to keep her hobbies to her training and reading. If she's not playing Cap the Flag or training, you'll be able to find her in the cabin reading scrolls or out at the lake reading a novel.

[/list][hr][hr][h3][b][color=lavender][center][i]History[/i][/center][/color][/b][/h3] [b][color=lavender]Biography:[/color][/b] Brynn's coming to be was anything short of a miracle.. I mean, as are any of Athena's children. Bronwyn was born to a man named [url=https://i.pinimg.com/originals/ba/4c/3d/ba4c3d22c8ce7c110d8a9f5eea836a8c.jpg]Vernon Knowles[/url]. Vern grew up in Oregon but shortly after reaching manhood he fled to the city streets of Brooklyn to take up work, and spend many more years living there. Construction was flourishing at the time, and it seemed he was never out of work. Hardly had any downtime, but Vern knew he'd eventually have to make time in order to someday start a family of his own. Unbeknownst to him, that gift would be granted to him in the form of a little bundle wrapped up in a deep red blanket, a note pinned to the front of it. He'd read the note and realize what he'd been given, and tasked with. He'd go on to tell his family members that he'd decided to adopt a child rather than waste time trying to find someone to be with who could provide a said family for him.. with him. Vern spent the first few years raising Brynn on his own. As Brynn grew, her abilities began to show through. At the young age of 4, just on the cusp of her 5th birthday, Brynn's father sent her away to camp to begin her training. Being a young child, Brynn didn't take to it too well the first summer. Not only did she not understand why she had been sent there in the first place, but it was also the fact she was nearly killed upon entering the camp that had her freaked out. A manticore chased her into camp, managing to swipe her across her back with its gnarly claws. A satyr and a few older campers heard her screams and came out to fight off the beast, helping her into the safety of the camp. After she was treated for her wounds and calmed down, Brynn was told of who she was and where she came from, and where she was for the summer. Although her mother claimed her right away, upon arriving, she did not get to meet her. Much to young Brynn's disappointment. She returned home for the school year, and the following year came back with a vengeance to learn all that she could and make her daddy proud. And her mother, Athena, as well of course. Brynn grew to hold no ill-will towards her mother after learning the reasons why her mother had to stay away. Brynn spent years going to camp during the summers until the year 2017 came, Brynn being at the ripe age of 13. It was time to head off back to camp, and she was as excited as ever. Unbeknownst to Brynn, she had been being hunted for several weeks prior. Vern was getting their truck ready to make the trip down to camp when they were attacked by a fairly large cyclops. Unfortunately, there's no happy ending to this story. Without going into too much detail, Brynn's father didn't make it out alive. He sacrificed himself for his daughter's life, and managed to allow her to escape. Luckily by this age, Vern had taught her how to properly drive and she did just that, all the way to camp. She's been inside the camp walls, since. A fire had somehow been started in their home, so it wasn't very hard to have faked her death. She's since stayed at camp and has made a year-round home out of it. Since her father's death, her training has become more intense and she in herself has become more fierce. She's more than ready to take on her next quest. They help her clear her mind. Sitting around camp for extended periods of time makes her antsy. [b][color=lavender]How Long Have They Been At Camp Half-Blood:[/color][/b] Brynn used to spend only the summers here. She began coming every summer starting in 2009 when she turned 5 in the camp walls. Course you can't have a young Olympian crossing over through the gates of camp without a little game of cat and mouse, can you? So, of course, she was chased into camp. A manticore nearly had killed her on the way in. And as of a few years ago, Brynn has since become a year-rounder.

It's just been kinda awkward ever since she and Ry came back from their quest. I think something happened between them, but I'm not entirely sure. I really hope I'm wrong, cause if not... I could be crossing into some dangerous waters if anything ever happened between Ryland and I."[/i] Brynn and Keira are good friends. There's no [i]real[/i] tenseness between the two, Brynn just keeps on her toes for the simple fact she knows her friend crushes on Ryland just the same as she does. Although, Brynn has noted just how deep Keira's feelings for the boy are, Brynn has kept a further distance from Ryland (on a more-than-friends-level) due to the fact she has high respect for the Daughter of Poseidon, and wouldn't dare betray her like that. Girls gotta have a code, don't they? [hr] 👋🌓 [b][color=purple]Marco DePaulo[/color][/b] 🌓👋 [i]"Marco is.. quite the character, I'll give him that much."[/i] Brynn hasn't had much personal interaction with him, but from afar she seems to be okay with him. Personally, children of Aphrodite put Brynn on a bit of an edge. For someone who doesn't care so much about looks or fashion, when someone starts talking about it (especially with a real passion), it makes Brynn want to turn around and walk the other way. Just not something the girl could, or probably will ever, get into. Tends to keep a distance, but aside from all that, she has no problems with Marco, personally. [hr] 💜💘 [b][color=#0072bc]Ryland Astrapí[/color][/b] 💘💜 [i]"I love Ry... If it wasn't for that boy, I wouldn't have any worthy adversaries. Or a best friend."