Yes. You read that right. Greece has fallen...or at least the camp that has catered to Greek demigods for over three millennia has fallen. Camp Half-Blood had a traitor in their midst. A traitor with powerful allies who quickly burned the camp to the ground. Some were lost, some killed, and the rest who remained began the long trek across the country to the only place where they might be safe: Camp Jupiter.
Chiron banded what campers they had left, told them of the other camp and sent word to Camp Jupiter pleading for shelter. Chaos now threatens the camp daily with the arrival of new Greek campers to this foreign camp. This camp with strange customs and rules. While on the Roman end the Praetors are forced to hold up a balancing act of providing sanctuary while also trying to find the traitor before their home suffers the same fate as Camp Half-Blood.
New alliances are forged, new enemies are made, and these two worlds have to find some way to work together for the future of them all. Which side are you on? Which position will you take? It's time to jump in the fray because Greece has fallen.

Roses are red. Not true, there's a variety of colors that- Violets are blue. Again, no. Violets are violet didn't they teach- I would rather be stuck with anyone else but you. Alright, well that's at least something we can agree on.
Meet...well his name is really up to you. Age: anywhere from 25-28ish PB: Steven R. McQueen For:Nickie Hall my Apollo legacy of Mars. Greek. Thinking: endgame love but it's going to be a bumpy road. Godly parent: suuuper open on this one, just nothing near Ares or Apollo obvs.
Lemme lay this out, apologies if it doesn't make sense. She's very organized, introverted, and very independent. He's going to be almost the direct opposite of her. I'm thinking slightly chaotic, has a hard time sitting still, physical and loud guy. Likes to act first and think about consequences later. I can see them both being stubborn and snarky though.
SO her job is to basically record and research, etc the history of Camp Jupiter and he has lived in Camp Half-Blood for most of his entire life, he is probably a trainer or teacher or something, knows a little about Camp Half-Blood's history. So the both of them are asked to do a small interview where she basically verifies stuff about Camp Half-Blood that Camp Jupiter has on their records. Easy right? Except it becomes glaringly obvious that they don't get along. About halfway through their sit-down he gets bored and starts messing with things around the artifact room where they're doing the interview. One of the items (that she doesn't realize he's messing with) is an old Roman Armilla band. He slips it on and the whole thing continues until they basically get annoyed with one another and she tells him to leave. Cue him walking to the door and realizing that he physically cannot leave the room. She walks over and he's able to move just a foot outside before he cannot physically move further. That's when they realize that he's slipped on the Armilla which has a twin that she happened to be wearing from earlier in the day.
The Armilla bands are cursed and basically, once they are put on, the two people who wear them cannot be more than five feet away from one another. The only way to remove them has been lost and so they have to research and find the Venus kid or someone in their line who made them who can un-do the curse. The cure to unlock them is also true love's kiss (credit Hayana) which they won't obviously find out until much much later. Cue the hilarity. I'm thinking of a few rapid-fire scenarios between them. Like she has a date and he has to sit a seat or two down from them and he makes snarky comments on how it's going while she gives him death glares or something. He wants to go train but she wants to read and they pull and push one another in a war of willpower to see who wins out (cue her throwing the book at him) Just super fun and hilarious hijinks because why not??
I feel like the longer they are stuck together the more they realize that they don't...necessarily....completely....dislike the other lol There are lots to play with in her past and their personalities and of course the whole roman/greek thing so if this makes any sense at all and you'd like to claim it let me know! Super open to other ideas with the plotting but I thought this could be a fun little meet-cute if you will.
As Nickie got closer, Nadine confessed that she had thought that the group might have left without her and Nickie laughed lightly, shaking her head as the other girl elaborated further. The little group hadn't been together for a huge amount of time, but there certainly would never be anyone left behind. Whether that was a quest or something even more important…like clothes shopping or bar hopping, they succeeded or failed as one. "Never."
As she stood back up, another figure appeared and Nickie turned with a grin to face Tarissa. Nickie reached for the bag after Nadine, grabbing out a bagel, another nod of her head as she passed the bag of goodies back to Tarissa. "Thank you, and agreed. I need coffee. Should we grab something in New Rome or take our chances out in the mortal world?"
It had been forever since she had set foot outside of the barriers. Truthfully, not actual years, but it certainly felt that way. She had no desire to visit her favorite old hangouts or pretend that she was normal like the people who she would soon be passing on the streets. She had no desire to try and fit back into that life. It had no love for her and she had no love for it in return.
