Claiming:Camp/Nin Daemon

--The bird of Death is my name, Eating my wings to make me tame (talk) 20:10, June 5, 2015 (UTC)

Name: Nin Daemon

Gender: Male

God Parent: Nyx

Mortal Parent: Deceased (Alex Daemon)

Appearance: He is six feet and physically fit with a stocky but graceful build. He has dark ebony skin that hints at my mixed island culture. He wears brown contacts that hide his dark almost pitch black eye color and usually has on his black trench coat and dark to blood red clothes. He has a deep and insane glee in his eyes like an abyss that journeys down forever. He has a smile that would defrost the heart of an icy nun but has a maniac tilt when he is excited. He has lushes wild and wavy hair that he does not bother to keep up with but stays neat in a wild boy kind of way. To top all that off he wore orange sunglasses with a circular frame that he only took off when he was ready to kill.

Personality: He is a high, cold, aloof, individual who delights in the darkness in the night. He runs rampant through girls hearts if only to break them while smiling like a madman. He doesn't care for friends family or love he only cares for himself and even at that extent his own enjoyment. He has been called a wide assortment of names that range from psychopath to demon child and he plans to prove everyone right.

History: Dad was not a man of many word and a man of even fewer emotions but he was a person who took action and never hesitated I knew my dad loved me through his actions maybe a card or a hug out of no where even breakfast in bed sometimes. We were always cool as long as I didn't go into the closet but I am only sad that he wasn't around more without him I had no one in my life really and forget about who my mom was I never knew her. Dad always said it was his work that called him away so often but he never did tell me what he did. I think he was a acrobat or maybe a gymnasts even a free runner or stunt man because that would be the only explanation for the things he did. He did show me how to do a lot of what he did though like flips and kicks and punches and wall running even how to walk on my hands my dad kept me fit and I always had a good time with him. Well up until things started to go wrong and dad started to act funny pacing and jumping at noises. He sent me away to a type of military school he said to me "never stop training and I love you" then sent me away for a while. It was a couple months later that I finally came back home and stronger then ever but nothing prepared me for the sight I saw on the couch. My dad was sitting up right on the couch his head poking above the headrest I chuckled because I thought I could sneak up on him. I walked around to wake him up and found a sword piercing directly through his chest and his breathing shallow. I didn't want to believe he was going to die I could not believe it so I pulled the sword out and blood rushed out of the wound, he smiled at me and said weakly "Keep this sword the iron will help you kill monsters I love my little Nin" he handed me a key and looked at the closet door then his head slumped forward and he was gone. I called 911 immediately but ultimately they couldn't save him he died leaving me alone in this world and never told me what I was or what is coming my way. In the end I guess he did it to protect me he was my dad after all but I don't think anyone could've stopped what was happening.

What happened to his dad left him traumatized made him flip and turn into something unrecognizable, he changed on that day and held the sword as a reminder of that change he kept the sword as a reminder for revenge. With the death of his dad things came to light like his heritage who his dad was even what his dad used to do. One day gong through his dads study he found a chest inside the chest was a roll of this razor wire that was a weird type of iron called stygian by father, a black trench coat, some blood red gloves, a pair of circular sunglasses ,and a book with a photo and a lot of cash inside. Inside the book was a message from dad and it read "If you are reading this then I gone my little Nin and I am sad we didn't have more time together but now you need to get somewhere safe, In the photo there are two people me and your uncle find him and he will explain everything call the number". With little else then the stuff in the box a few bags and a phone number I left, setting out to find an uncle I never even knew I had. I used the money to buy a payphone and called the number on the card a voice picked up and said "long time and no reply shadow how long has it been brother since you called me", I replied "my name is not shadow my name is not shadow my name is Nin Daemon and I am looking for my uncle. About an hour later a black car pulled up and the window rolled down, a man leaned out and asked if I was Nin Daemon I replied yes then he opened the door. I looked around wondering what I was getting myself into then he said "Get it" in a voice that left no room for questions so I got in. We drove in silence for what felt like hours he didn't speak and neither did I until the car pulled up along side a house. Getting out something was nagging me so I tentatively asked what today is and he said "march 22" I smiled sadly and said "today is my birthday and I am 11 now", he grunted and we walked into the house. That was the beginning of the end because that day I stepped into the house the old me was gone forever and the new me was something even I did not recognize.

It turned out the man in the car was my uncle Seth Daemon and he told me what my father used to do. My father was a mercenary that generally specialized in target killing, in other words my father was an assassin and so was my uncle and most of the people in my family. My father left that life behind in Haiti but your past has a way of catching up to you, apparently you never stop being an assassin and leaving means death. He was gone a lot in order to remain untraceable to throw my family off his scent so to speak, he did well but there were other people looking for him. My uncle asked me one day if I wanted revenge for what happened, if I wanted retribution for what those bastards did and I did I craved it like my next breath I told him and he smiled and ruffled my hair telling me that I have a lot to learn then a lot more to learn. For four years I trained with my uncle honing my skills with the weapon my father used before me the razor wires. It turns out his name was shadow the puppeteer in his circles using razor wires to end enemies by strangling or dissection, using the wire as a rope or a lasso looping it around multiple enemies necks and giving a firm pull he could end five lives at once I pushed myself to do ten. That was not the only thing he trained me for though the katana I would not allow myself to let go of was my weapon of choice to strike my enemies down with one stroke was my pleasure, the blade was engraved with tendrils that ran along it's length they were visible when drenched with blood and that was a sight I saw often. He took my fathers training to the next level I would have to wall run through spikes ,do flips over sliding floors, even face enemies while blindfolded. All this in my life and I felt something steadily growing a hatred a burning pit of anger inside of me a need for the vengeance of my fathers life and that pushed me even further. Mercs attack at night and night became my playground by the age of thirteen I had killed over sixty men and had become known in my fathers circles as " bird of death" never smiling until he carries your soul on his wings. My uncle always told me watch my temper, though have levels for what I am about to do, restrictions and mental barriers. Each day I picked up a new skill hunting, pickpocketing, lock picking, disappearing, smooth talking, horseback riding, training in various weapons especially my katana and several forms of martial arts my favorite being Capoeira and everyday my uncle would retreat to his study after lessons to do who knows what.

One day I was walking by his study and I heard him yelling into the phone, then he started walking towards the door so I panicked and hid behind a column, when I peeked back around he was gone but the door to his study was open. So naturally I peeked in and to this day I don't know why I did or if I still would have done it, but I went in and looked around my eyes resting on the desk because of how messy it was. I walked over to it and looked through the papers on his desk they were clippings from the newspaper about a murder, my fathers murder, and a missing sword they speculated. Why it happened and who this man was he showed up no where didn't even have fingerprints. Then I looked to my left and saw what looked like a chart or board with more clippings and with payments and a red string connecting all of this together and everything finally clicked the blood rushing to my head and my vision going in and out due to anger. I heard the door close and I looked up and into the eyes of the man who called himself my uncle and said three words "You killed him", I saw his eyes shift and I knew it was true I knew my uncle had taken my fathers life. So I spoke the words and prepared to finally take revenge "target acquired releasing control art to level zero until target has been silenced" My contacts glowed then crumbled to dust reveling my dark almost pitch black eye color "permanently". The shadows in the room started circling and pooling around me and the room begin to shake as I screamed and lunged at my uncle losing higher function to my mind and exhibiting no self restraint. I flipped and kicked him while in a hand stand my wires unspooling from my belt and I wrapped those around my teeth, I kicked out with my right leg jumping off the wall and regaining my feet the razor wire now wrapped around my uncles ankle I shifted the strings and tugged slicing though his skin and then the bone. He fell to his knees rolling and pulling his gun out of his breast pocket, and everything slowed I saw him leveling the barrel to my chest his finger depressing the trigger I was to far away to stop him. Then I felt this pull on my insides and everything shifted the shadows next to him became alive and swallowing his hand crushing it and his gun, he screamed in agony and I relished in it, getting a high from his pathetic whimpering. I walked to my uncle pulling my Katana out and letting the blade drag along the ground making the scraping noise of death, I grabbed him by his neck and lifted him throwing him on the couch. "What did my father do when he died uncle". "no" I whispered "What did you do as you sliced into your own brother with his own sword", "ANSWER ME"! I slapped him hard in the face his head twisting from the impact. "Since I was eleven uncle you trained me to kill the one who took my father". "For four years you trained me to be the killer I am for that sole purpose". I started grinning "you were the killer the whole time"! I began to chuckle, then laugh, then cackle manically losing my self to hysteria then I looked at my uncle and he said in his native Haitian tongue "timoun nan fènwa desandan ombres" I shook my head and ran my sword through his chest the katana piercing the back of the couch. I uncurled my razor wire and it settled around his neck almost lovingly then I shifted the wire in my teeth and spun around facing away from my uncle, as the wire cut through his neck and decapitated him "child of darkness indeed uncle, I am a descendent of the shadows". I turned and looked at my uncles headless corpse and smiled "target silenced". I found a new part of me that day like a piece that was missing but, I had no idea It had been missing my command over shadows made me whole and I was about to complete my life's goal.

Before I left I got my dad's box back and put on his old clothes and the glasses and they all fit perfectly I flexed my hand in the gloves and found they were already like I used them before, I looked into the box and at the book once more seeing that something had changed or maybe something I had not noticed. It read "Ahh my little Nin I wish I had told you sooner about the night and I apologies that I did not but you have now awakened your powers and you can read this" I tiled my head to the side and kept reading "Your mother was actually not human your mother is the goddess Nyx, the goddess of night, the goddess of assassins". "I met her one night after I took a job to take out a target in Greece, as I was walking through the street that night I saw her, the most beautiful to have ever walked this earth your mother had my heart before she had even said my name". "We talked and we laughed and I had booked a hotel room before I knew it, I never expected that you would show up at my door that night with only a card saying you were my son" I tear wells in my eye "between you and your mother I maybe one of the luckiest men on earth and I love you both". "My son in this world though there are monsters and things you could not believe, in the card Nyx gave me she said there were trials and things you would have to face so I prepared that box for you in the hope it would make things easier". "The sword and wires I gave you are stygian iron one of the only two metals to kill the monsters in this world look back in the box and peer through the shadows you will see what else I have left". I wiped my eyes off and looked into the box my vision being stronger because of the powers I must have now, the box had a false bottom and in it was a book and a map. While looking over the map I saw that the contents kept shifting but ultimately lead me back to one place "camp half-blood" I whispered and when looking over the book I saw that they were myths and legends and descriptions of various monsters in Greek mythology. I smiled at the sky "Thank you father for all you have done and" I hesitated "and mother thank you also for giving strength, for the power".

I left the complex soon after killing my uncle grabbing what I could throw in a bag and carry, tucking the box into the bag last with a lot of cash around 500,000 dollars. I had to sneak down to the boatyard as not to alert the guards, I remember throwing the rope over the boat side and getting ready to take off when I guard walked out with a gun. I unwound my wires but he couldn't see me it was like I wasn't even there I had to test that so I got out the boat and walked behind him when I realized that I couldn't see my shadow. I was hiding in my own shadow and he could not see me but he was still holding the gun so I had to kill him, it was the easiest kill of my life when I slipped my wire around his neck ,overlapped the wires, and then dropped to my knee decapitating him. While riding out I looked at the map and the contents shifted telling me where I was right then and an arrow to where the camp is, the facility was off the coast of California. I rode to California and docked the boat pulling my stuff out and walking onto the beach, I remember the stars being bright that night. When I saw the waves start to become choppy and three doglike creatures came out of the water, I drew my katana blade knowing without a doubt in my mind this was something that I will have to fight my way out of. I referenced the book I had been reading on the boat and matched them to the telekhines, the barks and the tridents they were holding confirming what I knew. "Target confirmed releasing control art to level four until targets have been silenced permanently" I grinned and gave myself over to my battle training and to the bloodlust boiling through my veins. I assessed the situation calmly realizing that the top dog was a good foot taller than me. He barked at the other to and one advanced with a trident the other coming with a net a very simple capture drill from my training, I ran towards the one carrying the trident hoping the one with the net would throw it knowing his brother is aquatic. The plan worked perfectly as I saw the net descending I focused on the spot behind the other dog and teleported with my shadows, I smiled behind and whispered "time to put you down little one". I stabbed him through the back with my katana blade and in one thrust it was over his body turning to dust and falling into the sand mixing in with it briefly I wondered how much of this beach was sand and how much was monster ash.

