## History

### Early Life

Athanasia Ithaca was born to Athena, goddess of wisdom, reason, crafts, weaving, war, strategic war, battle strategy, courage, law, justice, strength, inspiration, and civilization and Odysseus, king of Ithaca, only a few days after Odysseus begun his journey home. Athena had grown close to Odysseus over the course of the war, almost seeing him as a friend. Over the course of the war and their friendship, their combined wisdom and minds created a child, a daughter. One night, just after Odysseus left Troy, Athena came to him, holding their daughter. Athena explained how she was created and Odysseus was over joyed, having been missing his own son for the past ten years, and immediately offered to take the baby, but Athena refused. Athena explained that Odysseus' journey might be long and hard, and she didn't want their child to be endangered. Instead, Athena would take the baby and keep it with her, until Odysseus got home. Odysseus agreed, seeing it as the safer option, but before Athena left, Athena did let Odysseus name their daughter. The baby was given the name "Athanasia", **immortality**. After leaving, Athena found a small island, just off the coast of Ithaca, where only a few nymphs lived. Athena left Athanasia with the nymphs for them to raise.

### Childhood

Athanasia's life on the island was... uneventful to say the least. She was raised by a group of water nymphs, who she would come love as her family. They taught her basic things like languages and walking and all that. As she grew, they also taught her how to survive while living there, teaching her how too kill and cook the fish in the ocean. When she was a toddler, Athena warned the nymphs to not let Athanasia go to deep into the ocean, since Odysseus had angered Poseidon, and if Poseidon had found out Odysseus had a daughter, Athanasia would be killed. As Athanasia grew up, she began longing to leave the Island, at most going knee deep into the water, but she always obeyed the nymphs order and not go into the water. By the time Athanasia was around 10 or 11 years old, Odysseus had returned home, but Athena never brought Athanasia to her father and she would remain on the Island for many, many years, never meeting her father and never seeing him before he died While living there, her mother would often visit, just to see how she was doing and making sure she was living well. Also, whenever Athena would visit, she would teach her daughter of her powers and how to use a weapon. When she was fifteen, she was given two weapons, a silver spear and a bow.

### Gaining Immortality

When Athanasia was seventeen, she gain immortality from her mother. By the time she was seventeen, Athanasia was desperate to get off, determined to see the rest of the world. Using some wood and leaves, Athanasia crafted a raft, ready to set out on the open seas. But, the nymphs warned her, saying that the seas could be dangerous, but Athanasia dismissed their warnings. When she set off, she was met with an unforgiving sea, causing a storm, and bringing her back to the island. As she was launched from the draft...she began to drown. The nymphs found her and did the best they could to heal her, but some of her wounds were fatal, and they prayed to Athena for help. When Athena got there, was prepared to scold her daughter for not listening to the nymphs, but when she saw Athanasia barley breathing...she panicked. Athena healed all of her daughters wounds and in the process, made Athanasia immortal... never aging or dying, but she could still get hurt. When Athanasia woke up, Athena hugged her, crying and making sure she was okay. Athanasia said she was fine, and promised to never get off the island ever again

### Getting of The Island

About a thousand years had went by, and Athanasia had stayed on the Island, not knowing what been going on for the past thousands of years. One day, her mother came to the island to inform Athanasia, she could *leave* the island. Athanasia was in shook...She was able to leave the island! She took her mother's hand and was taken to America (1800s time) and was told to try and keep hidden from the world, which Athanasia would do. Before leaving Athanasia asked who her father, was, as she had been wondering for a *very* long time. Athena then told her daughter who her father was. The King of Ithaca himself,

### Meeting Phoebus and Eustace

Athanasia had been wandering America, and the year was 1910. While walking down the street, she bumped into two boys. One with curly brown hair and glasses, and a taller one with dark skin and black hair. They introduced themselves as Phoebus Pax and Eustace Mizéria. Athanasia, realizing her two new friends had "last names" became Athanasia Ithaca, honoring her father's kingdom.

