Personality:
- RECKLESS: Palmer has something against directions. She hates being told what to do or when to do something. Any time someone tells her what to do, chances are this girl will do the opposite of that.
- IMPULSIVE: This kid will never think anything through. She acts off of her first thought and doesn't care to weigh options. Some may consider this brave, others may call it stupid.
- SARCASTIC: Sarcasm is usually used as Palmer's defense mechanism. After living with her evil sister Brittany, she has developed a way of saying things that would be nice in a not-so-nice way.
- EASILY MANIPULATED: As someone states a clear point, or if Palmer get something out of it, this girl is very easily manipulated. For those who are good at twisting words it is easy to persuade Palm, but for those who need a lot more practice, good luck. Things usually have to sound like they are Palmer's idea if you want her to do something.
- SCATTER-BRAINED: Palmer's thoughts are all over the place. Staying on one subject for too long is unbearable to her.
- TALKATIVE: This kid never shuts up. That's just the way she is. Palm will talk to anyone who is next to her and hold a decent conversation.
History: Sixteen years ago, Carly Canton took home her premature baby girl from the hospital. The child was brought back to a two bedroom apartment in Palm Beach, Florida (hence the name Palmer) where she would spend the first few years of her life. The mother and daughter grew close within the next five years. Palmer was Carly's first born and treated like a princess because of it. Those first years of her life Palmer got everything that she could ever ask for. Things began to change by the time Palm was about seven. Her mom left her with a babysitter on most nights and the next thing she knew they were moving out of the apartment and into a house in Virginia with Carly's fiance, Ryan Parker. Ryan had a daughter who was about four years older then Palmer named Brittany. The two girls hated each other. Brittany was never nice to Palmer. She would do things like cut off all of Palmer's teddy bear's head, spit in Palms food, and one time duct tape the younger child to her bed. Brittany was the devil, nothing could have been worse in Palm's eyes. Ryan was never a saint either, though. He was just as bad as his daughter. Since Carly had become a flight attendant she wasn't home much. Leaving Palmer with the Parker's was a huge mistake. When PC was about twelve and Brittany was sixteen she was chased around the house by her crazy step sister and her drunk friends trying to dodge various objects being thrown at her. Brittany had thrown a glass vase that shattered leaving a piece of glass stuck in Palmer leg, and one of her friends decided to throw a knife. When Palmer turned around she put her hand up to push the knife away but the blade sliced her palm creating a deep gash that took hours to stop bleeding. The twelve year old probably should've gone to get stitches or something, but there was no one there who cared enough to take her. Months passed and Brittany left for boarding school. Life was different after that. Carly came back home for a while and Ryan left on a business trip. Things seemed normal with just Carly and Palmer until about a week before her thirteenth birthday. Out of no where, Palmer was "claimed", as they call it, by her father, Apollo, who she had never given much thought to. Palm knew she had a dad, but she never cared enough to ask about him or anything. This came as a shock to her. It was something that she hadn't expected. Her mother explained the whole thing. Apparently what had happened the week before her thirteenth birthday was real and had to be dealt with. Palmer was invited to attend a school/camp for kids like her, Half-Blood Academy, where she was to learn to be a hero? Whatever that meant. Palmer didn't want this, but she wasn't given much of a choice. Since freshman year Palmer has attended Half-Blood Academy.
Abilities:
- Naturally good at poetry and rhyming things.
- Accuracy when shooting an arrow is usually decent.
- Palmer can heal minor cuts, but nothing too serious.
Weaknesses:
- Unable to remember things in great detail
- Scared to death of "up close" combat (she prefers her bow and arrows)
- Reckless. Palmer never thinks things through.
Other Information: - Palmer is scared out of her mind of dying before she turns 24.
- Although she acts as though she could care less about being a demigod, all Palm really wants is to make her father proud.
- She tends to stay under the radar when it comes to things she'd rather not do.
