CBERS AT CAMP
CBERS AT CAMP HALF-BLOOD
Hello!
I just finished reading through Indigo's old Zombie Apocalypse, and I decided I wanted to write another single-writer story. Therefore, I present to you. . . us! At Camp Half-Blood.
A few rules before you skirt to the bottom of this post to sign up:
1. No AEs or CAPTCHAs, please. It's much more difficult to have them add to a plot, and their already-gifted abilities would be a hinderance rather than a help.
2. You may write journal entries, but please don't make any moves further on in the plot.
3. Once I start writing, I won't accept any more people. I'm going to draw the line at about eight, not including myself.
And some notes:
1. Please don't get cross if I portray you incorrectly. I'll do the best I can, but I can't guarantee you will be exactly your true self.
2. It is possible some of you may die, but not many.
3. I'm going to use a system similar to Brooke's:
MAIN CHARACTERS: Exactly what they sound like.
SECONDARIES: You will show up often, but are more likely to die and aren't going to be focused on as much.
TERTIARY: You will most likely show up later in the story, and perform a small but important deed. You are the most likely to die, but you might also join the quest.
4. No, we're not going to realize "Hey! You're from the CB!"
5. Yes, you can be Roman, as this is post-Percy.
Okay! Here's the sheet and some explinations:

Okay!
Anyone who posted after Bluebird, I'm sorry, you can't join. There are a lot of kids in this already and more would be going over the top.
By the way, everyone asked to be either an MC or a Secondary, so I'll try to get as many of you in those spots as possible, but I will admit that if I don't know you as well, you may be in a more minor position.

(Sorry, guys! But because there aren't many tertiaries you may show up more often than you think.)
I'll try to get the first post up by tonight. If not, it'll be up sometime next week (I'm going camping for the 4th of July, so I won't be around.)
(July 1, 2016 - 10:25 am)
Yaay! I'm an MC! Thanks so much!
(July 1, 2016 - 1:46 pm)
That's fine with me! Thank you for letting me in!

CBER NAME: Brookeira
AGE: 13
GENDER: F
CBER APPEARANCE: Make it realistic and highly detailed:
White-blonde hair, sea green eyes, pale skin. Wears sailor-esque clothes, like a shirt with blue stripes and cutoff jeans. Wears a red beanie in the winter and a red bandanna around her neck in the summer.
PERSONALITY: Moderately detailed, so I have something to work off of: Incredibly smart, a massive nerd. A lover of the water, sea, and cold. Very interested in the concept of demigods.
ANY FIGHTING EXPERIENCE: Wields a sword and trident well.
PREFERRED WEAPON: If you already know how to use one, great! If not, what do you imagine yourself using and/or what's the most awesome?: A TRIDENT
GODLY PARENT: Can be minor-- If you aren't sure, think about preferred powers.: Pleeeeaaase let it be Poseidon? I am BEGGING you...
HOBBIES: Trident fighting, reading, writing, swimming.
LOCATION: It can be a fake location, but preferably in the US (and not fantastical) Albuquerque, New Mexico (the irony is that New Mexico is the driest state in America and she is a child of Poseidon).
MC, SECONDARY, OR TERTIARY?: PLEASE can I be a MC?
OTHER: Loves horses.

Are you full? I'd like to come, but you already have a whole bunch of people.
CBer Name: Mirax T.
Age: 12
Gender: Female
CBer Appearence: Long straight black hair in two high pigtails. Bright green eyes and freckles on sharpish nose and mouth. Pale skin, and pinkish lips. Short, with a heart shaped face.
Personality: Kind, doesn't like conflict, but if she sees something really wrong will say something. Loud, a little bit crazy, with a sarcastic side that rarely shows.
Any Fighting Experience: She lived at an orphange that had several demigod kids in it, and they had to fight a monster or two before they got to camp. She works hard at sword fighting, and while she doesn't have a whole lot of natural talent, she's gotten pretty good.
Prefered Weapon: She uses an enchanted sword that gives her a slight speed boost. (Emphasis on slight)
Godly Parent: Hecate
MC, Secondary, or Tertiary: Secondary. I'd like to be main, but you probably have too many.
(July 1, 2016 - 11:12 am)
Could I reserve a spot please? This sounds awesome!
(July 1, 2016 - 12:25 pm)
Tell you what, guys. Anyone who posted after Bluebird, I'll do my best to add you as a tertiary. You'll probably have very small parts, however.
By the way, I'm going to be making a few of you Roman, because part of this takes place at Camp Jupiter.
PART I
September was finally there!
It had taken her ages. There was the whole training with Lupa, which took who-knows-how-long. Then there were the Telekhines who found her right before she got to San Francisco. And the (admittedly friendly) demigod at the aquarium who insisted on writing her a letter of recommendation. She had been positively screaming by the time he was done.
But at last she was there, at Camp Jupiter!
A daughter of Bellona who introduced herself as Indigo Keli showed September around the camp. It was a nice place, and September found herself warming up to it. Lares said hello, fauns begged for a bit of food, and the temples were absolutely, positively gorgeous.
Eventually, a girl with black hair in pigtails and a heart-shaped face came up to meet them. September looked her over more closely. She had green eyes and freckles, with a sharp nose and mouth, and looked about sixteen, maybe a bit younger. She was wearing a purple cloak, and the SPQR tattoo on her shoulder had seven dashes under the sign of a key and a torch, crossed. She introduced herself as Mirax, daughter of Trivia and one of the praetors of the legion.
"Tonight we'll be doing some war games," she told September. "For right now, you're on probatio-- that means you don't have a Cohort yet, you haven't been claimed, and you don't have your first stripe."
Half of that didn't make sense to September. Mirax seemed to sense her confusion. "We have five Cohorts: the First, Second, Third, Fourth, and Fifth. They're who you sleep with and are on your team for all the games we play. Your stripe makes you a full part of the legion. Once you have your first, you get a stripe added on for every year you're here." She indicated her tattoo.
"Okay," said September. "I think I get it."
There was a lot to learn, but most people seemed really friendly and ready to help out. Indigo herself was all right, although she seemed to be on the sarcastic side. September's biggest wish was to be claimed, but she wasn't sure when that would happen.
As it turned out, right before the war games.
Mirax had led September to the side, ready to ask if she had any letters of recommendation and who wanted to stand for her. But right after she'd called for attention, something lit up above September's head.
It was a sword and a torch, crossed. From the Third Cohort, September could see Indigo grinning.
Mirax stumbled with her words before announcing, "Please welcome September, daughter of Bellona."
Every cohort saluted.
"Do you have any letters of recommendation?" Mirax asked.
September handed her two: One from the man at the aquarium, who was a legacy (not a demigod! September had been wrong) of Neptune, and one from her father, a legacy of Mars.
"These seem to be in order," said Mirax. "September has two letters of recommendation, both from legacies. Who will stand for her?"
At first, there was silence. Then Indigo raised her hand.
September, daughter of Bellona, legacy of Mars, and legionnaire of the Third Cohort, made her way towards this newfound friend.
