Appearance:
Eye(s): Brown, or gold when using power
Hair: dark and short
Height: 6'4"
Build Type: Tall and slender
Brief Description: Roland's looks are an odd contrast. He stands at over six feet tall but his arms and legs are thin and muscular. He tends to wear baggy shirts and hoddies, which hides his rather thin build. He wears his hair short, but well kept, and loves to wear sunglasses. The same necklace can always be seen hanging from Roland's neck. It is a small replica of the globe atlas holds in famous New York City statue, and can be untwisted and expand into a javelin should Roland need a weapon.
Background:
Mortal Parent(s): Faith Dischain
Other Family: None
Pets:
Brief History: Faith Dischain was a rather skilled mountain climber from San Fransico, she had experience on most ranges in the United States and some on foreign soil. One day she went climbing on a local mountain she was lead to by a strange man she met in a supply store. She spent hours on the mountain until she was misdirected by a thick mist. She pressed forward, using her climbers instincts to reach the summit. What she found puzzeled her, there seemed to be a man standing at the summit, holding what looked like a cluster of clouds. As the man looked at her greedily with his golden eyes she tried to rationalize the sight. It must be the altitude she told herself, but she had climed far higher without incident. Faith began to get woozy and finally fainted, waking at the base of the mountain.
Months passed and Faith discovered she was pregnant, naming the boy Roland. She loved his without regard for her lack of knowledge of who his father was. Roland lived happily with his mom until he was thirteen. He discovered his powers and destroyed half of his schools auditorium in the process. After the incident Faith told Roland she was shipping him off to military school, and he ran away that night.
The next year was spent on the run, where he befriended a son of Hepheastus named James. They travelled together fighting monsters in search of the rumored Camp Half Blood, Roland fighting with his spear and James with his magical hammer. Trajety hit when they were cornered by a horde of monsters in a New Jersey warehouse. James gave Roland his hammer and told him to go, that he would meet up with him at camp. As Roland bolted from the warehouse he saw the building explodes, destroying the beasts that had been chasing him. He searched for hours in search of his friend to no avail.
It was at that moment he was finally claimed, a globe necklace fell from the sky and Roland was encompassed in golden light. He understood perfectly, Atlas wasn't just the titan of strength, he was the titan of heavy burdens, and Roland felt the full burden of his friends loss. He stumbled and found his way to camp, where he resides to this day.

Fighting Specialty: Roland was mainly raised using his spear as a weapon, but after the loss of James uses his friend's hammer as his primary weapon. The hammer has the head of a sledgehammer and aplifies impact force, which allows it to cause heavy damage. The handle is also curved to allow the hammer to be thrown like a boomerange.
Describe the extent of your powers/abilities: As the son of Atlas Roland has immense endurance, he can run, fight, and exercise for extensive periods of time without tiring. He is also able to continue functioning after being wounded, as long as the wounds aren't to his vital organs.
Roland's main power is his super strength, he can draw upon the raw power of atlas, allowing him to lift and hit with far higher strength than a regular demigod. Roland's strength is not always active however, Normally he is as strong as a regular demigod. He must activate his power, causing his eyes to glow gold, and in instances of extreme use his body. Using his super strength severely drains Roland's stamina,causing damage to his muscles and making extended use of it impossible.
Perhaps a curse of atlas is that Roland always feels like he is carrying the weight of the world on his shoulders. Every victory he claims seems to come at a price, such as finding camp lost him his best friend.
Fatal Flaw: Arrogance, Roland feels like superman sometimes and it gets him in trouble. He takes on task with no concern for how difficult they many be to accomplish

Theme Song:Paint It Black-Rolling Stones
LyricsI see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
I see a line of cars and they're all painted black
With flowers and my love, both never to come back
I see people turn their heads and quickly look away
Like a newborn baby it just happens ev'ryday
No more will my green sea go turn a deeper blue
I could not forsee this thing happening to you
If I look hard enough into the setting sun
My love will laugh with me before the morning comes
I look inside myself and see my heart is black
I see my red door and it has been painted black
Maybe then I'll fade away and not have to face the facts
It's not easy facing up when your whole world is black
I see a red door and I want it painted black
No colors anymore I want them to turn black
I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes
I have to turn my head until my darkness goes
Hmm, hmm, hmm...
I wanna see it painted black, painted black
Black as night, black as coal
I wanna see the sun, blotted out from the sky
I wanna see it painted, painted, painted, painted black
Yeah
