Name: Serafina de Klein

Age: 12

Appearance: Short, thick black hair, inquisitive blue eyes. Petite figure, 4'8"

Serafina de Klein is a daughter of Harmonia. Her Father, Jakob de Klein lived his youth in Holland, and moved to New York to complete further education. Jakob was an educated individual, who had high respect for women, and had good standards and morals. His goal in life was to become a successful Zoologist, but that all changed. While he was studying, two goddesses took a fancy to him. Eris, the goddess of dsiscord, and Harmonia, the goddes of concord. To stop dispute, they asked the goddess of marriage, Hera to choose who would get with him. Hera chose Harmonia over Eris, due to her still being vengeful about the Trojan war and the Judgement of Paris. Eris, who was completley unhappy about this decision smiled and the plotted a plan.

Harmonia went to Jakob and the two connected like two peas in a pod. They had a secet affair, and Serafina was conceived. Everything was perfect for Jakob, except the fact that Eris was making sure that all of Jakob's concentration was on Harmonia, and not his studies. When it was time for him to sit his final examinations, he failed miserably. No one would employ young Jakob despite his real talents, and finally, Jakob de Klein was resorting to drug abuse and alcohol. All of these things were happening because Eris was jealous of Harmonia, and so she had cursed Jakob.

When Serafina was born, Jakob's spirits were lifted, momentarily. Whenever he was around the child or Harmonia herself, he would be calm and peaceful. However, on the girls first birthday, Harmonia was forced back into Olympus by Eris, as she was accused of "neglecting her duties as a Goddess". Jakob was heartbroken and now hit rock-bottom. He became worse, and for the next few years of Serafina's life, he sent her to a boarding school, where she was treated like an idiot, as she had learnt to develop "selective mutism" from seeing and hearing her father's rages at such a young age. When she was ten, she was taken home, as she was expelled from the school for "Attacking a man who supposedly had one eye". Jakob would beat her until she bled, for she was (and still is) a petite girl. He would have almost killed her, if she had not used her (undeveloped) powers to calm him down.

One night, in his rages and a neighbour had called the police. He was about to deliver the final blow to her, when the police broke the door down and arrested him promptly. The took Serafina and sent he to an Orphanage, where a satyr, (In disguise as a man interested in adopting a child), sniffed her out and brought her to camp.

Personality: Serafina is shy and timid, with slective mutism, and dyslexia. She does not have ADHD, and in fact, she could sit in the same spot for hours on end, in a boltd position. She hardly speaks, and only does if neccessary.

Names: Octavio and Sofia Aquilar

Age: Octavio - 17 Sofia - 18 when she died

Godparent: Harmonia

Equipment: Octavio wields the sword Verdad (Truth). When Morgawr bound Sofia's soul to the blade, its magic corrupted the steel, causing it to be able to discharge Darkness. However, once the sword was reforged and both cursed and, indirectly, blessed by Harmonia, it gained some additional abilities. It will glow when it is in darkness, and the light it emits can be seen even thorugh the darkest darkness. Also, it can destroy illusions with ease, either by a flash of light or physically destroying it. Finally, when the blade is touching bare skin, it forces those touched to speak only the truth.

Personality: Octavio is melancholic most of the time, always serious and to the point. He sees no time for fun, and is usually thinking of how to survive, or how better to defend camp, attack BC, etc. However; he is also very forgiving, and is always able to give people a second chance.

Sofia, on the other hand, is sage-like. Having dealt with the evil of Morgawr for so long, she is familiar with most forms of dangerous and evil magic and legends. However; she also knows how to have fun, well, at least in her sense. As a ghost, she helps advise Octavio, as well as defend camp.

History: A long time ago, during the American Civil War, when both demigods and mortals fought one of the bloodiest wars in history, there were two demigods, one Roman and one Greek, who abhored the war that was going on. They were children on Concordia and Harmonia respectively, and though they tried thier best to stop the war at thier respective camps, they were unsuccessful. Angered by thier refusal to accept peace, they left, and met each other in thier travels. Having the same ideas for a peaceful existence, they decided to search for a home where they could be safe from the war. For the length of the war they travelled around the US, trying to find a home. Along the way they found outcasts much like them, Roman demigods who had been rejected from Lupa's pack or hadn't found Wolf House at all, or Greek demigods whose satyr guides had failed them or died. Criss-crossing the states, never staying in one place too long due to monsters or warring demigods. Eventually, they reached Lake Michigan, the last place they hadn't travelled to. The two children of Harmonia and Concordia, who had become leaders of the group of outcasts, prayed to the gods for a place where they could live in peace and safety from the war. Thier mother heard them, and raised an island in the middle of Lake Michigan, connected to the mainland only by a small strip of land that was invisible to all but those who wished peace to the island. Full with joy and gratitude, they named their island and home Harmonia, both in honor of thier mother and for the harmony between the Roman and Greek outcasts. They were led by the two children of Harmonia and Concordia, so that the power would be equal for the Greek and Roman demigods. Eventually, Harmonia became the home of demigod outcasts who had no home, always led by the Roman and Greek sons of Harmonia.

