User:Chi town 96

My name is Amiri Banister. I was born on January 29, 1996 in New York. I was born to Mia Banister and was

raised in the middle class life. When I was 10, I found out that I had god-like powers when I went to the beach.

I was absorbing the Sun's rays and releasing them from my body, like a reflector. I though I was getting

a HUGE sun burn. When I got home, my mother told me a little about the Greek gods. Near the end

of her story telling, she told me that my father was one of the gods, but didn't tell me specifically

which god because she told me he would have to claim me as his son. I didn't understand at first

because I was so young, but would learn everything in time. When I was 13, my mom

took me to Camp Half-Blood to experience a "new life". Chiron explained everything to me,

including the claiming of demigods. That night, a golden chariot symbol appeared over my

head, meaning that the Sun god Apollo had claimed me as one of his many children.

Throughout the next two years, I lived at camp year round to ensure my safety from mythological

monsters. I learned to harness my powers and combat skills. My basic and favorite weapon is

a sword made of the element of mercury. I am currently awaiting to visit my mom after two long years.

I am 5'7 feet tall, dark brown hair, dark brown eyes, and I usually wear a black shirt, blue jeans,

and black gym shoes. I am very goofy and silly, although I have a sense of intelligence that rivals

that of Athena's kids. I am also very friendly and easy to get along with. My flaws, as explained

to me by Chiron, are that I have too much loyalty to someone close to me I would do anything for them

and that I lose my cool when I am threatned in battle that I can't control my powers.
