## History

### Early Life

Xenos Locris was born to Bia, goddess of force, power, might, bodily strength, and compulsion and Ajax The Lesser, Prince of Locris. Much like her sister, Nike, Bia was desperate for something. What exactly? Well to secure her legacy, making sure she has something there in the world just in case she ever faded (She was a minor goddess, I'm sure you could understand). And you may be asking how she would do that, we'll by having a child of course! Bia also faced the same problem as her sister, in which none of the gods were to her liking and she couldn't find a mortal that was just a strong as she was... that was until the Trojan War. While her sister Nike to Ajax the Greater as a brief partner, Bia found herself attracted to Ajax The Lesser. Bia gave strengths to soldiers on both sides of the war who needed it the most, trying to stay unbiased like Nike, but one day, she came across Ajax the Lesser, who she some what liked, admiring his bravery... just what she had been looking for. One night, Bia came to Ajax's tent and told him of her plan. At first, Ajax wasn't all that convinced, but did find the goddess of force very beautiful, but what really swayed him was that Bia promised to bless him with bodily strength to help him win the war if Ajax was willing to be with her. Ajax agreed, and the two spent the night together. In the morning, Bia had left, just a gods do, but did keep her end of the deal and gave Ajax the strength he would need. After a few days, Bia discovered she was going to have a child just as she had planned. Once her child was born, a son, she came to Ajax in a dream, showing him their new born son, and allowed him to name the baby. Ajax suggested the name Xenos, and Bia agreed that would fit. Bia promised to raise their son on Olympus until the war was over.

### Childhood

Xenos was raised On Olympus with his mother, who was fairly kind to him. Nike taught her son the joys and horror of battle, along with how to be a great hero, occasionally teaching him how to use a sword. He was also raised along side his maternal cousin, Isidoros, but the two didn't interact unless their mothers (Nike and Bia) had to. When Xenos was around twelve or thirteen, he had heard his mother had an argument with the god Poseidon, as Poseidon had drowned Ajax The Lesser (you know, his pops) out in the sea. Although Xenos didn't understand his mothers anger at the time, he did try to comfort his mother, which Bia appreciated.

### Immortal life

When Xenos was seventeen, he became immortal, as Bia was a bit of a protective mother towards her son. At the same time, his cousin Isidoros also became Immortal and they started hanging out a lot more, playing games with each other and showing each other their powers. The two would also have brief interactions with other demigods on Olympus like Damon, Adrian, and Cyrus. The pair heard of another demigod, a son of Enyo, but they hadn't met him since their mother's were on bad terms with the goddess of War. The pair would also go down to earth on multiple occasions to see other people play different sports and place bets on who would win, mainly Isidoros was always right. The two would sometimes get in trouble for sneaking to earth, but would one day discover they could *live* in the mortal world!

### Getting to Camp and Living on Earth

In the early 1980's Both Nike and Bia agreed to let their sons stay in the mortal world, so long as they be safe and contact them in case anything went wrong, which the boys agreed to. When they came to earth, the first thing they did was go to any local sports game and just watched the people play. Sometimes, they would little games for themselves, but to them it was fun just watching. The two would travel all around America, hanging out and exploring what the mortal world would have to offer. Sometimes, they would end up killing any monster what would try attack them. In the early 1990s, The pair came to California, and the two a group of people (who also happened to be children of characters from the Iliad) and created a group together. They would go around each state, having fun and killing any monster that would try to hurt them. Finally, in the early 2000s, they came across a camp for demigods in Big Bear, California. Once they all crossed the border, Xenos was claimed as a son of Bia, but had to stay in the Hermes cabin since the Bia cabin hadn't been built yet