Taking a bite of the bagel, the delicious carbs settling the pang in her stomach, she listened quietly to Nadine speaking up again, mentioning Josh. A grin came to her lips as the other girl spoke about her dating endeavors. "Do tell." Before she could say more though, Tarissa asked where Christian was and her own face of confusion matched the others. He was normally quite punctual, but before a feeling of apprehension could settle over her, the missing member of their group appeared, seemingly out of nowhere, causing Nickie to jump, hand clutched over her heart. "Gods Christian, are you trying to save monsters the trouble of killing me?"
Nickie took another bite out of the bagel and swallowed down the beating of her heart as Nadine commented on the boy as well. He looked prepared to face all of Hades and more, bringing another soft smile to Nickie's lips as she regarded the group silently. As he chastised them for being woefully underprepared Nickie met the other two's eyes with a playful grin. "Anyone want to bet on how many weapons he has? Loser pays for coffee?"
Christian asked the other two girls what the plan was and Nickie resisted the urge to jump in and take control. The map burning a metaphorical hole in her pocket. Christian was right though, this quest wasn't about her. So, instead, she pressed her lips together, trying to hide the grin before eating the rest of the bagel, thoroughly enjoying how well this trip was getting off. That plan to not insert herself was holding up quite well, at least, until Nadine mentioned packing eye-liner. Nickie's eyes met Christians, urging to interject with another suppressed grin.
Nickie zipped up her backpack after going over her checklist not just once, but twice. Sort of like Santa Clause, if Santa had anxiety. She slipped the pack over her shoulders, tightening the straps so that it sat squarely on her frame. She slid her pugio into her strap at her ankle before rolling her pant leg down over it, another smaller pugio concealed against her hip and covered by her jacket. Her Spatha was secured onto her pack, and though it would take time to get it out, she didn't trust the weapon laying against her body as they traveled.
Thinking of travel, she touched the outside of her pocket where the map resided. One of five copies. One for each of her traveling companions and two for herself, one residing in her pocket and the other safely tucked in the pack. The only thing left was a compass that she pocketed into the other side of her pants.
Gods she hated using a compass. The last time had been during training when she had first joined the legion. She had gotten by, but not without a struggle. Digital maps and coordinates were superior for a reason. Unfortunately for the group, monsters were drawn to the signal and they couldn't take the risk. She checked in with her co-Centurion before heading out of the door of her barracks.
The morning was chilly and she found the nerves easing away the closer she got to the tunnel entrance, or rather, exit. She had been jittery as she had packed and gotten ready, but as her steps carried her, they all but vanished. There was a job to do. A task to be done and she would do it. Period. There wasn't any room for nerves. They were cast off the moment her mind began ticking down her mental task list. She glanced at her watch, knowing full well that she was early. She was always early.
As she came towards the opening, a figure caught her attention immediately and Nickie smiled, holding one hand up in a greeting. "Hey. You're early this morning." She closed the distance at an easy pace, noting that they were the first two there. Setting the pack down after making it to Nadine, Nickie opened the outside compartment and pulled out one of the copies of the map, offering it to the other girl. "Want a map?"
[CLOSE CIRCLE] There are very few who she lets into her inner circle. Sure, she has acquaintances and people who she can refer to as friends, but only a handful are in her inner circle. Those are the only people who she lets in. Who she lets see the actual side of herself, no guards up at all. She is fiercely [LOYAL] to them and would do anything to see them happy and safe. Do not, under any circumstances, mess with her inner circle unless you want a fight that will not end. [break][break] [INTROVERT] She would rather die than make small talk. She's perfectly fine being by herself and though she isn't "unfriendly" she's not one to spark conversation and make friends with everyone she sees. If you make her talk to people in a group setting, something awkward is going to happen or come out of her mouth, that's just how it is. [break][break] [MOTHERLY] She's always been the one who has had to take care of everyone, even from a young age. That trait has only gotten stronger as she's gotten older. She tries not to be overbearing but it's second-nature for her to solve everyone's problems, take care of their needs and make sure they're all looked after and safe. Need a hair tie? She has one. Cut your finger? Here's a band-aid. Boy Trouble? Here's some advice. Someone made fun of you? She's handling it. [break][break] [CONTROL-ISSUES] Whew boy. She likes to think of herself as meticulously organized with a penchant for planning, but that's just scratching the surface. In reality, she has been the one and only thing in her life that she has had control over, so she tends to meticulously need to keep that control in check, in almost every aspect of her life. Spontaneity is a concept that she has never understood and if you invite her to do something without a plan, it's liable to not go well. This also leads her to be fiercely [INDEPENDENT] and she doesn't need anyone else's support in doing something that she knows is right or that she wants or needs to do. You can stay or you can go, it won't affect her either way. She's perfectly fine walking the metaphorical path by herself. [break][break] [SARCASTIC] Her brand of humor isn't for the faint of heart. She can be quite sarcastic and though she genuinely doesn't try to hurt feelings, her humor can come off that way sometimes. [break][break] [EMPATHETIC] She tends to be able to see everyone's side of things, which makes her quite empathetic to others. She has a face that people, for some ungodly reason, want to share personal things with and she finds herself sometimes burdened by their plights. Going right back to the need to fix everyone's problems. She tends to have a bleeding heart and if she can help someone, she will. Though she would never be described as naïve or trusting.

