ยง . e y e s . hazel
ยง . h a i r . long, curly, chestnut hue
ยง . h e i g h t . 6'3"
ยง . w e i g h t . 210-225 lbs.
ยง . p h y s i q u e . muscular, athletic
ยง . s k i n . bronze
ยง . s c a r s . several
ยง . d e s c r i p t i o n . Nicholas is a spitting image of his father; piercing eyes, thick long hair, hard chiseled body. It's really hard to mistake him for anyone else's child. It's obvious that he is physically gifted by the gods, but he also takes good care of himself. His skin is blessed by the sun, and he has sharp hazel eyes that fluctuate from a gloomy sort of green to a gun-metal grey. They really light up when he offers up one of his charming dimpled smiles. Women around the world are jealous of his thick, long, and curly hair (not really). He has several scars, including a few knife wounds just beneath his right armpit and along the waist of that same side. His left palm has clear defensive wounds from some brawl years ago.
His fashion style is loose and easy; opting to go for something casual that he can slip in and out of with ease. Nick considers himself pretty meticulous when it comes to his appearance, and that's just by guy standards. He enjoys a little bit of facial hair, like maybe not shaving for a day or two. Otherwise, there's nothing particular about his clothing unless he "forgot" to put on a shirt that day.

ยง . d e m e a n o r . leader, charismatic, protective
ยง . f e a r s . becoming violent, having no support, being controlled, letting others down
ยง . v i c e ( s) . women, women, and more women. he's a lady's man, okay?
ยง . d i s l i k e s . bullies, girls with nasty attitudes, liars, too much authority, booze
ยง . l i k e s . women, surfing, sports, the gym, long walks on the beach (he's a romantic)
ยง . f l a w s . spurts of violence, jealousy, slight arrogance, unintentionally takes things over
ยง . s t r e n g t h s . initiative, driven, teacher
ยง . i n t e l l i g e n c e . he's smart... enough.
ยง . p e r s o n a l i t y . Nick looks like a douche from head to toe, but he doesn't let his image dictate his first impressions. Unlike some Poseidon children, he exudes exceptional social skill and easily blends into his audience. He's not afraid to approach someone, and he appears to have body-mirroring down to a science. On the outside, he's a handsome smile melting into conversation with seamless effort; able to laugh easily and enjoy either groups or one-on-ones. He can hold his own in any social situation. He has a soft spot for helping those in need, and of course, gorgeous women. He operates on flirtation so subtle that it's really only noticeable if someone's really paying attention. After all, he operates on respect - both of himself and others.
His biggest struggle is fighting against his own emotions. Sometimes he feels like he's just predisposed to hold grudges. He just can't let things go! He tries his best to "forgive and forget", but what he really does is bury it all deep down inside where it quietly festers. He carries the weight of his emotions in his stomach, as it can sometimes feel like a knot there threatening to come undone. Nick attempts to utilize those around him to mask his growing bitterness, hoping that by helping and being around the happiness of others, might overshadow the threat of unraveling.
Overall, he's going to be there when you need him; whether you are a man or a woman, a child of Hades or one of Zeus. He takes his status as a Demigod very seriously and wishes that others would do the same. All of the gods' children have centuries of greatness to carry on their shoulders, after all.

ยง . s t r e n g t h s . physical strength, combat, power control
ยง . w e a k n e s s . can sometimes act on emotion, easily deceived (woe to those when he finds out)
ยง . e n h a n c e d x s t r e n g t h .Like the children of Ares and Zeus, the children of Poseidon also possess peak physical strength.
ยง . s e i s m i cx m a n i p u l a t i o n .Nick can produce vibrations from his body, often the strongest in his hands and feet. When coming into contact with the ground, he can cause ground splitting and trembling quakes. He can even create powerful tsunamis.
ยง . w a t e r .While his primary skill is in earthquakes, he can do basic things like manipulating water, as well as underwater healing and breathing. He considers them secondary powers, though.
ยง . p o s e i d o n ' sx s w o r d . A gift from his father, Poseidon's sword must be conjured from the waters of Athens, Olympus, or Poseidon's domain. It doesn't possess any special qualities.
Nicholas is well known among Poseidon's children as taking a bigger bite out of the god's Earthshaker image. While he can manipulate water just as any of his half-siblings, he moves it primarily by creating seismic shifts. He's not particularly gifted in hydrokinesis or any of that stuff, but he can do a little if he really wants to. Unlike his sister, Liv, he gets more of a thrill out of combat if he is physically involved. He can hold his own against most people, including some Demigods, in a test of physical endurance and strength. It's just a gift of being a child from one of the three big Gods of Olympus. He does not possess the ability to communicate with either equine or aquatic creatures. Or maybe he can and he just doesn't know it.

Until he was around 15 and he got more involved with tourists. You know the kinds - the rich spoiled kids that came down to an "exotic" play to party, drink booze, and do drugs. Yeah, those types. He enjoyed it for a little while, but it wasn't a scene that he'd be part of for very long. The thrill of it all quickly faded, and he decided that these people were more trouble than they were worth.
He met his father, Poseidon, at a really early age. Like most of the godly parents, he was especially fond of (most) his children. The child, as young as six, was prone to tempers that caused surprising seismic disturbances. His power had been deeply rooted in his emotions, and as a child that hardly knew how to control those things, Poseidon helped Nick's mother teach the boy emotional control. There were a lot of things that would always be out of the boy's control, but Poseidon knew that if he could not contain this element, he could cause severe damage in the future.
He never knew Poseidon as his father until he was old enough to understand that one can have a biological father and a stepfather. It was somewhere around the age of ten or eleven that he was finally told. Since Nick had always been a roll with the punches sort of boy, he did just that - accepted it and moved on. After all, he already knew that he possessed abilities that could not be explained. He had always felt that he was different from the rest of his peers. The only thing that changed was his sense of responsibility to, not only his father but those around him as well. After he graduated from high school, Poseidon took the boy under his wing and became more deeply involved with his training. Poseidon knew that he would bring his son to Camp Athens one day, but he wanted to be absolutely sure that he could do so safely. Furthermore, he wanted a son that could outshine the ones of Zeus and Ares (though the latter would prove to not be that hard).
After noticing that Camp Athens was beginning to fall apart due to internal struggles among the Demigods, Nick was finally given the opportunity to be among peers of his own. Poseidon hopes that he can help others, and that he won't become part of the festering drama.
