Character's Name : Xander Grant
Gender : Male
Species : Half-God
Location : Hollywood, California until brought to camp
Date of Birth : November 30 1997- Seventeen years old
Family : Mother- Delilah Grant

Father- Ares, God of War
History : Xander used to live with his mother, Delilah, in slight wealth, cruising by in school and not really being bothered by his ADHD. But once he hit middle school, his mother was killed in a "car accident", at least, that's what he told police. Xander had always known about who his father was and the hidden world of Grecian mythology, and he knew if his told the truth about what killed his mother, he would be shipped to the Looney bin. So instead, he lived with his brittle, crotchety old grandmother until brought to the camp as a year-round member.
Appearance : Black hair spiked up into a faux hawk, characteristic smirk, and playfully devious green eyes. His skin is lightly tanned; he usually wears tight v-necks and jeans. Popular amongst some of the girls but doesn't really have time for that.
Personality : Not really boastful but he does have a lot of self confidence, which can sometimes go to his head. He knows who he is and what he can bring to the table, and will prove it. Xander doesn't really pick fights but will never back down from one under any circumstances, even if his sword hand is broken and he can't use his weapon. He has been told he shouldn't be of Ares' lineage because he isn't completely ruthless, because he isn't a bully and has certain soft spots for the weak.
Hobbies : Sword fighting is what he would immediately say to this question, since he loves the weight of his sword, Cancer. But other than that, he loves playing his electric guitar, one of the only things left that he has from his old home. Xander also loves reading- that's right, reading. Not all Ares descendants were just blood thirsty blokes. He enjoys graphic novels, manga, fiction, and realistic fiction as long as it was fast-paced enough for his ADHD.
Demigod Abilities : Xander has a sort of Berserker rage that he can tap into if need be. His power is increased by negative thoughts or doubt, and especially, fear from nearby persons and creatures.
Demigod Weapon : Other than Cancer, a sheath that appears to regular humans as a belt so he can keep his sword close by.
Years at camp : Five years- from twelve years old to seventeen years old
Year-rounder or summer-only camper : Year-rounder
