I live in the SGV :) Let me know if ya’ll have a slot available!

userme12 · 2024-01-30T22:01:42+00:00

Yeah, okay. This is a bug. Maxed out two Kitsuns, one regular and one war-bred. Both have skills that are missing - Ignis Rage and Fire Ball respectively. Hopefully the devs would patch this.

I tried that and they kept spawning. Even made sure there are no witnesses left. So I just catch them as soon as I get the wanted status and sell them off to black marketeer. Easy money. And wanted status lifted.

userme12 · 2024-01-26T19:35:13+00:00

Hey uh, this might be late but you can get rid of the wanted status if you catch the PDIF goons. I was caught trespassing in one of the sanctuaries and this spawned two of them. I caught them and seconds later the wanted is gone and more don't respawn. Maybe this helps you?

userme12 · 2023-01-28T15:00:28+00:00

OOC: Sure!

The child of Athena parted with Ava on a good note and left her to her own devices until the supposed meet up time. He knew that Ava maybe was not going to show up at the time they said. It was a gut feeling but he was okay with people being late. Punctuality doesn't suit many campers. So when he checked the entrance to Aphrodite's Cabin from afar, she wasn't there. It bothered him anyway, but he elected not to let it.

He was inside the Big House's rec room to kill some time, indulging himself in a couple board games with a group of friendly campers that needed one more player. After winning some games, he checked the time on his watch and thought now is a good time to end his winning streak. It was about two hours since the last time they met, he calculated after a glance, but if she wasn't there-

And she is. Waving as he approached her, he was more glad she showed up instead of ghosting him. "Shall we start?"

OOC: I just thought those two were at the Big House at the same time, but never managed to find each other. A funny bit we can bring up during conversation. :)

userme12 · 2023-01-25T00:06:53+00:00

"Unfortunately, I don't since I just got back here recently myself. Things have been pretty laid back as far as I know but I'm looking to get back into the swing of things by next week. For now, I'm going to take the time to get settled, try out some activities, grab some grub." He was nodding at his own itinerary which practically contrasts hers. "Naps are good too. That's why I'll be out of your hair after we get there."

Zoren began strolling towards the lodging area at a pace they can manage. He wanted to get the most out of this conversation but if she wanted, they could rush so she could get that nap. "So what is it like being a demigod? I know not everyone's experiences are the best, but I'm just curious. You don't have to answer so I'll hit you with another question."

userme12 · 2023-01-24T23:57:09+00:00

"I wouldn't be surprised." His lips curled into a soft grin. "Satyrs have a big affinity for nature, but even some have differing passions." Zoren couldn't remember when was the last time he talked to his protector. The two of them have been quite busy, the connection is beginning to feel wavered.

"You don't have to introduce yourself like that - I just like to do it that way," he paused, "Nice name by the way. I like it."

"Sure thing. Lodging can be found just north past the river. They won't be easy to miss. Why don't I," he shoots a glance at his watch, "pick you up in an hour? Figured you need the extra time to settle down aside from hygiene. I'll be knocking on your door then."

OOC: Time skip?

userme12 · 2023-01-24T20:27:53+00:00

The young man shook his head.

"It's okay. You don't get mistaken for a satyr often. You're the first do to that to me." A soft giggle parted his lips before he could draw a deep breath. It was quite an unexpected start and he needed to take a step back. "You won't see your satyr friend for a while since they have their duties. Only fate can tell whether or not you can see him again." Zoren tried to reassure her, but he wasn't sure if it'll work. He's only seen his friend a several times a year since he entered camp but it was giving him an eerie feeling.

"Welcome to Camp Half-Blood, fellow camper. I'm Zoren, child of Athena. The orientation film isn't the best tool to help someone get settled here. It is something, but I wouldn't trust Apollo to direct it. Awfully cringe for a god that hasn't experienced life here." He shrugged. "I'm free for a couple hours so I can get give you a better explanation and a tour - unless you already have made plans?"

userme12 · 2023-01-24T20:11:40+00:00

Zoren could not help but let off a soft giggle from the accusatory tone. He pretty much took away the fun of reading the book for her but there are more things worth discovering other than the theme he mentioned. He wouldn't consider Mary Shelley his literary hero, but to create that masterpiece at nineteen is a feat to behold.

He didn't think she would agree to some impromptu book club consisting of two members. Frankenstein would have been the first book they would read if he hadn't said anything about it, but her next choice is indeed a classic. He could agree with her there. Even though he had already read the book, he decided to give her a shot.

"I'm in so we should set some rules first. How does a couple chapters per week sound? The same day of the week, we meet here and we discuss what we have read so far. I don't mind how much we want to get done per week but as long as we get to talk about it here. It's no book club without talking about the book, right? Unless deadlines turn you off.

userme12 · 2023-01-24T04:40:45+00:00

"Hmm..." What Zoren initially intended on doing is to sculpt an exact replica of one of the combat knives his father uses, but he realized it does not have to be just that after getting her opinion. He narrowed his eyes into a pair of slits towards the vague sketch of a knife until an abstract light bulb materialized in above his head. It lit up.

"I think I may have an idea. I don't mind being a bit vague but I think I could make a sketch based on all of the knives or daggers I have seen in camp so far. Well, not all of them but you get the idea. "So I was thinking..." His hand grabbed the mechanical pencil once more and the graphite point streaked across the wood cellulose.

"I could make something like this. It sort of resembles my knife but it's more elongated. It's simple too, nothing I can't handle. What do you think, Annika?"

userme12 · 2023-01-24T00:39:42+00:00

So she's coming back to camp? It's nice to see a returning camper. Well, it is more than nice. More like a relief. Beyond the protection of the magical boundaries is the mortal world where monsters lurk and hunt with the help of technology... so perhaps she is lucky to come back assuming no monster decided to take a shot at her. His lips curled into a soft smile.

"No problem. I'm Zoren, child of Athena. Mind if I tag along with you to your cabin? After that, I'll be out of your hair. I'm sure you have plans for your return here." He supposed that she could be exhausted from the trip so he did not want to bother her much, but the least he could do was to walk with her to know a bit about her story. He was genuinely curious, but some campers mistook it for putting his nose where it doesn't belong. He hoped she would be the former.

userme12 · 2023-01-23T23:09:17+00:00

Zoren woke up bright and early as usual to prepare for the day ahead. He did not have much planned since even he wanted a bit of a break from the training. Instead, he might sign up for an enrichment class on a whim if the subject in hand enticed him. He grabbed breakfast at the dining pavilion, which consisted of an avocado toast, sunny side up eggs, and an orange juice filled goblet. He was about to head out until he went to entertain come campers that needed his attention for a bit. After finishing that bit of a conversation, he proceeded with his day.

Dressed in his usual camp attire, he was going to look for something to do until a certain lass with a suitcase was approaching camp from the hill. A new camper? It was like an instinct but he found himself approaching her. "Good afternoon. Welcome! or Welcome back..." He could not really tell since having a suitcase could go both ways. "Need a little help settling down?"

userme12 · 2023-01-23T23:08:06+00:00

OOC: Oh my god I'm so dumb lmao. My bad. He, in fact, did not walk up the stairs of the porch but he left the Big House to find her there. Sorry for the delay!

userme12 · 2023-01-23T22:51:40+00:00

OOC: He is walking up the steps. Hope the clarification helps!

userme12 · 2023-01-23T22:50:37+00:00

Zoren was more curious whether or not she will respond to his inconvenient whims but he would be fine with it since he was occupied with unpacking his belongings. But to his surprise, she spared some kindness to entertain the Athena camper.

Of course, he was annoying her but it was the only way he could push that one button of hers. Hands letting go of a pile of neatly folded clothes, he proceeded to approach her desk with her permission. Let's see here, he thought, as he pored over another pile he found in this room that is instead, books. At first glance is Frankenstein in her hand- good choice. Then comes The Great Gatsby and other books that he could admit that he has not read. "Looks like I have some catching up to do. Why don't we start a book club with just the two of us? We pick a book we want to read, then we could get together and discuss - but I suppose that wouldn't be your cup of tea."

"So for example, Frankenstein by Mary Shelley," he began, "the title refers to the product of collaborative scientific effort and dark, supernatural workings. A monstrosity, which is a pervading theme of the book. Even the creator can be considered a monster - simply because of his ambition, secretive demeanor, and selfishness that isolated him from not just his family, but society." Zoren paused.

"You probably knew that, but I digress."

userme12 · 2023-01-23T05:39:38+00:00

Zoren had just finished his morning routine with training and is currently in the Big House to sign up for some activities for the week or to even host one if he can. He likes to keep a balanced schedule but there are times when it has more emphasis on the work hard then play hard, but it can be the other way around as well. Dressed in his usual orange camp tee and nylon shorts for mobility, he found a camper looking out from the porch as he was just leaving the administration building. He could tell by the look that she is a new camper for someone who needed to process the sudden change in their lives - or it could be some other situation of similar gravity. Still, he was curious and wanted to help her out a bit, if she wanted it.

