Michael Chevalier

Name: Michael Chevalier Gender: Male Age: 18 Species: Demigod Appearance:

Personality: He's similar to Melissa in that he's a pretty cheerful and kind person, but unlike her, he doesn't have a maintaining faith in the goodness of people. He will actively hold grudges against people he doesn't like and believes he's a good enough judge of character to be able to tell who the scumbags are. To his credit, he is fairly good at it. Sometimes he does let the blood get to his head and doesn't always hesitate to duke it out when he's mad at someone. Being pretty athletic and having a flexible mindset, he's a pretty good fighter, when push comes to shove. Family:

• Melody Rivers - mother

• Patrick Chevalier - adoptive/sort-of-father-type-person

• Melissa Chevalier - half-sister

• Sierra Chevalier - not-exactly-sister

• Achelous - father

Background: His mother had gone to Greece a few months after the Melissa's birth, a trip she kept secret from Patrick, because that was where they'd had their honeymoon. At some point, she ended up crying in a secluded spot next to the Achelous River, where Achelous approached her and, taking advantage of her grief, made love to her. It wasn't until she got back to the States that she eventually realized she was pregnant. She revealed that Michael wasn't Patrick's child after Michael was born, before she began the process of filing for divorce. He never felt like the cuckoo in the nest, since Patrick made it clear that he considered Michael as much his child as Sierra and Melissa. Nyx revealed his father's identity to him when she showed up in front of them, but only because it happened to come up, not because she actually cared about him. Nyx is like that. Anyways, he spent a long time wondering why his father never contacted him, but has since gotten used to the idea. Plus, he figures Achelous probably can't leave the Achelous River, and he's not planning to go there any time soon. Powers: Like his sisters (the sirens) his singing draws people to him and makes them feel lethargic and weak. He can also control freshwater to some small extent, such as making it swell or ebb - flow faster or slower, he can also make dwindling supplies last a bit longer than normal (since the horn of plenty came from his father's brow), and skin contact with a small amount of saltwater turns it into freshwater. He's an excellent swimmer, but that's not exactly a power.... Likes: Swimming, being out in the sun, being free to do his own thing, strawberries, honey, camping. Dislikes: Being forced to do anything, eggs, staying inside too long, sitting still and quiet too long, funnily enough he thinks fish look stupid and are a waste of space, rain. Fears: Perpetual boredom, dusty dark cold libraries, dark stall bathrooms (not that he'd admit it).
