Mortal Parent: Jeremy Leah, a postman and avid gardener/naturalist, deceased. (Demeter) Jeremy Leah, a Pennsylvania witchcraft practicer, deceased.

Appearance: Anna is slim with dark brown hair and blue eyes.

Personality: Anna is shy, rarely speaking, but studious and a competitive archer. She also is emotional at times with blood reminding of her deceased father. She lacks any of the learning disabilities most demigods have, and is studious and quite knowledgeable in several fields though she prefers to keep to herself. She doesn't initiate conversations and really only talks to people she has known for a long time or trusts. She responds to those whom speak to her, but only answers the question with sufficient information to answer the question unless you are a close friend of hers.

History: Anna Leah was born to to Jeremy Leah, a humble postman and avid gardener, in Greene County, Pennsylvania. Her mother appeared to her father as a co-worker who also had an interest in botany, and they had a one year romance. Soon after Anna's birth, however, her mother disappeared. Heartbroken and never truly realizing the nature of his lover, Jeremy took it upon himself to raise to raise child. With no immediate relatives, Jeremy was the only family Anna had, and she was told since a young age that her mother was deceased. Her father would never tell her any more and never did.

As a young girl, Anna took a great interest in the natural world. Her father took her hiking and taught her much about the forest and its ecosystems. He also taught her gardening. Gardening became one of her favorite past times, and living in a backwoods and out-of-the-way area, she rarely had friends over. Plants seemed to blossom under her care and she was recognized at the state fair for a large pumpkin she grew. For many years she lived a happy but solitary life. Her closest friend and only friend that she ever saw out of school was a girl named Sally Crowe. Sally was never well-watched and seemed to just materialize out of the forest at times, but she was well-behaved and enjoyed similar pastimes to Anna. Though Sally was only rarely at the home, she was the only friend she had that visited her and maintained friendship with Anna for years.

In addition to her other pastimes, Anna took up the bow. There was an archery club located in her county and she discovered how much she enjoyed archery during her one year of Girl Scouts. Though originally a very bad shot, by the time she had been competing for five years (at the age of 13) she was a rather good archer. Archery was her only competitive hobby, and is one of her best abilities.

It was when she was 13 and only a few months before being 14, that she first discovered the misted world. She was at home, awaiting her father to finish his route, and finishing some work she had to do in school, but as she sat things began to get uncomfortable. The sky had a steel grey tint and the woods were silent besides for the wind. Her father's vehicle just pull into the lot when the noise began. It was a noise difficult to describe. A shrieking bird flock with voices shrill and high, assembled outside. Birds unlike what she had ever seen broke the silence of the day, and soon began to fill the trees. There was no way out of the house that didn't have the birds in the trees, but they were only birds and her father had intended for them to go out to eat tonight. It was in this instant that Anna was filled with horror as the birds swooped down and attack. Feathers like knives, beaks like razors, and cries like death made the scene absolutely horrific as her father was left in a puddle of blood the birds attacked her. She ran and managed to block the birds with her arms although she had suffered many cuts and she was bleeding quite badly out of her left arm. Somehow she managed to get into the thick of the forest where the trees seemed to form a barrier against the birds.

In the deepest part of she ran into her friend, Sally Crowe. Tearfully, Anna told Sally what she had seen. Sally then told her to follow quickly. When asked why she revealed that she was a guide, a nymph, and that the birds were Stymphalian birds of Greek myth. She then told Anna that the birds had meant to come and kill a half-mortal and half-god. Anna, who was in shock, failed to see the connection until the flock appeared. It dived towards the two, but thorns but a mass of thorns arose and the thorns tore into the flesh of the the flock. She was ever more so thrown into shock when she realized that she had caused the wall of plants to grow that had saved their lives. Later she was sleeping in a hollow sycamore tree after Sally and Anna both decided they needed to stop and rest. After a restless night, she woke up and found a longbow made out of a beautiful wood she had never seen before, she had experience with bows before from the archery club, and found it to be a very good bow. It had clearly not been there when she had entered the tree, but she took it and a quarrel of arrows. Sally asked but Anna told her she had merely found them.

Recently arriving at camp and turning fourteen merely three days ago, Anna is a member of Demeter's cabin. Weapons:
