My name is Tempest Riley and I am a demigod.
I have seen a lot in my 15 years.
And when I got to school I am in 10th grade.
My Mortal Parent, Maddox Riley , raised me from birth.
Though my other parent, turns out to be Euterpe
What led to my discovery of all this? Well you see...
My dad was in a rock band when he met my mom. I guess that's what attracted her to him. But she disappeared right after I was born, so I never really got a chance to meet her. My dad always kind of resented her for leaving him with a kid and a lot if awkward questions about who my mom was. But I had a pretty cool childhood; I grew up traveling with the band as they toured. I was homeschooled, which was probably for the best as I have both ADHD and dyslexia. Nothing really weird happened until I was 13. Then these monsters showed up, and things got a little crazy. To make a long story short, I learned how to use a guitar as a weapon and my dad ran one over with the tour bus, with me directing him. It was awesome! But then he told me the truth about everything. My mom, the Gods, and Camp Halfblood. We happened to be in NYC with the band when the monsters found us, so by the next morning I had said my goodbyes to my dad and was at Camp Halfblood. Ready to start my new life.
And that's when I arrived at Camp Half Blood.
Since then, I have been at camp for 2 years.
And I have obtained the following beads:
I usually am told I act like sort of insane. I can be really calm one moment and screaming my head off the next. My temper tends to get a bit frayed, but I do know when to take it easy and back off. I just choose not to. I can be a bit aggressive towards people I don't know, but I'm really sweet and protective towards my friends. I do like being the center of attention, but people mostly sort of underestimate and dismiss me, because I look sort of young and weak.
I really like listening to music, singing, playing the guitar, and fighting.
But I hate sitting still for too long, being ordered around, being mocked, and snobby people.
And Please don't bring in lots of blood or small spaces. I get dizzy when I see too much gore, and I'm claustrophobic.
But no matter what one day I want to have my own band and actually get some respect around here!
In case I have to fight I have a harpe (Greek sickle sword). I'm pretty good with it after two years of training. And I also am really good at distracting and confusing people!
I'm really good at starting fights (don't ask) and getting people good and mad.
But I'm horrible at lying (I usually start laughing hysterically) and dealing with other people's feelings. If someone starts crying, I have no idea what to do.

1) You are given a test at school that has questions that teacher hasn't covered yet. In the middle of the test you notice that your friend next to you has a cheat-sheet. The teacher doesn't notice.
Well... I think I would probably raise my hand to pretend to ask a question and then loudly say something along the lines of, "Gee, isn't it great that no one in our class ever cheats. I'm sure glad everyone's so honest and moral." Hey, they deserve it for being so obvious about cheating!
2) While walking down the street you see a wallet on the side of the road. It has a small amount of money in it, but no identification of any kind. There is nobody in sight.
Um, finders keepers, right? I mean, it's only a small amount of money and there's no ID on it, so their loss.
3) Someone has played a prank on you which involves your public embarrassment and everyone begins laughing at you. However, you doubt they meant any harm by it.
Of course they didn't mean any harm by it. Just like I will mean no harm by it when I shoot them with a paintball gun from a nearby rooftop when they're dressed up and going out on a date.
4) You have arrived late to work because you had a flat tire. You've been on time every other day for the past month, yet your boss yells at you about it in front of all your coworkers.
Guess who's going to have a flat tire tomorrow? Him. All four of them will be flat, actually. How do I know that? Try to figure it out...
5) You're class has is splitting up to take part in different in volunteering activities around the community. You can volunteer anywhere you want.
I would volunteer at the library, and then rig up a stereo blasting heavy metal or something. It'd be worth the trouble I'd get in just to see everyone's reactions.
6) A little kid accuses you, in front of a whole crowd people, of stealing his toy which you did not do. You are twice his size, but he won't back off.
I would ignore him, and then steal all his toys the next day. He'll really have a reason to be mad then.
7) You have saved up for months to buy a new bike. As you're getting ready to buy it, a child runs by and steals your money. You chase him down and find that his mother is deathly ill and the child stole the money to buy her medicine.
... I guess I'd have to let him keep the money, right? Otherwise I'd look like a complete jerk. But once his mom is better, he's buying me a bike.
cool A friend of yours tells you that there is some really cool stuff in an old abandoned building. When you get there you see a sign that "Danger: Do not enter!", but the building doesn't look dangerous. There is nobody around to see you, and your friend wants to check it out.
Obviously, we check it out. This is clearly a trap of some sort, but you expect me to just follow the directions on some stupid sign? Onward! Besides, it's abandoned. How dangerous could it possibly be? ... I just know I'm going to regret saying that.
9) A very strong man approaches you while you're eating lunch and demands that you give him some food. He doesn't appear to be starving or poor. There is nobody there to stop him from taking it.
Sure, he can have my food. I will gladly shove an apple down his throat and then proceed to throw the rest of my lunch at him. He wanted food, didn't he? He never said he wanted to eat it.
10) Your two best friends are fighting over a small issue. Each of them ask you to choose their side.
I'd probably stay neutral, but secretly manipulate the circumstances to make them even more angry at each other, before revealing the truth and mocking them for being so idiotic to fight over such a little thing. Seriously people. Pick your battles.

A yellow aura appears around Tempest, a brightly glowing music note appears above her head. She has been claimed by Euterpe, muse of lyric poetry
