Age:
Fourteen

Female

Ouranos, the Greek Protegenos of the sky.

Mortal Parent:
Sophia Smith

Physical Appearance:
Skylar has pale blonde hair that tumbles to her elbows when it is let loose. It is usually pulled back in a messy bun tied with ribbons. Her round eyes are a clear blue, the color of the sky. Her face, shaped like an inverted triangle, houses a pointed chin and thin eyebrows. Her hourglass figure is hidden under her loose clothes — sweatshirts, jeans, the occasional dress — and so is her slender build. She is four inches above five feet, with pale skin. A blue spiral is inked on the back of her neck, usually hidden by her hair.

Personality:
Skylar is a fiercely loyal girl. She will do anything for her closest friends. The easiest way to provoke her is to harm the people she loves. She doesn’t often judge people by their appearance; she will always try to dig out their real personality if she cares about them. She is determined and never gives up. In some ways, this can be a problem, because she pushes the limits of people as if they’re not there. She doesn’t trust others easily and refuses to listen if the topic has no interest or relation to her. She is often overprotective.

Powers:
Skylar can manipulate or control air. For example, she can create a miniature tornado or speed up the wind. She can do this twenty times a day, depending on her energy level. The limit of how long she can do it is thirty minutes. She has to wait twenty minutes in between each use. If it is overused, she will get knocked out.

Talents:
Skylar is good at controlling her powers. She can run very fast and has a good aim.

Pets:
Skylar has a small hellhound called Casey. It is a female the size and weight of a Yorkshire Terrier.

Weapons:
Skylar has a large CB sword that has “Θάνατος Με Ουρανός” etched on the blade. It means “Death By Ouranos” and is pronounced “Thánatos Me Ouranós” in English.

Year-Round Or Summer:
Year-Round.

History:
Skylar Smith was born in San Francisco, California. She grew up with her rich mother, Sophia Smith, in a house near the Golden Gate bridge. She was always wondering who her dad was, but didn’t ask since it made her mother sad. When Skylar started to go to school, she had more trouble at writing than any of the kids in her class. She also had behaviour problems and was expelled a lot. However, she was spoiled from the moment she was born. If she screamed for it, she got it.
When Skylar was seven, Sophia married a man named Ace. Ace and Skylar never got along, as Ace disapproved of her spoilt behavior. Sophia and Ace split up when Skylar was ten, the same day that she was attacked by her first monster, a Cyclopes that tried to maim and eat her. Skylar ran home screaming about men with one eye. Of course, nobody believed her except her mother, who wouldn’t explain. Skylar stomped outside to cool off and was found by a satyr sulking on a park bench. She was told about herself and was taken home to explain. Sophia grudgingly agreed to have her daughter go to Camp Half-Blood. She has been there for four years.

Roleplaying Example:
“Get back here, you wimp!” Skylar shouted. Her blonde hair was a mess; it had been pulled out of its bun and was all over her face. Her blue eyes flashed with rage as she raced after the demigod waving her Camp necklace in the air teasingly. It was her most prized position, that gold chain. “Give it back!” The demigod stuck out his tongue and ran further away. Well, if he wanted to mess with a demititan, he would get it. She lifted herself into the air and sped up, knocking the open-mouthed demigod down. She snatched up the fallen necklace and dropped it over her head, feeling woozy. “Ugh...” she mumbled, stumbling back to Camp.

Notes:
Skylar is diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia.