## Personality

Scrappy, confident and utterly unpredictable, Xenos is not what you'd expect from an angel. A loose cannon, who marches to the beat of his own wings, Xenos is best known within the camp for his uncanny knack for finding the most easily provoked jerks in school to pick a fight with. Between his ever-present smirk and his taunting demeanor, he specializes in getting under people's skin. Wherever he goes, he brings with him a certain element of chaos, and many are wary of him because of this. In short, Xenos seems like a pretty poor excuse for a hero. Naturally relaxed, Xenos seems to take everything life throws at him in his stride. Nothing makes him lose his smile. He's extroverted and friendly, with a natural sense of confidence. He is always interested in what others are doing and always willing to encourage those who are feeling down. Unreserved and open, he is surprisingly quite likable. Because of this, a sizable number of people will also regard him, albeit cautiously, as a friend. Xenos is somewhat of a loose cannon. He does as he pleases, regardless of what anyone else has to say, and is thoroughly unpredictable. His mood and personality often fluctuate from person to person and situation to situation. He's decidedly independent, and rarely even acknowledges rules, let alone follow them. Trying to control Xenos is like herding cats, if those cats could fly. Regarded as a troublemaker by many, Xenos can be loud and insulting, enjoying messing with people who really shouldn't be messed with. He has gotten into more than his fair share of fights and made many enemies over the course of the year. Xenos has the ability to sense how good or evil someone is at any given moment. This isn't something he can switch off- rather it's a sense, much like smell or touch, and for Xenos it works on overdrive. This gives him an uncanny knack for sniffing out trouble, as well as an unfortunate ability to know exactly who to pick fights with. With a power like his it's pretty much impossible to not have a moral compass. Beneath his unconventional methods, Xenos has an incredibly strong sense of justice, and this drives a lot of his actions. Xenos feels the need to act on it a lot, almost compulsively. While Xenos may initially seem like a decent, if excitable person, his personality is often punctuated by a manic edge. He's always a little off, with dramatically polarized views and the firepower to back up whatever he hopes to do when he acts upon them. This is most obvious in settings with larger groups. Xenos’ ability to sense morality is something he's very easily overwhelmed by, particularly when there's large quantities of it. Xenos hates crowds for this very reason, and the strain shows in his demeanor, trying to act excessively friendly and normal to distract from the fact he's very much overwhelmed. However he tends to act out far more, with louder and more unpredictable actions hidden under a strained but delirious grin. In large crowds of people, his inability to separate individual moralities makes him prone to filtering out any and all ‘good’ he senses. Due to this he has highly ambivalent views on humanity. According to Xenos, mortals are utterly rotten and unsalvageable and being around them is physically painful. He finds the world to be such an utter mess that, if he were to be dramatic, the apocalypse was already upon it. He's not necessarily upset about it though, despite the hyperbole. He has an overwhelming desire to protect the weak. Attuned to morality, he tends to make special note of anyone who's vulnerable, stepping in if he senses they're having issues. This isn't necessarily appreciated given he doesn't particularly bother with tact or explanations. Additionally his tendency to befriend the 'bad crowd' and solve his problems with violence means his actions don't necessarily read as benevolent. Despite his complaints about the eroded morality of humanity, Xenos isn't exactly negative towards bad or morally gray people. Rather, he gravitates towards them, with an intense fascination. His tendency to come on strong, to put it politely, basically means that there is a fifty:fifty chance that any interaction will end in enmity or a wild mess of a friendship that no one wanted to happen. Xenos has low book smarts, but decent creative thinking. It's not immediately obvious because of his personality, but he actually does study and tries to do well in school. However he only really gets middling grades. His true passion in life lies in art. He is highly creative- or should I say destructive? The two go hand-in-hand. Everything Xenos takes joy in is in some way linked to creation- he makes art not merely out of love, but like an instinct, a natural part of living. Xenos is driven by inspiration, it's what motivates him to thrive. And of course in his eyes, destruction is an inextricable part of creation. Xenos revels in chaos. If something can be broken, if something can be deconstructed, he will break it twice over, and corrupt reality for good measure. Utterly fascinated with destruction, he's a pyromaniac, who loves ruining public property, through theft, physical damage or burning. He'll even utilize his powers to tear large holes in reality. Xenos sees the world as inherently chaotic and completely embraces that fact. By deconstructing things, he is merely giving it one last push into absurdity, so that other people can see it too. Jarringly, Xenos’ actions can be downright dangerous. He'll deliberately mess with traffic lights or roadworks in a way that simply seems thoughtless. However, even more horribly, they're carefully calculated to do harm. He rarely