Basics
Full name: Theo Luis Zane
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Divine Parent: Aphrodite
Powers: Theo is able to speak French fluently, like most children of Aphrodite. He specializes in social powers: he is very persuasive in his speaking (charmspeak) as well as he can read what people are trying to say solely from their expressions (facial and vocal). Therefore, he is able to very easily tell whether someone is lying to him or not, as well as make a very convincing lie.
A very common power of Aphrodite's children are to be able to toy with emotions to a high degree (amokinesis). He can control his appearance too and in Theo's special case he can't get dirty. No matter how much he jumps into mud or rolls in dirt, he doesn't get dirty. He was born that way. He can't turn it on and off- sometimes a blessing, sometimes a curse. It doesn't affect his wounds, though. He can get cut and bleed, but the blood won't stick to his skin.
Personality
General personality:
Theo loves himself. He is egotistic, arrogant, self concerned, greedy, and all those negative adjectives that go with it. Most think that Theo became like this because of the fact that he can never get dirty- meaning he's always clean. Also being a son of Aphrodite, he is naturally an attractive person. So technically, Theo is perfect. Physically, at least. This went to Theo's head, making him the cocky demigod that he is.
Theo takes pride in his fighting ability. He is a very confident fighter, and never expects to lose. He goes up against any opponent, of any size and any level of power, and still expect to win. This has put the safety of his peers and himself in danger before. Theo also isn't the brightest of the bunch, and is not very educated in Greek mythology. He does not take strategy into consideration at all, and prefers to fight on instinct.
He's very selective with the people he talks to, and often looks down upon others he sees as 'inferior' to him. Theo hits on any girl that comes his way, and doesn't take no for an answer. He's absolutely convinced that any female in the world would give everything to date him, and can never understand why a girl would say no to him.
As for his sense of humor, he can be extremely boring. He rarely finds any jokes funny, and would rarely even crack one. He would rather just talk about fighting or himself, with the latter being the more commonly brought up of the two.
Theo is scared to death of moving vehicles. Whether it be a canoe, chariot, plane, car, etc., he will refuse to enter it (sometimes even get near it). He tries to hide it from other people, but if someone somehow forces him into one, there's no differentiating him from a newborn baby who's hungry at 3 in the morning. He would bawl his eyes out until the vehicle stopped.
He doesn't get along well with children of the big three. He hates how they are better and stronger than him for the most part, and completely envies them. He doesn't like nor gets along with children of minor gods either, as he considers them inferior and not worthy of being compared to his mother or himself.

History:
Theo was raised in Canada, in a very expensive condo in downtown Toronto. His father was a top lawyer in one of the city's best law firms. He was spoiled to the brim- he never had to work for anything, and always got whatever he wanted. His father was kind, but Theo rarely saw him. He spent most of his time at work, and had hired a caretaker over Theo so someone would spend time with him. She had never told him her name, but told him to call her " Mrs. A". She was a very self-confident woman (egotistic, even) who always seemed to dismiss the opinions of others and puts her's above the rest. Mrs. A had homeschooled Theo as well, so he didn't really have any friends. Most of his childhood had been spent with Mrs. A.
When Theo had turned 12, she started teaching him some things aside from schoolwork. Mrs. A taught him many things about Greek mythology and the gods and goddesses. She also told him that he was very handsome, and she taught him how to portray himself outside and many social skills, from how to tell if someone's lying to how to convince someone into doing what he wanted. She explained that the fact that he could never get dirty was a gift, and wasn't a completely strange thing for a boy like him. She told him that he was special, and soon enough he would understand why.
During the year that Theo turned 14, Mrs. A had slowly stopped coming. His father told him that she had moved away, and that she wouldn't be able to see him again. Theo was obviously sad, but his father reassured him by telling him that there was that Mrs. A wanted him to go to, and Theo would be able to come back and visit him whenever he wanted. He also said that the camp would have people with similar talents to his own, and he would understand all the things Mrs. A told and taught him there.
Once he had arrived at the camp (after a very long drive filled with lots of screams and tears), he started to understand everything. About the gods, and who he was. He wasn't stunned for long, as he realized that it was just another reason that he was better than everyone else. Which was a feeling that he loved a lot. He was claimed a night or so after he arrived, and took straight to bragging about how much greater his mother was than everybody else's parents.
