Personality  Rosella may seem very serious and uptight at first glance, but she is really quite cheerful and easy-going when you get to know her better. She is fiercely loyal to those she loves and hates seeing anyone be hurt -- emotionally or physically -- and will defend those whom she cares about. She tries to stay optimistic and is normally very easy to talk to. She cares about other people's feelings and dislikes arrogant and shallow people, unless she really knows them well. She is stubborn and sometimes unusually grouchy if she is unhappy.

History  Travis Greengrass was the owner of a successful greenhouse, living in Trenton, New Jersey. The reason he was so successful is because he was a child of Cybele. He had moved back to New Jersey, his birthplace, after going to Camp Half-Blood himself for a decade. He believed he could take care of himself, in addition to the fact that most of his family lived there.

He met Persephone when she came to visit his greenhouse. It was about the fourth time that she had come back to the same place, and Persephone being an attractive woman in his mind's eye, he remembered her and noticed she kept coming back. He confronted her in a friendly way, and they soon started an engaging conversation -- as it turned out, she knew quite a bit about plants and anything about them. He asked her on a date, and she accepted gladly. They dated for about a week before Persephone told him who she was -- and it didn't surprise him -- Travis knew about the custom between mortals and demigods. He told Persephone who he was, and of course, she already knew he was a demigod, so it didn't surprise her. They dated for about another two months before Persephone disappeared. Travis, knowing that this was a normal thing in the mortal/goddess or god relationship, shrugged it off and went back to his regular life.

Four months later, a baby arrived on his doorstep. A note inside explained that the baby was his, and requested that she be named Rosella Amaryllis. There was also a belt sitting thee with it, and Travis soon figured out how to work it. There was a charm attached it it, and if you tapped it, the charm would morph into a Celestial bronze sword. Travis took her in and raised her.

Early Childhood

Travis wanted Rosella to have the most normal life possible, so he did not take her to Camp straight away. He did sign her up for martial arts class when she was six, so she would be more prepared when the time came. She went to school like any other normal girl, and she loved helping her father in the greenhouse, and the greenhouse thrived under their care. Travis did not object -- in fact, he was quite happy that she liked to stay near him. They spent most of their time in the greenhouse, and when it was summer, they tended to a gigantic garden outdoors. She was diagnosed with ADD and ADHD in the fourth grade, which was expected, seeing as she was a demigod.

School was a different story. Rosella always tried to be a good little girl, which only resulted in taunts and 'teachers' pet' jibes, but she said nothing of it to her father. She was teased and bullied like any other normal child, but her father would have none of it. He started homeschooling her when she was ten, in sixth grade, despite her protests. He only wanted what was best for her. He did allow her to continue her martial arts training, and this placated her enough that she didn't complain about being home-schooled.

On Rosella's tenth birthday, Travis gave her a gift -- a belt with a charm attached to it with a grommet. He showed her that taping the charm would trigger it, morphing it into a sword. He told her it was hers to use at the martial arts class. She asked him where he had obtained such an unusual wepaon, and he told her it was from her mother, who was "a very special lady." When Aidian was pursued further with questions, he brushed them off or put a firm end to them, telling her that she would understand when she was older.

He signed her up for a sword-fighting class after he gave her the sword. She was not allowed to use it, but it gave her some valuable training that she would find crucial later in life.

Her life went on as usual for almost three years.

First Monster Attack

A few weeks before her thirteenth birthday, Travis and Rosella were working in their greenhouse when a hellhound attacked, tearing into the glass house and scaring the living daylights out of both demigods. Travis told Rosella to run and unsheathed his sword, which magically hidden somehow. Rosella did what any sensible young girl would do -- she screamed and cowered under a table while her father battled the monster. Objects exploded and glass shattered as Rosella sat there, hunched up and shuddering like a small child. Finally, she could stand it no longer and tapped the sword on her belt, which she wore at all times, unsheathing her sword and running to help her father, who wasn't doing so well on his own. Together, they managed to kill the hellhound, but Travis ended up in a coma, protecting Rosella from a fatal blow given by the monster. He was slammed into the wall and several pots fell on his head. The hellhound, occupied by Travis, was not paying attention to Rosella, who sneaked up behind it and stabbed it repeatedly. It exploded into a great cloud of yellow dust. Neighbors, who had by then noticed all the chaos over at the Greengrass's place, came over to investigate, finding Rosella passed out next to her father, the Mist hiding the sword clutched in her hand.

Time In Between

Rosella woke up in the hospital a day later. She learned that her father was in a coma and that her aunt and uncle were to take care of her until Travis woke up. Rosella went with them and lived there. Thankfully for her, they did not live far away, so nothing changed after this, aside from the fact that her father was did not wake.

About eight months into her thirteenth birthday, she was at her aunt and uncle's home, tending their garden, when a harpy attacked. Screaming and stumbling back, Rosella managed to unsheathed her sword and swiped at it, temporarily keeping the monster at bay. She kept staggering backward, and the harpy pursued -- right out into the street. Rosella finally turned around and ran full-out, just making it across the street before a car came whizzing past. The harpy was not so lucky. The vehicle hit it full-force, and with an unearthly screech, the harpy was nothing more than a pile of dust.

Rosella knew by now that there was something different about her -- something special and dangerous. Not wanting to endanger family member, she decided to leave, to run away and live on her own. Pausing only to pack up a few prized belongings, she set out on her own.

A man approached her not a day later as she stepped out of the alley in which she slept. She was living in the deserted backstreets of New Jersey (not the safest place to be living). Before she could say a thing, a bag was yanked over her head and she was taken to the man's house. She was kept in his basement for about four months, physically and sexually abused. She was kept in barely livable conditions and only fed on a need-to basis. It turns out that the man was a drug-dealer, and he was pretty much drunk 24/7, making him even more dangerous at times.

Four months after she was taken, police stormed the house, finding a fourteen-year-old girl chained up in the man's basement. The man that had kidnapped her was taken to jail and Rosella put in a foster home, no one from her own family wanting her anymore, seeing as she was considered "unstable" after her traumatizing ordeal. She did not want to stay there, even though the family was nice, because she was afraid a monster would attack and kill the family who she lived with. Only a few weeks after being released from the hospital, she ran away, traveling up toward New York.

Third Monster Attack

It was a bad idea. She was in Guttenburg, New York when a hellhound sniffed her out and attacked, pinning her down before she could draw her sword. She screamed and struggled fruitlessly, being somewhere that no person lived for miles. The hellhound was just about to finish her off when a satyr stepped in, playing his flutes, pulling the monster off of her and dragging it away. Rosella, barely able to stand, stumbled to her feet and stabbed it with her blade, disintegrating the monster. The satyr grabbed her hand and pulled Rosella away.

The satyr healed her with a bit of ambrosia and nectar. As soon as Rosella was well enough to travel, they made their way toward Camp Half-Blood, the satyr explained the whole demigod deal, about the monsters, why they attacked, and about the Greek deities. She was fourteen at the time, and everything was very difficult to take in, but she did believe it, nonetheless. They arrived at Camp with no further difficulties.
