Lets Get More Personal
Likes: Some of the few pleasures he allows himself is his pride in his swordsmanship and chariot driving.
He often goes out at night into the woods, and trains with a Shade(ghost) he bargained into assisting him with his swordplay. Noah would pay the Shades way across the River Styx in return for his training, it's uncertain whether or not Noah will actually follow through with his end of the bargain, or simply use the Shade to meet his own ends. Dislikes: Noah dislikes most people he see, with very few exceptions. He hates it when people try to cheer him up when he feels like nothing is wrong with him.
Personality: He holds a bitter resentment for his mother, who saw him as the cause of all of her problems, and could do nothing right, ever. Any self esteem or self worth that he has, is a result from his year on the streets where it was kill or be killed essentially. He learned quickly how to fight, run and to just stay one step ahead of danger. Once he came to camp and realized that the whole idea of Hades being his real father wasn't some cruel joke or insane excuse for his mother to be finally rid of him, he lost all fear of death. In his mind if death came for him, it would do nothing more than bring him closer to his father, which he hoped would bring him some sense of love and affection, not that he really understands what either of those are, never having been shown any by his mother or family. The best thing in his life was to be thrown out of the house, even though he was in constant danger, he didn't have his mother constantly beating him down as being something unworthy of life.
While he is certainly better off at camp than he had been at home, he still keep his emotions locked up tight behind a facade of detachment and cruelty. During his particularly low moments he revels in tormenting creatures he sees as beneath him, but aches emotionally afterward feeling like he is turning into his mother. At his worst he can flying into a near blackout rage with little memory of what he's done or why he's done it. At his best, he'll defend the people who manage to break past the facade into his core being, with every fiber of his being, even if it means laying down his life for theirs. There are very few people that actually manage to break past the facade and barriers he has built to protect himself from feeling vulnerable, mainly being his siblings and others who have known true pain and hatred in their lives.

Noah would pay the Shades way across the River Styx in return for his training, it's uncertain whether or not Noah will actually follow through with his end of the bargain, or simply use the Shade to meet his own ends. History: Noah was born to Angelica Setson, who was kicked out of her family home after becoming Pregnant with Hades’ child, and she resented her son for that very fact. For His whole life, if there was ever anything wrong, Angelica would blame it on Noah, and it got even worse once he turned 13 and was claimed by Hades as his son. On the day of his 13th birthday, Angelica and Noah had a particularly vicious argument, a Black Corinthian Helmet appeared over Noah’s head, Angelica was furious because she believed Hades had taken Noah’s side in the argument and threw Noah out of the house forever.
His being kicked out of the House was perhaps the best thing to ever happen to him. He was finally free of his mother's toxic influence, despite the near constant hunger and danger that follow demigods of the Big Three, he was the closest thing he could consider to being happy. He learned to fight for everything he wanted and needed to stay alive. One day he was able to command a hellhound to disappear without a fight, saving a satyr from certain death, the satyr helped guide Noah to Camp Half-Blood, where he was welcomed without question.
After Noah made it to Camp, and learned how to use Iris Messages, he sent one to Hades and asked how he had come to be conceived. Hades told Noah, that he had seen his mother sunbathing in Cyprus, and became enchanted with her beauty. Hades then decided that he would have her, and had his Furies bring her to him. When Persephone returned to the Underworld, he had the Furies return Angelica to her home, and never spoke to her again. Knowing his mother the way he did Noah understood, and didn't blame Hades in the least.
After his time at Camp, he decided to free himself of his mother's toxic influence, using waters from the River Lethe he wiped her memory clean giving her instructions on who she would be from then on, so that she could finally find happiness, then changed his name to Noah Aïdes, in honor of his father.
Feeling the need to have a fresh start himself, he left Camp Half-Blood and traveled the newly created Half-Blood Academy.

Sample post:
She had done it again! Noah had no idea how or why, but that damnedable woman who had given birth to him, had found a way to get him a letter. Not that the letter really mattered it was just the typical dribble of how he had ruined her life, how she wished he had never been born and so on. Nothing out of the ordinary for her. What had Noah really pissed off was the fact that for no known reason she was sending him these hateful letters, and they were somehow finding their way to camp...the only home he had know for the past four years. He had done everything he could think of, short of actually escorting her to the gates of Tartarus itself to rid himself of that woman, and *still* she managed to find him and infect him with her poisonous venom.
