History Before Camp
In 1989, CIA operative and field agent, Malcus Schulten, returns to the US from his Cold War operations in Belarus. Although he is suffering nausea from experiencing various near-death situations, Malcus is successful in providing the assassination of an infamous Soviet official. Malcus ends his international career to live on a pension and work as a community police sheriff, and then turns his focus to the affairs of the US federal government by joining the FBI in 1996. He goes under the command of Idina Akimov (Apate), a FBI field agent leader and former CIA field agent who acted as a double agent on the Russian KGB. Apparently Idina is another of Apate's alter egos. She admires his skill in deception, and Malcus eventually wins the heart of Idina. In the autumn of 1998, Idina iss pregnant to Malcus' demigod daughter, who was eventually born on December 8th that year.
But before Idina, or Apate, must go through the process of leave, Malcus falls by a lead bullet during an aborted operation against an American crime syndicate. Idina has no choice but to give the girl up to an orphanage in Boston. The girl is illegally abandoned by the doorstep of a Massachusetts Foster Care & Adoption foster home. The authorities use a DNA scan to find the girl's parents, discovering she is the daughter of the dead Malcus Schulten, the most likely choice due to his death and closest DNA resemblance. The girl's first name is unknown, so she is named Adeline by the guardians.
Little Adeline was the exact opposite of a perfect child. She was the practically greatest prankster and troublemaker at her foster home and school; she had so many school suspensions that winter break equaled her time in suspension. Adeline was once expelled from a whole school trimester in 4th grade by dumping wheat powder on all of the kids and the teacher in the classroom while she had prepared an umbrella (It's a long story), and apparently one child was allergic to wheat. Young Adeline eventually got into greater illegal trouble after she was discovered shoplifting at a local supermarket. The truth was that she had started shoplifting in that market months ago by hacking the security sound trigger. She was able to lie and get away from further expense, but she still ran away from her foster home at age 12, before the authorities could confirm the legality information of her actions and take it to court. She was deemed wanted in her hometown of Boston.
For a year Adeline ran through the streets of Boston and survived alone. She was a neighbor of the homeless in the ghettos, and lived in an abandoned tool shed. She used stolen money to buy food, or shoplift food directly. She lived as a petty theft, shoplifter, trickster, and expert liar, not only by heritage but common experience. She used lying as a beggin tactic. For those three years she unintentionally used her powers in action, though she could never notice. When people chased her (to get their stuff back), she could bring the chase to the alleyways, and would inadvertently create illusions to mislead her opponents. She could also open up pickpocketing operations by controlling people's objects, such as causing drink spills or untied shoelaces. Around the age of ten, Adeline befriended a stray American shorthair cat, whom she named Dust. Dust mostly wanders off, but may accompany Adeline at some points.
At age 13, Adeline gained the attention of a minor street crime gang led by a young man named Devin, who is an expert trickster. Devin is actually a rogue satyr, shunned by his kin and forced to live on the streets. The rest of the gang are rogue spirits, creatures, and nymphs, most drawn together for similar reasons. They often steal from mortals to survive. (However, they do not permit grand theft because they are not supposed to gather much mortal attention)
Devin recognizes the girl's godly side and potential and a similarity to a goddess he looked up to, Apate the trickster. Devin takes Adeline in, believing he should protect the demigod from possible monsters, as her scent has increased during her growth, in exchange for things Adeline steals and helping them survive. Devin gives her a pocket knife with multiple tools, as well as three blades. One blade is regular steel, another is celestial bronze, and the third one, between the other two, can transform into a half steel, half celestial bronze dirk (short sword), if the master wishes it does. εξαπάτηση, or exapatisi, is engraved on the handle, which is Greek for Deception. Devin tutors her in academics as well as techniques in surviving the streets, including self-defense. He also teaches her about Greek mythology through storytelling.

