## History

### Early Life

Ophelia Pena was born to Hera, Queen of Olympus, Goddess of Marriage, motherhood, women, and familial love, and Alexander Pena, a clear sighted mortal on August 4, 1999. Five years after her birth, her younger sister, Aubrey, was born on November 28, 2004 and four years later, Hera came back as Juno and had her little brother James. Hera had met Alexander while wandering the streets of Salem to clear her head over Zeus’ constant shenanigans and cheating. She sat on a bench, looking very stressed. Alexander awkwardly sat down next to her and tried to comfort her. Hera found this very generous and the two began talking and Hera found herself having a crush on the mortal One day before going to see him, she figured if Zeus can cheat on her, so can she. Once she went to visit Alex, he asked the goddess out and the two began secretly dating. After a few dates, Hera had found out she was going to have a baby. Alexander was very happy to find out she was pregnant but Hera was nervous, Hera explained that she was a goddess and the baby couldn’t know about their godly heritage, after she had the child she left, but before she did, she and Alex named her Ophelia. Five years later, Hera managed to come back and she and Alex had Aubrey. Four years later, Hera came back as Juno and took care of the newborn baby James and the two girls.

### Childhood

Because Ophelia was the oldest, she was parentified at a young age. Her father was a movie star, she often had to watch her younger siblings. As a child, Aubrey loved playing dress-up, often as a superhero, a queen, or a princess. She would often help her dad pick out costumes for his movies. He would let Aubrey pick out her outfits at a young age and was very loving. However, with Alexander being a movie star, he was often busy and didn’t pay much attention to Ophelia, Aubrey, and James. When she was six, Aubrey would often sneak into her dad’s room and take things like his phones, making her very stealthy, something that would help her later in life. After she takes a few things, she’ll hide them and she and her dad would spend time looking for the things she took, her father not knowing it was her who hid them. The two sisters would also force their brother to play with dolls or dress up with them, which, though James wouldn’t admit, really loved it. Aubrey and Ophelia would also wander her very big house in Oregon playing pretend, imagining monsters, villains and heroes. Ophelia made friends with the kids in her neighborhood and they would often go to each other's houses to play

### Meeting Ryan Anderson

One day, when Ophelia was fourteen, Aubrey was nine and James was five, Alexander said they were going on a vacation to California by cruise. Ophelia knew her sister was excited to use her new swimsuit. Once on the boat, after finding the room the family would be staying in, she wandered off to the main deck where there was a pool and lots of people laying around. She walked for a bit before bumping into a boy with brown hair and orange eyes. The boy introduced himself as Ryan Anderson. He was with his sister and the two became good friends instantly. She went back to her room and told her dad about her new friends. On the second day of The Pena Family Vacation, Aubrey had taken James and Ophelia to meet The Anderson siblings. The whole vacation, Aubrey and Ryan played and explored the ship while her dad had his “me time.” As they were exploring, Ryan told Aubrey about his home life and said once he and his sister got off the boat. Aubrey told Ryan about her dad being a movie star. Once the two families got to California, Ryan said his goodbyes to his new friend and he and his sister went on their way. She didn’t know when she would see them again and she would look for him, to no success

### Moving and Getting to Camp

A year after her vacation (Ophelia is 15, she's ten and her brother is six), and returning home to Oregon, her father told his children that he was offered to star in a movie, which was being filmed in California. While there she was at school she was often picked on for being Native American and was asked by other kids if she would do The Rain Dance. Her brother and sister also got heavily bullied by other students and Aubrey often got in trouble trying to defend her brother along with trying to defend herself. Oftentimes, Aubrey’s dad had to come to take her and James out of the office when they were in trouble to take them home. When she was nine, she would move around a lot due to bullying and she was kicked out of school, three times in the same school year. During the summer of third grade, Ophelia and she were playing with James in the yard while their dad was filming the movie. They heard a very loud growling noise. They turned and thought it was a very large dog which was a hell hound. In a panic, Ophelia took Aubrey and James out of the yard and she ran.

