Nick Saint

**Caerwyn Nick Saint** is the twenty-one year old Roman demigod son of Aquilon and Josephine Saint and ancestral legacy of both Somnus and Mors. He is a major POV character in the *Ocean Winds* series. He is the former Centurion of the Second Cohort and current member of the New Rome Senate and Cohort Two Tribune member.

## History

### Early Life

Born to Aquilon and a mortal new anchor mother in England, Caerwyn was a great surprise. For the first few years everything seemed well, but soon things would turn sour as Nick’s mother died in a car crash when he was 7 years old. After that, it was only the boy, his sister and his grandmother; Dorothy Saint. Feeling the hurt his older sister felt with losing their mother and Nick’s step-father, Nick always tried his best to cheer them up and make them forget about the negatives and only focus on the positives as much as possible. Though the family wasn’t the most well off in terms of money, Caerwyn and his sister were able to do activities that they enjoyed, Nick’s being horse riding. He couldn’t explain it but something inside him called to be on the move, guided by an animal. This being the case, the boy made sure to be the best in the saddle, no matter who he was riding with. Due to losing parents, Nick and his sister became closer, and after a month of only really having each other for comfort, they were inseparable. The two were practically joined at the hip, even when their respective friend groups tried to shame them for it, either not understanding or having a far different and more hate filled relationship with their siblings.

### The Shadow

When Caerwyn turned 13 years old, his grandmother took Nick and his sister on holiday to California, though Nick hated how warm it was. It soon all came to an end when an unknown figure dressed in all black bandage-like clothes appeared. The figure introduced itself as The Shadow as it raised it’s sword and pointed at the boy’s grandmother, stating she must die first. And die first she did, the figure seemed to just appear next to Dorothy as it’s blade was brought down, sending the elderly woman to her knees. Looking up at her grandson, Dorothy never shed a tear, just as her father taught her when she was just a little girl, the woman only gave an encouraging nod to Nick and his sister before falling, dead. Next was Caerwyn’s sister, just like their grandmother, the “Shadow” struck the girl down, though quicker this time. The young girl seemed to just drop, as if she never lived at all. Instead of just killing Nick just as quickly as his grandmother, The Shadow taunted him, calling him tainted and a disgrace, all of which made no sense to Caerwyn. After a few minutes, the figure seemed to get bored and went to strike again, this time slower, almost as if he was savouring the kill he was about to get, but as it brought it’s blade down, a wolf appeared, lunging at the figure and grappling it to the floor. As the wolf fought off the figure, three more wolves appeared, two going to help the first wolf while one ran up to Nick and escorted him away from the area. At first Nick was distraught, first he lost his mother and now his grandmother. Then he was brought to a strange country for what his grandma said would be a nice get away, only for her to die along with his sister and then be left alone.

### The Wolf House

After an explanation, some time to calm down and a nice little claiming where the symbol of Aquilon appeared above Nick’s head, the son of the North understood. Due to Lupa’s kind of training, Nick trained hard and did his utmost to understand as much as he could about Roman culture. While he gained many bruises, cuts and scars from his time with Lupa, Caerwyn never gave up, the injuries only ever pushing him to be better, so he didn’t get eaten or anything. It took Caerwyn three years to prove himself a competent soldier by Lupa’s standards, though it was a long and difficult road to tread. The boy was sent to Camp Jupiter rather quickly, almost as if the wolves wanted to be rid of him as quickly as possible, though they weren’t that mean right? Either way, when Nick arrived and got situated in the Probatio barracks, the boy wanted to explore and make friends. It was a new city, which meant new adventures. Sadly Nick only found one of the things he was looking for, and that was not friendship. The city of New Rome was far different than he was used to and it seemed harder to fit in.

## Personality

Nick is a laid back kind of person, focussing on the fun side of life rather than anything serious, as a way to hide from the grief he has been suppressing for years. For the most part, Caerwyn has a solid grasp on his emotions, allowing him to only show what he wants people to know. Though he might not show all his emotions, Nick is quite quick to anger or at the very least annoy, especially when trying to force him to confront reality. Due to his father being a winter god, Caerwyn loves the cold and misses the rain and winds of England. As most are these days, Nick is pretty nerdy, though he doesn’t usually let people know as he can be rather untrusting with information regarding himself. While he loves fun more than anything, even Nick dislikes people who put it above safety, he’s dumb, not stupid after all.

## Appearance

Caerwyn has pale white skin, short, brown hair and ice blue eyes. He also seems to have a twinkle in his eye that his mum always compared to the North Star. Nick has slight stubble upon his face, the faintest trace of a beard able to be seen. Caerwyn often keeps his hair windswept, never brushing it for any reason as he feels it’s a waste of time as it will just get messed up again anyway, whether due to the wind or just sleeping. Nick is often in a red jacket, white shirts, dark trousers and black boots, though this can vary from time to time when he wants to mix it up. Caerwyn also has a butterfly with an 8 pointed star birthmark on the back of his neck.
