Personnality/Personal Info:  Ryers is timid/analystic and doesn't like to talk.He is a very big book worm and isn't very sporty. He is a huge introvert and doesn't like leaving the comfort of his room. He likes to communicate his feelings,by writing in his notebook, in a story like fashion. When he talks to someone he'll speak quietly or communicate through his eyes. He is very pesimistic, always seeing the bad in the good things. He always expect there to be a negative reaction to every positive. He hates it when people start talking about him, because with his pesimistic nature, he thinks they're insulting him. He spends his time on the internet browsing through current/past events. Everyonce in awhile he'll stop being such a downer and enjoy some time outside where he reads in the shade. He enjoys reading fictional stories, but when it comes to nonfiction, he will only read historical books or scientifical books. He enjoys history and science a lot, but he doesn't enjoy geography. He was born in North Carolina.

Meeting of the Parents: Marquis Verogard was a High School Science/History teacher at the time when he and Mnemosyne met. The High School at the time was short on teachers, after the whole change of salary. T he system went wack and a lot of teachers were either fired for going on strike or just quit because they knew they could find better jobs with better salaries. Marquis stood strong, he enjoyed teaching science, he didn't want to quit or go on strike, he wasn't here for the money, he was here because he enjoyed teaching teens. Since the history teacher left he had to take up the mantle, but he was okay with it. History isn't that bad. Marquis was in the lunch room with all the other staff members. When he got there, a couple of teachers were discussing a new english teacher. Mr. Barnes finally broke, he was fed up with his students and his salary getting lowered that he quit.  chuckled Mr. Warrant, the custodian. Dang, he was such a good english teacher too. said Marquis as he entered the room. Mr. Warrant motioned Marquis to come sit beside him. Who's the new english teacher. said Marquis as he took a seat next to Mr. Warrant. A red head named Ms. Erutaretil. said Mr. Warrant. Hm, I see said Marquis pondering about this. Well, it's been 10 minutes into lunch, meaning I have to clean the gym before the next class, see you guys later. said Mr, Warrant as he waddled off. A new addition to the staff, interesting Marquis thought.

The Following Day was interesting, Marquis walked into his class. His plan was to organize some tests for science at his desk. When he entered the classroom he found the new teacher seating at his desk. At first Marquis was confused about this. He thought the new teacher was lost and the office gave her the wrong class number. He walked up to the new teacher and tapped her on the shoulder. She was stapling 2 pieces togeter, it looked like a note, then she looked up. She had eyes like leaves from a tree, little patches of freckles and long red hair. Eh hrmm Marquis clearing his throat. You must be Ms. Erutaretil, I am Mr. Verogard, please to meet you. Marquis said in a welcoming voice. ''Thank you and yes I am Ms. Erutaretil. Yes, uhmm, I'm sorry, but I think your in my classroom. said Marquis with a sorta stern but also calm voice. Uhm, I don't think so, this is the class number the principal gave to me. Ms. Erutaretil said. Oh, well, I'll be back, continue what you were doing before. said Marquis sort of in a frusturated way. Marquis left the room and walked to the Office. Um, is the principal here. he asked the secretary. Yes, you may go right inside, Mr. Verogard. said the Secretary with a smile. Marquis walked into the principal's office. He knocked on the door, but didn't wait for an answer. You gave my classroom away!? said Marquis kind of pissed. Yes we did give your room away said the Principal. But why, that was my favourite room in the school. said Marquis dissapointed. Don't worry, we changed your room to the 3rd floor instead of the 2nd, now may you please leave, I am about to watch the Charlotte Knights win. said the principal with a shoo go away motion with his hand. Marquis left dissapointed, he was sad, but he wouldn't blame Ms. Erutaretil, she was really nice. Marquis walked up the stairs to the 3rd floor to his new classroom.

After the bell rang for Lunch, Marquis decided to go to McDonalds for lunch. As he got out of the school and onto the parking lot he saw Ms. Erutaretil going to her car. Marquis ran up to her saying wait. She turned around to look at Marquis. Hey, where are you going. said Marquis. I was planning to eat out for lunch today since its my first day and all and i don't know anyone. she replied. Marquis invited her to go to McDonalds with him, she agreed so they took his car. The Drive to McDonalds was silent from time to time Marquis would ask silly questions like how's the weather and all that stuff. Once they got to McDonalds they ordered and sat at their table eating. Marquis and Ms. Erutaretil started telling stories about their past teaching jobs and how funny some students were. Near the end of their date, Marquis was laughing and Ms Erutaretil was having fun. They had eventually started going out for lunch everyday until they fell in love. It was sort of corny but Marquis felt a connection somehow. They started going on dates and things like that. They dated for around a year and a half  until Ms Erutaretil revealed herself to Marquis as Mnemosyne, Titanness of Language. Marquis didn't care, he wanted Mnemosyne and him to get married, but Mnemosyne had to leave. Marquis didn't like this, but he couldn't keep her here. Before Mnemosyne left she gave Marquis a gift. It was a baby boy. Their son, Ryers.

