Name: Prisha Kapoor
Age: 17
Gender: Female
Eyes: Athena cabin grey
Hair: Black and curly, usually up in a messy ponytail
Height: 5'3
Body Type: Rectangle, skinny, flat-chested
Skin Color: Amber brown
God Parent: Athena
Mortal Parent: Ayaan Kapoor
Country of Origin: India/USA
Pets: None
Talents: Spear fighting, knitting (especially when nervous; has a habit of claiming those she approves of by giving them a Prisha Scarf™), languages
Weapon: Prisha wears a bracelet on each wrist; one transforms into a shield if a bead is twisted, the other snapping out into a long spear if pulled off her wrist. Both are celestial bronze.
Personality: Prisha is quite a shy and reserved girl, always needing clearly expressed invitations to join a social group or conversation and easily embarrassed. Even once there, she's not the best of conversation partners; she's easily bored if she doesn't care about the topic, but if she does she's likely to be seen as condescending if you don't know as much as her or quickly understand. She's a very strategic thinker and a good fighter especially with her power, which makes her highly sought after for various war games. If you have a new idea about the strategy, she'll listen, but if she doesn't like it she can be dismissive and insensitive. Rules and guidelines annoy and restrict her, and she values honesty very highly. She's enthusiastic about what she likes but always second-guesses herself, particularly believing that none of her work is ever quite good enough, picking up on every flaw.
Flaws: Shy, insensitive, condescending, easily annoyed and sharply critical (including of herself).
Abilities: None
Powers: Warrior's Strength - Can make herself 25% stronger and faster than her normal abilities for up to 4 posts. Will need to rest immediately afterwards for roughly double the posts she used the power; it make her extremely tired although she does not feel the effects until she has shut the power off. If she uses it for longer than an hour it can become extremely dangerous, once knocking her out for several days after a major battle. She cannot simply use the power forever as it automically shuts off when she sleeps. While she uses the power her skin glows silver with Athena's power.
Life Before Camp: Prisha grew up in Mumbai, India, for the first ten years of her life. She had a relatively happy childhood when compared to most demigods, with a good father who remained in love with Athena and never remarried, and few monster problems. They then moved to the US for a new job of her father's, and also because Athena had briefly mentioned a safe place for demigods in the US, although he did not know how to contact CHB or send Prisha there. He'd never told her about her mother's true identity, only saying she was a very clever woman with eyes just like hers. She disliked the school there because she was picked on for her shyness, accent and dark skin, including by a teacher named Miss Wayland. Two years later, when she was twelve, she was about to show up to an unfair detention when she looked through the window in the door and saw Wayland in her true form, as a dracaena. Turning to run, she crashed straight into the local satyr, who had been there to spy on a suspected monster teacher. Wayland heard the commotion and they fled for their lives, the satyr overriding Prisha's questions and taking her to a safe place. From there they Iris-messaged Ayaan, who explained that her mother had been a goddess, but had never revealed which one. At camp, her eyes, cleverness and battle abilities meant she was generally accepted as an Athena kid, but she was only officially claimed three months later during a particularly stressful game of Capture the Flag where she managed to accidentally activate her power for the first time.
RP Example: Prisha ducked behind her shield, a sword jab just barely glancing off the rim, and mentally roared in frustration. If they'd only listened to her plans - but after all, she thought savagely as she lifted her spear and ran forward, she wasn't a real Athena camper. She was just that girl who was nearly an Athena camper, fought like an Athena camper, thought like an Athena camper, but wasn't one. She even had the right eyes for it! But no, she had to be claimed.
In her anger, she knew she was going to miss, which furthered her rage yet more. But to her surprise, the eyes of the boy in front of her widened with fear, and he staggered away from her. Confused, she paused to look down at herself, and saw that she was glowing all over, silvery and radiant. For once in her life, she felt... powerful. Lifting her head, she saw that above her was Athena's owl, and her only thought was Finally. Grinning, she charged into battle.
Any notes about your characters: Always smells of coffee, hair is barely tameable, often wears wool sweaters and scarves that she makes herself that are the most warm and comfortable things imagineable