participates in outright attacks, but rather orchestrates situations that will directly or indirectly lead to it. In fact, under his quirky personality, Xenos has a completely cold, merciless side to him, reserved for those that he feels are truly beyond redemption. While he is still drawn towards these people, it is not in the friendly manner he approaches morally gray people with. Rather, he fixates on them and his thinking gains a new clarity created from disgust. While he acts friendly towards them, it is immediately obvious that it's nothing more than a hollow politeness. Xenos will actively harass these people to the point of destruction, whether self induced or not. Although out of context Xenos can seem incredibly violently cruel, he only ever targets these people. He'll try to minimize collateral damage. Because of his sensitivity to morality, a lot of Xenos’ demeanor is dependent on the company that he is in. When it comes to being around morally upright ‘good’ people, Xenos’ destructive urges drastically decrease, and he becomes far calmer. Without the polarized emotions, Xenos will begin to show a more benevolent side. Xenos finds 'good' people calming, even therapeutic to be around. He's far more willing to listen to them, or allow them to influence him, because being around them puts him in a more rational state of mind. Additionally, they're the kinds of people Xenos is least willing to lose the friendship of, which makes him more inclined to be co-operative. Xenos is pretty straightforward, and not especially secretive. Although he can be vague, confusing or on occasion simply refuse to say what he knows, he doesn't ever lie. It can be quite annoying to classmates as any specific question posed to him will get the exact answer in return. It isn't that Xenos is a bad liar, (although he is indeed an abysmal liar) but that he doesn't really see the need for lies. He's very honest, sometimes brutally so as he usually says what he thinks. Xenos has a bit of a naive quality that stems from his lack of worldly experience. He can seem a bit innocent and definitely has an enthusiasm that matches. However it's usually not really of significance, except for when people focus on it, in the hopes of exploiting it. When they try to appeal to it, Xenos will play along, reinforcing the misconception in people's minds. The more they do so, the more he will play to it. As such, those that try to manipulate him will consider him a rather easy target. He'll often keep up the pretense until the moment he's actively threatened, sometimes even after the moment, when he's already been hurt, then abruptly stop the act with a cold smile, flipping the balance of power his way. As far as he's concerned, if someone's taken the bait, they're worth messing with. Contrary to what people would assume, Virgil can be pretty philosophical. When alone, he is capable of contemplating life's big questions, often for hours at a time. Although he's perceived as a 'higher spirit', Xenos doesn't possess any particularly special knowledge or answers to life's big questions and this bothers him, to a degree. Xenos feels uneasy about not knowing his place in life, and this feeling has only gotten worse on earth, when other people are expecting him to answer that question on their behalf as well. Because of this Xenos actively avoids more serious conversations about morality, philosophy, or personal problems that need solving, refusing to participate in anything deep. This bothers some, who see him as flighty and unwilling to connect with them on a deeper level. True to his rebellious nature, Xenos doesn't take rules too well. Even when following a rule, he'll petulantly declare that he won't, or saying he only did it because it fits with his own moral code. He will also ingest strange objects or attempt strange stunts solely because he was told that it wasn't biologically possible. Although he always ends up worse for wear, he never regrets it. He seems to enjoy pushing the rules a lot, just to see what will happen, and he's ultimately amused by any outcome that happens. Safety is never factored into Xenos' decision making. He doesn't merely lack self preservation, but it isn't even a concept that ever pops into his head. He's cognizant that other people shouldn't be getting hurt, yes, but he isn't other people so he doesn't care. As far as Xenos' concerned, he has the ability to heal from anything, but that doesn't mean it won't hurt. Though he doesn't mind, other people certainly do. Once they have a reason to worry about him, it quickly becomes apparent that worrying about him is a full time job, because he is attracted to danger like a snake to the apple. Being friends with Xenos is not for the faint of heart. Of course that doesn't mean it doesn't have a strain on him long-term. Xenos struggles with severe brain fog, and memory problems, particularly when it comes to more intense memories. While he can deal with daily life alright for the most part, if anything changes from routine, he tends to forget it. He's missed many meetings, to Zoe’s annoyance.

### Fatal flaw

Like most Greek Heroes, Xenos' fatal flaw is Hubris, or deadly pride. He often boasts that he is very strong, but knows when to pick his battles

## Appearance

Much like Isidoros, Xenos, being the son of a great warrior and the goddess of bodily strength, he has an athletic and strong frame, though he isn’t as tall as his cousin. Xenos has curly black hair, tanned skin, and dark brown eyes. While living in Ancient Greece, he wore traditional clothing for that time period, but now at camp, he wears a dark blue sweater, a black shirt, black shorts, red shoes
