Personality
General personality:
Positive Traits
- Ambitious: having or showing a strong desire and determination to succeed. Remus strives to be the very best like no one ever was. (alright, that's Pokemon, but you get the idea) Before he left camp, he pushed himself in every activity and worked hard to outshine his peers. After he left camp, he still keeps up wish his daily exercises, pushing himself harder than before in order to hone his skills. Much like his father, he often hits on the Hunter's of Artemis and one of his main goals in life is to make a Hunter blush.
- Charismatic: exercising a compelling charm that inspires devotion in others. Everyone knows that Apollo is a smooth talker, and the same goes for Remus. His womanizing ways call for him to be a silvertongue and he's more proud of this ability than charming a woman with his looks. When Remus actually chooses to get along with people, it's often difficult for someone to dislike him.
Persuasive: good at persuading someone to do or believe something through reasoning or the use of temptation. Remus is widely known for getting what he wants when he wants it. He has been known to use his charisma in order to get people to see things his way as well as manipulate them to the best of his abilities. Due to him having a leadership trait he has learned that the only way to get what you want is to use others to do it. Over time he is more likely to gather a few followers who will hang on his every words.Neutral Traits
- Competitive: as good as or better than others of a comparable nature. Remus is an extremely competitive person, he wants nothing more than to be the very best at everything. One thing is for certain while some people might be okay with being second best, Remus, is not one of them. He will do everything in his power to make sure that he is the head hancho and the star of the camp, its just the way he ticks. Should another living soul attempt to challenge him, Remus, is likely to accept and make a slight game out of it while he proves his worth.
- Dominating: the act or process of bringing someone or something under one's control. One thing about Remus is that he likes to be the one in control at all points in time. Since he has quite the ego, Remus, seems to think himself in charge and has made his noticeable that he likes to have a form of "lackeys" under his control. He is more likely to go after the stronger individuals in order to create a leader ship that some people could only wish to have. Remus much like his father has a need to be the one in control of every situation that hes involved in.
Negative Traits
- Abrasive: showing little concern for the feelings of others; harsh. The thing about, Remus, is that he just does not seem to care about the emotions of others. While some might be a people pleasure, Remus, himself is cold and harsh when it comes to others. He is more likely to speak his mind or let other know what he thinks due to him just not caring. While he can be sweet and compassionate when he wants something, the matter of fact stands that he does not care if he hurts someones feelings because he feels that they should be stronger.
- Cautious: careful to avoid potential problems or dangers. Remus is an extremely cautious man its not that hes paranoid, it is simply that he watches his surroundings very carefully. When he sees potential danger and or problems arising in the general area is likely to attempt to avoid them unless he is needed to step in and then he`ll do it with extreme caution.
- Fiery: having a passionate, quick-tempered nature. Temper tantrums are not something that Remus is prone too, however he does have a short fused temper. While its not hard to get a rise out of the male he has been known to lose his cool quite a few times. When it comes to his life he is a fiery man, and will often show how much passion he feels for something. Most of the time however his temper is easier to flare than the passion for something else.

History:
Remus wasn't even a week old before he was dumped in an orphanage by his birth mother. To this day he's never met his mother or any siblings that he might have. Fortunately for him, Remus wasn't in the orphanage long before Abigail Stark, an infertile woman already pushing forty, happened upon him and fell in love. Her husband Warren allowed Abigail to adopt baby Remus and any chance at an ordinary life was taken away from him in that moment. By the time he could walk, Warren, the son of the Greek God Ares, began to train him in the ways of hunting mythical creatures and seeing through the mist.
Remus's most vivid memory is of when he was four years old, living in Surrey with his adoptive parents, and a manticore began to wreak havoc. Before this time, Warren's education and demonstration of what he was teaching Remus had only been verbal, but everything changed that day when Remus watched Warren, a man who was pushing fifty at the time and was crippled long ago in a hunting accident, slayed the manticore. From that day forward, Remus knew that he wanted to be exactly like his father figure and took his lessons serious.
Remus was ten years old when he went on his first real hunting trip with Warren and slayed his first monster, a satyr that had been stalking the family. Warren had previously injured the satyr when he had found it following Remus to primary school one day and thought that it would be a perfect opportunity for his adopted son to make his first kill. After a weekend long hunting excursion, Warren and Remus finally found the satyr hiding away in a cave and Remus put several crossbow bolts into it. Little did the British boy know that this satyr had been sent to recruit him for Camp Half-Blood in America and it would be two years before Warren sent him there.
After a close call with a minotaur when Remus was twelve, Warren finally decided that it was time he told his adopted son about Camp Half-Blood and gave him the option on whether to go. Reluctant at first, Remus finally decided it was something that he wanted to experience and set out with Warren for New York. Warren, having gone to Camp Half-Blood for several years in his youth, knew where to drop his son off without the aid of a satyr and Remus was surprisingly welcomed with open arms when he stumbled into camp. It wasn't long before Remus was claimed by the Greek God Apollo.
From the moment he arrived at Camp, Remus worked like a dedicated soldier and did his best to outshine the other camps in every way possible. He made many enemies and few friends, but he always worked his hardest to make Warren proud. It was difficult for him to make the adjustment that the campers lived in harmony with some of the monsters that he had been raised to hunt and kill, but he made due after being lectured repeatedly for beating up satyrs.
When Remus turned sixteen and put in four long years at camp, he received a notice from Abigail that Warren had passed away under mysterious circumstances. Unable to get back to the UK for his adopted father's funeral and suspecting foul play, Remus left camp and became a renegade, hunting down monsters and surviving on his own without the aid of anyone else. After three long years, Remus started to hear whispers and rumors of what was happening in camp. Still wandering around America by himself, Remus is on the fence whether to return to camp or not, but who knows what the future holds?
