Life Before CHB*: Tesaa was born on May 13, 1999 in Baker City Oregon. 1 week after she was born Athena left her leaving her but one memory of her mum. A month later her father remarried Lilliana Eve Locke later Lilliana Eve Benningfield. Then about a year later they all moved to La Grande oregon about 20 miles away. There they got jobs at Eastren oregon University and Tessa had a baby sitter nearly every day but Sunday and half of Saturday. Her father and step mother often missed her birthday parties and were very upset about it, possibly more sad about it then Tessa was. As Tessa got older the one image of Athena faded. Tessa didn't know who Athena was or who the image was of she just knew they had the exact gray eyes. Tessa tried harder then almost every kid in her grade in class to get her straight A-. Her father wasnt too disapointed in this since he knew she was a halfblood and that she is Dylexic and has ADHD. One day Tessa ran away at age 15 since her father and stepmother were talking about moving to Britian and she just got two bestfriends named Kydee and Liz. You may think how would she get to camp halfblood then. Well first it was a week after her 15th birthday so she has a learner permit and a old truck so borrowed,really she stole it. So soon a cop pulle dher over for only having a learners permit so as soon as he left to get his phone she got out and ran. All this time she didnt know what she was looking for she just kept going east. Two weeks later, somewhere in Utah , she finds a girl about her age, that as soon as she seen her the girl said "You're a demigod". When the girl said this Tessa raised her butter knife then the girl said "don't worry im a friend but down the butter knife" then the girl revealed hoovees and horns. Tessa remembered reading about something like this in mytholigy. "Are you a fawn or a satyr" Tessa asked the girl. The girl grinned "Im a satyr my names Grace and I need to get you to camp" "alright" Tessa replied. Then a few months later she got to camp with her new friend Grace.
RP Example*: Tessa saw a arrow zip past her face. She looked at where the sun was. The arrow came from the west so the enemies flag was west. Tessa shinned a light that reflected off her knife into a tree so the Apollo scout knew she got the message. She worked on erasing her foot prints then moved west. Tessa saw the flag she took out her notbook about 50 yards away so 150 feet. She sent a light over to her base using her dagger she did it 25 times then twirled her dagger twice. She then covered up her foot prints and saw who was guarding the flag. It looks like some children of Hermes are using flying shoes theres 2 children of Khione and 5 Aphrodite campers. About 10 in all but Hepatitus was witth them so there would likely be traps. Tessa took her long bow and aimed for the Hermes cabins feet it wouldnt kill them just land them. She shot and hit him which he then landed in a trap so he was trapped in a hole. Tessa then ran back to her base she had done what they asked.
Any notes about your characters: Tessa's father did know that Athena is her mother
