Cabin 13: Hades Cabin
As a child of Hades, you possess a unique connection to the Underworld and its mysteries. You are likely introspective, reserved, and have a deep understanding of mortality and the cycles of life and death. You are not necessarily drawn to darkness, but you are comfortable with its presence and understand its necessity.
Personality Traits
Hades
Children of Hades are often misunderstood. You are not inherently evil or malicious, but rather, you are comfortable with aspects of existence that others shy away from. You are likely quiet, observant, and fiercely independent. You may possess a strong sense of justice and fairness, though your methods might be unconventional. You might appear aloof or detached, but this is often a defense mechanism, protecting a surprisingly sensitive core. You value loyalty and honesty above all else. Children of Hades may also be creative or excel in the arts. You might have dark hair, dark or deep green eyes, and a pale complexion, or even look like they have spent too much time in darkness.
Abilities
- Necromancy:
You have the power to summon and control the dead, including ghosts and skeletal warriors. This is a demanding ability, and overuse can drain your energy.
- Umbrakinesis:
You can manipulate shadows, using them for concealment, travel (shadow travel), and even as a form of attack. Shadow travel is incredibly draining, and traveling long distances can be dangerous.
- Geokinesis (Limited):
You have a limited degree of control over the earth, primarily related to the Underworld. This can manifest as the ability to sense and manipulate precious metals and gems found beneath the earth (ferrokinesis).
- Osteokinesis:
Some children of Hades can have control over bones.
- Death Sense:
You can often sense when someone is near death or has recently died.
- Intimidation:
Your connection to the Underworld grants you an aura of authority and power that can be intimidating to others, both mortals and monsters.
