Celeste Chandler

File #1: Camp Half-Blood
Sub-file #10: Chandler, Celeste
~ORIGINAL CHARACTER~

Description:
     Celeste is the head of the Aphrodite cabin, who took over for Silena Beauregard when she died in The Last Olympian. According to Nico (in Part 1, Chapter 2) she's "nice when she wants to be, a good fighter when she tries to be, and pretty all the time, but she only loves herself". There he goes, being all eloquent again :)
     Celeste and Gigi definitely got off on the wrong foot, with Celeste making jabs about being 'unclaimed' and 'unwanted'. While Gigi wasn't going to take any crap from her, I don't think those comments helped Gigi's little self-esteem crisis later on. Celeste was also unsupportive of Annabeth's search-and-rescure plan, and was quite vocal about it. Luckily, Annabeth doesn't take crap from anyone either. She also was being a hardcore hater, and well, let's remember how Thalia and Percy went off on her, shall we? Stuff for the record books.
     I figured, since she was an OC, she deserved a blog post. Her character isn't very focal or important, but I think she represents those people who are opposing us at those times we need the most support. Take after Gigi and Annabeth's example: standing up for yourselves and what you believe in, but don't go crazy like Thalia, okay?

Hadley Heatherfield

File #1: Camp Half-Blood
Sub-file #9: Heatherfield, Hadley
~ORIGINAL CHARACTER~

Description:
     And now we are on to Solene's friend and also one of Gigi's forest strays, Hadley Heatherfield. She is described as a 'golden beauty' with long brown hair, tan skin, and hazel eyes. She is the daughter of Demeter, and has gained a cabin-full of half-siblings upon her arrival at Camp Half-Blood, and she nearly gave poor Nico (and friends) a heart attack when she showed up holding Gigi's braid.
     She is slowly adjusting to her new life at Camp, gaining a - fake - boyfriend and a crush all at once. While we do not know Hadley's background story yet, rest assured that you will soon find out more about this tree-hugging chick.
     As a side note, I guess I want to say the meaning behind Hadley's character is how she wants what is best for her friend, but is conflicted by her own feelings. Aka pretending to be Travis' girlfriend to make Solene jealous while harboring feelings for Connor, Solene's fake boyfriend . . . yeesh, that's confusing. But I think we've all had moments where we don't know who to think of first: ourselves or others.

Solene LeClair Durand

File #1: Camp Half-Blood
Sub-file #8: Durand, Solene LeClair
~ORIGINAL CHARACTER~

Description:
     Solene LeClair Durand, one of the mysterious demigod girls who ran into Gigi during a battle with Ria's Stymphalians in the forest. She is currently the only daughter of Aeolus, sharing his pale features and abilities to manipulate wind currents.
     I know you readers don't know much about her other than she's French, maybe Asian and fake-dating Connor Stoll, while Travis Stoll is the one who really likes her... but stay tuned for the next few chapters, maybe you'll learn something about her background.
     (p.s. sorry this one is so late and so short, but there's not a lot i can say about this character, she doesn't have a very big role in the story)
