Zeus
Nicknames Dakota Rae, Dakota Rae Jones, Child of Zeus, Witlocke, Southern Belle Birthday June 26 Hometown Bartow, Georgia Face Claim Bryden Jenkins Abilities Able to manipulate wind and lightning, great sword fighter, adept whip fighter, great with mounted combat Mortal Family Emma Mae Witlocke, Dorkas Mae Jones, Colt Ryder Jones, Deacon Hunt Jones The Roleplayer Blitzy, Admin of TNP | Appearance Dakota has platinum blonde hair that could only come from her father, considering her mom and aunt have dark honey blonde many mistake as brown, and her hair was never dyed. Her eyes are a striking electric blue most describe as giving her a look that says 'don't mess with me.' She has a lean, lightly muscled build that comes from long hours working outside, both before Camp and after. It's easy to tell this female is a southern belle with her southern accent, drawl, and speech patterns. After all, those phrases she's known for sayin' "Ain't from no city folk." Her pale complexion never strays into the tanned spectrum, despite the long hours she spends outdoors. Dakota Rae wears her hair long, currently long enough to fall below her rib cage. It's usually kept down and curled, unless some sort of special occasion is happening. She wears a dark but thin ring of ebony black eye liner, making her eyes pop against her pale complexion of her skin and hair. True to her southern roots, Dakota Rae Jones owns cowgirl boots in just about every color imaginable, and a good few cowgirl hats to match. Even during Summer when she is in shorts and a halter top, Dakota has her boots on. Personality Raised on tradition, culture, and a ranch, one can just guess how this southern gal is. Other than being known for her southern drawl and uncommon phrases, Dakota Rae is known for her big heart and fierce protective nature. She is used to getting her hands dirty, as she often did back home. Dakota grew up with two "brothers" so she knows how to play with the big boys, and she can play just as rough. Much like with many of the children of Zeus, Dakota Rae can be quite bossy. She is a natural leader, but tends to take this too far, and ends up telling others what to do. It's almost instinct for her to take charge, and if someone else tries to take up the mantel, Dakota becomes stubborn and rebellious. Not that she isn't at other times. Since this gal was a young filly, she's always been stubborn, and has had quite a few rebellious streaks that often get her into dangerous situations. Order is very important to her, and it drives Dakota insane when something is out of its right place. If she catches someone moving her stuff around, Dakota is likely to chew them out for it. The female always refers to someone who is older than her either as Sir, or Ma'am, depending on the gender of the person. She shows respect to her elders, as her mother taught her. Dakota Rae can fight, and uses a sword-whip, a gift given to her when she was claimed by her father. The weapon has the ability to extend into a whip, or shrink back into a sword. She makes good use of both styles of fighting. |
History
Emma was a budding country singer when she met Zeus. When Emma found out she was pregnant, she never asked the doctor the gender of the baby; it didn't matter either way, she already had her heart set on the name Dakota. The child would either be Dakota Rae or Dakota Shawn. It was while she was pregnant her career fell apart. Emma lost her contract and her money. She lost everything after that, and reached out to her sister Dorkas Mae Jones for help. Dorkas Mae allowed her sister to move in with her and her two three-year-old twin boys.
When Dakota was born, both sisters were glad the child was a girl instead. There would have been too many boys if Dakota would join the male count, already at three. Emma loved her little girl, and early in the child's life, things were normal. Things were mundane.
It wasn't until the small girl was six that the case of the stranges came. While Dakota was at school one day during recess, an eagle landed atop the swing set Dakota was using, and warned her of the male that was watching her: he wasn't what he appeared. Dakota asked what the bird meant, however the bird was already gone.
After the strange conversation with the eagle, Dakota went home, nothing really out of the ordinary happening that day. Except the fact that the eagle was back, and followed her home, somehow managing to not draw attention to himself. Dakota would only learn later that it was the mist covering the creature that served to keep unnecessary attention to the young girl and her unusual companion.
