:Glaring Eyes:

Really hope I did this right, and might be edited quite a lot if I see the need for it to be/the mods tell me to change stuff. And I'll be filling this out as it goes on, where she recieves blessings from Athena, and a weapon. I thought it would go with her personality that she wouldn't start with a weapon, since she's trying to figure herself out still, and what she's really good at/with.

So I've wanted to join #Demigod-Rising for a long time now, and the apps have finally opened! I'm trying to create completely different characters than what I'm used to, to get myself out of my safety bubble, y'know? So I ended up really liking this design. I'm really hoping I get in. Wish me luck! I haven't tried to enter a group in a loong time now, so I think it's okay that I add in another, right?

Thelma Manish is a well-rounded girl who is defined by her pride, but just hasn’t found her place yet. She is a focused, energetic, and competitive teenager who is competent with many skills but not necessarily outstanding in any particular one. For now she strives to find the one thing she was meant to do for the rest of her life. Her personal aim is to be proud of her achievements, to be admired by her family and friends and eventually the world at large. Thelma has cut herself out from most social interactions, while she works towards her goal. Because she is uncertain about what it is she’s good at, she will try just about any skill she can get her hands on or read about. This can easily get in the way of having fun once in a while, something which she rarely focuses on or makes a priority. She isn’t overly sociable and needs some time in a day to just be alone with her thoughts. In social situations, Thelma does not always think of other’s emotions and will criticise without worrying about the other person’s feelings. She is so focused on herself and reaching her own goals that she fails to take into account the feelings of others.

Deadly Flaw:
Prideful
Thelma is a very selfish girl who’s proud of herself and disregards others, their accomplishments, and their feelings. This makes it harder for her when she’s forced on a team and she will willingly leave teammates behind to reach the goal herself.

Background:
Feroze Manish worked many jobs in his life. He moved around constantly and never stayed in one city for long. He worked as a substitute teacher for a few weeks, and in that time he met Athena. The two hit it off well, but soon Feroze moved onto another job and never heard from the woman again. A few months later though there was a golden basket waiting for him in a home he’d only just moved to. It was a little girl, and he named her Thelma.

Thelma was raised solely by her father and was kept fairly safe due to his habit of moving and changing jobs. She grew up to be much like him: he was always sunk into whatever work he was doing at the time and most of his jobs were very time consuming, though he could never find one he really liked working at. Feroze ended up working and moving so often that he never did marry or find another significant other, and he just couldn’t put his work down long enough to bother. This had a huge effect on Thelma, who ended up taking on the idea that work was more important than play.

Eventually, Feroze was working so often that he couldn’t be around Thelma enough to protect her from the stymphalian birds who were finally able to locate her after so long of moving from place to place.
