She cares about others more than anything, and is very protective, especially with Alex and Clara. She gets very determined when she has an important task to complete. She gets distracted easily. She shares everything with Clara and Alex but with anyone else she keeps to herself. She doesn't trust easily because of experience she had as a child. Her mind trails off a lot and at random places. She struggles to stay focused.

Firestar (a sword that just appears when she summons it)

She is very persuasive.

She has the art of the forge.

She is ADHD and dyslectic.

She struggles with controlling her fire powers, and if she gets to wound up it can get dangerous.

She is fire proof, but her clothes are not. She always carries a spare set of clothes wherever she goes. But she still can get herself into some embarrassing situations.

She is ADHD and dyslectic.

She is self-conscious.

She has a bad temper.

Relationships:

Clara and Alex: are like younger sisters to her. They are all very close and tell each-other everything. Dani is very protective of her younger "sisters" and would give her life for them.

Leo: is her hope. She has only heard of him. She hopes to meet him soon, to ask him if he would be her teacher with summoning fire.

Jack: is her mystery. He seemed to be hiding something and she wonders what and why.

Clarisse: is a threat. She is the "mean girl" of the camp, whom Dani considers a possible threat.

Backstory: Dani Had trouble fitting in everywhere she went. Her mother and stepfather tried to help but didn't understand. At school she was bullied and teased. She was called a geek because of her glasses and because she has trouble reading and paying attention. She learned to ignore the teasing after a while, but it made her self-conscious and defensive. One time during school she got fed-up with all the teasing and accidently set herself on fire. People started calling her a freak even more. She was so embarrassed that she left, never to return. She went home and her parents didn't understand her and tried to make her go back to school. So, she ran away. She was off on her own, living off the streets, and stealing from convenience stores and getting into trouble. She was searching for someone who understood what was happening to her. After she had just stolen a meal from a local store, just another normal day, she saw a girl sitting in an alley crying. The girl said her name was Clara and that she was lost and alone. Dani took Clara in and taught her how to steal. They were a great team and grew really close. Then, about a year or so afterwards they were walking along a beach and found someone washed up on the shore, she had serious amnesia. The girls nursed her back to health and brought her into the group. All they recovered from her life was her name. It was Alex. They told each other everything. For a while they were pretty happy. They were casually surviving together, when they started getting attacked by monsters. It happened so often they started moving more. They had trouble staying in one place. When Dani wasn't fighting or taking care of Alex and Clara, she was using her skills to make weapons. Clara and Alex would search for good materials for her to use. She didn't just make regular weapons, she made special…magical weapons that can transform/disguise themselves. They were made out of this interesting bronze metal they found. Unlike most other metals, it killed the monsters. She custom-made all of their weapons to fit their personalities and abilities. She was claimed after their biggest battle, when she was forced to let out her rage. In the end, the monsters were dust, her clothes were tattered, and she passed out with a weird symbol above her. After that she knew more about who she was, so she strived to help Clara and Alex with their search. After a lot of fighting, and running they (literally) stumbled into a camp called "Camp Half-blood." She didn't like it at first, but then she saw that Clara and Alex were happy and safe. She has been there ever since. Very recently she literally ran into some guy named Jack who can turn invisible. He said he was a child of Hecate but he hesitated. She wonders what he was hiding, and why she had never seen him or even heard of him before. She made it her job to know everyone at camp to see who could be a threat, but she had never met him. He said he was new, but he acted like he was well trained, which rose suspicion. Plus he looked her age or older. Not many demigods live that long in the mortal world without being properly trained.

Hobbies:

Listening to music-it keeps her calm and she likes it when she is tinkering.

Tinkering-it's a habit but she can make some pretty cool things. It is in her genes since she is a daughter of Hephaestus.