However; even though the outcasts were safe from the war, and then later from being alone, they still had to fight off attacks from monsters and other nightmares of myth. Thier greatest and most persistant enemy however; was the Morgawr. It was the Python Apollo slew reborn, only instead of a serpent's body, it was given a scaly human body, uncanny intellegence, and control over magic, by Gaea. She knew that a union of Roman and Greek demigods might defeat her one day, so she sent the Morgawr to destroy them. He was extremely powerful, not only having great strength, but with the help of a crystal Gaea fashioned for him, had control of destructive magic, and yet, he could not conquer the demigods' home. For years he attacked the island with little success, plan after plan failing. Unfortunantly, one of the outcasts, a demigod son of Mars, betrayed the camp, and led the Morgawr and his army of monsters to the isle of Harmonia, and a massive battle ensued for the survival of the demigods and their home. Morgawr himself unleashed so much magic in his attempt to eradicate the demigods, he slayed the son of Concordia and shattered the very bedrock of the island, and slowly it started to sink. The remaining son of Harmonia begged his mother to help them. And she answered his prayers.

She transported the island to the coast of Galicia, a region in Spain. At first, the demigods did not know where they were, and even after they figured out where they were, they started to doubt how they could survive in a place none of them had been before. However, the remaining son of Harmonia reassured the demigods, and soon, the island was once again active and happy. They renamed the island Armonía, in rememberance of their old home. However; never again did a son of Concordia live at the camp, not even step a foot in it. It was as if her children could never find the place again.

Unfortunantly; the camp was not the only thing that relocated to Spain. Morgawr also was transported there. However; he hid from the demigods. He was waiting for the perfect plan to destroy the demigods once and for all.

This is where Sofia and Octavio come into the story. Two children of Harmonia, they lived in the nearby town of La Coruña, unaware of thier heritage. For years they grew up generally oblivious to their real family and Armonía, though thier father wasn't. Eventually, when Sofia came to the age of 10, and Octavio 9, their father decided to take them to camp, where they would be safe from monsters who constantly hunted them. Morgawr found out about the father's plan, and a devious plan formed in his mind.

As the trio travelled to Armonía, many draecnae attacked the trio. Their father died saving them from the draecnae's ambush, living long enough to pass his sword to Sofia, so that she could protect herself and Octavio. For hours they dodged and avoided the draecnae long enough to reach the little strip of land that connected Armonía to the mainland, where they were surrounded. Octavio was stabbed in the chest, and presumed dead, and Sofia was captured. Octavio was saved by campers, who were able to save him from his wounds. Thinking his sister was dead, he trained furiously in hand-to-hand combat, so that even without a weapon he would be able to protect his friends, though he always blamed himself for his sister's "death".

However; Sofia had not died. After being captured by thye draecnae, she was going to be slayed once the draecnae had found a place for shelter. The Morgawr found them,and saved Sofia from the draecnae. Once she was in his clutches, he told her a huge lie of how the campers of Armonía had refused to help her little brother, and he had died because of their choice. This sparked a deep anger and rage in Sofia, and she willing became Morgawr's servant. She recieved a crystal like the Morgawr's that let her control magic, and that, combined with her natural powers, made her extremely powerful, as she was able to stop people from attacking before slaying them with her own destructive magic. For years Sofia spread chaos and evil, and attacked Armonía whenever she could. Eventually she became known as La Bruja del Caos, The Witch of Chaos. WIP

Name: Arianne Chevalier

Mortal Parent: Claude Chevalier

Age: 14

Weapons: Bow and Arrows

Personality: Arianne is a very gentle girl, caring and would do almost anything to protect those who are close to her. She loves dancing and reading. She's smart and is one of the very few kids her age that actually like school - that is, when she's able to go.

Appearance: Arianne has curly blonde hair that comes to her chin. Her eyes change from light gray, to deep shades of turquoise. She has a round, button nose and thin pink lips. She's lithe and agile, but still a little pudgy, like most girls her age. She wears little make-up - usually some lipgloss and a touch of blush.

History: Arianne's father, Claude, was born and raised in Southern Quebec. When he was 20, he joined the military as a Peacekeeper. After 2 years of service in Iraq, he became an activist and travelled to 3rd World countries to help with poverty and medicine. Because of this, he attracted the attention of Harmonia. She approached him one evening, and adressed herself as the goddess of harmony and peace, hoping to spike his interest. As much as he found her beautiful and compelling, he denied her. Harmonia, a bit enraged that she was denied, decided to keep trying. She devised a plan and put it to action: she came to him as a fellow activist when he was in Thailand and soon began a relationship. When Harmonia became pregnant, she knew she had to give herself up, but couldn't break Claude's heart. After Arianne was born, she decided to tell him, and so she did. Claude was angry and confused, but knew that he now had Arianne to care for. After Harmonia left and informed Claude about Camp and the monsters, Claude moved to New Orleans, Louisiana. He became a World Studies teacher and raised Arianne to be the best student she could be, so she would have a better future if anything happened. Claude hid nothing from his daughter, telling her about Harmonia, Camp and the gods. She trained in archery to be ready for any monsters. When Arianne was 10, she was attacked by her first mosnter, but defeated them successfully.
