Claiming:Camp/Ian Moore

Name: Ian Moore

Age: 17

Mortal Parent: Hannah Moore

God/Titan: Poseideon

Appearance (optional):  Chris Sheffield ->

Personality (at least a sentence or two):

Ian's got what some may call a temper. However... that temper only comes into play when someone decides to mess with his siblings. In a non-teasing manner, that is. Other than that, he's one of the most laid-back and easy-going guys you'll ever meet. He also doesn't really care how people treat him, he's got an iron skin after his family life. He knows who he is, and that's all that matters. If you don't like it, you can go cry yourself to sleep. Because Ian won't lose any sleep over it.

Ian's got a good on his shoulders and almost never cracks under pressure. He's also very good at looking at things objectively, which means he's very good at giving advice to his friends and siblings, something he thoroughly enjoys doing. Ian loves to help people and never asks for anything in return. Knowing that he did a good thing for someone else is all that matters to Ian. Ian will help anyone out, even his worst enemy. Because, in his view of things, they're still human. Of course, that courtesy isn't applied on the battlefield but that's another matter.

Ian is very self-deprecating, again that comes back to the emotionally abusive home life he went through. If someone like your half-sibling tells you that you're worthless and will never amount to anything in life, eventually you'll start to believe it yourself. As stated previously, this also gave him an iron skin, he shrugs off most insults and taunts nowadays.

History (more than a paragraph):

Ian Moore is the child of mortal human Hannah Moore and the greek god Poseidon. Hannah was a young preschool teacher at the time and Poseidon fell in love with her kindness and generosity towards kids. So he came to her in disguise as a single father of one of the kids. After a few dates, they made love together, and Poseidon never returned after that. He left Hannah Moore pregnant and alone.

Nine months later, Hannah gave birth to her eldest and only son, whom she named Ian. Ian was a fairly easy baby, never really fussing or causing all that much trouble for his mother. Which was a good thing, considering she was all alone. Eventually, Hannah married another man, named Jonathan Smith, or as he liked to be called Jon. Jon was a pilot for the USCG stationed at Air Station Cap Cod. Now Ian had a father figure to look up to, and even if Ian wasn't his own kid, Jon treated Ian as such. Something that Ian, who's now 17 years old admires about Jon.

When Ian was about five years old, Jon and Hannah had a daughter, named Joanna. Three years after Joanna, they had another daughter who was named Mary. Their little family seemed perfect, and for a while they were. That was until Ian's tenth birthday rolled around...

The family was celebrating Ian's birthday, and everything was going great until this great big, black dog came out of the closet. I mean it literally broke down the door of the closet and jumped up onto Ian's chest. Acting on instinct, Ian pushed against the dog with all his might and with Jon's help, the dog flew back into the chimney which sent this antique sword the family straight into the dog's head which promptly turned into dust. The whole family was very confused, of course, but there were more pressing concerns. Ian was bleeding very badly. So they loaded him into a car and brought him to the ER. They told the doctors that a wild dog had attacked him.

From that day on, Hannah and Joanna were scared of Ian. Clearly, the dog had been targeting Ian, and Joanna believed that they should have let the dog finish the job. Ian was a safety hazard and she often voiced this opinion. To his face, and while Hannah never openly agreed... her silence was enough. Jon would always put a stop to it, but he wasn't around very much. His job kept him very busy. Either way, those kinds of words can really get to a kid's head. It didn't take long for Ian to believe that he was a safety hazard and dangerous to his family, but he wasn't ready to run away. Yet.

There weren't any more strange attacks for over three years, but the next one did come eventually. And this time, someone other than Ian was hurt during the whole thing. The family was taking a hike through the woods even this huge-as* scorpion came out of nowhere and started attacking Ian again. It scurried towards Ian, but the young man jumped out of the way. Unfortunately, the scorpion accidentally hit Joanna instead, breaking her arm in one of its massive pincers. The scorpion scurried towards Ian again, who was on the edge of a ravine that was about thirty feet high. Remembering what happened last time... Ian rolled out of the way and the scorpion fell down thirty feet, disintegrating into a pile of ash at the bottom of the ravine. The family brought Joanna to the hospital, this time saying that she fell the wrong way. The family said that it was a bear that attacked Joanna... and Ian kept his mouth shut, since saying that it was giant scorpion would only make him look crazy.

Now that someone else had gotten hurt on account of Ian, the torment only got worse for the boy. Every day, Joanna would tell Ian that it was his fault her arm was broken and of course, Hannah would say nothing. Jon as usual stuck up for Ian but he wasn't there enough. Mary did as well, but Joanna would just tell her to shut up, which usually ended with Ian hitting Joanna, which only got him in more trouble.

Roughly a year passed with things continuing as they were. The family was walking down a street when the next attack came. This time no one was hurt, but the end result was still different than normal. This huge one-eyed, beefy man came charging straight at Ian who bolted it down the street without a second thought. The cyclops blew past Ian's bewildered family as it gave pursuit to Ian. Ian, acting quickly ran across the straight and the cyclops did as well... until a bus rammed into it at 30 miles an hour. It like the hellhound and giant scorpion turned into a giant pile of dust. Ian, not wanting to go back home to his abusive sister and mother ran off down the street and away from the accident.
