Description
Name: Selkie Davenport
Age: 20 (Born January 1st)
Height: 5'3"
Weight: Heavier than average- It's really all muscle.
Race: Demigod
Sex: Female
God-parent: Poseidon
Mortal Parent(s):Taffy Davenport A rich, clever and beautiful ex-socialite who married to an older gentleman and inherited his estate upon his death. After her involvement with Poseidon, she quickly remarried to another rich gentleman, and became very attached to this one.Weapon:-Mist: Trident belt buckle
-Non-Mist: Celestial bronze tridentPowers:Rain on my Parade: Selkie can cause a torrential downpour up to a radius of 50 feet around her- If her focus is broken the rain will dissipate eventually.

Wave Machine: Like water bending, Selkie can manipulate water through deliberate movements of her arms and legs. Her control is near perfect- She cannot manipulate more than a swimming pool (625 meters cubed) at once, and the movement of the water under manipulation is very smooth.
Her range of applications are growing too:
-She can create bubbles of water, the size of a human head, to allow people to breathe underwater. These only last 10 minutes at max, and are hard to maintain.
-She can make a pressurized jet that will push an opponent back, or if employed in the other axis can lift a person up to better scout the surroundings from a higher vantage point. Max distance, 20 feet (if the person is pretty light. Less, the heavier they are.)
-She can manipulate the water into a fog that surrounds her in a 20 foot radius, making it tricky for someone to get a direct hit on her. This lasts 2 minutes at max.
-She can manipulate the water into a long whip, 20 feet long at max, that can leave a stinging blow on an opponent.
-She can create small whirlpools in large bodies of water. They are only 20 feet wide at max and can draw an average sized person into it.

My Father's Domain: Selkie can now feel the emotions and the thoughts (as well as being able to impart certain orders) of various sea creatures and horses; the animals under her father's control. She can feel subtle variations in the emotions of the creatures, hear their thoughts and share her own, suggest more complex orders such as fetching things farther away, or completing journeys, and she must be within 15 feet of the creature(s) in question.Blessings:1.For Selkie's first blessing, she has been given a celestial bronze trident. This trident will return to her once thrown, but after 13 times in one day Selkie would have to go after the trident herself.
2. For Selkie's second blessing, she has been given a conch shell. This can call a pegasus or hippocampus to her, depending on her need to travel. It can be used once a day and she can travel up to 2000 miles.Personality:Competitive- Selkie is incredibly competitive. She’ll find a way to make almost anything into a competition or top trumps style face off. And, of course, she’ll do everything she can to win. If she can’t win, or if she doesn’t, she’ll sulk, claim it was a practice, or simply demand a rematch.
Highly-Driven- She’s dogged in her goals, her desires to improve, and of course, her drive to be the best. It doesn’t take much to motivate her to achieve something, even just daring her to do it is enough for her to rise to whatever challenge she’s been set, or set herself.
Energetic- You’ll almost never see her sit still. She doesn’t have the patience for sitting around and waiting for things to happen. Selkie is a go-getter who climbs trees, scales lava-walls and jogs 10 laps around the training field as a warm-up. Or so I’m told. Deadly Flaw:No fear- She doesn’t seem to be aware of the entire consequences of a situation, or the very real danger a monster possesses. Instead, she’s more concerned with killing the thing in the most awesome way, or beating the kill score of a rival.
Driven to finish- Once she starts something, it’s incredibly hard for Selkie to stop half-way through. So hard that she’ll throw a tantrum at anything that dares impede her completion of a goal, to the point of yelling, swearing and kicking inanimate objects.
Everything’s a competition- No, really. Everything. From how pointy someone’s ears are, to how quickly they lost their baby teeth, everything is fair game for a show down. This can impede the progress of a mission when she’s trying to one-up a partner.Background:Growing up in a rich, plentiful area of Conneticut had its advantages: Selkie was able to roam through her house’s gardens; running around, swimming in the lake and climbing all over. Any person working in and around the house was thoroughly screened, and Taffy had the good sense to inform her daughter as soon as she could comprehend it that she was special, and she would have a lot of care around her to make sure she was safe. That safety meant she managed to avoid contact with monsters for most of her life, whilst that knowledge lead to many games of “Selkie and the trident”.
There was more of a danger when she joined high school and a lot of extra-curricular sports based clubs, but she had the good fortune to not encounter any nasties of any sort. Until recently, of course. A particularly flesh-ripping monster made it’s way to her home, and rampaged in the gardens for a while until a satyr followed the destruction to the source. The monster was promptly seen to. It was a hasty and rushed goodbye with her mother before Selkie and the satyr raced off to the Camp, endeavouring to stay unscented through the journey.
Other Info:-Don't let her slight frame fool you; Selkie is built for speed and endurance. And climbing.
-Gets deeply homesick from time to time; her mother is very close to her heart.
-Despite many people's underestimation of her due to her size and frame, Selkie herself is guilty of not seeing slimmer and smaller people as much of a threat.
-She has absolutely no skills in sewing, cooking, sculpting, painting, singing, dancing, embroidery, flower arranging, instrument playing, etc etc etc. That doesn't mean to say she won't try to compete at them.