Noah picked up his throne like chair,. his favorite place to sit and think, and threw it clean across the cabin shattering it into millions of tiny pieces, only to have the shadows it was made out of, reassemble and form back into the chair down to the last detail. He let out an animalistic scream in frustration, whirrling around and slamming his fist with all of his strength right into the unyielding marble wall. He bellowed in agony as all of the bones in his right hand turned to mush.
"GODSDAMNIT," He cradled his right arm as tears of pain gushed unbidden from his eyes. Now all he had to show for his temper tantrum was a perfectly fine throne-chair sitting on the opposite end of the cabin, and a useless right hand.
"What did I do to deserve to be cursed with such a woman. I know the things I do now are frowned upon, but back then...I was innocent, I knew nothing! I DID FREAKING NOTHING TO DESERVE HER!!!!" He flipped over his bed spilling its contents on the floor, taking a mild satisfaction that at least one of his frustrated outlets yielded fruit. He summoned his chair back to him, sitting down heavily putting his head in his hands, momentarily forgetting his mangled right hand. The moment his face touched the hands he stood up bellowing in paining and letting loose a tirade of swear words in several different dialects of ancient Greek and Latin, some of foul, had it not been the Hades' cabin it's likely the paint would have been peeling off the walls as he swore. He kicked his chair towards the door, just as it was opening...
He glared at Victor as the chair bounce off of him disintegrating into smokey shadows, before reassembling again in its original spot. "Unless you have some amazing mystical means of repairing my hand, I don't want to f*cking hear it!!! So what the f*ck do you want?!" Noah demanded his voice raw and laced with bitter hatred, not aimed at his brother, but at the hated mortal realm itself. He stormed out of the cabin, his private realm of frustration having been invaded, breaking his tirade making him even angrier and his hand throb more.
He wasn't sure how long he walked, but it was long enough for Noah to find himself at what was called Zeus' Fist in the woods. He sat with his back to the boulders his head resting on his knees, he wanted to cry, to scream to pull the very earth in on itself, he had no spirit, no strength so he just sat there weak and weary.
"Lord, you have been summon, came a ghostly voice, Noah didn't even look up. "Not now," Noah growled waving the Shade off with his grossly swollen hand.
"Lord, Lady Persephone was most insistent that you appear before her,"
"It's summer time, she isn't in the Underworld right now, so she can't have sent you, so go the f*ck AWAY," Noah shot back his voice getting as cold as Stygian Iron.
"None the less Lord, you have been summoned to the Underworld, and would be wise to answer the summons-" Noah flung a dagger with his good hand pinning the chittering shade to a tree, causing a nymph to cry out in protest.
Noah stood level, eye to eye with the shade. "Do. NOT. Presume to tell me what to do. I will make you afterlife torture for eternity. Now do as I command and Go. The. f*ck. AWAY," he yanked the dagger out of the tree shattering the shade into a shadow filled mist. He slumped back down stabbing the ground with his dagger, bone weary and mentally exhausted. His body and mind were in too bad of shape to Shadow travel into the Underworld even if he wanted to.
There was a slight breeze then came a strangely familiar voice, "Owwwie," A big burly man with brillo pad hair and beard sticking out in all directions, pointed at Noah's mangled hand.
"Yeah Bob, owwie, I take it my father sent you to collect me since his ghostly minion failed," Noah tried to stand up, absent mindedly putting his weight on his destroyed hand, wincing involuntarily, stopping as Bob the Titan, formerly known as Iapetus, took up Noah's hand, using his godly powers to heal it without a second thought.
"Thanks Bob. I suppose we should get going now, before Father sends Cerberus after me,"
"Big doggie,"
"Yeah Bob, really big doggie. He could even eat you up without thinking. You're going to have to transport both of us to the Underworld, as I am just too tired to try and shadow travel myself. Think you can handle it?"
The Titan nodded his head violently as he griped Noah's newly healed hand, threatening to crush it again. Noah nodded grimly saying, "Let's get this over with,"