[/i] As close as Ryland and Brynn may be, she tries to keep her infatuation with him under wraps out of respect for her friend, Keira. Brynn practically welcomed Ry into camp, and they learned how to fight together, eventually becoming training buddies. As unfortunate as it is, as it is for anyone 'in love' with someone, she is sometimes blinded by her liking for the boy. Sometimes the fact that Ryland himself is so blind in not being able to see that she likes him hurts Brynn, but at the end of the day she is just happy to have him on her side. As a best friend, no less. [hr] 🎆😈♨️ [b][color=F63030]Aella Perez[/color][/b] ♨️😈🎆 [i]"I honestly don't know why that girl hates me so much. Pretty fun annoying her sometimes, though. I just try not to take it too far, because.. well, I really don't wanna find out just how far that 'vengeance power' thing goes."[/i] Aella and Brynn aren't much friends at all, but keep a somewhat friendly rivalry going between the two. Brynn doesn't care too much for the girl's attitude, but finds comic relief in challenging her in training and such. Girl really takes it to a more serious level than Brynn, like she has to try being better than her, or something. As if she's got something to prove. [hr] 🎆💙 [b][color=silver]Rebecca Eventide[/color][/b] 💙🎆 [i]"Rebecca? She’s pretty cool. Honestly? I wish she was my sister. Couple times I wished I could even be her. I like to watch her practice her spells and such."[/i] Brynn and Rebecca are pretty good friends. They’re quite the competitive duo, and as a team..huh-ho... watch out! Dangerous. [sub]For all the right reasons, of course.[/sub] [hr] 👋🌓 [b][color=SlateBlue]Athanasia Theroux[/color][/b] 🌓👋 [i]"Anathasia... oh, Ash! Yeah, Ash is a nice girl. Trips me out that she's a daughter of Hades. Haven't seen the kid's bad side, and I hope I never have to."[/i] Ash and Brynn haven't really interacted much further than crossing paths through camp. Not much to tell, here. They're civil with each other. Brynn holds Ash in a good light, due to the fact she knows Ryland is fairly fond of the young girl and has taken her under his wing. It's quite adorable, actually. [hr] 🌓 [b][color=4286f4]Arthur Standord[/color][/b] 🌓 [i]"The boy? Uhh, yeah I haven’t really exchanged many words with him. If we do, our interactions are pretty neutral, but..as sad or as mean as it may sound, I try to steer clear. I know it’s not his fault who his daddy is, but... kind of a thing that makes one a bit more careful."[/i] Brynn and Arthur are friendly acquaintences, if anything. Brynn steers cleat of the Hades children for the most part, but remains friendly upon contact. As she would with any human/Demi-god. [hr] 🎆💞 [b][color=00a651]Ericka Yumia[/color][/b] 💞🎆 [i]"What can I say? She's my sister. I never really was into chess before she came to camp. I've come to really appreciate the game, as well as spending quality time with Yumi."[/i] Where Brynn is strong with her hand-to-hand skills, Erika brings in the other part of their godly skills. Not to say Brynn isn't smart, just that Erika has learned much more than her younger sister Brynn. Their journey into sisterhood seemed a bit slow at first. The only times Brynn would really see her sister were in the morning and nights when they would be waking up or going to sleep. Brynn busied herself with her training, but one day when Erika had offered to teach Brynn to play chess, she eventually learned to make time to play a few times a week with her. It became the hallmark of their relationship. While Brynn loves training with weapons, she's come to thoroughly enjoy the battle of the minds that chess brings on. [hr] 💜💞 [b][color=gray]Zoey Kepler[/color][/b] 💞💜 [i]"Not that I don't love all my siblings a ton, but Zo is probably my favorite of them. Practically like my twin. We like a lot of the same things, terrified of heights and [b]love[/b] to hate fashion. If she wasn't my sister, I'd swear she was my soul mate!"[/i] Brynn laughs. When these two are together, they're practically inseparable. Zoey and see a lot of each other. When Brynn isn't spending her time training, she loves to read her books, which puts her in her sister's path often. Zoey's been nice enough to let Brynn into her personal collection of books. [hr] 💛 [b][color=FDC05D]Amelia Reyes[/color][/b] 💛 [i]"I trained Am when she first came to camp. I’m proud to say she’s one of my favorite students, and one of the better ones at that.”[/i] Amelia and Brynn have remained friends over the last few years. They like a lot of the same things, so it’s not hard for them to get along and find something to relate. Especially books. Books are always Brynn’s go-to. [hr] 🎆💕 [b][color=2B9311]Emily[/color][/b] 💕🎆 [i]"Em is like my sister. Cousins in crime! Only one in the camp that I know of who speaks French. It's refreshing to get to speak my second favorite language with someone."[/i] Brynn loves her sister/cousin and would do anything for her. Some of the other campers are total a-holes, and Brynn is always up to kicking someone's ass in the name of Em, or any of her close friends and relatives. [hr] 🎆💙😈 [b][color=#EEE8AA]Ezekiel Kel[/color][/b] 😈💙🎆 [i]"Zeke? Hah. That guy, he's a pain in my ass."[/i] Zeke and Brynn have become quite the pair over the last couple summers they've known each other. While being great friends, they also seem to be great rivals, as well. All in good fun of course, but for all intense and purposes, Zeke is Brynn's Clarice, as Brynn is Zeke's Percy. They are always in a battle for the gold. Winner buys a round of nectar? :lol Brynn has high respect for the boy. He's come so far in the last few years since he arrived at camp and has done nothing but better himself. She's very proud of her friend for coming this far, and looks forward to seeing where this life takes him. [hr] 🌓 [b][color=c4df9b]Alana Colt[/color][/b] 🌓 [i]"Alana.. well, I mean, we aren't exactly friends, but I don't hate the girl. And from what I can tell, the feeling is mutual."[/i] Not friends, but not enemies either. These girls have kept things pretty neutral between one another. Brynn has come to realize Alana isn't much like her sister Aella at all, and is quite thankful she only has to deal with one hateful Nemesis sister. [hr] [/center] [/hider]
