Full Name: Malcolm Alexandria Krüger
Age: 16
Playby: Without a doubt, Malcolm's eyes are his most intriguing feature, a extremely light blue which can seem green in just the right light. However, his eyes are framed with thick eyelashes, which make his eyes look deep-sunken. His hair is a dark brown, sleek, a little curly, and as practical as can be, growing out a bit at the nape of his neck. Added to his sharp features, the demigod is the type of person you wouldn't exactly call conventionally attractive, but rather someone who makes you want to look at them again until you see a certain aesthetic charm in their oddity.
His limbs are rather slender, with a supple strength that isn't the most muscular. Combined alongside his pale skin, his body has a delicate sort of elegance that looks a little brittle, liable to break at any time. Small boned and with angular features, the demigod always seems relaxed. His build is lean and willowy, with slender limbs, due to his fixation with ballet. However, much to his embarrassment, he has a rather feminine build, and could be mistaken for a girl from the back or if you don't get a clear view of his features.
Personal style isn't a priority with him, despite his sister's countless attempts to get him into it, but he usually wears a neatly pressed checkered top, especially loose-styled ones, with thin fabrics, sometimes layering with a solid and a striped tee and a zip-up sweater. He almost always wears leotards under his skinny jeans, and a thin cotton top. Tending to wear cloaks, he rarely puts the hood up, but prefers longer, more shapeless cloaks with enough room to move. He'll also edge to more modern jackets. His voice is more heavily accented, and he smells like parchment and petrichor. His walk, due to his build, is soundless, expertly avoiding any leaves or fallen objects. He wears glasses when reading, thick, hipster-style frames.
However, he does have some anomalies in his otherwise standard clothing. He wears a pocketwatch loosely around his neck, a present from his deceased father, Ian, and brings a small, absurdly thick coaster wherever he goes, along with a thin notebook with a pen clipped on to the cover. Also, another necklace he occasionally wears is a rock crystal pendant.

Personality: Malcolm is gentle, calm, and usually kind. He has a very go-with-the-flow personality outwardly, but inside, he’s calculating and manipulative. He’s driven-whatever it takes, he will get to where he wants to be. However, this is easily hidden behind his demure demeanor. He’s soft-spoken and shy, and is more of an introvert than anything. He’s not intimidating even if he wishes to be, cold and detached, but usually is tranquil. During a first impression, the demigod can come off as rude, but is actually just socially stunted.
When he's angered or somehow made mad or annoyed, he often mutters curses under his breath. He’s also a perfectionist and likes to keep things neat, so you could find him sweeping in his cabin or organizing items. The demigod loves routine. He’s very intelligent and has enough street-smarts to get by. Malcolm enjoys solitude, but company, too. He's also very short-tempered and holds grudges for an insanely long amount of time.
Malcolm is fiercly protective and possessive, tending to act first and think second when it comes to his friends. He's a (well hidden) mother hen at best when it comes to his friends, and will try to keep them safe at all costs, foregoing his normally quiet and calm nature. Malcolm often is awkward in situations he doesn't know how to control. He also has the bad habit of being too emotionally dependent on some people, and can be seriously hurt that way.
If you break under that surface, however, usually with a well-placed remark, Malcolm is warm and easily embarrassed, shy, blushes often, laughs even more, and has a hard time hiding his emotions. He also enjoys reading, thinking, training (for some odd reason), cooking, baking, butterflies, grass, trees, ponds, fish, and pondering random things like how much sugar goes into a chocolate bar. He dislikes something that doesn't have any mystery at all, so facts and such are usually forgotten or not paid attention to unless they're especially interesting. He also plays cello.
Overall, he's a pretty normal shy teenage boy.
History: Ian William Krüger descended from some distant royal, and due to this, his family had vast amounts of wealth. As he was a youth, he had a interest in myths and legends, but what intrigued him the most was the illustrious Hand of Glory. While the young man aged, he begun to be almost obsessed with the concept-a piece designed from a condemned murderer's hand, with the power to unlock doors and to freeze people. It would hold a candle, which could only be extinguished by the one who owned it, and was considered very dark magic.
While searching for it in a deeply hidden meadow in Virginia, he met a woman who introduced herself as the goddess Hecate, who had taken notice of his interest in her realm. She asked him why he wanted to find the mythical limb, and he replied with an answer she had not been expecting-so that he could destroy it.
His answer peaked her attention, and she began seeing him a new light that attracted her-and years later, during his fruitless searches, she birthed a set of twins and sent them to him. Ian was surprised and was at a loss at what to do. Instead, he decided to marry a woman he had been courting for some time and raised his children with her, settling down in a large estate in New York City.
Malcolm was fiercely protective of his younger sister-by ten minutes, right from the start, and got into fights often for her sake and decided that he would be the one to look out for his sibling, as their father was too often busy and their mother absentminded. His strange quirks and overly protective personality over his sibling made him out to be quite an outcast, and he was left out as a young child.
When the demigod was seven, he started learning ballet, and enjoyed himself immensely. However, he never entered any competitive events though he devoted hours of his life to the dance and he turned out to be a skilled dancer.
When he reached the age of nine, some things changed in his parental relationship. Throughout his life, the demigod had always focused more on physical activities than academic achievements, and his parents gradually became more disapproving, entering him in a heavy school course as in hopes to better his future. However, with his dyslexia, he struggled with reading even simple texts, and his sister did her best to help him throughout all of it.
But he turned fifteen, and the pressure began to make him crack even more. Finally ending his patience, he snapped at his parents, giving in to the frustration that he held and the bitterness he held at always being second best. He decided to run away, against his better judgement, and packed that night, locking himself in his room and escaping at night. Unbeknownst to him, his sister had also escaped that night, following him. However, their father died soon after from a car accident, which they did not know about, and their mother remarried to another man.
Between the two of them, they survived by sheer luck and odd errands here and there. However, his sister died from illness. Until he met a saytr in the midst of New York City, who told them about their heritage, he was alone and living on the streets-and barely. When he finally reached the camp, due to slight misconceptions of who was a monster and who wasn't-causing many confrontations with just odd-looking mortals (come on, it's New York. What can you expect there?) -he was immediately claimed, and that's when his abilities manifested.
Weapons: Malcolm carries a Celestial Bronze chain whip stuffed inside of a umbrella handle, slipping out with a sharp clink whenever he tugs on the handle, and each chain has razor-sharp edges, in a serrated design. Another item he carries is a thin capsule pendant around his neck, where a miniature scroll lays along with a engraved fountain pen. Both items, when taken out, will be enlarged to show incantations and this may be how he casts riskier spells. To put them back in, he simply shrinks them using magic.
Abilities: Besides using simple spells with no real effect-such as shrinking nonliving objects, enlarging them, and pulling objects toward him, Malcolm can't do anything besides creating illusions. The more complex the illusion, the less he can hold it up for. If it's just a tiny wisp of black, he could keep it up for roughly four hours. However, an illusion of a person would be twenty minutes at most, and even that's a bit of a stretch, making him pass out for maybe a whole day afterwards.
However, with a living subject to create, it will take hours of studying the illusion's original, since even a tiny waver can cause someone to look not quite right and not human. But if it were intricate, complicated, like a world or a room's entire perception altered (i.e. turning an empty room into a forest) then he perhaps could do it for a minute, but that's a hypothesis, as he's never tried.
