<div class="floatleft">(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/a/a8/Avery1.jpg)</div><strong>Name:</strong>Avery (https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=207204.msg10203807#msg10203807)<br/><strong>Cabin:</strong>Unclaimed Resident of Hermes Cabin<br/><strong>Location:</strong><br/><strong>Date/Time:</strong>September 21, 8 am-ish<br/><strong>Tagging:</strong>Random NPC, and Open ;)<br/><strong>Notes:</strong>Camp Half-Blood Shirt with black jeans and boots<hr/><br/>Sunlight trickled through the recently cleaned window and spilled down upon the lightly snoring demi-god(ddess)'s face, causing her to turn slightly inward towards her perfectly flat pillows with a groan. Yet, seconds later, her thick eyelashes rose upward and slowly  revealed the cloudy but piercing grey eyes which dissuaded even the most mischievous of campers within Hermes domain to tell the truth or stop misbehaving. At least while within her view. Avery was not by any means a hard woman. She would comfort the youngsters who cried about being away from their families throughout the night, not moving even when her arms became numb under their weight. However, neither was she an idiot or someone who could be easily taken advantage of.<br/><br/>Her wrath and sometimes thirst for vengeance as a child had once garnered the attention of the sons of Ares, who had tried, often successfully, to fan the flames of her rage to see if they could survive it unharmed. For a time, she honestly believed they made it into an initiation ceremony for their newly claimed until she finally harnessed and leashed her temper enough to stop responding to their taunts or jeers. It did not take long for them to become bored and leave her be. Avery stretched out her lithe limbs and listened to the faint but happy chipper of a bird perched on a thin branch. Even though she was aware that every second counted and that laziness shown on her part would cause the younger campers to replicate it, she did not feel compelled like normal to rise instantly from the bumpy mattress. With all the chaos and turn of events lately, which pushed the camp into rebuild mode, no divine parent delivered a sign that she belonged to their brood of children.<br/><br/>Not that she actually cared anymore.<br/><br/>The knowledge of the divines, most of them at least, being liars, cheaters, and scoundrels who would kill an innocent if it served their own selfish needs had long ago been branded against her skull. But still, being denied bothered her like an unreachable itch which tormented her at a moment's notice. One unfailing and ritualistic morning jog later, Avery freshened up, blatantly ignoring the quickly normalized chaos, and then ensured the head counselor of her cabin had her help if needed. It was only once everyone was attended to did she step into the now bright and unyielding sunshine with crossed arms over her breasts.<br/><br/>"Ave! Ave!" One of the younger camp members screamed her name then stopped in front of her with clearly excited eyes. "Did you see it?"<br/><br/>Her thickly arched brows furrowed closely together with evident confusion written across her expressive face. "See what?"<br/><br/>"They say it was a bigger than a giantess' as--." The young camper stopped himself before he grinned cheekily in the hopes of not being whacked across the back of the head for his almost mistake. "Chimeka. Chimerca."<br/><br/>"Chimera," Avery supplied patiently even though concern darkened her grey eyes.<br/><br/>"YEA CHIMERA! They say he took it out with his bare hand! And then there were guts and blood flying everywhere!"<br/><br/>By the excitement and lack of fear, Avery had to guess that the threat had been handled by the appointed watch and somehow rumors rather than truth had already started to fly within the camp. "Shouldn't you be at breakfast? Come on, I'll walk you over and maybe we can find out exactly what happened, alright? The next person who mentions this story and says that someone belonging to this camp defeated a chimera with their bare hands then you can call them a liar and tell them to come find me if they become offended."
