Character Name: Sage Evanson
Gender: male
Age: 17
Description (hair and eye color, height, body type (skinny, muscular, etc) required):
God and mortal parent: Dinae Evanson (deceased), Aeolus
Powers**: he gets wings that are made of compressed air and linger after the power is deactivated but they degrade over the course of 4 hours and finally just turn back into wind and he is unable to use it for another 72 hours. the "cooldown period" is mainly just regaining the energy required to make the wings again. if he forces himself, he is able to drag the 4 hours out about 2 more but then he becomes too weak to even speak.
Flaws***: he tires quickly, the wings get in the way of everything cause he is unable to dispel them, he is a bit awkward and can sometimes be a bit ... creepy.
Pets: in all technical terms not a pet but he is friends with a small sparrow hawk that comes and goes at its leisure. he attached small blades to its talons. and it sometimes carries messages for him.
Weapon****:
a 4 1/2 foot long, hollow bladed CB katana (the bigger the better, he is really strong so he can use it)
a wooden bo-staff that is 6 feet long
a small 1 foot long blade dirk (CB of course) for the really up close and personal stuff.
Talents/Skills: he is strong enough to use a 4 and a half foot long blade katana
effectively. he is a very good fighter and constantly gives tips on improving fighting posture, attacking, strategy and various other things.
RP Example*: he flew higher, catching one of the thermals to ascend 50 feet higher, the cyclops was here somewhere but it was hard to see it among the trees of the forest. he positioned himself directly above the beast and pulled out a camera, he took several photos to mark the target. the beast was massive and dangerous, it would take a team to bring it down and they could not just send a team out to kill the wrong cyclops. "oh dang!!" he thought and dived out of the way as a boulder flew past him, the cyclops had seen him and was throwing rocks. he dodged many more, careful to protect his wings cause if they were hit than he would go down. he snapped one more mug shot and headed home "its about time i got outta here" he thought.
Biography*:
.....Early life - during his childhood, he thought it would be cool if people could fly, he spent his entire free time studying airplanes, aeronautic science/physics and learning everything he could about soaring through the air. he was actually very surprised when he discovered that he had wings but was disappointed when he found out that he was too weak to use them. so he started dedicating more and more time to building muscle strength and endurance as well as training his metabolism to give him more energy.
.....The News - over time he decided that he wanted to be more independent and sought permission from him mom to let him fly to NYC and she reluctantly agreed cause if he was in any danger, he could just fly away. so he set off with about 250$ on a journey to the city that never sleeps. it took a week to get there and it was there in New York when he heard that his mother had been walking across a university parking lot when she had been hit and killed by two drunk drivers. he was devastated by that and it took a month to get over it.
.....Camp - he found out about camp half blood when he found another halfblood traveling to somewhere and he had no where to go back to. something about a meltdown somewhere, but he focused on the idea of a place to go. he was still in new york at the time so he followed the kid to long island and found CHB. to this day he stays at or near camp even during the holidays, sometimes finding work in NYC to earn money for a hotel when he has to.
.....Personality - he hates people who are reckless, he finds it his duty to correct that in people and if someone acts recklessly, they get punished for it. he is not afraid to point out faults and he narrows everything down to an exact science, even combat depends on many but determinable variables (the only un-determinable is the order). he can be overly protective of his friends and is unable to leave anyone behind.
Notes: the "bones" of the wings are silverish and sparkle. the feathers are whitish in color but are translucent when examined up close. the wings actually have a physical presence and do suffer the same damage that real wings do: if they are sliced by a sword, the severed section actually falls away and he is unable to fly with the current set.
he is actally able to aim and fire a bow but not with any sufficient accuracy, never bothered much because the wings always go tin the way