Skills

Children of Apate have the innate ability to confuse, mislead or deceive others for a short time, the longer they try and keep up with the lies/deceptions, the more energy it drains.
Children of Apate have the minor ability to create illusions of attacks so realistic that they are most likely to catch an enemy off guard; however, if they miss they are left vulnerable to counter attack.
Children of Apate are able to command a weapon to go against it's master's will. However, they cannot command a weapon bigger than them. Also, the master of the weapon can resist the will of the weapon. Once the effect has wore off, the weapon is immune to further effects of it.
Defensive[]

Children of Apate are able to trick charging enemies to face the opposite directions and charge at those directions instead. The more enemies and the longer the distance, the more it drains the demigods. After the effects have wore off, enemies will be immune to further effects of it for the battle.

Supplementary[]
Children of Apate are able to make a fake copy of an object not bigger than them, but they must clearly imagine the object in their minds for it to completely imitate the original object. Also, if the original object possess magical properties or whatsoever, the imitation will not copy those properties.
Children of Apate can use their powers to lure someone into lying or coming into agreement with them when they truly don't want to without the person influenced even noticing. The bigger the lie, the more power drained. A person with a strong will can fight this, and most will remember being deceived shortly after.
Children of Apate are able to mimic sounds or the voice of a person or creature they already heard speaking or making noise. The quality of the mimicry depends on the focus and skill level of the user.
3 Months After Character is Made[]
Children of Apate can create illusions in order to twist other's perception of reality or make everyone around them see something that isn't really there. However, the illusion isn't physical and therefore is only a trick of sight. The bigger the change in perception, the more power drained. They can also delude single individuals in the same fashion.
6 Months After Character is Made[]
Children of Apate are able to make a copy of their body, that they are mentally connected to, but cannot interact with its physical environment. It can be used to spy on others, bring back intel, distract others, carry messages, etc. It drains the user moderately.
9 Months After Character is Made[]
Children of Apate are able to make a copy of their body, that they are mentally connected to. It is essentially a real copy of themselves, with all their powers to a weakened extent and can actually interact with their surroundings, however while the copy is active the user is entirely incapacitated. While the copies are active, the user is drained, so the longer the copy is active the more they are drained. Once the copy is gone, they must wait a substantially long time before making another copy.
Traits[]
Children of Apate tend to be treacherous, fond of treachery or amused by it.
Children of Apate are cunning, sly and uneasily fooled.
Children of Apate are very good liars and at making alibis.
Children of Apate are good at forging signatures and hacking systems.
Children of Apate have deceit "intuitions", meaning they may have a hunch if someone will try to deceive them. However, their predictions may not be accurate every time.
General & Misc Info

General Personality
Adeline is the direct opposite of the meaning of her name. Not exactly a socially active and time taking person, Adeline aims to finish first or get things over with. Luckily she can balance accuracy with speed. When it comes to friends, Adeline isn't the most talkative, however interesting topics can grab ahold of her. She doesn't take things very seriously, and joints of humor often pop up. Nonetheless, she's always focused on the most important objectives, especially when it comes to her favorite hobby, pranks. Adeline often hides feelings unrelated to her focuses unless they do become focuses. She does not care about her looks. Used to a rough life, Adeline continues act like she should only do what is necessary. However, she has learned to spend time in relax, and enjoy life through traditional pranks and humor. In addition, she tries to openly reestablish her crush on her friend Enoch. Adeline is very brave and adaptive, and she has rather great intelligence, but not in academics. On the downside, Adeline is easily offended, and would rather shoot back with wit than be a peacekeeper. However, she is not harmed by embarassment. But this trait along wth others makes up her best strengths: 0% distraction and never giving up. Her pranks can get seriously out-of-hand, getting her into alot of trouble. Adeline has great wit and is very clever. She is also equipped with her famous stare down that makes your gut twist and want to think you just got a bad fortune cookie. Half a decade of life on the streets and training from the demon of trickery has made her ruthless, tough, sly, smart, quick, and highly experienced in the art of thievery and deception. Her physicality are just as deceptive; she is more agile and strong than she looks. Subsequently, she has a case of ADHD. Moral is, don't mess with the wrong side of this girl.