[attr="class","hopelovetitle"]BIOGRAPHY
[attr="class","hopelovetop"] Biological Mother - Tina Hall[break] Biological Father - Apollo[break] Adoptive Father - Garrett James[break] Violet Hall - Maternal Grandmother - Child of Mars[break] [break][break]
Nickie was born to Tina Hall, a very normal mortal who was as bold, outgoing, and beautiful as they came. She never met a stranger. She had no direction or plan set for her life and was perfectly happy with that. She had a gypsy soul that loved to travel and would follow her every whim or urge, consequences be damed. It was during one of those travels where she met a handsome stranger who swept her off of her feet. A one-night stand turned into a nine-month consequence and thus, Nickie was born before the woman had turned twenty. Tina had no interest in raising a child on her own so she married the first man who caught her eye. Tina met and married Garrett before the child turned one. The pair moving from California where her family was from and settling down on the other side of the country in Virginia. [break] [break] The couple were like fire and gasoline, the perfect picture of toxicity. Two years after they married, Tina gave birth to a son. The couple tried making it work for the sake of their children but things only got worse when Tina gave birth to another child, a daughter this time. The arguments were often violent and there was no such thing as peace in their home. Safety was very much a foreign concept. Before Nickie turned eight she had already assumed the role of being a mother to her two siblings. Tina would often vanish for weeks at a time and come home smelling of smoke and booze. Sometimes taking all three children along and dropping them off at stranger's homes while she partied for days on end. Those actions made Garrett only resent her more and he would often take out his frustrations on the children. Nickie showed no signs of her powers, at least none that her parents noticed, though anyone with a sharp eye would have picked up on the instinctive way she knew how to heal and comfort her siblings. [break] [break] One nasty night manifested in police taking custody of the children and that was when the pair agreed upon a divorce. Tina vanished once more, abandoning the children without a care as did Garrett, leaving the children in the care of their grandmother from California. The same woman who her parents had kept her away from her entire life. Their life took a different direction after that, with a loving guardian watching after them. When Nickie turned 11 her powers manifested in the form of healing a cut on the arm of one of her siblings. She had been shocked, the urge coming out of the blue, but her grandmother, a child of Mars had instantly known what to do. [break] [break] She arrived at the wolf house at 11 where she did her best to do what was asked of her and fit into her new life. She adapted well, and after a few short months she was permitted to join Camp Jupiter. She was placed in the third cohort, having only one recommendation letter from her grandmother as well as being a few years behind her fellow legionnaires in the skills department. She was claimed upon arrival, and soon found that she not only was skilled in the art of healing, but she had also retained some of her grandmother's abilities with hand-to-hand combat. She trained hard, enjoying and relishing every aspect of physical training. Though she was nowhere near as skilled as the children of Mars, she was every bit as excited as they were to learn new moves and show off what she could do. Becoming close friends with a child of Mars named Christian right off the bat. [break] [break] At seventeen she became a centurion of the Third Cohort and was sent out on a quest with Christian, as well as two other centurions. The four became inseparably close and to this day still remain her most trusted friends. At twenty-one, her ten years was done and she left Camp Jupiter to start her life in New Rome. Her grandmother could not take her siblings to New Rome, so it had just been her on her own. Nickie didn't mind the solidarity and instead threw herself into her work and her passions. She studied for two years in New Rome's University before moving onto a position in the historical archive department. She spends her time there, researching and writing for her job. Spending most of her time buried deep amongst history while occasionally volunteering in New Rome's healing center when needed. [break]
[MAIN] Vitakinesis - [break] Her main power is the ability to heal most physical and tangible wounds with ease. Things along the line of closing wounds, setting broken bones, and stopping blood-flow come easily and naturally to her. If the wound is very small or minor, she can fix it without fatigue. The larger stuff wears her out quicker. She is trying to learn how to manipulate internal aspects such as nerve pain and heart-beats but she's not that great at it. Often she'll accidentally make a person nauseous or wind up with a terrible headache, but she is learning to do better with it. [break] [break] [MINOR] Telumkinesis - Battle Prowess[break] Her minor power manifests in hand-to-hand combat. She is not as talented as the children from war gods or goddesses, but she can hold her own against others. She is only gifted in that aspect. She's terrible with all other forms of weaponry. [break]
