Claiming:Camp/Song Byeong Cheol

Name: Song Byeong Cheol

Gender: Male

God Parent: Aphrodite

Mortal Parent: Song Byeong Chi

Appearance: 

Personality:Even though Cheol can be a quiet and shy person, he loves to joke around and have fun around the people he feels most comfortable around. He tries to loosen up a lot, since he isn't a very serious person. He loves to wear clothes that make him happy, boyish or not. He also likes to paint his nails and wear makeup. Cheol is also known to make people smile. He also loves beautiful things.

Although he's a quiet person, Cheol becomes loud at parties, letting himself be engulfed in the fun. Cheol doesn't like it when people lie, especially to him, plus when it's important. He feels like when someone lies to him, they don't trust him enough, which saddens him. He is also rather scared of large bodies of water, since almost drowning when he was little.

When Cheol is upset, he usually wants to be left alone until he calms down and builds up his cheerful, yet quiet, attitude before letting anyone see him. But, if he feels extremely depressed, he wants a shoulder to cry on, someone to vent to, and just let it out. When left alone, Cheol reads and listen to music, or watches his favorite movies.

Since Cheol is transgender, he doesn't like it when people call him a female, bringing his mood down by a lot. If someone ignores him when Cheol tries to correct them on his gender, a mixture of anger and sadness are brought upon him, which usually ends up with him alone. Cheol doesn't like a lot of stress on his body, so he tries to take a nap or relax to release tension.

Cheol is also known to be a large cuddler and needs something to cuddle when sleeping. If someone he loves is ever hurt, he tries his best and hardest to cheer them up; whether it's making a silly face, or even a funny joke. Cheol also respects people's personal space, since he has personal space issues himself.

He is also that kind of guy who cries at movies when something sad happens. Cheol also scares very easily. If something were to pop out in front of him, he'd scream and start shaking and stuttering. And when mortified, he cannot more nor speak, and tries to regain control over himself.

Dear Diary,

Hi. My name is Amber, but I do not like that name. That is a girl’s name, and I’m not a girl. I am 10 years old. My dad told me to keep a diary so I can write down all about my exciting life! Today, dad told me more about mommy. He said that she was very pretty and it was love at first sight. Whatever that means. He told me that when I’m older, he can tell me the story of how daddy and mommy met. I’m not sure when that is, but I really hope it’s soon. Anyways, a new kid from America moved to South Korea today. His name is Max. Max doesn’t know very much Korean, so I said that I can teach him. I also said that my English isn’t very good, so he can help me with that too!! I guess that’s really all for day.

Dear Diary,

It’s been a year since I’ve had this diary. I’m 11 now, which is a pretty good age but, today was awesome!! Dad told me his story. He was waiting until I got old enough to tell me. I guess I’m old enough. This is what he said: “When your mother and I first met, I felt like it was love at first sight. She had beautiful, long brown hair and crystal blue eyes. I accidentally ran into her while heading to work. I couldn’t get her off my mind the entire day. Once I got off work, I searched up and down just to find her, but I had no luck. Just when I thought I gave up, I saw her again. Without hesitation, I asked her out, to get to know her better. She politely accepted my offer. Her name was Anastasia. We had dated for a few weeks, which were the best weeks of my life. We drove back to my apartment, and that’s how you were made. I never saw her again, but 3 months later, I found you at my doorstep, with a letter simply stating:'' “Dear Chi, I’m sorry to make this so short, but if you remember Anastasia, this is her. My real name is Aphrodite, and this is our child. I cannot take custody of this child due to strict laws, so please, take good care our child. -Aphrodite”'' Without a second thought, I did.” I thought his story was really cool and amazing. I hope to fall in love like that someday.

Dear Diary,

Max, one of my best friends, is learning Korean pretty fast, the same goes for me for English. Max gets bullied a lot for being American. It isn’t far. I don’t understand at all. I mean, he’s just from another country. Since he still doesn’t know too much Korean, I help translate for him with a lot of the words he can’t understand or pronounce. I told dad and he said that it was great that I was making friends. He says I’m usually so shy and quiet around people. I mean, people can be pretty scary.

