History: Deimos sat on his throne, spiteful of his brother. Phobos was the clear favorite of his father, and more well-known to mankind. Deimos knew he hadn’t had much to do with his children, and they were his direct connection to earth. He put two and two together to find the solution to all of his problems.
He watched the future version of camp half blood from a distance, studying each and every camper's wort fears. Watching them made him realize that he needed more campers to spread himself with. Zeus and Apollo cabins were packed tight while his was practically empty. How could he leave his mark if he had no messenger to do so?
Deimos roamed the earth, impregnating woman after woman. He peered into the minds of each unborn child, seeing what their fears would be. If the child had an irrational fear, Deimos would make sure that child was never born. Finally, he came across a boy who would have no fears- after all, who better to spread fear than one who cannot be affected by it?
Deimos waited patiently for his perfect child to be born. The moment he was born, Deimos swept into the room stealing the child from the arms of his mother. In his wake, he left a mother crying from the realization of her worst fear; her son had been taken from her. This was the first of many fears the boy would recreate.
Deimos implanted the child with the fears of his future campers. He rebuilt the child using pieces of deceased campers, fueling the child's need for constant contact with fear and creating his personal machine imbued with the power delivering personal fears so harshly that he would be only second to his father.
For a while, the nameless child performed as expected. He practices on fellow students at grade school, teachers, lunch ladies, and even compete strangers. People started to shun him- churches thought he was a reincarnation of the devil, made completely out of hell. He was shuffled around a lot and always forced to change names. The boy had no identity of his own- he was a nameless product of his father, manipulated by the god himself.
As he grew older, things took a turn for the worse. At age ten, the boy experienced his first Rupture. When Deimos had created him, he had overlooked the fact that the bits and pieces of him would struggle against each other one day. Fears of the campers he was made of had been raging inside of him, oppressed by his inability to fear. When a fear broke out from within him, the boy ceased to be himself any longer, and became someone else. He was accused of being Schizophrenic when he would Rupture in front of other people. What everyone failed to understand was that his personalities did not come from a mental point- they were physically in him.
With his first Rupture, the boy's arms became scarred with a brand from his father. It was a symbol of pure fear, one that appeared different to everyone who looked at it. It was a tattoo that seemed to swirl on his arm, forming shapes intended to bring people to their knees. All the boy saw the entire time was a regular patterned tattoo- a gift from his father.
Although he was created, the boy did have a mind of his own. He separated from his father, wandering like many demigods his age did. He came across another demigod named Jared. Jared was a son of Zeus, one who knew what it was like to lose control of his powers. He understood the boy, and learned to live with fear right next to him at all times. The boys traveled together around the country, avoiding monsters. Eventually, the nameless child became known as “Crash”, simply because of the way his entire body seemed to crash when he Ruptured.
One night, when Crash was twelve, he had an extremely bad Rupture. This one was not like the others, and it was targeted directly at Jared. One of his alter egos revealed itself as Diabolos, or Devil. Although Jared had gotten used to having his fears displayed in front of him, Diabolos branded Jared's mind with image after image of all of his worst fears. The last image he showed Jared was a picture of Jared sitting alone in a forest, slowly dying from an unknown cause. Jared worst fear was of losing his friends and being alone again. The image literally drove Jared crazy. Crash woke up from unconsciousness the next day to see his friend dead. Jared, a twelve year old boy, had stabbed himself to death from insanity. Crash stood there, fear suddenly creeping on him. His own fear developed in that moment, one Deimos had not foreseen. Crash had become afraid of himself.
Demios descended on his son, who he had been watching tirelessly. Crash asked his father why Jared had killed himself, and where the knife had come from. Deimos explained that he had placed the knife in Crash's pocket, and that Crash was the one who had handed it to Jared in his state of Rupture. Crash broke down into pieces- his current fear brought on an onslaught of Ruptures all at once. Deimos picked up his child, erasing memories that needn't be there. He hid the boy's only fear deep within his heart, giving the boy just one more piece to Rupture from. Deimos knew all along he should have never let the boy roam, and he now regretted his decision.
When the boy woke up, he knew very little of who he was. His father told him the name that he had kept from him for so long. Caelo finally had an identity. Deimos made him feel proud of his power, helping him get over his hidden fear. Soon, Caelo had learned to embrace his Ruptures, control them, and use them to his advantage. Caelo had become a sadistic, fear-loving child bent on crippling others with sheer terror, and his father had never been prouder,. He dropped the boy off at the entrance to Camp Half Blood, excited to see how his child would make a mark on the world for his father. The last words Deimos spoke to him were, “And remember, no matter what happens, father always knows best.”
Weapons: He has a collection of Knives and Swords that he uses. He also has a shield modeled after Leonidas' shield. It depicts a version of Deimos.
Notes[]
The deceased campers bit is a tad over the top. How would Deimos have access to even do that.BachLynn(Send an Owl!) 00:01, November 3, 2011 (UTC)
I thought he would, being a god and all. The only thing is, that really changed his storyline. It'd get rid of his Ruptures, which is the backbone of his story. I agree that it does sounds a little farfetched- I even thought that when i was writing it. Do you have any suggestions?
I am going to use the suggestion you gave me in chat. Essentially, the gods were very upset that Deimos was going around purposely impregnating women, trying to find his perfect child. A few of the gods made a plan and cursed the child. The curse makes is so that the fears of the other unborn and killed children haunt him. Even though he doesn't retain these fears, THESE trigger his Ruptures. Deimos, however, never tells his son the truth, keeping the boy in the dark and his plan nearly intact. Following your other plan, Bach, eventually, the ideals and lies that his father fed him will fade away. He will find out about his curse and his past, growing multiple personalities based loosely on what would've been the children that make him Rupture.

This claim has been approved as a child of Deimos. You now need to make a page for them and a word bubble, if you aren't sure how to do this you can see the guide here. Once you have done that you can add your character's name to the cabin list located on the cabin pages and start role playing with your new character. If you have any questions feel free to ask a member of the Admin team.
I could not restore the page, you created the page after I deleted it and now there is no way to go back to the original, sorry BachLynn(Send an Owl!) 14:34, November 3, 2011 (UTC)
