Full Name: Mikael Lars St.Claude (a.k.a Mikey)
Age: 18
Description or Playby: A tan, unkempt black haired male, standing at 6’1” with an athletic build. He would normally wear anything he needs to work in a forge. (i.e Gloves, apron and, a welding mask)
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Olympian Parent: Hephaestus
Mortal Parent: Laura St.Claude
Personality: Mikael has a good laid back attitude. He enjoys making weapons and such for the campers and loves to see a battle worn weapon. When working however he seems to be a totally different person. He becomes focused only on the work at hand. He wants his weapons and items to be made perfectly just like his mother wanted. Mikey does not like the mention of his family only for the fact that it reminds him of his brother and, about how soon he died. Mikey lives by the saying "And eye for an eye". If someone acts a certain way towards him he feels he has the liberty to say or do the same in return. The only other thing Mikey likes other then forging is cake. Especially chocolate cake. He loved to eat it but his mother never bought any. The only time he had was at school during a classmates birthday. One giant thing Mikael doesn't enjoy seeing is the mistreatment of weapons and other machinery. It agitates him and makes him slightly hostile. To him all weapons have a soul and a story. He treats them respectfully and hopes that others would do the same. When it came to romance he was absent minded. The whole idea of love never caught his eye and, he wasn't into any romantic movies. He preferred action movies and really enjoys older movies like Godzilla. Mikey tends to be naive in the face of danger. Although he knows what he is fighting he still tends to go directly in and fight anyways. Most of the time Mikey tends to not think before he acts.
History: Mikey and his brother Ashton had always loved watching their mother forge in their metalworks shop. She made kitchen knives, pots, pans and, anything that a person would need in their home.The store was located in Pennsylvania near a corner-store. School like was alright for Mikey. He didn't care too much for it. He found it rather boring, he never had many friends and, of course his grades had been average to below average. It was just enough to make him pass. When returning home sometimes his mother would have created weapons like old-looking swords and hammers that knights would use. When Mikael became old enough, he started smithing on his own. At that point he was, of course, a natural. Every time they would be on some kind of break the two children would hear about the story about how she met their father. She always explained it as the following:
“He was a kind man who would visit our shop on occasion. He was kind and very manly. After some time I asked him out. He accepted and then we went on some dates. The nights were so nice even whe-”
At that point the two boys would usually cut her off or stop her. Their mother was blunt and would say exactly what would happen without a single worry of scarring her children for life. Although the boys did cut her off she would keep going. Of course she would most likely be doing it on purpose but, in the end it was so they could keep their family together.
In the meantime. Mikael had been working on a small robot pet. The reason was because his mother didn’t like the idea of a dog or cat running around the molten hot lava that is the melted materials used for making new utensils and things. It began to move and respond to commands. It started with the easy tapping. One tap for yes, two taps for no, and so on. It worked but it felt lifeless. His little brother Ash actually liked it and wanted to name it. They both agreed on the name Brand. It was cool and reminded them of fire. Which of course felt very close to home thanks to their heritage.
By the time Mikey was 12 and his brother was 11 they had been visited by a rather odd women who tried to buy wares from their shop. It was nothing much but they wanted to help. After some time the women had began to act aggressively and revealed herself as a harpy she wanted Mikael and Ash. They ran but it wasn’t long until she caught up. the Harpy had taken Ash and dropped him like a seagull does when trying to eat a turtle. Mikael broke and tried to attack the Harpy. Just before the Harpy was about to retaliate and kill Mikey his mother had put herself in harm’s way taking a massive wound to her lower spine. Mikael had began to freak out and went back into the smithing area of the shop and hid with his unconscious mother. The Harpy had taunted the demigod. At that point Mikey had become agitated and came out of hiding grabbing the first thing he could put his hands on. It had been one of the older looking sword and a two handed one at that. The design was nice and he wanted to try it out one day. In this case it was better late than never. He swung at the harpy and had a better handle on it then he thought. The fight was not won yet and the seemingly lifeless bird Brand had sprung awake and attacked the Harpy. It blinded The harpy. The Harpy flailed and got a few good shots it. Scraping into Mikey’s arms and torso. After some time he was able to drive away the Harpy. Both Mikael and Laura had to be sent to the hospital. Mikey made it out better then his mother however. She had been paralyzed from the waist down. All Mikey came out with was a few deep wounds and a lot of scarring.
After the whole recuperation process and the funeral, a message was sent by Hephaestus himself. It told Laura to send Mikael to Camp Half Blood. There he would be safer then he was now that he had been found. After a lot of packing and, a lot of mental preparation Mikael had been sent to camp at the age of 13. He tends to be in the Armory and will rarely come out, only doing so for food and for patrol duty.
