Claiming:Camp/Danny "Nemo" Nimoy

Name: Danny "Nemo" Nimoy

Gender: Male

God Parent: Palaemon (Lemon Shark, 1st), Poseidon (2nd), Hermes (3rd)

Mortal Parent: Ginelle Nimoy, tour guide

Appearance: Nemo is about 6 feet tall with tanned skin, blonde hair, and blue eyes. He has a lean athletic build from countless days swimming, surfing, paddleboarding, and just about any other activity that can be done on or in the water. He typically can be found wearing loose shirts and shorts with dark sunglasses, when not in his wetsuit that is.

Personality: Nemo grew up on and around the ocean and is very much a beach child. He usually found smiling and is very helpful, especially if you need help with your bonfire, BBQ, or learning how to surf.

His one pet peeve is the be associated with Spock or Star Trek because of his name. He would much rather be thought of as a cartoon fish than a emotionless spaceman.

History: (part of Nicki's Ohana group) Ginelle Nimoy was a recent college grad, just starting out in the tourism and hospitality industry when she met a very charming man who treated her like a princess for all the things she considered just to be normal parts of her personality. She fell in love and eventually started sleeping with the man. It wasn’t long before he got called away to an office in some part of the world she had never heard of. After he disappeared, she discovered she was pregnant. Nemo was born in San Francisco 9 months later. His mom worked hard to keep food on the table and eventually earned a promotion to work in some of the oceanfront offices for her company in the LA area. When they arrived, Nemo felt drawn to the beaches and soon became quite a skilled surfer. He made friends with many of the beach regulars and store owners.

When he was 14, he ran into Keira, Sam, and Dani. They had many common interests and all started hanging out together. Nemo became pretty much the big brother of the group since he was the oldest and biggest in the group. They started calling themselves Ohana, or family, because that was what it really felt like to each one. A few months later, he met a newcomer form New York named Drake. Drake became a member of the Ohana almost immediately. A short time after that, Aubrey going the band as well and the family seemed pretty complete. They spent many long months enjoying all that the beach lifestyle had to offer.

A year or two later though, Aubrey suddenly disappeared. The family split up to look for her, but that turned out to be a disaster since Keira went missing as well during the search. Weeks went by without either one and Nemo was really starting to worry that he would never see his little sisters again.

He decided to head out into the surf early one morning to watch the sunrise and try to relax. When he was passing by a stand of seaweed though, several fronds started to wave like snakes and quickly wrapped themselves around his legs, pulling him under. He struggled as much as he could, slashing away at them with the emergency knife he kept strapped to his ankle.Eventually though, one wrapped around his arm and made him drop the knife. Without being able to fight his way back up to the surface, his breath ran out and he slipped into blackness.

He awoke to find he was being kissed by a strange blue skinned girl. Then it hit him, she was not kissing him, she was doing CPR. He realized he was not dead after all, but pretty darn close to it. He sat up and coughed out some of the water still in his lungs. The girl introduced herself as a sea nymph before going into a rant about how poor of a hero he was for wandering blindly into the grasp of a sea monster.

Nemo’s questions and puzzled expression quickly made her realize he had not been claimed yet and was now in even greater danger from knowing more about his true origin. She help get him into hiding while she explained that he would have to go to a camp far away where he would be safer. She then left briefly to go get help and soon returned with Hermes camper visiting his family in the area. Nemo was escorted back to camp, wondering if he would ever see his friends or family again.

Weapons: No formal training, but is pretty handy with barbeque utensils and oars/paddles if he needs to use them. He is also familiar with small knives as he normally carries one to cut tangled ankle cords and sea debris away.
