Maxine Grace

"It'll become old news, soon enough."

0 · 260 views · located in Halfblood Hill

a character in “The Lightning Thief”, as played by Valor

Description

Name: Maxine 'Max' Grace
Age: 12
God/ess Parent: Apollo
Appearance: Max is barely over five foot in height, with a slender athletic build that can almost be mistaken for scrawny. Her face is delicate with high cheekbones with a rosy pink glow and large icy blue eyes atop them. Her chocolate brown hair is extremely long and slightly wavy in texture, usually pulled up into two high pigtails on either side of her head and a roughly cut fringe sits on her forehead, better framing her face. Her skin is pale with no real noticeable blemishes until you get up close when you may spot the odd scar. Her attire usually consists of a combination of roughly cut mid thigh shorts, t-shirt/vest and a zip-up hoodie, though she is never without her knee high black leather combat boots. The only piercing she has is in the top of her right earlobe, where a single loop of silver metal glistens.
Personality: Max can be perceived as quiet or shy, but she would say she was just observing her surroundings. She is a careful girl, often watching a situation unfold in front of her before making any input herself. It is not exactly hard to befriend her, she is generally open to most that speak to her first. She does not like talking about herself, neither about her talents nor her flaws though makes no reaction when they are pointed out to her. Max resents her father, blaming him for her mothers death, though this is another topic that she does not speak with anybody about. She would much rather hear about somebody else's life than speak of her own. Luckily for her, everybody so far has understood that without needing to be told.
Magical weapon(s): The only heirloom from her father, a lightweight silver bow that seems to grow as she does, always proportional to her size. A quiver of arrows match the finely decorated bow, and Max has found no matter how many arrows she uses, the quiver doesn't seem to run out.
History: Maxine spent most of her younger years in England, in a quaint little village amongst the green fields of the countryside. It was quiet in her village, with only a few other children there it was the perfect place to keep out of harms way - or so Max's mother thought. When Max was nine years old, a small mob of monsters struck the tiny village after hearing a demi-god lived there. Most of her friends survived the night, though it was decided that for their safety Max and her mother would move to America, hoping to loose track of whatever had tried to find them. On the journey, Max's mother had explained who her father was and why she had never met him. It was all a game at first to her, and Max didn't believe a word of it. The pair seemed to have flown right in to more trouble as they landed in America, with more attacks and accidents happening more regularly than when they were in England. Only when the last attacker killed her mother, then did she believe. Fortunately, an American friend of the family saved Max's life that night and took her to the safety of Camp Half-Blood. That was two years ago now.

So begins...

#, as written by Soki
Everything seemed to happen so fast, a change in Ish that seemed so unnatural, then his warnings of Aunty Em, being Medusa. Then the attacks by Sage, Ish, and Max all together. This was a lot for someone new to this world. Though in hindsight the life-like statues made much more sense now. Sage had sunk his blade into Medusa's middle, And Ish had gone in for the cleaving of the head, and Max had all but disappeared to unleash her own attack with arrows, leaving Lucas all but a glorified paperweight in the middle of the dining area flabbergasted and jaw hanging loose. He knew not what to do at this time, all three of his friends had reacted quickly, but with the weaponry he had, he seemed unneeded for this battle.

His body still seemed so unwilling to move, even with the knowledge of what would happen if he looked upon Medusa's face, though with a yell from his mind, his body finally jumped into action. He shielded his eyes with one hand looking towards the ground as he moved forward. When he was beside Sage he quickly drew Riptide closing his eyes as he added his blade to the body of Medusa. The sound of hissing right above his head sent a shiver up his spine. Though the hissing was caught short by the sound of an arrow flying past and pinning itself somewhere in Medusa above his head, probably near the heart of the beast, the the sound that was most sickening was the thumping and sickening splurching noise as the head rolled across the ground.

It was a couple of minutes before Lucas dare opened his eyes, but considering the hissing had all but stopped and his sword could move more freely he was sure the beast was dead. He looked at Sage, then at Ish, but before words could be shared his stomach let out a growl, and his eyes turned to the table with food on it. "I uh...well" He paused trying to gather his words to form total sentences. "I say we eat before we leave, i mean why waste it?" He did not wait for any of his friends to warn, or try and stop him, making his way to the table and taking a seat as he began to pile whatever looked appetizing onto a plate and dig in, to hell with the consequences right now, his stomach needed to be filled, and by the gods he was going to fill it.

Ish's classic scowl returned in place the moment that Medusa had stopped looking at him, and he kept his eyes clamped shut as he heard the hissing fade, skimming his blade across the ground until he made contact with the head, making sure he knew where it was before opening his eyes, firmly looking away from the head, just in case. Looking around, as Coralbrain went right for the food before even checking it for anything troublesome, he got a nasty looking smirk on his face as his eyes landed on some bags and rags, striding over to them, grabbing them and returning to where the head rested, covering the head before going to work, sealing it away into a package before standing again, rummaging around the warehouse and returning with a box. He then dumped the head in the box, sealing it and marking it with Coralbrain's name, grinning in a nasty manner as he finished, addressing it for Mount Olympus.

"Wonder how much they'll love this little trick, yea?" Ish promptly sent the box and its nefarious package on its way, standing and brushing his pants off, the scimitar disappearing back into its incognito form. Arms crossed, he glanced at the others as Lucas stuffed his face, mentally counting off in his head before turning to the table. "Well, since our mine canary hasn't keeled over yet, the food might be safe after all. Odd..." He glared at the table, not trusting the fact that the food would be untainted, with such an otherwise cunning trap set up. Some poison that froze up the body would perfect it, but it seemed that Medusa had gone and lost her head, so it wouldn't be prudent to go about giving advice to a corpse.

Still, Ish started pacing, thoughts racing, while Lucas went at the food, the others would most likely get to the food before he would. They had far too much to do, and far too little time to do it in. Find the lost prize, get to it and reclaim it from whatever nasty creatures had it, and get it back before an all out war started. All in the span of no time what so ever. Gods he hated being the sire of a deity some days, far too much involved with it, far too many strings attached. Eventually he would sit down and eat, but it would be a light meal, returning rapidly to his pacing and thinking, occasionally fishing around in his bag and muttering apparent nonsense to himself.
