## History

### Early Life

Skylark Elisian was born to Endymion, Prince of Elis and Selene Titaness of the moon, lunar cycle, insanity & radiance in Elis, Greece. Now, all of us *should* know about how Selene and Endymion met, however, because I need to add words to this, I'm just gonna recount the myth here. The moon goddess, Selene, fell in love with the mortal Endymion. Endymion is said to be a shepherd, a hunter, or a king (In my version he's both a hunter and a king). Selene visited her sleeping love in the night as she rode her moon chariot across the night sky. She would come down to earth just to be with the beautiful Endymion. Selene wished to be with Endymion forever so she asked Zeus to grant her lover eternal sleep so that she may visit him every night. Other translations claim that it was Endymion’s choice to remain unchanged and forever asleep. Selene then proceeded to have fifty children (In the words of Red "Whoa! Not cool lady, he's asleep!"

### Childhood

Skylark was the 25th child of Selene and Endymion and the only boy of the family, as a child he was forced to grow up quickly due to the neglect he received. Sure, The Menai (His sisters) would become immortal goddess over the lunar months, they were still children. Skylark had to look after 25 younger sibling while Selene is at her moon chariot or 'spending time' with Endymion who is asleep all the time. Skylark often tried to find ways to wake Endymion up, but all the attempts failed, he learned rather quickly that you can't reverse Zeus' magic. As Skylark grew up, he got into many arguments with his mother. She said to look at someone's perspective for a change and not to put himself first it was expert manipulation for him to do such things for Selene's amusement. As Skylark grew up, Selene realized he was more demigod than immortal like his sisters and wanted him to be like her and thus subjected her to 'training' which of course involves the sleeping Endymion. This resulted in a shattered relationship between the two as Skylark refused to do so as Endymion was his father and that it would be incest, but he was forced to go through this brutal 'training' many times. When Skylark was seventeen years old, Selene blessed her son with immortality, but he never became a full on god like his sisters, but he would never die or age

### Immortal Life

Skylark hating living his mother and sisters. He was always left alone after his sisters became goddesses. All of his sisters left Selene and Endymion's life, escaping their neglectful lives, but as a consequence, they left Skylark behind. Because Skylark was forever seventeen, he continued living with his parents. As the years went by, things gradually came to a stop. Selene would slowly stop "training" Skylark (though that didn't stop his trauma) and she only became more neglectful. She go out at night, and even when she was home, Skylark was ignored by Selene. He would often go to Endymion's room to "talk" to his father (Which was really just Skylark having a one sided conversations with his father) or he would often just remain his own room, silent and sorta just contemplating the quiet comprehension of the ending of it all. During the early 1900s, Skylark decided to follow in his sisters' foot steps and leave

### Coming to Camp

Skylark came to earth with nothing to his name. Many people would stare at him for his weird clothing, but then an nice older man offered to by him some new clothing. Skylark agreed and one shopping trip later, Skylark was dressed in modern (Or what ever clothing they had for the early 1900s) and was off on his way. While living on the streets, Skylark would learn to use his powers by himself and learning to defend himself from monsters. Using a silver spear he stole from his father, he became skilled at fighting monsters. After a while in the early 2000s, a satyr found Skylark while he was in California and took him to Camp Olympia. Skylark was claimed a the son of Selene but he had to stay in the Hermes cabin until Cabin Mythos was built

