PLAY BY

Sarah Ingle

HAIR COLOR/STYLE

She has long, stubbornly curly, dark brown hair. It's her favorite thing about herself. It’s layered, soft and addicting to run your fingers through. It always smells like strawberry her favorite shampoo, and whenever she gets bored, she'll take her hands at the back of her hair, run them forward and stop when her face is covered in her hair, then she'll smell it's sweet aroma and let it fall again.

EYE COLOR

Her eyes were a soft brown that sometimes tried to be green. They were big puppy eyes, that, when used, she could get whatever she wanted out of someone; they were impossible to say no to. Her mother sometimes told her, on the days her eyes were an inviting brown, that she had her father's eyes. Her eyelashes were impossibly long too and, when she thought no one was looking she would pet them.

BODY TYPE

Overly skinny, she's so athletic, that she seems unhealthily skinny, and some people get the impression that she has an eating disorder. She's no all, but she's no short, about average height, about 5'6".

FACIAL FEATURES

She has an oval face, high school ones. Big eyes, eye's you can't say no to. She had thin curved eyebrows, and long eyelashes, impossibly long eyelashes. Her eyes can never decide whether the want o be green or brown. She had pink lips, full lips. She has tan-ish skin, she is Spanish, and her

CLOTHING STYLE

Ariana prefers short dresses, because she feels to constricted in long dresses. She really loves being comfortable in a pair of jeans and a t-shirt, but she does enjoy dressing up all girly in sun dresses and dressy shirts. She doesn't like big flashy jewelry, just earrings; a couple rings a bracelet, and a necklace. She doesn't wear watches, the only watch she owns, her mother said had been a gift from her father, so she keeps it safely hidden. She wears make-up everyday, not that she cakes it on, but she doesn't leave her house without putting something on, even if it's just base and mascara.

LIKES

• Penguines, because their bids that can't fly, but can swim(she likes odd ironic things like that).
• The chips at Chipotle, she sometimes just goes and buys the chips for a snack.
• She likes people to be honest, just straight, blunt honesty, no beating around the bush.
• She likes to go to the movies by herself, it sounds sad, but she finds it as a small escape.

DISLIKES

• She dislikes the "color" clear, it's not a color, it's the lack of color.
• Awkward moments, it's really hard for her t feel awkward, so when she does she very much dislikes it.
• being touched is one of her pet peeves. She doesn't want people to touch her because it makes her feel dirty, but nobody knows that about her because she lets people touch her, and then she goes and scrubs where their skin touched for like twenty minutes.
• Discrimination of any kind.

ADVANTAGES

strengths, personality only, at least four.
kindness - She's overly kind and trusting.
honesty - She honest, and though some people see it as rude, she's blunt for a reason: it doesn't help anyone to lie.
courage - She's strong, she stands up for what she believes in, no mater what the consequence.
maturity - She's mature. Yes, she's seventeen, but she's way to smart, and she see's both sides of an argument/conversation, and she points out both sides.

DISADVANTAGES

weaknesses, personality only, at least four.
honesty - She's honest. She's a very blunt person, and most of the time, people see that as rude, or inconsiderate.
anger - She has a temper, that usually get's the best of her.
stubborn - she's the most stubborn person you will ever meet
outspoken - she's always heard; she always speaks up and says what's on her mind

PERSONALITY

Ariana is a kind person. She's not very popular, preferring to keep to herself, and her close group of friends. Not that she's not polite, she loves talking to people. She has a really bubbly personality you could say, she doesn't necessarily start conversations all that well, but once she’s in one, she keeps it going. She's really trusting and it usually gets her hurt because people take advantage of her and manipulate her. She had a few friends back home, that understood her perfectly, but when it got too hard to hide what she was her mom sent her away, with a new phone, a new number, and no contact with anyone but her.

After an entire life of pain and suffering, she still smiles to everyone. Deep down her hurt and pain is building and will break out, but she pushes it farther and farther away. She's not exactly an optimist, more a pessimist, she sees both sides of everything, she knows the good, and the bad. She can speak for both sides of any argument, and she's really good in an educated debate. She has had her own struggles so she knows pain, but she knows happiness too, and that's why she sees all sides to it.

You could call Ariana a recluse, she doesn't like to be the center of attention and if she had to chose speaking in front of people or reading a book, she'd choose a book. If you started a conversation with her, she would jump in and be completely comfortable, but if she had to start it she got really awkward and her palms would sweat. And if you touched her, she would freak out. She didn't like being touched, at all; it makes her feel contaminated, and if her skin comes I contact with someone else’s, she'll spend an hour scrubbing in the bathroom, scrubbing the spot.