Weapons: Stygian Iron razor wire, Stygian Iron katana blade with tendril engraving

Comments
Hello I'll be checking your claim from time to time, but first I think you should carefully read over the Getting Started Guide so that you can learn all about what this wiki is about, and get started on the right foot. –

Please separate the paragraphs for easier checking: how his parents met, his childhood, first monster attack, and how he came to camp. I need at least 4 paragraphs here. Anyways, drakons are monsters too hard to fight; plus, they only attack a large group of demigods.

I see you've edited since Broken checked your claim. In that case...


 * Stymphalian birds come in flocks, not in ones o.o
 * A demigod using his powers for the very first time would at least be seriously exhausted.
 * How old was Nin during his first attack?
 * How old was he when he reached camp?
 * Demigods don't just stumble upon CHB. Sorry, but that's seriously vague. From what I gather, he saw the Statue of Liberty, got off a bus, and walked all the way to Long Island and Camp Half-blood? What was the shadow?
 * I assume he got his weapons from camp?

That's all I can see for now :3

Is this claim finished? If not, you forgot to add the first monster attack and how he got to camp. The questions Omnia asked are also suppose to be answered in the history. Thanks

Since my questions weren't answered, I take it as a "yes." Well, he was using his powers from a young age, so I suggest to turn down the age of his first monster attack to 12 or 13. You didn't add how he got to camp. Thanks.

My apologies I only just realized that I could answer using the edit screen, and the answer is yes this claim is not finished. I`ll push back the age but I decided to do it by question so that it was easier to check the claim.

Hi there I'll be your claimer today and I have to say this claim is well written but before I can claim it I have to highlight a few main things


 * How old was he when he found camp and how old is he now please explain


 * the power scope of nyx is "Children of Nyx are typically favored and get along with nocturnal animals, such as bats, raccoons, ocelots, etc. " that doesnt mean he can communicate with the animals please change it


 * "accidents" what do you mean accidents? please elaborate


 * during that 4 years he was 'experimenting' with his powers was he attacked? please explain

thats all the problems I see hope to see you again


 * As Lemon above mentioned, the power thing must be fixed.
 * You cannot have a character claimed who has been at camp for an entire year. No loopholes or exceptions. The maximum amount of time he could have been at camp would be like two weeks.

hey ill be your claim checker for today and have to say this is a pretty good clim but before i can claim it i would like you to fix one thing.
 * 1) where did the whip come from when he killed the hellhound? I mean a whip doesnt just appear after you kill a hellhound was it sent by someone?

hi there I'll be your claimer today and I have to say your close to being claim but before I can do that I have to request for a few things


 * what happen after the first attack? usually there's bound to be an attack the following year and considering he found his 'powers' rather early he would be attack sooner than 12 (sorry)

hmm i guess thats my only problem with this so please fix it

Hi there I'll be your claimer again today and I have to say this claim is about ready yet I have to mention the mist.. He can be attack by a hellhound but I doubt there's going to an 'audience' regardless of that you may argue otherwise

