OC 7

Name- Dexter Ford.

Age- 16.

Description- Dexter is around average height and weight for his age, with a medium build.
His eyes are nervous and grey-blue, and his hair is dark and curly like his father's.
He usually wears a sleek dark red hooded jacket over a grey t-shirt. He wears dark jeans with a belt, and black converse sneakers. He has a watch on his left wrist, as well as lots of bracelets and tags.

Mortal Parent- Claudia Ford (Deceased).

Olympian Parent- Dionysus.

Personality- Dexter can be quite warm and funny on the outside, but he has evil tendencies. He is wary of people, and he feels like everyone is out to get him. He enjoys watching other people in pain because of how much he had to suffer in the past. He thinks people are naïve and pathetic, and they need to see how cruel life really is. He is manipulative and he will blackmail people to get his own way. He is paranoid and constantly watching his back.

Fatal Flaw- Assuming bad in people: Dexter's past was full of mean people trying to do bad things, so it is hard for him to meet new people without judging them unfairly.

History- Dexter's mother, Claudia, met Dionysus at an Alcoholics Anonymous meeting. He went to them every once in a while to see the downside of his creation. There he met Claudia, a pretty, friendly young woman who'd turned to drink since her friend's unexpected suicide. They went out afterwards (for a drink, ironically), started seeing each other, and before Dionysus knew it, Claudia was pregnant with their baby. With the God in her life, Claudia was immensely happier, and was able to take control of her drinking problem. Dionysus stayed until the boy was four months old, when he suddenly realised that being a major Olympian God and raising a son were not things he could do simultaneously. And, since he was a few millennia more experienced with the God thing, he had to leave Claudia and Dexter.
After Dionysus had left, Claudia's life went off the rails again. She started drinking even more heavily than before, and got hooked up on some soft drugs, too. But, softer drugs eventually led to harder drugs, and by the time Dexter was 10, his mother was a h*** addict. Dexter was forced to start going out and working with gangs to earn enough money to fuel his mother's unhealthy habit. A lot of the people he encountered were cruel and violent, and he learnt to look out for himself and survive, at whatever cost, in the real world.
When Dexter was 12, though, his fragile life finally fell through- his mother died from a drug overdose in her room. Dexter didn't know what to do, so he just ran. He lived rough for a few weeks, running from terrors both mythological and human, and when a satyr finally found him, he was so tired and hungry that he was willing to go just about anywhere with food and beds. It doesn't end there, though. When he finally got to camp, Dionysus managed to recognise him, ago he was claimed immediately. Although he hadn't visited Dexter once in the last 12 years, his father tried to make it up to him by being super-kind to him, but Dexter didn't want to hear it. His dad had never helped him out when he'd actually needed it, and being nice to him now was far easier than a helping hand in times of trouble. Dexter though if Dionysus as nothing but a deadbeat dad, and went about camp jealous of other people's 'perfect' relationships with their parents.

Weapons- Dexter uses a large shield, and a spear to fight. His fighting style favours the defence over the offence, and his shield is pretty impressive, with lots of engravings on it. It disguises itself as a circular pendant of Celtic style that Dexter has round his neck when not in use.

Demigod Abilities- As Dionysus is also the God of Madness, Dexter has the power to literally drive people insane. He jumbles up the contents of their minds and leaves them a scrambled mess. This is really hard for him though, so often in battles he just confuses people can also cure insanity, though it's no easy task.
Dexter also has the ability to control plants, though it's not nearly as strong as those of his siblings, or Demeter kids.

Natural Abilities- Dexter is independent and good at looking after himself. He has great natural intuition and has a 'silver tongue'- he is good at manipulating and persuading people to do what he says.

Relationship with their godly parent- Dexter despises Dionysus, both for leaving his mother at a tough time, then for never helping him out after she died.

Year Rounder or Summer Only- Dexter sometimes leaves camp for periods of time, but, as he has no other home, he can be considered a year rounder.

Years at Camp- 4.

Other- Dexter not only thinks Dionysus is bad, but believes the other Olympian Gods too are selfish and unreasonable, and the world would be better off without them. (Or he would)
