Personality:

Judas is an extremely intelligent and cunning person. He is very observant of his surroundings, and he often gets angry and bitter. He constantly gets emotional and furious when he talks about his mother, Veronika Steel; because of what she did when he was still an infant. Judas' has a deep grudge against his mother and his mortal family, which often reflects in his thoughts about mortals as a whole. Although he despises mortals, he finds some comfort in being with demigods in camp, and often relates to those who suffers similar experiences with him. Judas is loyal and faithful to the gods and to the camp, although he doesn't always show it. He loves and adores his godly father.

History:

Judas was born as a son to an Olympian god and a mortal woman aspiring to be a famous violinist, Veronika August. On one winter solstice in New York City, Veronika performed in a small concert, in which her music and beauty attracted an Olympian god's attention. The god seduced her, which resulted in a brief relationship lasting 3 months. Within the duration of the relationship, the god revealed to Veronika that he was an Olympian, a greek god from the ancient myths. The revelation led Veronika to ask in hunger for constant gifts and wonders; to which the deity happily obliged in the beginning, but then later disgusted on how materialistic and greedy a woman she is. Short days after their relationship ended, Veronika discovered that she is pregnant.

Giving birth to the baby was a scandalous affair for Veronika, whose career and personal life was destroyed over the scandal of having a mysterious baby. The baby was born on the Winter's solstice the following year, and was given the name Vorcha Judas August. The days, months and years past, and a decade later, realizing that he has a son, the olympian god visited Veronika once again, hoping to see his newborn son. The god's visit opened old wounds, awakening Veronika's fury and anger. Taken away by her wrath at both the god for abandoning her and the child for ruining her career before it had even begun, she picked up a kitchen knife, grabbed her son close to her and stabbed his body repeatedly. Gravely angered and disgusted over her unthinkable actions, the god summoned a celestial bronze sword and sunk it painfully into her body. he then cursed her to eternal torment in the pits of Tartarus. The god approached his dying son and restored his body completely to health. However he left a scar located over the boy's heart as a reminder of not only the incident, but also both his olympic father's grace, as well as his earthly mother's sin.

After the incident, Hades brought the unconcious child to the doorsteps of an orphanage for boys, where Judas continued to live until the age of 16 undisturbed by any other supernatural occurences (the orphanage is located fairly close to the Empire State Building, keeping monsters away). He remembered almost nothing of the incident, for the trauma had supressed it. At 16, his godly father decided to communicate with him once again. He told Judas of what happened when he was young, which finally unlocked his memories of his youth. He granted Judas with two items; an amulet with the ability to transform into a celestial bronze helmet, and a ring with the ability to transform into a serrated celestial bronze blade; the blade is the very blade the god used to kill his mother. Fearing that his safety up to till now was based on mere luck, he led his son to Camp Half-Blood where he could live in safety and security.