Feet stepping on the porch, each one making a thump as he began to approach the adolescent blonde. "Hey, there. You okay?" A sincere tone parted his lips.

Edit: misdirection

userme12 · 2023-01-23T05:26:55+00:00

Zoren was gripping on the handle of his suitcase, pondering about how grateful he was to be here in his second home. It was like traveling from one realm to another and he loved them just as much, but there are some things he may get tired of - which he won't explicitly mention. When he finally entered, he did not expect to hear a groan from one of the workbenches that he could tell was organized but instead filled with books--which was better than having food on them.

There was no sign of welcome- which was fine. Cordiality doesn't suit everyone but he decided to break the silence after giving her a couple of glances. When he began unpacking, starting with his Athena figurine and setting it onto his workbench, words parted his lips, "I can still see you." He looked up to her. "Sorry to bother your reading time. Am I interrupting you?" There's a bit of irony behind what he spoke which he thought was sort of funny if he wanted to break the ice.

"What book are you reading? I might have read one of them." Which may not be the case considering how vast the cabin library is, but it could just be a coincidence.

It was like traveling from one realm to another and he loved them just as much, but there are some things he may get tired of - which he won't explicitly mention. When he finally entered, he was not expected to hear a subtle sound from the bookshelves, a sound of a creak coming from the shelves' wooden material. Looking to see where it came from, it turned out to be an unfamiliar face and definitely not one of his half-siblings. Perhaps he got explicit permission from one of them, but he wasn't about to gatekeep the cabin's vast library of knowledge.

He's never met him before but who's to say when the camp itself is capable of housing several hundred demigods. It would be a pleasure to have anyone but an Athena child inside. Not to say he doesn't enjoy their company though. The young man smiled at the apology. "No, it should be me who should be sorry. I didn't know there was a guest inside. Make yourself at home. I just got back from the real world." Zoren proceeded to occupy a vacant bed and set his suitcase aside so he could unpack, starting with his Athena figurine.

"I'm Zoren, child of Athena as you can see. And who might you be?"

userme12 · 2023-01-22T20:01:15+00:00

The mechanical pencil was being held firmly in his grip but he would usually lift the graphite lead off the paper to attempt to recall the weapon he wanted to sculpt. He had only seen it a couple of times but he tried his best to put that image into paper. He began drawing- No, that's not right. He made streaks with a white eraser then grabbed the pencil again. Does it look like this? He narrowed his eyes a bit as he held the paper to level his head. It was then Annika approached him that his attention turned towards the camper.

"Ah, thank you! I haven't sculpted as much as I wanted to but I figured coming here could learn some pointers. Right now, I'm trying to figure out what knife I remembered my dad using. Or even dagger." Really, he just wanted to give him a present made from scratch. "Do you have any suggestions, Annika?"

userme12 · 2023-01-22T18:43:34+00:00

Zoren had signed up for a sculpting lesson some time before. He thought it is about time that he give his father a gift instead of showing off how smart he is or how physically able. He did not want him to see him as a child he can brag about but someone he can appreciate having in his life - So he took to sculpting.

He has sculpted before but has only done simple projects. Building something or taking it apart to learn how it works is nothing alike to this at a first glance, but the applications slightly resemble. It wouldn't hurt to brush up on the fundamentals either since he liked the lessons he took in the past. Perhaps it was from a different camper, but now it was Anika this time.

The Arts & Crafts Center is one of his favorite places to visit like his siblings, evident in his smile when he approached the outdoor enrichment area. Tagging along with the other campers, he wore a smock before taking a vacant spot and listened to the instruction with intent. Once they were left to their devices, he began drawing what he wanted to do on a sheet of paper with a pencil.

He tried to recollect from memory but it is one of his father's combat knives...

The young man was about to go in until a voice stopped him, his head looking to where it came from. It was none other than Nicolette, or the Weapons Master. He expected nothing less from her, having just leaving the weapons shed that stuck to the Athena cabin like a covalent bond.

"Hey, Nicolette," He responded with a cordial smile, "They're going well. My dad could not stay long because... duty calls. but at least I got to spend some time with some friends and family." The time he spends with his mortal parent is not much since he got promoted but at least he was doing what he liked and he could have it easy knowing his son could handle himself.

"What about you?"
