History:

-Parents meeting: Obvs. Artemis couldn't raise me, so here goes. She was in the forest hunting one day, and a guy caught her attention. His name was Salarian Jackson. So I was given to him and he was told to name me. Hence the same last name.

-Childhood: We lived in the backwoods of New York. I was given the nickname Echo because when I was little, I would copy everything he said. I always loved to hunt, and my father was delighted about that. He was upset though, that I would never use a hunting rifle like him. I only ever used a bow. I would walk through the woods everyday (we lived in a cabin). I was never very great in school, except in PE and Science. I flunked everything in History, except for ancient civilizations. I always coastrd through the middle in school, never getting bullied, but not hanging out with all the stuck up jocks. I never took anything for granted and appreciated everything I got.

-First Monster Encounter: When I was 13, on my birthday, my father gave me my first hunting dagger. It was silver with a leather wrapped hilt. The blade was around 10 inches long. I thought it was great, but his next surprise was greater. He gave me the keys to my very own Humvee, and told me to take it out for a spin. I took my dagger and bow with me, and  went out to my favorite spot out in a little clearing, where I used to go if I needed time to myself. I got off the Humvee and took out my bow, while I set my dagger on the back of the Humvee. I heard a rustling in the brush behind me, and saw a figure emerging from it. It was vaguely humanoid, but with 1 major difference. I had 6 arms, and all had a knife. It was clear that this guy was not here for peace. I did the only thing logical. I picked up a pinecone and lobbed it at his face. Then I jumped back on the Humvee, and sped home. Too late, I realized I had left my best bow behind. I dashed inside, and found my father putting a cake on the table. I explained to him about the monster, and this was the first time I ever saw him freak out. He grabbed the keys to his truck, and said we had to go to "someplace special."

-Learning My Parentage: On the way to that someplace special, my father siad he had to tell me something about my mother. I turned and looked at him like he had grown an extra head. A million thoughts raced through my head, but what came out was something along the lines of "I just about died, and you want to talk about someone I can't even remember?" He then explained to me that the Greek gods were real, and that my mother was one of them. I was sure he had gone psycho, but then something clicked. The 6 handed ones were related to the Greek Cyclops. Suddenly, it all made sense. He told me that I had powers too, I just never learned to use them.

-Reaching Camp: Shortly after that, we reach camp. My father arranges to send all my stuff from back home, and to grab my bow. I was to stay at camp year-round.

Weapon: For long range, I use a bow. In melee, I use a silver kopis. For stealth, i use my silver dagger.
