Francis Loiselle grew up in Greenbow, Alabama, and pretty much lived there all his life, only leaving to go visit his parent's friends. He only really had one friend who was called James Darling, James was a demigod, however, and so during the summer Francis hardly saw him.
James decided to tell Francis that he was a demigod, but Francis wasn't convinced until one day a monster attacked, Francis as a slightly clear sighted mortal, sorta saw the monster for what it was and his mouth gaped as he saw it and as from that day he never doubted a word James said.
On his 21st Birthday Francis decided to go to Las Vagas. There he met Tyche when playing a game of poker in a casino. She kept beating him in every hand and after he left she caught up with him. Let's just say she orders a ton of drinks and they got drunk before having a one night stand in a hotel around the corner from the casino.
9 month later Francis heard a knock on the door and on the doorstep was a baby in a cradle with a note attached. The note explained everything and Francis instantly believed it all but got confused and called James and explained to him, asking him what to do. James told him to send him to camp as soon as he hit 12 as he'd be safe there, so Francis promised to do just that.
Anthony grew up with the advantage of knowing the full truth of what was to come and who his mother was, though at times he wasn't overly convinced it was true, but as his father was seemingly sane, and always good to him, he didn't see why he would lie about something like that.
Anthony met a boy named Brock in school, they became good friends. Brock loved spending time at Anthony's house because Anthony's father was less strict and more understanding. Though Anthony had no idea Brock was also a demigod until they turned 12 when they were faced with their first attack. Between Anthony knowing what was going on and the help of a satyr, they were able to kill the hellhound. This drew Anthony and Brock even closer together, and they began developing feelings for each other. Brock knew he could never convince his grandparents to let him go to a camp, especially one that wasn't a Christian camp, Anthony didn't want to be without Brock and at first declined to go himself, but then without Brock knowing, from the age of 13 to 16 Anthony would spend a week or two at a time, over holidays, to train with other demigods.
By the time the boys were almost 16, things were quite intense between them, though they'd been remaining in the closet about their relationship. This all changed one weekend when they thought Brock's grandparents would be gone the whole weekend, and were using that time to be, well imagine some rather not pg-13 things, this also included drinking. Unfortunately Brock's grandparents came home early, and his grandfather was so abhorred with what he walked in on, that he threatened the boys with a shot gun if they didn't leave his house. Brock was really too drunk to drive, and Anthony begged him to leave the car and just walk, but Brock was furious with everything and insisted on getting behind the wheel. They didn't make it far when Brock lost control of the car and into a tree, both were knocked unconscious and severely injured, but on the way to the hospital Anthony died. He remained as a ghost, but for the last few years stayed around Alabama, until recently when Brock finally decided to visit Anthony's grave.
A few days ago Tyche decided to turn Anthony into a Luck Spirit as she'd had enough of his constant whining about wanting to be alive again, plus she needed someone to do jobs for her.
