Archived:Troy Lee

Personality
Troy’s very quiet and doesn’t say much, but he’s good comforter. He’s kind, gentle and hates to offend anybody. He’s also very ignorant to romantic feelings and can’t take hints from girls that like him. Though he has another side to his personality, when put in the right circumstances (for example being attacked or his friends are in danger) he can become a force to be reckoned with. He uses his quick thinking and reflexes to outsmart his opponent.

History
Troy’s grandparents migrated to America and then moved to San Francisco, California. His mother, Vanessa Lee, was seventeen years old at the time and if her parents hadn’t moved to America, she would’ve been one of the top teenage archers in Korea, but in a year’s time she had quickly made a name for herself. Then the night came that would change her life, she was staying up extra late in the gym to practice for a competition the next day when suddenly a twang sounded and an arrow whizzed from the shadows and pierced the bulls eye. She looked behind her to see the most handsome man she had ever seen and fell head over heels for him. That night...well…let’s just say she had the night of her life. She became pregnant then nine months later she gave birth to a beautiful boy and named him Troy, but she never saw that man again and was hoping with all her heart that he would come back to her…he never did.

Troy grew up without a father, but his mother loved him so much that it almost filled the void…almost…he always felt a pang in his chest whenever he saw a father and son walking down the street. Anyways from a young age he had shown a natural talent in archery and his mother started to teach him. He also was skilled in music having mastered guitar as well as having an awesome singing voice.

When Troy turned thirteen weird things started happening he always felt as if someone was watching him and one time he had actually caught a man following him, but for a year he hadn’t had an actual attack. Then one night when he was walking home from archery practice, something suddenly swooped down and hit him so hard he fell face down on the sidewalk! He looked up to see something he’d never seen before perched up on a street light…a harpy! Troy didn’t know what else to do, so he ran as fast as his legs could carry him, but the harpy was close on his heels. Troy didn’t know where he was going, but eventually he turned into a dead end. He was about to run the other way when the harpy blocked the exit. Troy quickly remembered he had his bow and arrows in his backpack! So he quickly drew it and gasped because what he pulled out wasn’t his normal bow, it was wood that looked like it was hand carved and the arrows had bronze heads! He finally noticed a note that was stuck to the bow that said: From Dad :). The Harpy hesitated at the sight of the weapon, but quickly made up its mind to attack! Time seemed to slow, Troy took out an arrow and put it to the string; he had never taken aim at a living thing before. The harpy was within two feet when Troy let go! The arrow flew threw harpy and it melted into a shower of gold before his eyes! He was stunned, but he quickly returned to himself when he heard a clop clop behind him. Thinking it was another monster he raced home!

Vanessa was in the kitchen when Troy burst in sweating, panting and with a wild look in his eyes, he was half way through his story when someone knocked on the door. It was a boy about Troy’s age with curly hair and had crutches. He told them his name was Henry Greenwood and we told us all about the gods and how Troy was a demigod. The next day the two went on a plane to New York and from there they went Camp Half Blood where he was instantly claimed as the son of Apollo.