Dakota's life went on like that, the eagle always close to where the female could see it. Somehow, the avian companion seemed to show up when Dakota was in danger, warning her to take a separate route to school, or telling her just the right place to hide to keep the monsters away.
While she was avoiding monsters with the help of her eagle friend, Dakota was also balancing a normal life where she helped her mom and aunt on the farm, wrestled with her elder cousins (whom she always considered brothers), and did her school work. Her mother had her sitting on the back of a horse since she was six. At first the riding lessons were with either her mom or aunt, the only people she was allowed to rise with, but as she grew older, the two adults allowed her to ride with Deacon and Colt, whom she enjoyed riding with.
At the age of eleven, Dakota met Jesse, a male who used crutches. But that never stopped him from using then as weapons when someone made fun of him for his disability. Naturally, Jesse became friends with Dakota, who found his aggressiveness refreshing. Jesse also took a liking to Dakota's two cousins, who seemed to be very protective of the female, and threatened to harm anyone who wanted to hurt the female.
Dakota wouldn't realize that the eagle who usually was with her was absent in the year she knew Jesse.
The next time the eagle was spotted was when Dakota and Jesse were at the Witlocke Ranch and Dakota was riding with Colt. The two were racing, but Dakota's horse got spooked and threw her from his back. Colt, who had been letting the female lead, stopped his own horse and jumped to the help of Dakota, moving at the same time Jesse was. Deacon had heard the shout from his twin and cams rushing out. Together they managed to get the female in Colt's truck and drive to the hospital. Once there the female was checked in, and diagnosed with a broken leg and arm.
Later that night, after visiting hours, Jesse snuck into Dakota's room. The window was open, ans the eagle flew in, landing on the head post of the bed. Jesse told Dakota they had to go before the rest caught up with them. Dakota asked what he meant but he didn't answer. Instead he pulled Dakota's phone from her jacket and called her cousins, telling them that Dakota needed them.
The country gal was unsure how he managed to do it, but somehow Jesse managed to convince both brothers to help get Dakota to New York, where she would be safe. Colt once again had his old red pick-up truck and the two carried the female towards it, putting hee in the back seat beside Jesse. Then the four set out to New York, where it was believed the female to be safe, though from what no one would tell her.
When the group was in North Carolina, Deacon cursed and told his brother they were being followed. Colt said it was a harpie, and as soon as he said it, Jesse yelled at him for using its real name. He apologized and swerved the truck to miss the creature who had landed on the middle of the road. Dakota meanwhile, was demanding to know what was going on, but neither male would tell her. Jesse just told her to shut up and let her cousin concentrate on driving. They dodged, swerved, and stayed on as many backroads as possible to avoid the monsters after the powerful female.
The most devastating attack came while in Maryland, at a hotel they were staying at. The eagle was back, pecking at the window. Colt unlocked the window to allow the eagle in, and Deacon explained that the bird had been helping Dakota from a young age. Jesse figured that the bird was sent by the girl's father, and guessed at who he was, though he hadn't said who out loud.
The attack came soon after. Harpies swarmed the building, the four still inside. Jesse told the twins to take the female and sneak her out the back: he would stay and buy them time. He told them to hurry because they hadn't much time.
Dakota refused, but against her two elder cousins, and their combined 160 pounds they had over her, she didn't have a chance to refuse as they dragged her from the hotel and put her in the backseat, Deacon climbing in behind her to keep her from jumping back out to get to her friend.
From then on, the eagle returned, leading the three of them out of Maryland, through Pennsylvania, and into New York, where Jesse had told the two brothers the girl would be safe. They arrived safely, and Dakota went into the camp, the only place where she would be safe.
A few months after arriving, the female was claimed by Zeus, where she would reside within her father's cabin. She never saw Jesse again, though a day after she was claimed, a patch of sacred garlic pears, a favorite of Jesse's, grew just outside the Zeus cabin. Jesse always claimed them his favorite because they were "true flowers.". Dakota had just found them pretty.