### Getting to Camp

The three quickly became close with each other and began to travel around American with each other, meeting other demigods (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. Athanasia was claimed as a daughter of Athena, while her friends in the Hermes cabin, since their parent's cabin weren't built and neither was Cabin Mythos

## Personality

Athanasia is just a wonder. She's a mix of both her parents, getting her wisdom from her mother and her cunningness from her father. She is highly imaginative, loyal, emotional, sympathetic, persuasive, kind, generous, practical, supporting, loving, brave, passionate, stubborn, slightly strict, cheerful, caring, benevolent, chivalrous, cunning, clever, sweet, slightly sassy, and a true friend. She does, however, have excessive pride or hubris. She also hates homework or anything that drags her down. She also sometimes talks before thinking. She can be playful or mischievous when the time calls for it. She loves freedom and is a natural born sailor. She is also quite attached to the ocean, even though her father's accidental enemy was Poseidon and she has a small fear of the ocean. She will also use sailing language, such as using 'port' and 'starboard' instead of left and right. She can fight with a sword, a dagger, or a bow and arrows. She is also quite loving. She loves her friends and her siblings, and is afraid to lose them. She also has a hatred for staying in one place for too long since she grew up on an island for most of her life. She has great pride in being the princess of Ithaca (despite never getting to go there) and tries to live up to her parents' (well mother's) expectations of being a great hero. As the princess of Ithaca, Athanasia is everything a princess would want to be and more. Her presence is so great that all talk stops when she speaks, and her word is taken on any subject. She is a fine noblewoman, trained to the highest degree and hardly anyone would wish to defy her. Queenly, noble and regal - she is utterly perfect. She has to be. She doesn't really have a choice. Everyone from Greece to Rome can agree on one thing and that's that Athanasia just loves keeping to herself. She scarcely speaks to anyone beyond her family, and has thus become an entire mystery on her own. Those who are lucky enough to be graced with her speech are often met with satirical remarks. Of course, though, most of the school just see her as another busy figure of nobility; Athanasia is a young hero after all. What she does in her free time is nothing to worry about. How much harm can an innocent damsel do, anyway? Turns out, a lot actually. Beneath her aloof facade, Athanasia is as loud and rowdy as her fellow Heroes. She is fueled on rage and rage alone, always on edge and ready to brawl. To say she is pugnacious is an understatement - the girl would take down the school on her own if she had to. Unfortunately, Zoe has placed very strict orders on the group so the most they can do is raid the New Athens stores. Her recklessness and impulsivity has gotten her in trouble with both Zoe and the local authorities but she always manages to excuse herself every time. Other than that, Athanasia is certainly capable and willing to fight over what's right. She doesn't need to affirm her power through conversation; if she gives you the look you know you're dead. And let's not forget her father's influence on her, despite them never really meeting. Athanasia is composed of the most sarcastic essence of Odysseus, complete with the witty comebacks and dry humor. She prefers to look on the more realistic (leaning pessimistic) side of life and knows when to push a dream or two back. Albeit, those dreams aren't necessarily... hers. Despite this, Athanasia scarcely shows this side of her, masking it with a more sophisticated persona. As the representative of her kingdom she must conceal her salt and, instead, repress it for when her myth commences. Alas, Athanasia is certainly no bitch. Her inner core is derived entirely from the concept of a just world where everyone lives fairly. This sentimental attachment to humanity has taken quite a toll on her life, often being guided by the thought of helping others. Her father's tale of tragedy, thrill and, most importantly, camaraderie had latched itself onto her. She wanted to be a good person. And not just a social justice warrior on the internet who makes call out posts, but someone who actually did something. Anything. What was the point if her words didn't influence any change? Shouldn't her actions have consequences for themselves? Athanasia has made it her life goal to answer her questions and to leave her mark in the process, and not just as the forgotten princess of Ithaca who was stuck on some island.

### Fatal flaw

Athanasia has two fatal flaws. Hubris, or deadly pride, a very common thing for an Athena kid and recklessness. Athanasia can often act or say things with out thinking, which gets her in trouble a lot

She is described with wavy brown hair with white streaks (she has poliosis), smooth light tanned skin, and unlike her siblings, has sea-foam green eyes. On her island, she wore a white Greek dress that went down to her knees and Greek sandals, but she now wears a casual white high low dress dress, teal/green sweater and black or mint green combat boots.
