## Biography

### Early Life

#### Childhood

Faolan grew up in Aberfeldy, Scotland where he lived with his father, Robert Dunbar, and his two younger brothers, Adair and Tavish Dunbar. Faolan was bullied a lot during his childhood, something which his father never attempted to help him with, it reached a head when he was around 10 years old. At this age his demigod abilities had started to develop, not that him or his father knew that was happening, so that day when the bullies picked on him Faolan unleashed a plague to locusts to attack them.

The school contacted Robert who knew immediately what to do and rushed Faolan to the camp Cailleach had told him about. On the way they run into a Brollachan, as they stayed overnight, Faolan tried to fight it but it got the better of him and attacked him. Robert refused to stay and headed back home to Aberfeldy. Due to his closeness to the camp, the campers were able to rescue Faolan and heal him. Even 9 years later he still has the scars from the attack and usually walks with the aid of a staff gifted to him from his mother.

#### Time At Camp

It took a couple months for Faolan to fully heal but during that time rumours had already started to spread about the demigod who’d survived an attack from a Brollachan and seemed to still heal slowly even with ambrosia and nectar. The rumours of the demigod with red eyes and much more that even when he did finally leave the cabin everyone was staring and whispering.

One night about a week later when they were all around the campfire, a glowing white symbol appeared above his head. 3 sticks with 3 dots above. The symbol of Cailleach, Goddess of Winter, Cold and WInds, Pestilence and Disease or now known as Faolan’s mother.

That had truly been the final straw for the campers, Cailleach was accepted at the camp but it was rare to even for her to have children at least at the camp. So moving into his new cabin, Faolan decided to avoid the rest of the campers, go out while everyone was asleep to get food and train. If they wanted something to talk about he’d give it to them.

## Personality

Faolan Dunbar is very blunt, honest and quiet person. To those who don't know him he tends to appear grumpy and rude but he does have a soft spot for some of his friends in which he's more affectionate and kind. He’s very introverted, preferring to keep to himself.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

* **Winter Manipulation** - As Cailleach is also the goddess of winter, Faolan has a slight control over winter. This includes the ability to create blizzards when stressed or overwhelmed, and the ability to freeze a 6ft radius around them. Though this is controlled in tandem with his staff gifted to him by Cailleach.
* **Pestilence Manipulation -** Faolan can create, destroy and control diseases, this allows him to heal people from infections and disease but also infect them with it.
	+ **Plague Manipulation** - Similar to above this ability allows Faolan control over creatures that carry disease and plagues. E.g. Locusts, fleas and flies.
* **Hag Physiology** - Unknown to him, but Faolan has the ability to turn into a hag at will to hide.
* **Seer** - Faolan also has the ability to see events in the future, but only those related to the powers he inherited. So events caused by disease or winter.

### Abilities

* **Hand-To-Hand-Combat:** Despite not actively being involved with the Camp until recently, Faolan would sometimes go out during the night and train, so over the years he has become rather skilled in combat.

#### Weaknesses

* **Healers:** Due to the nature of his abilities, if Faolan is healed by traditional healers it causes him to grow weaker until he is either healed by someone with the same powers or he rides out the healed period.
* **His Leg:** When he first arrived at camp Faolan suffered a bad injury to his leg causing him to walk with a limp ever since, so if that if targeted during a fight he goes down pretty easily.
* **Socialisation:** Since Faolan tends to isolated himself, having to socialise with the rest of the camp takes a toll on him especially when its during the day.

## Equipment

* **Long White Staff:** Similar to the staff that Cailleach possess, Faolan has a staff that he uses to help him walk and also to help control his winter manipulation power.
