 Name: Ayame Brookewood
Gender: Female
Age: Sixteen
Personality: Ayame is the kind of girl who knows there are two ways you can do things in life: Her way, or the hard way. She is the kind of girl who tells people what to do, and expects them to do exactly that, with no questions asked. She is a take-charge kind of girl who refuses to hear the answer "no", and who doesn't mind being the leader. In middle school, Ayame was that girl that everyone flocked to, because she excluded this aura of unshakable confidence. Even now, nothing you say will bother her, whether it's about her personality, or her looks. Ayame knows who she is, simple as that. At heart, she's a bit of a rebel, and doesn't like being told what to do, nor does she like girls who are quite similar to herself. Her two greatest weaknesses are her deep-rooted protectiveness of anyone and everyone who's closest to her, and her inability to back down in a fight. Ayame is very opinionated, and gets passionate about the things she feels strongly about, to the point of where she has a hard time understanding different points of view.
Written Appearance: Ayame is your stereotypical "Daughter of Aphrodite"; long blond hair, blue eyes, slender, and tall. She's about five feet and seven inches in height (5'7) and weights one hundred and fifteen pounds (150). She normally wears a lot of mascara to bring even more attention to her unsettling blue eyes, and even when she's training, Ayame will have on a good, solid layer of concealer. Both her ears are pierced multiple times, and she has a diamond stud in her naval. Her sakura-blossom tattoo (a sixteenth birthday present) is located on her back, and she has a tattoo of the kanji symbol for water over her right ankle. A girl who relies on her beauty to get the things she wants, Ayame wears a lot of tight-fitting clothes, and short skirts. Don't be deceived by her pampered and well-taken care of appearance though. Beneath the beautiful mask lies a girl who will fight to the death.
History: Ayame's father was (and still is) a well-known actor who didn't quite know what to say when the Goddess of Love dropped a baby girl on his doorstep. However, he took her in and raised her the best he could; caring for her and looking after her between the filming of movies, Academy Awards, and photo shoots. Then, when Ayame was six years old, her father married a young model named Terra Scarlet, because he felt he wasn't up to the task of raising a daughter all by himself. Needless to say, she (Ayame) grew up in a household where your physical appearance was the most important thing about you. But true to that cliche lifestyle of all Demi-Gods, Ayame always felt like she was different from her family; like there was something out there for her, a life in which she didn't become an actress/model. At the age of thirteen, her father revealed to her the truth that she wasn't entirely human. But really, the news didn't change Ayame's life that much except for intensify the feeling that she needed to find something outside of her spoiled city life. So one night, she grabbed a couple changes of clothes, took a couple hundred bucks from her father's wallet, stuffed a pocket knife into her pocket, and left, following the pull inside of her. On the way to Camp Half-Blood, two things happened. One, Ayame met up with Sho, another Demi-God who was also looking for something outside of the city life (they teamed up and have been friends ever since). Two, Ayame discovered her skill with small knives. It took her three years to get to Camp Half-Blood, mostly because she was busy sight-seeing the rest of America. But now she's here. Ayame isn't exactly fond of the place, but she finds it bearable.
Powers: Ayame can kill a man with a knife smaller than her pinkie finger. It's a skill she picked up when the only weapon she had to defend herself with was a pocket knife. Unlike flashy daggers, you don't see Ayame's knives until they are buried in your skin. She has two different fighting styles; one is to slip the knives between her fingers, and then pack a punch, while the other is to send the knives flying through the air like senbons. Ayame also has a fairly good control of the water element, most likely because Aphrodite was born on the sea foam.
God(dess) Parent: Aphrodite (Still Waiting To Be Claimed)
Human Parent: Peter Brookewood
Other: Although she is very fond of Sho, and sees him as a sort of older brother, Ayame does not have any other (romantic) feelings for him whatsoever. She may, however, have feelings for a certain Arson...

