History
Ariadne met Darren when he was hiking in the forests near a labyrinth entry. She fell for Darren's passion about life and the kindness he showed to everyone. She visited the store where he worked at least twice a week for a month before Darren worked up the courage to ask her on a date. After the date one thing led to another and Katherine was conceived. Ariadne warned Darren that she would have to leave shortly after their child was born, and that her family was different, so it would take nowhere near as long for their child to be born. Darren had always believed in mythology so just accepted that and didn't ask any questions, knowing that she could only tell him so much without possibly getting in trouble. They were a happy couple for the 5 months of Ariadne's pregnancy, always smiling and having fun, but Ariadne leaving was always at the back of Darren's mind. Katherine was born at the start of summer, with sparkling brown eyes. Ariadne left Katherine with Darren, telling him that she had to go back to the village she grew up in. She warned him that strange things might happen to their daughter, but that someone would come to collect her and bring her to somewhere safe before things got to bad. She left a beautiful bronze ring with Katherine telling Darren that one day the ring would protect their daughter. Darren had absolute faith that Ariadne would protect their daughter in unseen ways.

Rin grew up in a small town on the east coast with her dad. Her dad owns the local hobby shop. She loved working in the store with her dad and talking to all the customers. Everyone loved her bubbly personality, but the one person she wanted to love her had never been around, her mom. Her dad told her stories of her mom helping him when he was lost hiking in the woods. Her dad always said she looked just like her mom, and that one day she would go to a place that her mother wanted to go, and she would have more contact with her.

Growing up her dad always told her bedtime stories about mythological creatures, and so in her heart she believed that there was something out there. While people loved her personality she had trouble making friends because she was different, people were nice to her but never were her friends. From a young age her dad put her into Taekwondo hoping that it would help protect her from the things Ariadne had warned of. Rin excelled at Taekwondo because of her natural demigod skills, and so achieved first dan black belt by the time she was 14. Rin competitions in Taekwondo, and it was the only place she felt she belonged. Her dyslexia and ADHD made it hard for her at school so Taekwondo was her sanctuary. After achieving first dan she got to start weapons training, learning the basics of several weapons; including light swords.

Her taekwondo skills helped when she encountered her first monster attack, not that she realised it was a monster, she was 13 and was walking home from school when a tall guy wearing sunglasses so she couldn't see his eye, attacked her, dragging her roughly towards an alley way, but she screamed loudly and fought back enough to delay him, allowing a man who looked like he could be related to her to step in and distract her attacker long enough for her to escape. She heard awful noises come from the alleyway from where she was hiding in shock, but her saviour emerged looking only slightly battered muttering about one eyed idiots under his breath. The man saw her and flashed a smile, telling her he was an undercover cop and his backup was on it's way. After that incident she was spooked for a weeks, and kept dreaming of the man who saved her.

When she was 14 a group of girls kept staring at her on the train, but then when another girl about her age, with blonde hair and piercing grey eyes walked past them they followed her instead. She tried following them but they seemed to just disappear, and then the blonde girl re appeared looking disheveled, like she had just been in a fight. The girl winked at her and smiled knowingly before getting off the train.

Not long after her 15th birthday a girl attacked her, and Rin swore that the girl was covered in feathers, but Rin broke the girl's arm using taekwondo. The girl screamed in pain as Rin ran as fast as she could. A new boy named Joe started at school that day, and he became Rin's very first friend. Whenever strange things started to happen he was always there looking out for her and setting things right again. When two Telekhines attacked her school gym close to summer break when she was 16 and Joe revealed himself to be a saytr and told her that she was a demigod, Rin nodded, the information not quite sinking in in that moment. Joe told her to twist her bronze ring, a gift from her mother, and the ring transformed into a beautiful sword. Rin looked at the sword strangely for a moment before her instincts kicked in and she joined joe in fighting against the monsters. Rin fought with a beautiful grace, swinging the sword like it was an extension of her body, she took to fighting monsters like a fish took to water; thats not to say she didn't get injured, because she took hits, she was in experienced in the end, but she just shook them off until the end of the fight.

After the monsters were dealt with Joe sat a shocked Rin down to explain everything that had just happened, and told her about camp and it's safety. Rin was frightened, excited and worried all at the same time, but she felt hopeful that camp would be the place she could finally fit in.The two went to tell her Dad about the camp, and after discussing it they all decided it was best she was left for the camp, the place her mother had talked about before she had disappeared. Everything began to click in Rin's mind, all the strange things that had happened in her life finally had an explanation, no matter how unexpected it was. Joe went on to explain to Rin and her Dad that the head of the camp had given him the message about the ring, as he knew her mother.

Rin took Joe back to her house to get everything they needed for their trip to camp halfblood. Darren gave Rin a copy of their health insurance details, giving her their second card, and put all her important documents into a case for her to take with her. He transferred money into her bank account, before giving saying goodbye, not certain he would see her again anytime soon. When it was finally time for the two to start their journey Rin had trouble holding back tears.

Rin and Joe started making their way towards camp and the monster attacks went up in frequency, now happening weekly rather than months apart. Long Island was a long way from the small town she lived in, and the monster attacks were slowing them down. Rin was injured in a fight with a giant scorpion, breaking her leg severely to make sure Joe would survive to get her to camp. Joe had run out of Ambrosia and Nectar so she was going to have to heal the mortal way. Joe took Rin to the emergency room and Rin used the health insurance card her Dad had given her. The cast on Rin's leg slowed them down, but she managed to continue fighting off the monsters. They continued on seemed like months, but in reality was only 3 weeks. On her seventeenth birthday she finally made it to camp halfblood, battered but alive, and all her injuries were fixed in the infirmary.