The Hell Hound chased them for hours but the two managed to hide in a bush in a park and once the Hell Hound was gone. The siblings stepped out of the bush and Aubrey heard a whisper not knowing it was her mother and the voice told her to go into the woods and she would find a special camp for kids like them. Aubrey was a bit skeptical but did what the voice said.The three walked for about three hours and they made it to the Camp borders. The three were found by Melody who brought them to the infirmary to heal their wounds. After that, Zoe came in and said they would be staying in the Hermes cabin. About a week later, the three siblings were claimed by Hera which much like Leilani and Emily calming shocked all of the camp as Hera has never cheated on Zeus. Zeus had threatened to kill Hera’s children however Hera objected saying if he did, she would step down as Queen of Olympus so Zeus agreed to not kill them, letting them live, though he really hated it and greatly disliked them and often called them “Bastard children”. Ironic isn’t it? I mean Sky God Zeus is always cheating yet Hera can cheat on him? Unfair

## Personality

Ophelia is said to act a lot like her mother. Ophelia is said to be a caring, polite, and empathetic woman who cares for lost children and her family. However, Ophelia can act recklessly, often acting with emotions rather than thoughts. She is noted to be kind and caring to the other campers. Being a daughter of Hera, she cares strongly for the people she loves. She was the first to hear about the death of Zamaya and was the one to deliver the message to her cousins. In The Third Story, she tells people not to look at her, and Astra Stardust replies saying, "A daughter of Hera who doesn't wish to be looked at?" Ophelia gets up from her chair, presumably to confront Astra but is restrained by her siblings This shows that she can speak out and stick up for herself, and does not merely stand by and do nothing. She, like her younger sister, had inherited the power of charm speak, only using it to tease her siblings or in times of need. She has also shown to have inherited her mother’s infamous temper. If there’s one way to describe Ophelia, it’s oldest child syndrome. Ophelia is a modest young lady, forever polite to those around her, rarely losing her temper. And though she’s not shy, Ophelia always waits for someone else to initiate conversation, unless she wishes to break the tension or she’s with her closest companions. As a princess, Ophelia is fully aware of the new craze, regularly participating in the new trends. Though not someone who creates trends herself, Ophelia tends to be the first person to do them, regularly searching through Instagram to find out which new craze she’ll commit to. In the loosest terms, Ophelia is a trendsetter. But, she’s plain. She’s average. Her followers are big, but she’ll never top Cora Williams. She’s attractive, but compared to other royalty, she doesn’t stand out. And when she does, it’s for not being as pretty as the rest. In her myth, she’s the oldest child. She’s not the middle or youngest, who’s far more better looking then she’ll ever be, and the next Hera is…. Well, the next Hera. Maybe that’s why she’s so envious. She wants what she can’t have. Ophelia wants a destiny where she won’t die, but does anyway. Ophelia wants to be pretty, but she’ll be as pretty as the rest. Ophelia wants to be important, but she’s just the oldest child. Sure, she helps her sister have Hera’s trust in her husband broken, but compared to the conflict between Hera and many other deities, Ophelia is nothing but a footnote. Sometimes, she just feels like the world gave her the biggest middle finger and left Ophelia to deal with the scraps life gave her, all by herself. Ophelia wants an identity outside of ‘evil older sister’, so she tends to cling to the slightest thing that makes her happy. Whether it’s a place she likes to shop at, or a band Ophelia’s into, or perhaps that one TV show, Ophelia can’t help but fall into the rabbit’s hole of content, just so she can feel like she’s a contributing member of something. But no matter what she does, Ophelia is always just average. Because she’s not important, she’s not a major character, she’s not Hera she’s not- She’s just…..there. She’s nothing. Ophelia’s biggest wish is to be something. She knows her jealousy is bad, but she can’t help but want more. Her spite is Ophelia’s biggest weapon, and she forever feels like the green eyed monster. Ophelia wants to be seen, and not just ‘the oldest child who hates Hera’. She wants to be Ophelia. She wants to be seen for herself. Sometimes, Ophelia thinks her biggest strength is her ability to lie. What she says can be incredibly persuasive, and Ophelia knows how to fabricate reality under her falsehoods. She knows how to weave words, how to create false herrings, and how to pretend. To pretend that she's genuine, to pretend that she's not, to pretend that she believes in herself. But, when the days are better, and when her thoughts aren’t swallowing her whole, Ophelia is, at the end, still a teenage girl. She goes along with the antics of others, and is always happy to lift them up. She’s forgiving, giving out second chances with little regret, and always looks for the better in others. Even her god forsaken older sibling is something she can tolerate, and hangs out with them with little second thoughts on her terrible choices. Always looking to end arguments with a compromise, Ophelia is a peacemaker, often being the one to support her friends when no-one else will. Though she can come across as someone who enables toxic behaviors, once she finds out, Ophelia will have no hesitation when it comes to calling them out of their dumb decision. Unfortunately, Ophelia glosses over these traits of camaraderie, still finding herself unimportant. Ophelia wants to be seen, and she wants to be more than where the world decided to put her. She preaches about not letting others or your place in the system get to you, but struggles to follow her own advice. And though she may not know it, in the eyes of her friends, Ophelia is indeed something, someone that matters.
