## History

### Early Life

Daniel Jefferson, or DJ was born to Laverna, goddess of thieves, cheats and the underworld and Roman Jefferson, a clear sighed mortal in Richmond, Virginia on February 8, 2004. Jeanne was the oldest in the Jefferson family and when she was three, her little sister, Coraline was born and their father got a promotion in Virginia, where he and his wife were from, so they moved there. After three years, their triplet siblings, Paul, Roman, and Harriet were born. They grew unknown of the Greek world since they were mortals, except for the clear-sighted Coraline and Paul, and they eventually grew up and their lives were different directions. Roman was the rebellious one in the family, after dropping out of high school, he slept around and took drugs. After his siblings, Paul and Harriet graduated, he found a job at a DVD shop where he met Laverna. After she left, he sobered up and started caring about his life so he worked hard to raise Daniel which was born before she left.

### Childhood

When he was just 2, Roman met another goddess in the guise of a normal, mortal lady and fell in love for her. This eventually led to another affair in which she gave birth to the twins, Leo and Kasey. After that she left them. Roman raised them up good and let them attend a nice school. Daniel always bugged his dad on where was his mom or what happened to her. He said that she left them, which was half-true and in which Daniel obviously believed. By the 6th grade, During middle school, his cellphone addiction began and at early high school his game addictions began. He was always at the house, playing games or talking/texting on the phone. His grades began to lower but not to the point he failed, which was a good thing. He also got in a bad crowd and were always out late but he later cleaned up his issues, except for his game and phone addiction. He was popular with the girls but one got to the point she was stalking him around the school.

### First Monster Appearance

One day, Daniel was going to the comfort room when the stalker girl barged in and turned into a harpy. Since he was a demigod, the harpy can smell his blood.His only possession with him at the time was his bag so he used it to attack the harpy. Seeing that the harpy is still not gonna back down, he mimicked the moves of the characters in his video games like jabs, uppercuts and forward kicks which was pretty good, considering he played video games for too long. The harpy stumbled to the ground, being knocked off with his attacks. Actually, his ADHD helped him in fighting the harpy. While the harpy was trying to recover, he took the chance to run away and sped home to tell Roman everything that happened.

### Coming to Camp

Meanwhile, Roman was asleep at the time. When he was asleep, he had a dream. His lover told him to bring him to Camp Olympia and leave him when something attacks him. When he woke up, Daniel was there, trying to wake him up. He told him what happened at school. Seeing that his ex-lover's requests was true, he brought him to Los Angeles. But he wasn't sure where it is so he asked for directions but the people she asked said that there is no Camp Olympia in the place so he decided to take him home. Suddenly, a hell hound appeared out of the forest and locked its eyes on them. When it was about to attack them, an arrow pierced the hell hound and left for dead. His dad ran away out of fright, not knowing Daniel is still there. Daniel froze in fright too and couldn't catch up to his dad when a satyr appeared. The satyr was the one who shot the arrow. He asked some questions about him and sensed that he was a demigod so he invited him to Camp Olympia. At first he couldn't believe it because they thought it wasn't real but judging from the satyr, it was real so finally he agreed. But he thought about his dad but ignored the thought. He followed the satyr and ended up at Camp Olympia, where he was claimed by his mother. Shortly afterwards, his younger twins also made it to camp, and where claimed by Spes, goddess of hope

## Personality

Daniel is a number of things. For one, he is incredibly cunning, using his skills to get himself out of any situation. Also, as the son of the goddess of thieves, he is a thief, stealing things from his friends, but usually all in good fun. Like The Hermes Kids, Daniel is a mischievous kid, who plays pranks on his friends. Daniel is a tricker. He loves to cause mayhem and pull pranks on his fellow friends, a truly great passion of his. Because of this nature, Daniel can be a tiny bit of an idiot at times, and can pull a joke in serious situations, sometimes making him a nuisance to be around. Daniel likes to throw his jokes into weapons, showing a slight creativity. Daniel is insanely loyal and close to his friends. While willing to live, he'd sacrifice himself for those he appreciates and loves. He loves the Choir with all his heart, despite being sassy and a smart butt. He loves to roast his friends, making jokes that may insult them. He loves to annoy them, and enjoys sometimes making inside jokes public. Impulsive and a bit stubborn, at times, Daniel jumps into situations. Still, he thinks a lot, and is easily annoyed at people who are dumb and ridiculous. Daniel speaks his mind, and isn't afraid to get into trouble from others. He's also very defensive of people he doesn't know, and sometimes, if needed, one to stop bullying. Daniel can also be social, making friends easily. Sure, they may get annoyed by his Marvel jokes indeed, but he always tries to lighten the mood. Sometimes he succeeds, sometimes he doesn't. But still, Daniel is a jokester and trickster naturally. When someone close to him dies, Daniel can grieve for a long time. Even if he didn't like them, Daniel can get miserable at one's death. Daniel is also sarcastic at times. Daniel is known to be quick, both with words and on his feet, getting his friends and himself out of trouble fairly easily. Daniel is a fantastic storyteller with a great sense of humor. Loud and often boisterous, he is the life of the party-- he can make anything interesting, even a story about something as simple as going to buy groceries (though at times, he stretches the truth to do so). He is highly expressive, with a seemingly boundless energy and one of the heartiest laughs there ever was. Though he sometimes takes his jokes a step too far, he never does so with intentional malice-- he only ever seeks to entertain people or make them laugh. He's a game addict. He won't have a day without touching either his Nintendo Switch or PS4 and play for hours. When playing, he's having mood swings. One second you see him so happy and the next you see him cursing when his character dies. He's also a cellphone addict, talks or texts with his friends when or when not playing. He's not the flirty type and puts effort on getting to know a girl better (\*cough\* Hannah \*cough\*). He's also laid back and pretty naive. Being the big brother, he still has responsibility over his younger siblings but since they're 14 already, he ignores much of their activities. Daniel is also very good a making potions, and normally uses his friends as test subjects, to which they are afraid of. Overall, Daniel is a good person.

### Fatal flaw

Daniel's fatal flaw is his silver tongue. Sure, it's great for getting out of sticky situations or when he wants something, but he uses this for his own gain, and this often leads him to be very greedy at times.

## Appearance

Daniel is described to look similar to Markell, as a young bi-racial seventeen year old boy. He has the same shoulder length curly brown hair and tanned skin, but hazel eyes rather than the brown ones Markell has. Daniel is often seen wearing a dark purple jacket, a gray-purple shirt, black jeans, and gray sneakers.