She does have one thing she doesn't let out of her possession. It's a ring that was her father's wedding ring, her mom's husband's bands wedding ring, but she called him her father because he was the one that was there for her. He died when she was little, so she wears the ring on her thumb 24/7. She's superstitious about it, if she doesn't have it she freaks out, breaks down and can't function, as if the ring is her only way of living.

MOTHER

Rosa Maria Mathew

OLYMPIAN FATHER

Hermes

SIBLINGS

She had a brother, but he died in a fatal car crash a few years ago.

PET

She has a pitbull named Chomper.

WEALTH STATUS

Ariana is on the poorer side of the class system. Not that she never had anything, but it was a struggle, and she worked very hard for what she had; she'd had the same job since she was fourteen.

HISTORY

Ariana's mother never told her how she met Hermes, so Ariana didn't know. But her mother had told her it was love at first sight, and Ariana knew it was true, mainly because it was so hard for her mother to talk about him. Her mother told her she was a demigod when the man she thought was her father, died; she was seven. She asked her mother about Hermes once, she remembered it clearly, it was on July 5th, her twelfth birthday. Her mother left the party crying, and came in her room at bed time to apologize, telling her it was too hard after he left, that he had no choice to leave, and she knew that from the minute she found out who he was, but she went through with it anyway; she hadn't known she was pregnant with Ariana when he left, so he didn't know either.

Ariana was born on July 5th, to Rosa Maria Mathew, and Chase Mathew. Her mother was an alcoholic, verbal abuser, and she told Ariana she would never amount to much. Chase had always been supportive of her. He was what made her mom bearable. He died when she was seven, taking her little brother with him. It was a terrible car accident that no one survived, and her mom only got worse after that point, more drinking, more beating and yelling. Finally tired of the bruises and the fear, Ariana tried to run away, but she knew what she was, she knew she wouldn't be accepted, no one knew what she was, a demigod, Chase hadn't even know. So she had returned home, counting down the days til she could leave. She got a job at eleven, cleaning stables at a local horse rescue shelter back home. She got the job to get out of the house, her grades never fell, they stayed high A's.

Ariana's grades never fell, she worked to hard for that, but she had started getting depressed, but she assumed it had to do with her mom, and Chase's death, but when her mom told her who her real dad was, the depression, the anger, odd things happening were "explainable" at least, that’s what her mom had told her. Ariana thought her mother blamed her for her father leaving, and that tortured Ariana the most; she could handle the abuse, the broken bones, the cuts, the bruises, the frequent trips to the hospital when her mother went to far, but she couldn’t handle being the cause of what was happening to her mother, she couldn’t stand being the reason her mother was deteriorating in front of her eyes..

It had been during winter break at Ariana's old school when they recieved the pamphlet. She didn't know how to react to it, she was scared to leave her life, all her friends, but it was an escape, her ticket away from her deranged mother. Of course Rosa was exctatic, any excuse to get Ariana off her hands was perfect. This was it, the answer to everyone's problems; so Ariana was on he next flight out, no more hiding, no more games, she was free to be who she was, with people like her.

She had been utterly horrified to start out at a new place, where she didn’t know anyone. She wasn’t sure anyone would like her, she wasn’t sure anyone would talk to her. She was happy to be away from her mom, but at what price? At least back home she had friends, here she didn’t know a single soul, she didn’t know what these people were like; she didn’t know if they would except her just because she was like them. It was now her senior year, three years she had been at this school, and it wasn’t what she thought at all, it was rather helpful, and exciting.

Ariana didn't even know that the nymphs existed. As for unnaturals didn't think she would treat them any different, it wasn't their fault, just like it wasn't her fault, people are who they are.

Ariana didn’t have a job, yet, but she planned on getting one. School was different, but she liked it, she liked fitting in, she never went home, she stayed at the school for holidays, and she never made contact with her mother. She still had straight A's and she was excited to atten the niversity after she graduated.

OTHER CHARACTERS

i don't have any on this site.

[RHIA EATS NEBULAS FOR LUNCH]

Hi there, Jen! Welcome to the site. There's just a few things we'd like you to fix up. It looks like you rushed the app a bit, and that's okay, but make sure you use the spell check button! Even I make mistakes in my posts! Here's a little list of things we'd like to see fixed:

• The spell check, of course.
  
• How did her brother die? Elaborate a bit in the childhood section of her history.
  
• All demigods/unnaturals/nymphs, start the school in their freshman year. (Grade 9.) So, she would have been going to the school for her entire high school life; not just starting senior year. (:
  
• Your display name. Must be all-caps, first middle last. So, ARIANA SERENITY MATHEW should be your display name. (:
