DEMIGOD/SATYR/NYMPH
4th Year at Camp
Age: 16
Son of Hermes
Appearance:
Eye(s): Blue
Hair: dirty blonde
Height: 6'6"
Build Type: Athletic
Brief Description:
Jukka is what you would consider to be the traditional Viking. Though he isn't rather brawny, he is surprisingly strong for his size. He has a rather athletic look and has very keen eyes. He is never seen without his black compound bow, a gift from his father despite his obvious disdain for his father's godly presence. But being the son of Hermes, he has a rather elven like appearance to his ears and eyes. He carries himself in a rather sneaky way, as if he is constantly trying to skulk around and he tends to keep to the shadows. He has a scar across his left eye and his left ear looks as if it had been chewed on.
Jukka generally wears jeans and button down shirts. He looks like a regular american kid. However when in battle he wears very little leather amour, preferring movement to actual defense. Mostly he wears a pair of hand tooled leather bracers that he received after completing his first quest. A leather chest piece and a pair of leather shoulder pads completes his battle gear.
Background:
Mortal Parent(s): Jaani Vuori- Hiilden, 43, mother
Jarno Hiilden, 50, step-father
Other Family: Ville Hiilden, 12, step-brother
Pets: Valo, Black pegasus
Brief History:
Born in late February, Jukka was born in Helsinki Finland to Jaani Vuori-Hiilden. Not much is known about how Hermes and his mother met, but it was obvious that Jukka was not the son of Jarno. There was a lot of controversy and arguments about Jukka's origins. His step-father was rather irate about having an illegitimate son. Being one of the top marksman in the Jaeger Regiment of the Finnish military, Jarno couldn't afford to have many people find out about his illegitimate son, so from the earliest age, Jukka was sent to military school in the US.
From the very beginning, Jukka was fascinated with the Marines and the idea of being a sniper. He always was the best in Marksman classes and in top shot competitions from such a young age. However he was always getting in trouble for stealing things. However at his first school, despite all of the allegations of his thievery, no one could prove that he was actually behind all of the thefts. However after his first year in middle school, he met a girl named Rhiannon who was a daughter of Tyche. Though neither of them knew it, they were demi-gods.
However at the age of thirteen, they managed to attract a manitcore. After taking a rather sound beating, Jukka managed to protect Rhiannon from the manticore even though he looked as if he had been chewed up and spit out. After the manticore vanished, he had dropped a bow. Jukka picked it up and kept it with him ever since then. At first it was hard to pull back but gradually he grew strong enough to pull it back. Shortly after his thirteenth birthday, he was claimed by hermes. Though it made more sense that his skills were inherited from his father, Jukka resented his dad with the utmost loathing. He blamed him for being shoved from school to school and being an outcast in his own family.
Jukka has developed a rather interesting relationship with Rhiannon. She is his best friend and he will do anything to protect her. Also he is obsessed with becoming a marine sniper. He hopes that his archery training will help him become a more disciplined sniper. He was finally given US citizenship status on his sixteenth birthday.
Personality:
A rather insulting and abrasive person, Jukka HATES everyone. But more importantly Jukka hates the Gods. Being a very angry person, he will do anything to over throw the gods and show that they are truly nothing without their children. He feels that he is much better then teh gods are. Jukka is also a ruthless fighter and will stop at nothing to complete the mission that has been assigned to him. His mind is cold and calculating, always thinking of the next shot he will make. Jukka is very blunt and cold towards anyone that speaks to him except for Rhiannon. He is extreamly protective over her and will kill anyone who tries to hurt her.

Fighting Specialty: Mostly proficient with the compound longbow, Jukka is an excellent shot and can hit almost anything he can see. He wants to be a sniper and hopes that his proficiency with a bow will help with a sniper gun. His compound bow is jet black and never needs arrows to fire. All he has to do is will it and any type of arrow he needs will appear.
Describe the extent of your powers/abilities:
-Stealth- Jukka is really sneaky and good at not being seen. Most people don't know where he is until they get shot in their backside with the arrows.
-Theivery- Another thing he's really good at. There is a rather small chance that someone will actually catch him in the act so he gets away with almost anything. Watch your wallet around him.
-Agile- Jukka is very quick on his feet. Because he is extremely fast, it seems like he's every where at once. He has slight teleportation abilities but it only works for a few feet and he has to see where he wants to be if he wants to teleport. Jukka can also only use this very few times a day.
-Lock picking- There is never a lock that can stand up to Jukka's ability to lock pick. He's quick and fast at what he does so there is a rare chance that someone can actually catch him picking a lock.

Theme Song: Blue on Black, Kenny Wayne Shepherd
Night falls and I'm alone
Skin yeah chilled me to the bone
You turned and you ran
Oh yeah oh slipped, right from my hand
Hey, blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream doesn't change a thing
Don't bring you back
Blue on black oh yeah, blue on black
Blind oh, now I see
Truth, lies and in between
Wrong, can't be undone
Oh slipped, from the tip of your tongue
Hey, blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream doesn't change a thing
Doesn't bring you back, yeah
Blue on black, oh blue on black, oh yeah
Blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
Cold on ice is a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream doesn't change a thing
Don't bring you back, blue on black, oh yeah
Blue on black
Hey, blue on black, tears on a river
Push on a shove it don't mean much
Joker on jack, match on a fire
And cold on ice is a dead man's touch
Whisper on a scream doesn't change a thing
Doesn't bring you back
Blue on black, oh blue on black
Oh blue on black, oh blue on black
