Name: Conan James McCormick
Age: 16
Description: Conan is a lean filled out boy. He is about 6 feet even with enough definition on his body. Despite his Irish heritage from his father, he has an olive complexion with dark hair. He was told this is because his mother was Greek. He has stormy gray eyes making it seem as if he is always deeply analyzing everything he looks at...which he is. Conan isn't necessarily shy, but most of the time he prefers to stay to himself and his books. He has people skills but he just prefers not to use them because he believes many other humans to fall short of his intellectual level. One last thing he is very very very prideful. Conan's worst fears are spiders, heights, and of course...losing.
Sexuality: straight
Olympian parent: Athena
Mortal parent: Colin McCormick
Personality: Conan, as I said before, tends to stay to himself because of his superior intellectual level. People believe him to be snotty for that, but he can't help it. Sparking a conversation with others just doesn't satisfy his thirst for knowledge. He loves learning more and more about anything really. Despite the fact that he seems to be your typical nerd, Conan does not fit that description 100%. He loves to play sports to because of his prideful winning additude ,but deep down hates to lose and let himself down. Most of all hates letting others down that believed in him. This causes him to lose many opportunities in life that he turns down because he is frightened of letting those who trust him down. He has a knack for talking his way out of situations with his wisdom and trickery when he runs into problems but also can easily fight his way out when his cunning personality can't do it for him.
History: Conan's father met Athena at the Alnwick Castle in Ireland. Conner is a Irish architectural historian. He was there visiting the castle for work purposes when he and Athena met. She was disguised as an American soldier visiting the castle while she was off tour. His father instantly fell in love with Athena and everything about her. The moment their minds clicked Conan was conceived in his mother's brain. When Conan was born Athena told Conner that she was being shipped of to war again. When Conan was five, his father received a letter marked with an olive tree on it and no return address. He read it and began to weep as he did. It was Athena telling him of her true identity and instructing him to tell Conan that he was KIA on her last tour and that she would be looking from above to see how great her son turned out. His mothers expectations is what caused his fear foregoing others down. He believed every time he failed he was falling short of her expectations. When his father got this news they packed up and moved from Ireland to the United states in Atlanta, Georgia As a kid Conan was extremely intelligent and almost too high over the average for his age group. He was highly skilled in strategy, which he showed off in games like battleship, risk, and best of all chess. Even at the age of three his father couldn't beat him at anything that had to do with wisdom and strategy. He always had a love for war type games which caused him to pay paintball regularly with his friends. When they would come out all colorful from the paint he would be completely clean and untouched. His team always won because of his intricate master strategies. Other than competition like that he rarely hung out with anyone. He would read anything he could get his hands on in his free time. He loved the way it stretched his brain. Conan's first encounter with the Greek world was in the third grade when his class went to the WWII museum in New Orleans, Louisiana. When Conan went to use the bathroom he was walking back past a couple of confederate outfits when all of a sudden they came to life and where the body of the soldiers would have been there were skeletons and they attacked him. Conan panicked and ran for it. When thinking of something to do he saw an old Thompson rifle in the corner. He wished he'd had it in his hands....then boom the rifle appeared in them. Now that he had it he didn't believe it would work but something in his brain went wild when his hand touched the em rifle and deep down he knew it would. He pointed it at the skeletons and some sort of bronze bullets shot out at them turning them to dust. Since shooting an artifact didn't bode well with his school he was expelled. His father was waiting for him when he was home and he told him off the world he belonged to and said he would never be safe. He mentioned a present his mother had left for him that his father had buried in Ireland hoping Conan would never need it. Since he now did the two took off home to Ireland. When they got there his father dug up the sword, shield, and dagger that replicated those used in the movie Conan the barbarian by Arnold Schwarzenegger. His father said they were made of celestial bronze as the bullets in the Thompson were. Conan held out his hand and the weapons flew into them. He had no clue how but when he turned to a training dummy his father set up he wielded the sword and shield with perfection, despite never holding a weapon like them before. Him and his father then returned to America searching for a camp his mother spoke of in the letter. Then after six years of hiding and running from things that attacked them, they finally found it. Conan knew he was going to love camp halfblood. He met Chiron who told him all about the camp and was escorted to the Athena cabin where he would stay year round
