"Are you trying to make me angry?"
The Basics
Name: Rebecca Caliper Nicknames/Aliases: Becky (Call her Reba and she'll try to end you) Age: 16 Grade: Sophomore Occupation: Student/ MCJROTC Sexuality: bisexual Titan Parent: Hyperion Mortal Relatives: Henrietta Caliper (Mother (Deceased)) Henry Caliper (Grandfather) Physical Statistics
Height: 5'9" Weight: 110 Hair Color: dirty blond Eye Color: blue
Lets Get More Personal
Likes: Order Discipline Structure War Movies fighting
Dislikes: "Bleeding Heart Liberals" Music war-video games indecisive people people who underestimate her
Personality: Her personality is not influenced so much by her father, as by her Grandfather, a Marine Colonel. She is politically conservative and rigidly disciplined. She was not raised be a follower however, but a leader. She is headstrong and does not take defeat or dissent easily. She has a short temper and a harsh sense of retribution. She does, in fact, know how to use make-up and dress in a lady-like fashion, she CHOOSES not to. She values Function over form, but in a pinch can be used as a shopping buddy (just expect her to complain the whole time)
She idolizes her grandfather, a life long Marine what has seen combat and been saddle with a desk. She wants to make him proud, and knows he wanted a son who would follow in his foot steps. This is why she tries so hard to be a leader, she wants to be like grandpa. She avoids femininity because she's afraid people wouldn't take her seriously. She did, however, inherit her mother's artistic eye and can see good visual combination.
History: Henrietta was a military brat who had a hobby of photography. She'd use light and premature exposure to create brilliant images, this attracted Hyperion's attention. Their affair was brief as she moved away to stay close to her father (She was only 18). Rebecca came along 9 months later and She was very happy. Henrietta usually called her daughter "Reba". When Rebecca was five her mother was murdered by her boyfriend. Henry took Becky in after a month of being unreachable. The boyfriend has never been seen again. Henry had always wanted a son to go into the military, so he raised Rebecca to love the Marine Corps. She joined the MCJROTC at 13, but had soon after her first monsters started to arrive. Luckily Her grandfather was a well armed person, she snagged her grandfather's ceremonial Sabre off the wall and managed to fight off the first monster. The second time her grandfather was there, he didn't know exactly what the creatures were, but he understood they were a threat to his granddaughter. She quickly found, however, she didn't need weapons. when the second monster attacked, a Telkine, she had broken the sabre and was trying to fend it off when a burst of light flew from her hand and incinerated the monster. She was unfortunately knocked out after that. Though she didn't know as her skin began to glow lightly, she'd just been claimed Hyperion. Her grandfather, A high ranking colonel in the Marines began researching the the attack, and subsequent dissolution of the attacker, and ran into Mars who frequents the Pentagon. Mars recognized the questions the old soldier was posing and liked them. He advised him about the Halfblood Academy. Henry drove her as close to the Academy as he could, and she walked the rest of the way. She carries a picture of father's unit Sabre. She hopes that someone can find away to replicate it for her.
Abilities: Being the child of a Titan, rather than an Olympian, she slightly stronger, but not as sharp. Ever since she first fired the beam of light, her skin is slightly luminescent. So long as there is some kind of light she can see perfectly, even if it's dim moonlight. With some effort she can fire burning beams of light from her hands, however
Weaknesses: Short tempered, not stupid, but not the sharpest tool in the drawer. Using her destructive beams causes her to pass out, as does being in a light-less space (Sealed room)
Other Information: Most of her clothing is fatigues (she's MCJROTC). Call her Reba and she'll try to end you. She's also got great hand to hand skills already, but not with our style of weapons. She may gravitate to the Roman camp more than the Titans, especially since the only divinity she's met, beside the monsters she and her grandfather killed, was the Roman God Mars.

Sorry I don't know if this is a work in progress. If so could you please put it in your title. So far so good! Just need you to fix a few things:
- please put spaces in between every section of the application. Makes it easier to read.
- please add more to the personality
- check for some typos in there and the history is a bit jumbled up: When Rebecca was five her mother was murdered by her boyfriend. Henry took Henrietta in after a month of being unreachable.
did you mean Rebecca?
- and also add that becky was claimed by her titan father. - there is also no mention of Half blood academy in there...

You still have some references to "Henrietta" when I'm pretty sure you mean "Rebbeca".
As far as I recall JROTC is a High School program, not Middle School.
There are still some things you didn't address that Eris asked for.
- and also add that becky was claimed by her titan father. - there is also no mention of Half blood academy in there...
then we have this whole section from the history
What is a 13 year old doing as a "well armed person," for starters, then you have her shooting at the Telkine's, which wouldn't have done anything as mortal weapons don't effect monsters. Why are the Telkine's even attacking Rebecca? How could her father "research the issue" in the middle of an attack, let along meet Mars?
Over all the history really needs to be reworked and cleared up some more before we can approve it.

Lord Apollo, God of Knowledge and Light; submitted for your approval, In the Last Olympian during one of the battle scenes Sally Jackson and Paul Blofis used shotguns lifted from police officers to fend off monsters. While I grant you the weapons were likely not as effective as celestial bronze would be in the hands of the inexperienced, in the hands of someone actually trained, they would be effective enough to survive the first attack. The second even with the back up of her grandfather the weapons were not effective enough. I am not at all suggesting she brings any with her or to use them further, she knows she has to learn the "appropriate" methods. And what kind of thirteen year old is well armed? One raised in a very right wing family

After the changes about the guns are made, I'd want to see a paragraph more of her personality. You can expound more on the personality that you've already stated or you can add more to it. When you're done, just reply with, "Edited." If it's good to go, then one of the staff will accept this bio.
