Claiming:Camp/Emily Matthews

Name: Emily Matthews

Gender: Female

God Parent: Pandia, Asteria, Nyx

Mortal Parent: Daniel Matthews



Appearance: Emily is a young 16 year old girl with ghostly pale skin, long messy blond hair that reaches to the lower part of her back and grey eyes which turn blue under moonlight of the full moon. She despises make-up and thus, never wears any with the exception of mascara that she wears on more special occasions. She has a fragile appearance due her body build. She is 165 centimeters tall. She likes to wear comfortable and baggy clothes. Unlike many campers who wear camp shirts, Emily's common attire consists of a dark-blue wide short-sleeved blouse with lace, black worn-out ripped jeans that reach her ankles and black All-Star shoes. She wears a silver neckalce with the infinity sign on it and is never seen without her grey pair of hairclips which keep her bangs from falling into her eyes. She wears a lot of bracelets on both of her hands, both metal and cloth ones. Her fingers are, just like her hands, filled with silver rings with different designes. What many people don't know, the rings represent the moon phases.

Personality: Emily is known to be somewhat of a sour pride; but thanks to her power, she has very little knowledge of social conventions; more often than not, she is genuinely shocked when she realizes that she is being rude or uncouth; she also has an apparent sense of superiority over those less "clever" than she is.

She has great capacity for righteous anger, particularly when incensed about her race. When driven by anger or justice, Emily more often than not acts without hesitation to strike down those who oppose her; however, over time, she had managed to calm herself somewhat. Emily has a very hard time accepting defeat or failure. She has forgiving nature, consistently extending an offer to help even the most dangerous enemies before putting a stop to their evil deeds. However when her patience reaches its limit, those who threaten her way of life receive no second chance; she herself has stated that by not fighting against those who threaten the sanctity of life, she is showing them mercy; saving them from her rage.

Although, despite this, Emily refuses to to take up a weapon against an enemy, repeatedly refusing even when offered one; meaning that she is a pacifist at heart—she would never kill an enemy, no matter what they would do to her, or to those that she loves as she always attempts to solve a situation without violence; however, using magic is fine and dandy, as long as she does not kill anyone using it. Indeed, Emily has a great respect for humanity, as well as a great desire to protect it, noting that while they aren't the smartest or the strongest of races, they're interesting in a way.

As a child, Emily was radically different from the persona she has taken on as of today—she was, quite frankly, an immature little child. She was known as a spoiled little princess; expecting everything to go her way as she sailed through life without care for anyone else, being haughty, proud of her power, and generally loving to flaunt it wherever she went. However, this idiotic behaviour was soon smacked out of her by the harsh reality of the world.

History: Daniel Matthews has graduated at Harvard as an astronomist and an astro-physicist as the best one in his class. Even as a little child he gazed upon the stars and celestial bodies. The one that had always caught his attention was the Moon. As a child, he ofte got bullied and had no friends. That resulted in him having imaginary friends. His 'best' friend was the Moon, which then he had called Luna. Every night, he would talk to her and watch as the moonlight danced across his room. As he grew older, he spent less time talking to Luna and more time studying and playing outside, like all kids did. Still, once in a while he would talk to Luna. He hadn't forgotten her. He had just replaced her.

After he gratuaded, everyone was celebrating including Daniel. They have organised a ball-dance. Everyone dressed formally. His eyes caught a beautiful girl dressed in a silk grey knee-lenght elegant dress. She was standing next to a window and a tray of moonlight passed her grey eyes as they made eye-contact. He felt something he has never felt before. Lust. He decided to approach her. As he started approaching her, he realised that she has dissapeared. He looked around and saw her standing next to the window across the room. He got confused, but he kept going. As he got closer, he started to see small grey traits around her and that confused him even more. As he got there, the trails dissapeared.

He asked her to dance with him and she took the offer. She was moving gracefully on the dance-floor as the moonlight was shining on them. They started to talk and get to know eachother. They soon fell in love. He didn't know her name. They ditched the ball. After ten minutes, they found themselves lying on the grass. She then said "Pandia. I know you've been wondering what's my name the whole night." Later on that night, they made love and Emily was concieved. Pandia has suddenly dissapeared. That broke Daniel's heart. He spent months and months searching for her until one day she misteriously showed up. But she wasn't alone. She held a baby-girl in her arms. Pandia explained that she's a goddess and that she can't keep the girl anymore. She has then dissapeared. She left her daughter a silver ring and told her to keep it.

It was hard growing up for Emily. Her dad was always away and she was forced to spend time with her unemployed uncle. Her dad provided her with everything she needed, except for him. His work days now lasted longer and he didn't have any weekends free. Her uncle decided to dedicate him to turning Emily into a beautiful sophisticated young lady. He started teaching her French, giving her piano lessons and ballet, but she had different interests. She looked into the night sky and admired the Moon, the stars and other astronomical objects. She studied the constellations in her free time, alongside the activities her uncle was teaching. At the age of six, she got registered at a primary school in New York. Her dyslexia didn't stop her from being at the top of her class. Everyone admired her will.

Things were perfect for Emily until her 12th birthday. She was coming back from school and out of sudden a large snake appeared. It was a drakon. She froze. She had no idea what to do. Emily started running towards the apartment of her uncle. The snake started to follow her, but a young girl appeared out of nowhere and stabbed the snake with a knife. The snake dissapeared. she couldn't believe her own eyes. She got frightened and ran. She decided to keep the story for herself because she knew no one would trust her. She continued to live a normal life. At least during daytime. Ever since, she has been having nightmares about snakes which resulted in her developing ophidiophobia. She became more catious and aware of her surrounding.

Things were going great for four years. She had gotten a weird present from an unknown person. She got grey hairclips which turned out to be Celestial Bronze Tessen Fans, but she wasn't aware of that. On her 16th birthday, at the exact same spot she saw the same monster. The same thing happened. She froze. The hairclips, which were in her pocket, started to feel heavy. She took them out and they started to envelope themselves in dull grey glow. Little did she knew, it was a present from her mother. She had an urge to flick them. As she did it, the hairclips transformed into a pair of fans. She had a crazy idea. Why not throw one at the monster? As she threw it, the fan started to spin itself, revealing celestial bronze blaids. The drakon screamed in agony as the fan stabbed him in the middle of its body. It dissolved into dust and the fan returned itself like a boomerang. The fans transformed into the same grey hairclips she was holding thirty seconds ago.

She could hear a clap in the background, alongside a cheer. "Bravo, kiddo." said a man with a wooden bat in his right hand. "I tought I was going to do it, but you were faster." he continued. Emily panicked and started to run in the opposite direction. "Hey, I won't hurt you. Please, come back!" yelled the man. She didn't want to, but something inside was telling her to do so. He invited her for a cup of coffee at the nearby cafe-bar. He explained everything to her. She was mind-blown. ''A girl like me, a demigod? ''she kept thinking. "Now let's go to your uncle's appartment and get your stuff, we're going to a camp that has many other kids like you." said the satyr.

When she came home, her father and uncle were waiting for her. They both gave her a hug. She could see that most of her stuff was packed. They explained that they knew this would happen at some point, that they got contacted by a satyr telling them to pack her up and that she would have to leave. She burst to tears. Even though she didn't want to go, she knew she had to. She hugged her uncle and dad one more time as she grabbed her bags. Emily and satyr left to the Camp Half-Blood, while her relatives stayed in New York.
