Godly parent: Demeter

Gender: female

Appearance: round face, with soft features and big, green eyes, the colour of new foliage with long, brown hair which is normally plated, and has a slender but slightly muscular body, with an acceptable height of five foot six inch. Normally wears green tank top with faded blue jeans, at camp wears orange t shirt instead of green. Has necklace with two pendants, one in the shape of winged serpent and the other in the shape of a curved sword along with five beads.

Traits: Evelyn turns out to be very territorial about her friends. She is claimed to be stern and bossy by other campers but she would deny it if asked. She represents a rather aggressive side of her mother, and therefore is a skilled sword weilder. She is claustrophobic and tries to spend most of her time in the open. She also helps with the camp store.

She is rebellious and head strong in her own way, and has lead protests regarding saving the nature when not in camp. She is diet conscious and prefers to cook her own meal if not at camp. She wants to be a patisserie if she manages to survive that long.

Weapons: Her winged serpent shaped pendent which turns into a winged serpent, named Rose if pulled out from the necklace and a curved gold sword which is also normally present in a pendent form if she doesn't not uses it.

Backstory: Evelyn was the daughter of a well known environmentalist who lived in Texas and died of cancer when she was six. Her step mother gave her for adoption due to her impulsive nature and not really good performance at school.

Couple of years later when she was eight, her orphanage was attacked by a sphinx and was set aflame. She managed to escape and for an entire year was on run, trying to stay alive with her new found abilities to grow plants and control any organic material. Until she met a lady.

She doesn't remembers much about her, though she remembered that the lady told her about her necklace, a gift from her mother. But disappeared without telling her how to use it. In an experimental accident she was able to use the pendants and the dragon, which she later named rose and a golden curved sword appeared.

So, now armed she decided to go to New York as directed by the lady where her Dad's lawyer lived. The frequency of monster's attacks increased as she approached New York but the gifts came in handy.

The lawyer later revealed to her that her father left his entire property in her name including his home. Deciding to stay in New York, she attended a boarding school.

The Lawyer recognized her as a demigod since he himself was a retired legionnaire, taught her how to use her sword, and had planned on to send her to Camp Jupiter the following year.

But during her summer vacations, when she was conducting a protest rally where she met Sam Greenwood, who was a satyr and immediately led her to Camp Half Blood.

She enjoyed camp, which answered all her question which she couldn't ask the lawyer. Her cabinmates were also amazing, but she never felt very comfortable telling them about her mothers gift, unlike her cabinmates who bragged about having magical soils and seeds, her gift wasn't exactly the friendliest gift. Currently, she is a summer camper, much to Sam's dismay who has made futile attempts to tell Chiron that she has a strong scent for Demeter's child, but Chiron has other grave matters to worry about than a Demeter's kid.
