Leo Valdez

I WAS GOING TO WAIT UNTIL LATER IN THE WEEK TO DO THIS but I ain't doing much rp stuff anyway so. Hiatus until the 13th! Yogi/Yoshino is visiting me on Thursday and we are going to have ADVENTURES with Disney and other stuff. I miiiight tag a little around til then but not much.

This affects this guy/Ben/Annie/Hakaze/my other dudes I have a lot.

Name: Leo Valdez
Age: 15-16
Height: 5'6''
Weight: idk but he's pretty scrawny so probably not much
Medical Info: He's extremely ADHD, even by demigod standards. He also has dyslexia.
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Black

Physical Features: His hair is slightly longer than in his icons, and more scraggly. He'll probably be often seen with dirt or oil on his features. He will also always, always be wearing a tool belt. It's a magical one, and. Yes. He never takes it off for the most part.

What's Not Okay To Mention: Everything's fine!

Abilities: As a demigod he has a couple of neat little tricks to help him not die horribly. Demigods are normally skilled in combat (it's the reason why they tend to have ADHD, because their brains are wired for fighting). Being the son of Hephaestus, he has other specific powers as well.

• Mechanical abilities: He is really good at building/fixing things. This comes from both his dad and his mom, who was a human mechanic. He can operate machines that he has never seen before, which includes driving vehicles like planes and other stuff like that. He can also sense traps.

• Pyrokinesis: He's a firebender lol. It's a very rare ability for Hephaestus kids, and is usually considered a curse since people who have it tend to... destroy... stuff. Whoops. He usually uses it defensively, by creating walls of fire, but he can shoot it, increase the heat, and other tricks that he doesn't really know yet because he's still in the process of learning to control it. Because of that, when he gets emotional, he'll start to lose control of it. He's also pretty much fireproof, although it might sting him a little in some special cases.

Notes for Psychics/Magically or Spiritually sensitive: Demigods in this series basically are giant signals that lets other magical/mythical/whatever beings know where they are. If your character is able to sense that type of thing, they should be able to tell that Leo is a snowflake.

He, like all of the fine heroes and heroines and this series, has gone through a bit of trauma! If any psychics prod, some of the heavier things are the fact that his life has been pretty much shaped by the goddesses Gaea and Hera/Juno. The former actually made him burn down the building he and his mom were in which lead to her death. He also has inferiority issues and constantly doubts whether he belongs or not, often getting referred to as the seventh wheel by others. He's also currently convinced that he is the reason that something pretty terrible happened to two of his friends, and he was taken to camp right after that happened so he is. Moping.

Shapeshifting/Bodyswapping/Spitting at/Stepping on/Etc: Ask for the first two, everything else is good.

Hugging/Kissing/Other Non-Violent Physical Contact: LADIES

Maim/Murder/Death: TALK TO ME

Emo/Angst/Drama: sure why not

Cooking: He can cook pretty decently!
