Damien Etoile

Name: Damien Etoile

Age: 16

God Parent: Dionysus

Mortal Family: Luna Etoile, single mother.

Years in Camp: Three boring years, in his opinion.

Brief History: He was eight when it occurred. He had been idly sitting in the garden, watching as his mother, a famed party-planner, shoved vines of grapes into a weaved basket. Every so often, she'd peek over her shoulder, rustling blonde hair to murmur a word or two in French. Almost absently, Damien would recall offering a brilliant smile, just as one of the grapes grew, almost to golf ball size. His mother would retell the story to him for years, though there were plenty of logical reasons. However, he wasn't going to complain. She was a brilliant story-teller, his favorite tales being those involving his father. Even at the age of thirteen, he would sit there, listening in awe. Until, of course, tragedy struck. It struck in the way of failure, on his part. Damien certainly wasn't the best behaved of children, but his mother didn't expect him to torment anyone. Despite his claims otherwise, the harmed child complained that the young Etoile had tried to strangle him with a strawberry vine. Because of this, his mother claimed to be sending him to a reformation camp, though it proved to be nothing of the sort. Upon arrival to Camp Half-Blood, and meeting his father for the first time (which came as a shock), Damien started on an uneventful path. The only thing of interest had been learning how to use reed pipes, which he had taken a shine to. He somehow managed to convince the satyrs to teach him how to play it, which was useful in growing strawberries and other plants.

Physical Appearance: His eyes are a very dark blue, which near on violet, like his father's. However, his hair does not match the curls Dionysus is known to have. The hue is more of a dark blonde, though could be considered brown. Also, despite the initial attempt to wear camp clothes, he is occasionally seen in suits, trying to be 'classy'.

Personality: At first, Damien seems to be an easy-going kid, just trying to push through life. Then, of course, he'll team up with the Hermes kids to pull a prank, or be seen constantly sipping Diet Coke with his father. There's a distinctly mischievous piece of him that is usually visible. But it does not mark him as a whole. He's very well mannered and convincing, but not in the magical way. He just makes it a point to have good arguments, as he wants his voice to be heard as a camper, especially since people forget about the Dionysus kids. Finally, he's relatively loyal to  his friends, but, having those typical parent issues, is more apt to do what he wants, and not what others deem to be right.

Fatal Flaw: Lack of interest, and commitment. Every so often, he'd try some  new activity, or try to start a camp club, but fail, as he didn't have the ambition. Because of this, he isn't likely to help anyone on a quest, or engage in much battle. Nor does this prompt him to stay at camp often, or even leave. Instead, Damien is known to slouch off to the forest, and stay there with the spirits. It doesn't seem like much of a fatal flaw, but he nearly lost his leg because of it. During a camp game, he decided he didn't want to do anything, and began to wander off. This only moved him into the middle of battle, cost his team their win, and certainly gathered hatred. Because of his lazy attitude, too, it's usually a lot to see who gets the Dionysus cabin.

Talents: He can control strawberries and grapes, to a certain extent.

Weapons: A reed pipe, which, although he isn't as talented as the satyrs are, can serve as something akin to a weapon. He has a short dagger, too, which is rarely used.

I already don't like this guy. Sorry gen could not resist this is a great person ken can become enemy's with.

It looks good to me, though I'm not sure how a pipe reed is a weapon.

Anyway, just wait for another staff member to approve this.

I guess I was thinking on the path of how the satyrs use theirs, and as the satyrs were associated with Dionysus... If it's too unbelievable, I could take it off?

Thanks, by the way.

I know I'm not staff, but do you mean using the pan pipes in the way that they help your character grow strawberry and grape vines faster, and things like that? Also, just as a cool idea, the pan pipes could always turn into another weapon :3

If this is the case I don't think so. The Satyrs are creatures that follow Pan god of the Wild. Though if you wish to edit it in. Say he found an interest with Satyrs and learned a it from one of them. Easy fix.

Isn't that a reed pipe?

Ok guys you all know the rules. Only the person who made the app and the staff are aloud to post on applications.

No more talking on these unless its yours. If you I've something to say abou it PM the staff or person who made it. No sorry's after this either leave at this, no further discussion.

Once the things I stated earlier are done I'll approve it.

I fixed it.

Looks good, approved! Welcome to CHB!
