Brief Description: Austin’s past life has not been easy for him, and as a result he has developed into a hard and sarcastic individual. He does not trust people easily and because of his rude and sardonic attitude, he doesn’t have too many friends. Austin doesn’t care what people think about him and does what he feels like.
Background: Nigel Summers was Austin’s father and he fell in love with Athena when the two of them met at a science convention. Within 6 dates, Nigel realized that the woman he had fallen in love with wasn’t exactly human. But it was too late by then, he was already head over heels in love with her. Then after two months of dating, Athena returned to Olympus, leaving Mr Summers bereft.
But 7 months later, Mr Summers opened his front door to find a cradle, containing a baby boy, on his doorstep. Lying on top of the silken blanket was a letter from Athena explaining who she was, and what Austin would grow up to be – if he survived. In spite of the future hardships the baby would have caused him, Mr Summers took his half-blood son in. Within a month, Nigel married a woman, Regina Brown a colleague from work, so that Austin could have a mother.
As Austin grew up, he attracted more and more monsters. Mr Summers could not bring himself to send his only son to Camp Half-Blood. But they had to keep moving from place to place, to avoid the monsters and Austin’s step-mother resented this, and since she had no love for the unruly boy, she wanted to send him off to camp immediately. One day, when Austin was 14, Nigel Summers decided to tell him who he really was. But once he realized who he was, Austin was in even worse danger. Soon after, in what the mortals thought was a hit-and-run, Mr.Summers was killed. Almost immediately, his step-mother kicked him out of the house, onto the streets to fend for himself. Austin had no choice but to fall in with the local hoodlums. It was a rough life for him, living each day with nothing but harsh words and to fight tooth and nail for survival. Austin soon became a hardened warrior and a hard person as well. He survived on the streets for 2 and a half years, fighting monsters, rival gangs and going in and out of jail.
Finally, sick of having to battle for his life most every day, he decided to seek out the Camp half-Blood his father had told him about. So eventually he arrived there and thus began his first year at camp.

Role Playing Sample:
Kaera wandered around aimlessly, just feasting her eyes on the goings-on. She had nothing better to do anyway; one of her cabinmates had dragged her to the games booth that evening otherwise there was not a chance in hell that Kaera would even take a step in here. She had visited the dance floor too, earlier that day, at the insistence of her annoying half-sister and that had proved to be a disaster. Hardly surprising, thought Kaera to herself, sardonically, since he couldn't dance to save her life. Not even when Jason had asked her to dance. She could just picture herself lying flat on her ass, in the middle of the dance floor. No thanks.
Kaera's thoughts softened as she remembered Jason asking her to dance. They had begun dating recently, and so far, Kaera felt as if she had been living in a dream. Especially considering her reluctance to agree to be his girlfriend after the horrific experience she'd had with guys. Unconsciously, Kaera fingered the scar on her neck.
Since she had recently come from the dance floor, Kaera was dressed for it; in a pretty mauve mini-dress and black lace-up heels. She felt a little self-conscious of the glances she was attracting, all dressed to the nines as she was, but she tried to ignore it as she walked around. Already the heels she had been forced into wearing had begun to hurt her ankles and the dress had begun to itch. She had gotten bored of watching her cabin-mate make out with one of the Aphrodite guys at the kissing booth. Since Kaera's half-sister didn't look like she'd be surfacing any time soon, she had decided to move off before the heavy kisses developed into something else.
As she roamed around, the flashing lights and the polyphonic sounds of the machines crowded her senses, she nearly crashed headlong into a girl who was standing indecisively in e middle of the floor.