## Personality

Though Endymion is not a sleep god, Skylark is just as lazy and as sleepy like a Hypnos kid. Seemingly unconcerned with temporal matters, Skylark flies through life without a care in the world. He's somehow able to maintain a perpetual state of composure and relaxation on his exterior, which often perplexes others. Many will find Skylark’s unwavering calmness shocking, but those who have found themselves in Skylark’s presence will know that he is truly in a constant state of existential crisis and personal dread. However, it's extremely rare for individuals to see Skylark as anything but a person who is unbothered by most things. But of course, how else could an individual find themselves in such a state of tranquility? It's as if Skylark But of course, how else could an individual find themselves in such a state of tranquility? It's as if Skylark himself is a foundation for the wall he's built around himself—a wall he uses as a façade to shield himself away from judgment from others. Truly, he is very insecure at heart, and holds on to a somewhat immature fear of being judged harshly by others. On the outside, others may interact with him briefly and think nothing of it. On the outside, however, millions and millions of thoughts spawn inside Skylark’s head. All those thoughts having to do with the small interactions he'd have with other individuals. Skylark has an inclination for over-thinking the smallest, most minute details. Every conversation and interaction with another individual leads him down a familiar experience with his own mind; an experience with similarities to two armies clashing with each other in war. Unbeknownst to others, under Skylark’s calm façade, he's constantly battling with his own mind. With the mention of Skylark’s mind, one must not underestimate his brilliance and overall intelligence. He's no stranger to showing off what his mind is capable of, particularly when the situation pertains to seeing through other people's walls and reading others as if they're a novel. Still, his mind remains a jumbled mess (much like he is). While he's often surrounded by his false wall of seemingly unwavering composure and relaxation, Skylark isn't shy to the idea of expressing his own streak of rebellion (particularly against figures of authorities, or just people he simply dislikes). Others may know Skylark as "an incredibly chill dude", but at the same time one can't ignore how trouble seems to trail behind him like a companion he keeps with him at all times. He certainly has a knack for committing pranks whenever he sees fit. Oftentimes he crosses the line between practical jokes and actual crimes that could land him in prison, but obviously he's smart with his pranks and only aims to land himself in detention at worst (fun fact: he's managed to get himself banned from the baseball field one time). Skylark's disposition of composure and relaxation often leads to others believing that he is an "indifferent" and even a "cold" person. While it's true that Skylark can initially come off as "indifferent" and "cold", it certainly seems foolish to assume he doesn't have a passion for at least something (which is truly what people have thought about him). Skylark often shocks others when he demonstrates the brilliance his mind is capable of, as well as his inclination for learning and gathering knowledge of all sorts—facts from textbooks, lessons pertaining to his interests, and most importantly, gossip! Though he usually never seeks out gossip actively, all the juicy details tend to find their way to him, one way or another. He's trained himself to be observant and pay close attention to what others say. At the end of the day, he often ends up being in possession of other people's secrets and having knowledge of their antics. But of course, Skylark has no use for those secrets and would never involve himself in anything related to blackmail. He's not a prick, or at least he tries not to be. Another major element of Skylark’s façade is the sunny disposition he's able to maintain. He's rather cheerful and finds amusement in playful jokes and jests. His bright smile matches the energy he radiates. Interestingly enough, many other individuals know that his sunny disposition is fictitious and part of his façade, yet they find a form of comfort in his faux cheeriness. Still, there's a slight feeling of unnerve that one can feel from Skylark’s sunny disposition. It's rather perplexing how easily he's able to continue maintaining his sunny disposition, despite others knowing it's clearly a façade. Many people speculate heavily when it comes to Skylark and his antics, mostly because people are unable to get a grasp on his character. Skylark doesn't easily let others see through his wall, and as previously established, it's extremely rare for people to see past his façade of composure and relaxation. His walls often remain standing, as if he never allows them to fall before others. As a consequence of this, he is often an individual of great mystery. Yes, he has a knack for pranks. Yes, he is “a pretty chill dude” (as described by his peers). But beyond that, do people truly know who Skylark is? His insecurities remain unknown to other people, knowing that if others were to know his weaknesses, he'd be in ruins. Seeing as Skylark is so veiled in mystery, it'd be a waste to not take advantage of this format and expose him even further. What many people may not know about Skylark is that he's surprisingly eloquent, despite not having many words to say in the first place. His eloquence often manifests itself in his writing, as he's an excellent wordsmith and excels in anything pertaining to creative writing as a result. He's more adjusted to writing letters of correspondence because he's able to fully make use of his writing ability. Sometimes his eloquence will make a cameo when he communicates with others via text, but frankly he's aware that people would think of him as incredibly lame and "trying too hard", so he opts to text like an average teenager instead. Still, this doesn't prevent him from texting paragraphs and paragraphs of grandiose jargon just for the sake of being "extra". It's mentioned earlier that Skylark doesn't have a lot of words to say, but if he's truly engaged in a conversation with someone he's taken an interest to, he'll passionately ramble about the topic at hand. Those who have the chance of conversing with Skylark in such a way would be taken aback by how talkative he can get. He's even been described as "silver-tongued" by others. Still, Skylark will barely engage in conversations about himself. He's able to carefully navigate a conversation and play his cards right so he never has to reveal anything major about himself, so that his wall remains standing. While Skylark is capable of maintaining his eloquence, it's quite hilarious when he does fumble a bit on his words. Usually he drops the usage of his silver-tongue intentionally, and seldom does he do so by accident—unless he is truly taken aback by either something a person says, or by the person themself. And when he accidentally stumbles and tries and fails to find the right words to say, it's truly riveting to see him in a state which can be described as "vulnerable". Overall, Skylark is an interesting person