History/Getting to Camp: Marquis didn't find raising Ryers to be that hard. Ryers was a quiet baby. Ryers never cried or ever really needed any attention. He would just do his own thing, like play with his toys. After Ryers was given to Marquis to take care of, they moved into this little bungalow in this quite neighborhood. Marquis still attended work but didn't stay late at school, he would go home right away to take care of Ryers. Ryers learned how to read books fast. When he was 3 and his father was away at work, Ryers read a couple of books just to keep him amused. At the age of 5, Ryers was in school and was doing really good. Eventually, he found his fathers computer and started finding articles about past/present events, he found this intruiging. Around the age of 10 he started reading high school/university grade textbooks because he found them fun and exciting. When Ryers reached the age of 12, his father passed away. Marquis fell into a depression state where he wouldn't go to work or talk to anyone. During this state him and Ryers didn't talk much, Marquis did his own thing and so did Ryers. Ryers started listening to music to cope with his his fathers weird ways. One night, Marquis was drinking and than randomly left the house, he got into his car and left. Ryers at first was confused/worried because he saw a vision of his father passing, that vision became truth. The next day, Marquis was in a car accident, where he perished. Ryers was taken to a Orphanage, where he didn't really talk to the other kids. They would just let him do his thing, and he would let them do their thing.

Ryers didn't really have an opinion on the orphanage. All he really did there was read and listen to music. Nothing Much. When potential Parents would go visit, he wouldn't show himself to them, he just sat at his bunk reading, thats all he did, read. He was at the orphanage for about a year before the event that would change his life happened. After a year at the orphanage, making Ryers thirteen,  a man in a dress shirt in some dress pants with a big brown beard walked into the orphanage. He had curly brown hair and plant green eyes. He walked over to the desk and asked the lady if they had a Ryers Verogard here. The lady replied with an uncertain yes than asked who he was. The man chuckled as if he were santa than explained how he was Ryers' uncle on his mom's side. The lady at first reluctant, than the man showed some id and papers and the woman smiled alright, right this way. said the woman. The woman showed the man where to go. When the man go to the sleeping quarters, he looked around for Ryers, when he spotted Ryers, Ryers was already looking. Ryers didn't know why but he felt relaxed and calm to see him, like he was familiar. The man signed some papers and Ryers went with him. They got into this cab, and the man asked to go to Long Island. Ryers asked the man who he was. The Man than again chuckled and said to call him Uncle Gida. Ryers found that strange since Gida is goat in Greek. The Cab dropped them off at Long Island,  at the beginning of a dirt path leading into a forest. Gida payed the man and the cab zoomed off. Ryers tugged on Gida's jacket sleeve and asked why they were here. Gida explained that he would take Ryers to a camp where they will explain everything. Gida gives Ryers a shiny blue inked pen with spathi ingraved into it. This means sword in greek. Ryers was now questioning of his mother's side was greek because it seems like it.

They started down the dirt path. Gida was smelling the air for something. Ryers tugged onto Gida's sleeve again and asked why he was smelling the air. Gida smilled, but before he could answer a giant dog leaped out of the trees heading straight toward Gida. Ryers jumped out of the way, but Gida didnt react fast enought and was headbutted into a near by tree. Ryers gets up, he's sorta of shocked about the giant dog, that Ryers has identified to be a Hellhound, but he runs towards Gida. When he gets   to where Gida was before, all that was left were his trousers. Strange. Just then Gida comes out of a bush jumping on to the head of the hellhound. Push, the button near the tip of pen and throw it to me yells Gida. Ryers gets what his talking about right away and presses the button. the pen turns into a sword. Ryers is astonished at first, but then he remembers to throw the pen (now a sword) to Gida. Ryers throws it and Gida jumps off the Hellhound,  pushing off its forehead and catching the sword in midair. Gida charges with the sword towards the hellhound and jumps on its head again. He stabs the hound once into the back of its neck, it doesn't kill it. Gida is then thrown off of when the hound starts shaking his head. Gida is thrown to the ground and starts groaning. Ryers runs to the sword. He knows that the hellhound will keep them both if he doesn't kill it first. As he's running to the sword the hound swings his claw at him. With quick thinking, Ryers slides to the ground, grabs the sword and runs to safety. He needs to gather himself together. The hound is now snarling at him, ready to pounce. Ryers starts to run at the hellhound, the hound does the same. As soon as they're about to colide, Ryers jumps and lands on the hounds nape. Ryers then repeatedly starts stabbing the hellhound on the nape. The Hound howls in pain before collasping to the ground. Ryers is Victorious. Ryers retracts the sword and runs to Gida. Gida begans to wake up. Ryers returns the pen to Gida. Gida takes it, thanks kid for saving me he chuckles. He then points to something in the distance. There, stood a doorway, a doorway leading to camp. Your a demigod kid, your mother was a Mnemosyne, Goddess of Memory and Inventress of Language. says Gida. Ryers was supprised than he starts putting the pieces together. It was true, Ryers was a demigod. They both headed to the Camp. Entering Ryers new life. Ryers has been in camp for about 8 months. Weapon of Choice: After arriving at camp and getting fixed up, Gida returns the pen to Ryers. Pen Form: it is a silver and blue pen with blue ink and a blue grip near the end. The button used to transform it is grey, the pen is used for jotting down notes or using his special abilities as a child of Mnemosyne. Sword Form: it is a blue silk handled falchion   with a rounded handguard and diamond shaped handguard. T he blade is curved to the right a little bit.
