Lets Get More Personal
Likes: *Encyclopedias *Learning new things *Seeing peoples' memories *Exploring things *his journal *Writing *reading
Dislikes: *Athena kid's when they act like know it alls *Forgetful people- It annoys the Hades out of him *Liars *Avocados *At times being uncreative (he has excellent memory he just has trouble piecing things together.) *Losing things *people forgetting him (A way to get on his bad side) *Snobs
Personality: Mike is a good person. he likes to help out people when he can and tries to be modest. He is always welcome to conversation, but there is a change a casual conversation can be dragged on with him. He is a motor mouth and can extend a conversation on forever even if he doesn't realize it. Another thing is he is very nosy and will ask personal questions. He has no ill-intent he just wants to know for the heck of knowing it. Generally he is nice except when an Athena kid starts to show off their intelligence. He may make a few snide remarks here and there.
Mike isn't a violent person he would rather avoid fighting, but that doesn't mean he won't if he's pushed. He tries to be nice to almost everyone, but he does hold grudges. Because of his mom if someone does something bad to him he will never forget. It's hard for him to really get over things.
When he gets in a depressed state, it's really hard to cheer him up. He usually acts quiet and reserved when he isn't happy. Time away to himself for him to reflect is usually the best remedy for this. He isn't a type to go talk about what's making him sad. That just makes him feel uncomfortable.
Mike believes in fairness for people. It is a point that he always likes to stress with people. The thought that someone is better than another person is very irritating.
History: Xavier Livie was an actor. He had no intention of settling down or having children. Like most young actors he did the usual, partying, expensive cars, meeting women. His life was so full of possibilities. He had starred a series of movies that helped his career. One of the reason Hollywood loved was because of his competence during a scene. He would read through a script once or twice and have it memorized. This caught the eye of Mnemosyne. It had happened that she was taking time off in Hades watching over her pool and roaming the earth. She was in a mood and decided to go to one of his casting parties.
The Titaness wasn't some easy hook up so try as he might he couldn't get her to do anything. Xavier proved persistent. She finally decided to go on a date with him. She gave him complicated directions for him and said to meet her in a month. A month went by and he remembered. Usually he would of just went on to another girl, but she was intriguing. He did as she said and met up with her. She was surprised to say the least and after the date they hooked up. They saw each other for a week then she said she had to go he bid a a far well. About nine months later, She arrived at his house with a baby. After a long discussion she and explanation he ended up with Mike.
Even though Xavier didn't really want a kid yet, he treated Mike with love and respect. Xavier even proved to be strict and did his best not to spoil him. Mike had no idea who his mother and Xavier would just say she had to go away. At a young age Mike started to show signs of his mother's side. He would glance at things and remember with great detail what he saw. Whenever he'd tell his dad about his day he would say everything. His dad just thought he was a talkative little kid.
As he grew up he had started to show a flare for academics in school. He would score with perfect scores on test. The other kids started to criticize him for his high scores so he started to make mistakes on purpose. He hated doing it, but he didn't want to be an out cast at school. Around his 11th birthday his dad finally married to Kristina. She proved to be a nice step-mom. They did the regular family thing when Xavier's schedule allowed, like vacations and things like that. he started to get weird visions of whenever he was around people. He didn't know who to tell so he kept it to himself.
A few months after his 12th birthday a woman came to visit him. His Dad knew who it was and invited her in. The two talked among themselves and finally the woman said that she was Mike's mom. Mike was skeptical at first. When she started to say she was a titaness that was even more unbelievable to him. She started to say some of the things he would start to experience. Which she was right of course. She questioned Xavier why he wasn't at the academy yet. After a talk Mike had to pack his bags head of so that he could learn to defend himself. She gave him a note book and a sword which turned into a bracelet.
He finally arrived at the academy, he was surprised at the amount of people there. He instantly fell in love with the place. He was sorted into the dormitory much to his disdain. It had mostly little kids there. After his 13th birthday, he got to go live with his older siblings. He enjoyed the academy and all of it's facilities. He had kept coming to the academy ever since.
Abilities: *Seeing memories- His mom is the Titan of Memories. He has an ability to see a person's memories. *Altering Memories- He can also alter memories of people. Change the way the target remembers or perceives things *Deleting Memories- He simply makes them forget. But only portions of a person's memory even doing a that is straining. *Excellent memory- He can remember anything and bring it up whenever necessary. *Projecting memories- He can make a person memories appear in the physical world. It's more like a movie since he can't alter anything about these memories when he projects them. *Good with the sword- He's a decent swordsman. Not on the level of an Ares or Athena kid, but enough to defend himself.
Weaknesses: Memory Abilities- Now he can't just go around erasing and changing peoples memories. They have to be either in a weak state mentally or physically. A persons will and attachments to a particular memory can limit what he can do to a memory. He has to touch their head too. If the person is actually willing to let him alter their memories then he can. When he does see someones memories he sees it only from their point of view. Also it only works on living things. An exception would be a soul. Just seeing a person's memory is easy to do. Doing more sophisticated stuff is draining and can cause headaches if overused. Projecting memories especially. *Talkative- Mike has a tendency to talk too much or explain in too much detail. He can be a bore at times when bringing up something he remembers. *Busy body- He will intrude at times. Asking about memories he's seen or asking personal questions with out thinking it's rude *Too Factual- At times he only goes by facts and can often be over look things or trends. He can at times over look things that would be apparent if he just pieced things together. This leads to him lacking some creativity. Usually it takes someone to point out a pattern or for him to look at it for a long time. *Grudges- he can hold a grudge forever. He never forgets so forgiveness is hard for him to give. *Horrible aim- Let's just say long range fighting isn't his thing.
Other Information: His mom has given two items. One his sword which is in the shape of a bracelet he always wears. The other is a journal. It has an infinite amount of paper and cannot be ruined. He just uses it to write.
