Claiming:Camp/Claire Concord

Name:Claire Concord

Mortal parents: Adrian and Zathara Concord



Age:15

Weapons:Claire has a single, 3 foot long Imperial Gold staff (with a Celestial bronze orb at the end), given to her by Harmonia when she was young and first became a Daemon. Since Harmonia is one for violence, the staff was only made to amplify and guide her powers. However, the larger end can be used for bashing if nesessary. Claire also carried a knife in the shape of a cross that she found in the Camp. She hopes she never has to use it against any Demigod.

Personality: Claire is a very lighthearted person who seems to be very in tune with other people and their emotion. She loves psychology, psychiatry, and anything pink. She usually has a very high tolerance level and a nice level head. She is great at rationalizing and solving problems. However, Claire can sometimes have a dark, rebellious side. She has been known to lash out before at random times, giving her the appearance that she is bipolar.

History: Claire was born to Adrian Concord and Zathara Concord. She was a perfect baby, cute as could be, with big blue eyes and pale soft skin. Harmonia took note of her, seeing into her angelic heart and knowing that she would grow up to be a kind, calm person. Harmonia descended upon the two happy parents, first disguised as a long lost relative. She watched the baby closer, and watched her parents even closer than she watched the child. One day, when Harmonia was sure her parents could raise her correctly, she revealed herself and explained her motive. She wanted Claire as a Daemon (nature spirit). Her parents thought hard about it, finally agreeing. How could they refuse a goddess? They only asked for their daughter to visit often, and their request was agreed to.Harmonia adopted her daughter, gifting both the powers that her children normally received and new Daemon powers to Claire. Claire was now doubly ready for her future role. She also gave her parents tips on how to make her heart bigger, kinder stronger, knowing her important role in the future. Her parents raised her to be a good person, kind and considerate, so that she would be a "good" Daemon, like Harmonia wanted. Claire always giggled at how that sounded- it was almost like the Good Fairies in a fairy tale. She learned right from wrong, and trained to support and guide souls in both life and death. Harmonia watched the child grow, checking up very often, and falling in love with the girl as if she were her own daughter. When she was old enough, Claire was assigned to a very special place, one her parents were both proud of. She would be guiding the souls of Campers from Camp Half-Blood in life and eventually to the Underworld in death. She remember they day she was told clearer than any other day; she was just barely 13 when her mothers- both of them- told her. Claire was proud at first- SHE was chosen to escort Demigod souls! She realized that even though she had been trained for years, she couldn't bear the sight of seeing kids, nearly her age, dying. She didn't resent the gods, and she knew they were doing all they could to help their children. However, this didn't dull the stabbing pain she felt whenever she guided a demigod to the underworld, seeing their blood scarred bodies, mashed up limbs, and solemn pale faces. She pondered life and death a lot. Eventually, she thought about herself dying. She looked at her pale, ghostly skin. She was a spirit- not dead or alive. She began to notice the fun that the campers were having at Camp. She noticed the relationships, which she longed for; the friendships which she admired; the heroic actions that inspired her. She decided that it was better to live a short life as a Half-Blood then living forever as an escort to the dead. Being the true middle between divine and a mortal beings, she was torn. Finally, she seemed to have had made a decision. It pained her to do so, but she broke off all ties with her family (both immortal and mortal) and, one day at Camp, she never left. She had asked a friend to take her shift as Camp Half-Blood Escort, and her friend had quickly and happily accepted. Provided that her mother didn't try to bring her back, Claire was free.

However, another power was upset by this, even more so than her mother. In the underworld, Hades sat on his throne, fuming. He has gone out on a limb, GIVEN the right of Demigod escort to a Daemon that wasn't even his own child, and she had rejected it. And, to ass injury to insult, she has sent a crappy replacement. Hades had not been more furious in a whole week! So, Hades does what he does best. He placed a curse on her. Everything she had been taught seemed to wash away with the curse. It was almost as if she'd been raised to be an evil Daemon, tormenting and enraging people. Her rebellious side came out, and the new Claire was not pretty. Harmonia watched; she had understood the decision her child had made, even if she hadn't approved. She had fought the curse of Hades with a blessing. The curse and the blessing clashed against each other. Eventually, the love from Harmonia beat out the anger from Hades. However, the evil still lies in her, dormant for the most part. Now, when Claire gets angry or upset, the evil Daemon inside of her wakes up, pouring out nothing but hatred and sin. This has made Claire appear bipolar, and she is often rejected for it. However, she is still gifted like a child of Harmonia, and she always manages to calm herself down and ignore the rude comments. She tries her best to mend the broken bonds she creates with her anger, but some things just cannot be fixed with a demigod's power.

Needless to say, Claire is not allowed into the Underworld or Olympus; both punishments for her actions. However, she doesn't mind the ban and wouldn't go to either territory if she had the choice anyways.

Appearance: Claire had pinkish-white hair and very fair skin. She has sincere deep blue eyes that appear far wiser than her years.. She is short and slender. She still has a whitish, spririt-like sppearance to her.
