History:

How they met
Janette Ryder met Marcellus' father at a bar she bar-tended at. He became a regular at the bar and always attempted to get her to go on a date with him. Finally she caved and they began dating. She quickly fell in love with him which led to the creation of Marcellus. As soon as Janette discovered she was pregnant and told his father, his father bailed and never returned; only leaving a golden wrist watch behind.

Growing Up
There was only one nice thing Janette ever did for her son, and that was giving him his father's wrist watch. Janette became a drunk and began to verbally abused Marcellus when she saw that he looked "too much" like his father. Therefor, Marcellus tried to stay out as much as possible; as to not cause his mother pain.Throughout his life he'd been bullied at both school and home. He became very distant from others and reserved, learning how to mask his anger, pain, and sadness. He had only one friend that he'd met in the second grade named Ren.

Monster Attacks
Around the age of 12 he'd started getting attacked by monsters, mistaking them for rabid dogs (which were really hellhounds), Ren always came to the rescue. The attacks were becoming more apparent that they weren't accidents as Marcellus got older. At age 15 Marcellus confronted Ren about the attacks. Ren then told Marcellus about the greek gods, and explained to Marcellus that he was a demigod.

Marcellus believed Ren, and went straight home to pack his bag and leave. When he made it to his house a horse that was on fire (Really a fire-breathing horse) was coming right towards him. In attempt to save it he turned on the hose that was near his front door and sprayed the horse, it's fire quickly dying out. Ren quickly caught up yelling at Marcellus to change the time on his watch, causing it to turn into a large sword. The horse ran at Marcellus spewing fire from his nostrils. Marcellus swung the sword making a deep cut on the side of the horse. Ren handled the rest quite quickly and Marcellus watched in awe as the horse turned into golden dust.

Arrival to Camp
His mother was passed out on the sofa, probably from drinking too much, when Marcellus left. On their way to camp they were attacked by a group of hellhounds. They easily disposed of them and made it to camp safely.

Weapons: Sword that can turn into a wrist watch.