Dear Diary,

I’m sorry I haven’t picked you up in so long, I’ve been terribly busy, but, I think I’ve had enough of everyone calling me a girl. A couple of weeks ago, I asked dad onto getting me a haircut. In all honesty, I never loved my long hair. It makes me look like a female, and I am definitely not a female. I wanted it short, like a pixie cut. Dad said no, but I never gave up. I begged and pleaded until yesterday morning, he got me a haircut. After the final results, I was filled with glee. My old hair ran all the way down my back, which I hated. It was so hot and hard to maintain, since it was rather thick. I showed Max today, and he loved it. Today is also my birthday, where I turn 13 years old. It feels good to be 13, and with one of my closest friends. Max goes to all the same schools I did. I found it odd, but I was happy

But, something terrifying happened. As Max and I were heading to class, a giant dog entered the school. It looked terrifying. At first, I thought I was going insane, but Max and a lot of the other students saw it too. It only seemed to focus on me, as it charged right at me. I ran and ran, since I was terrifying and how it caused so much havoc, but I couldn’t get it off my tail. I tripped, and the beast was over me. I was in a panic, but I had nowhere to run. I thought I was done for, until a bronze weapon chopped off its head. Mortified, I tried to move, but I couldn’t. I was shocked at what just happened in front of me. The beast’s head and body turned into gold dust, as I gained movement back into my body, and ran.

The school closed down for the day since everything was a mess, so my dad’s girlfriend, Keira, came to pick me up. She’s been dad’s girlfriend for a couple of weeks now, but I love her already. I told her that my name was Cheol and I was a boy. My dad tried to correct me, but Keira insisted on calling me a boy and my name. Dad still calls me Amber, but Keira doesn’t. Keira can cook really well and I help her around the house. I’m going to hang out with Max tomorrow, and Keira said she was going to buy me all new clothes that fit me on the weekend, I honestly can’t wait.

Dear Diary,

After the events that happened, Max and I hung out the next day. His mom was really nice and stuff. Max had a whole bunch of video games that we could play. The main thing was his clothes. Since my clothes were awfully tight on me, I asked Max if I could wear some of his. Max already knew I was a boy and my name was Cheol, so he let me. When I wore them, it made me so happy. It felt as if they belonged on me. Dad came to pick me up 5 hours later and saw I had Max’s clothes on. Dad was rather angry at me, since I was wearing “boys clothes”. Once I gave Max’s clothes back, dad practically dragged me out the door to home. He lectured me that I was a girl and my name was Amber. I hated it. I hate it when people call me a girl, I hate it when people call me Amber. I tried not to cry, but I did. Once we got home, Keira saw how upset I was. Dad told her everything. Keira defended me, saying to dad that I AM a boy. Dad rolled his eyes, and went to his room. Keira and I spend some time bonding. She said it was “mother and son bonding”. I love mother and son bonding. We spend the night watching our favorite movies and eating snacks together. I wanted to do it again, and Keira promised that we would.

Dear Diary,

Yesterday, Keira and I went shopping for new, better fitting clothes for me. I didn’t want female clothing, so I walked into the boy’s section. Keira understood fully, so we spend almost the whole day picking out clothes that I wanted. Dad usually picked out all my clothes for me, which really isn’t fair. But, once we got home, dad said we were moving to America. I was upset, because not only did dad say I couldn’t say goodbye to Max, but I was moving away from my home. Dad said that we had to pack tonight and tomorrow. Thankfully, Keira will be coming along with us. We’ll be moving to Washington State, and honestly, I’m gonna miss South Korea.

---

During in that span of time, Cheol and his father and soon to be stepmother, moved to Washington State, and Cheol couldn’t find his diary anywhere once they moved. Frustrated, he gave up looking for it. Each year of his birthday, Cheol ran into monsters he desperately escaped from. But with each year, the more Cheol saw himself as a male. With his stepmother, Keira, by his side to support him, she helped Cheol transition into a male. He wore makeup and explained how it defined his face. Keira and Chi agreed. Chi was still unsupportive through Cheol transition, but still loved him.

At his school, many people found Cheol to be a “pretty boy”. With his free time, he taught himself piano, but it wasn’t easy. Luckily, the music teacher helped him play piano. By the time Cheol was 16, he could play the piano easily and skillfully. Keira and Chi were proud of their son for finding an interest in something he loved so much. He found a friend that was very similar to his old friend, Max, his name was Sun. Sun told Cheol that he was in danger many times, but Cheol ignored him.

By the time Cheol was 18, many monsters had found his location. While Sun and Cheol were headed to the plaza for Cheol’s birthday when a few hellhounds attacked Cheol. Cheol tried to run, but the hellhounds had him cornered. Cheol was mortified, he couldn’t move, when Sun sliced and diced the hellhounds. Sun told him that he was sent by Aphrodite to take him to camp, but since Cheol was stubborn, he couldn’t be taken to camp. But, without a second thought, Cheol went along with Sun to Camp Half Blood. As they were heading there, Sun gave Cheol a bronze necklace that can turn into a Celestial Bronze Scythe. Cheol was to be cautious of his necklace, as it could turn into a deadly weapon.

Weapons: Celestial Bronze Scythe
