Vanadey is an activist, she fights for what she believes is right. She's incredibly headstrong, it takes a lot to make her change her mind and even then she'll argue her point to the end. She cares deeply about everything and as such feels everything much more than she should. Although she is much more likely to hide this than let anyone know the effect they've had on her. She's incredibly outspoken, too outspoken as most people tend to say which really is a terrible mix with her tendency to attract trouble. She likes her adventures and is more likely to be found exploring than sitting inside.
Like most families, the Rhodes family had their own traditions. Whilst some families were carpenters or doctors the Rhodes family were well known for producing some of the best lawyers in Washington DC. It had come to be expected that at least one member of each generation would follow in their parents footsteps so it shocked everyone when both of Hazel and William Rhodes' children decided their interests lay in the conservation movement.
Glenn and Kenna Rhodes spent all their time between whatever conservation project they were working on and their homes back in America. It was on one of their many projects in south Africa that Glenn met a woman by the name of Celene. It wasn't love at first sight or anything as dramatic as that more like right place right time right person. It wasn't unusual for Glenn to hook up with someone he'd met on a project, in fact she was just the latest in a long string of them so he'd forgotten all about her within weeks.
It was less two months later when tragedy struck and Glenn was killed in a freak accident. Kenna returned home in order to grieve with her family, sorting out what was to happen with his things and the other mundane things that no one should have to deal with when losing someone. The last thing she was thinking about was some fling he'd had months before his death. But only weeks later it became all they could think about.
When the baby turned up on the doorstep no one quite knew what to do. Kenna had discovered the letter stating that the baby was Glenn's but her parents had said it was impossible! Who would just abandon a child to a stranger like that! They'd taken the baby straight to the hospital where they'd demanded a paternity test be carried out. It had come back confirming that Glenn was in fact her father. And so the Rhodes family had taken the girl back with them.
It was agreed from the beginning that it wasn't a stable environment for a child to grow up in moving from place to place with Kenna at such a young age and as such it was decided that during the school year the girl, which they named Vanadey, would live with her grandparents however the couple was too old to deal with a child year round and so she would spend holidays with her aunt wherever she was.
It was a wonderous childhood for a kid, always off on some adventure or another in whatever country her aunt was in. By the time she was thirteen she'd been to so many countries they all seemed to blend together. One thing was certain though, she was turning out to be almost exactly like her father with a headstrong belief that she had to do whatever it took to protect the environment around them. What they could never have predicted however was how much like her mother she was too.
She was thirteen when the first attack occured, on a trip with her aunt she was attacked by a giant scorpion. It was then that Eric, one of the men on their project jumped between the two revealing himself to be what she could only describe as half goat. He'd yelled for Vanadey to run, terrified she'd done just that.
It had taken them two hours to find her hiding in a supplies shed behind all the tools. Eric had taken her back to Kenna where he began to explaine everything to the pair, about the fact she was a demigod (of who he didn't know), about monsters and finally about camp. It had been a lot for them to process and neither would have really believed him if there wasn't so much proof there.
It had been a tough phonecall home to tell her grandparents all they'd learned. And much like they had, the didn't believe them. It had taken much convincing to get them to believe even a little bit and once they did they were adament that there was no way their granddaughter was going to some strange camp! They decided that the best thing to do was to have her continuue travelling with her aunt homeschooling her on the way.
For the next three years that's exactly what they did, of course it was never going to work. For the most part when monsters attacked they did what any sane person would do, they ran. But when the Chimera attacked shortly after her sixteenth birthday brutally injuring both Kenna and Eric they all agreed that, despite her grandparents request, it was not going to be possible for her to continue living life as she was. The safest thing was for her to go to camp.
Offensive[]

- Children of Cybele can create a small tornado formed of leaves and grass blades. As the floral tornado spins faster, the leaves and grass blades become hard and strong enough to cut an someone. When the tornado's at it's fastest, the child can launch the blades of grass and the leaves at an opponent.
Defensive[]
- Children of Cybele have the ability to make an opponent feel as if their feet have become hardened and stuck to the ground, making their movements slower.If the user attacks while this power is in effect, it automatically wears off. So the power is purely defensive.
- Children of Cybele are able to create a earth wall, no larger than 2 to 3 times the size of the user, to temporarily block attacks.
Passive[]

- Children of Cybele heal faster when they touch a piece of nature such as a tree or a flower.
Supplementary[]
- Children of Cybele can telekinetically move elements of nature, such as rocks, plants and vines. The part of nature must be roughly two to four meters away from the child, cannot be 2 or 3 the size of the user. The bigger the element of nature and the more elements moved, the more energy is drained.
- Children of Cybele can create small boulders roughly two times the size of the child, this can be used for a diversion, hiding, or thrown as a weapon. However the longer the boulder is used, the more energy is drained.
- Children of Cybele have the innate ability to call upon all nearby wild animals for aid in battling, as well as take control over animals that others are controlling (such as a child of Zeus with birds or a child of Poseidon with horses etc.). The larger the group of animals, the more energy is drained.
- Children of Cybele can use dirt, mud, rock, stone, etc to teleport anywhere on Earth. Which could be known as Earth-Travel. The user merges with the earth beneath them and reforms elsewhere. The further they travel the more energy it drains.
3 Months After Character is Made[]
- Children of Cybele have the ability to create quicksand pits around a small area for a short time, the larger the quicksand pit is, the more energy is drained.
6 Months After Character is Made[]
- Children of Cybele can create a powerful quake affecting everything within 10 meters of them. The power of the quake can be scaled depending on how long the user wants it to last. A quake that just knocks the opponent over may last 20 seconds. A quake that throws them a few feet in the air may last 5. Finally, the whole quake may be focused into a single shock-wave with the power to bounce a car a half meter or so. This requires several moments of focus beforehand, lasts only a few seconds, and can only be used once every few hours. During the quake, the user is immobile. The user is quite drained after the earthquake subsides.
9 Months After Character is Made[]
- Children of Cybele have the ability to morph into a lion/lioness for a short time. They can turn into either a full lion or a humanoid cat form. In the human/lion form, they are twice as faster and stronger than before. Their senses are also quite sharper as well. They also tend to be more violent and volatile in this state. Once the transformation ends, the user is extremely drained. Using the hybrid form is more draining rather than the full lion form. They will not be able to move and could possibly faint.