Hello! I'm DrXax and I have already checked your claim. I will ask you to please fix some relevant issues for what i have seen.
 * First of all, I find it very odd that the demigod could summon a weapon in his first monster attack, however it is possible. What I do find very hard is that he learnt how to summon things from the dark at a tender age and just by doing it once. It is hard to control the powers, so he could try to make the orb or 'ball' of shadows.
 * Second point: hellhounds are also pretty hard monsters to kill, you don't get to kill them with just one strike, specially if there's only one demigod. This means that still at 11 years old, I see it almost impossible for an untrained demigod to kill 3 hellhounds. Maybe maximum 2 and he'd end very hurt, wounded and exhasuted.
 * Concerning to the same attack, it is also very difficult for Nin to develop and master his powers so early. You say how he can summon things from the dark and control the dark and etcetera and he's just on his second monster attack. Maybe pull that a bit down and say that after the years, he learnt how to master his abilities through a slow process, because he is not being trained by anyone. It is just raw experience what he's getting.
 * Lastly, please separate the claim into more paragraphs. It is hurtful to read for use claim helpers at times :)

That's what I find wrong in this claim. I hope I made myself understand and if I didn't, please feel more than free to send me an Iris Message and I'll try to answer ASAP answering your doubts. The aren't really big things if you notice, just fix them and what Mel mentioned above and you should be fine :)

Hey There ill be your claim checker for today and to start off i have to say this is a pretty good claim and is about ready to be claimed. However there is one thing i would like to address and perhaps you would be able to fix it.
 * 1) Hellhounds are creatures of the night and just like children of nyx can shadow travel so, turning of the gym lights wouldn't necessarily give nin an upper-hand. and two hellhounds would be pretty hard to beat for an untrained demigod such as Nin especially because fully grown hell hound are about the size of a garbage truck. I would suggest just having one hell hound attack her

Please can you state which weapons are made of celestial bronze or stygian iron? This is done to ensure equity among users of the wiki. It is OP and frankly quite pointless, to have a child of Nyx with so many weapons made out of shadows or which channel his shadow powers. Instead, I suggest you list his "actual weapons", (ie: not created through his powers) and just summon shadow weapons ic with his powers. Having permanent weapons which are made from shadows is against policy and cannot be allowed.

Ok, so I see multiple things that need work here. (Please don't be intimidated by all the bullets. I figure, if I tell ya everything I see, the process will go faster.) Yeah, sorry for the long list. I figure if I listed everything I found now though, it will save you time in the longrun. If you have any questions about anything I said here, or about your claim in general, or the wiki in general, you can contact me on my talk page.
 * First, please state, the mortal parent's name, where it says Mortal Parent. If you want, you can write in parentheses that he id dead next to it.
 * Would you mind explaining how the father died? This is not against policy, but it seems like an important detail.
 * The first hellhound attack needs fixing
 * Three hellhounds is a lot to come for one demigod that is not a child of the big three that is not on a quest.
 * Hellhounds act and attack like rabid/wild dogs. They would not, encircle him and try to intimidate him, they would just attack.
 * You don't just get your powers one day and know how to use them. I doubt that without proper trainign  or help, one could survive for four years with monster attacks as frequent as you describe them. He also would not just be able to use his powers with so much ease and fight the hellhounds under pressure, especially having never really used his powers before.
 * Hellhounds do not speak English. They would not understand what he is saying. (As said in a seperate bullet, they act like rabid dogs)
 * When you say he "went four years all alone" do you mean, living on the streets? In foster care? Please explain this. Most people would not survive 4 years on the streets, let alone a demigod who needs to be aware of monsters.
 * The CHB part needs fixing
 * I believe CHB is not shaped like a U but just the cabins of the Big Three
 * He has to be claimed at camp. People wont just know hes a Nyx kid as soon as he shows up

Hi there I'll be your claimer today and my only question for you is how did the parents meet?? please explain? and when I say parents I mean god parent and mortal parent (sorry if I missed it)
