TEST DRIVE MEME

So you think you have what it takes to be a demigod? Want to spend a summer at Camp Half-Blood, but can't decide who you wanna toss in? Give us a whirl right here!
Disclaimer: Any and all medical bills resulting from injuries at camp will not be covered by the gods

Prompts for your convenience!:

1. Fashion disasters. That is what you all are, at least according to Aphrodite's cabin (seriously, neon orange?). But since it's the uniform, you have to at least try to make it work. What are your creative ideas for style in the summer sun when you have to wear apparently the ugliest shirt known to man?

2. Defending the line. A hell hound has been attacking camp borders! Rather than risk it getting in, it's up to the campers to dispatch it as quickly as possible. Make a plan, form groups and take this guy out? Or try to fight it on your own. (After all, "hero" tends to tie in with "idiot.")

3. Training grounds. A normal day on the training grounds. Archery practice, swordplay, and a climbing wall spitting lava! Learn yourself some skills while you still can, otherwise you might end up barbecue in a real combat situation.

4. Beach party! Day off and we are chilling on the beach. It's nice being so close to the water, right? And I promise Poseidon won't try to drown ~~most of~~ you.

5. Prank victims. SOMEONE (looking at you, Hermes kid), has decided to lock anyone in the bathroom around the time the most people shower. This is a problem, as SOMEONE (looking at you, Hermes kid) also lost the key to the bathroom. It might take a while for them to find it, or they might just blow down the door. So what do you feel like doing tonight, my poor trapped demigods?

Or just go with something of your own! Feel free to check out or FAQ for more ideas, and don't forget to check out or other links, too! (Like our reserves and apps? winkwink?)

[Blank stare.] Taijutsu? Huh… I haven’t heard of that style before. What about your new abilities? Did you inherit any fighting techniques from your parent?

[The boxer finished wiping the sweat off his face, and then let the towel dangle loosely around his neck.] Though, if you’re really set on fighting with a sword, I have a friend who could probably teach you. She’s been fencing for years.

Taijutsu is not the style. It is just the name of the tool. You have heard of ninjutsu and genjutsu, yes? Taijutsu is merely what the hand-to-hand techniques are called.

[She stops to think about what she inherited once it was revealed that Athena was her mother.] I have gained more knowledge in how to wage war and how to plan strategies, but I do not think that just having the knowledge without practical usage of it will do me any good. Hence I am considering taking up kenjutsu...sword training.