 Name: Sho Hiroshi
Gender: Male
Age: Seventeen
Personality: All his life, Sho has been that quiet boy who never got angry, and always went along with what other people said. He keeps his opinions to himself, and is always willing to listen to what other people have to say. Rarely does he speak what's on his mind, although he's hardly the silent, unspeaking type. Most people don't want to get close to him, because his outwardly bland and agreeable personality unnerves them. However, the only reason he acts in such a way is because he hates it when people get angry. Sho is very clever, and can quickly figure out most puzzles, riddles, traps, and other mind-games with ease. Underneath his cold exterior, Sho does have a warming and more caring side to him that's willing to laugh away the cool mask he normally wears. It's rather hard to get Sho riled up, and even then, his temper fades rather quickly. Instead of being (and staying) angry, he's more likely to insult you to death with a calm smile on his face. Although he tries not to get close to many people, once Sho does get close to you, he'll do everything he can to keep you safe. He's not really one to give up in a fight, or let things go, but Sho's not beyond seeing reason (or the real winner) in a fight.
Written Appearance: For the most part, Sho's quiet and calm personality matches up with his quiet and calm appearance. He's about five feet, ten inches (5'10) with a lean body build; he's not packing the muscles like a body-builder, but they are definitely there, and looking at him, there's no way you'd mistake Sho for being weak, or easy to over power. There's also no doubt about his nationality; Sho's physical appearance screams out to the world his Asian heritage. With elbow length, ink-black hair, unusually pale skin, and ash-grey eyes, and a rather intense dislike of bright colors (which leads to most of his cloths being either black, white or gray), he looks a bit like a boring, dull business man. At least, from far away. Closer inspection would reveal a pierced tongue, three right ears piercings, and one earring in the left ear. His hands are covered in callouses and scars from handling his sword. Starting at his shoulder blades and stretching down the length of his back are two tattooed wings; one is an angel wing and the other is a bat wing. Sho, although he does his best to appear masculine, is the type of boy who gets mistaken for a girl more times that he would like.
History: Sho's mother was quite the unusual woman, considering the fact that she worked at what was essentially a Japanese version of the Renaissance Festival. It was a place where people could come and learn about what life was like for people in Feudal Japan. Not interested in playing the part of a geisha, Miki entertained people by giving them lessons in the way of the samurai. This was how Sho learned to fight with a katana. All of his childhood was spent traveling around with these people, and learning how to be an entertainer himself. There were plenty of other children in the troop, so he was never without friends, and his mother, who was a smart woman, home-school Sho and made sure he knew everything he needed to know about the world. However, despite the fact that he was relatively happy traveling around the country and setting up a faux little world for people to escape to, Sho was slightly bored with his life. There was nothing new, or exciting for him to see or do. And he always felt a slight tug in the back of his heart; a tug that threatened to take him away from the only life he had ever known, and send him spiraling off into the great, big world. When, at the age of thirteen, his mother revealed the fact that his father had been a God, Sho knew it was time to go. He took with him with mother's blessing, two changes of cloths, and his favourite katana (one that was actually for fighting, and not just for show). For three years, he followed that tug in his heart, meeting, along the way, Ayame, his closet friend. But now that he's at Camp Half-Blood, Sho feels let down. He hates it here, and would like nothing better than to leave.
Powers: Due to the fact that he's been fighting with one almost his entire life, Sho is more or less a master with the katana. What's more, Sho can twist the reality (for mortals, this would be the Mist), or the appearance of the things people see. He make them see something different from what really happened, or make them forget something entirely.
God Parent: Apollo (Still Waiting To Be Claimed)
Human Parent: Miki Hiroshi
Other: Sho loves Ayame like a younger sister, and is very protective of her, but does not see her in any other way. He does, however, see Myka in a very different way from Ayame...

This is it; the final copy of these two characters. As God as my witness, I swear not to make any more changes to Sho and Ayame. I think they've had enough.
