History
Prior to her birth, the gods discovered the spirits of Pandora's Box, that were released centuries ago, were gaining power. When they realized that these spirits had the power to steal demigod powers, they chose to use a mortal. This mortal would be one of the first guardians of Pandora's Box. On this same day, Hope was born near Long Island. On her thirteen birthday, this guardian died, and Hope was given the box to capture all the spirits. This same day, she discovered her gift to see through the mist and faced her first monster. Confused and scared, she fled and ran off, finding her way to Camp Half-Blood. Here, she was saved by the Demi-gods and discovered her role as the Guardian of Pandora's Box. She protests and anbandons the box in Chiron's care. Only a few minutes after, the box unleashed energy that made the barrier around the camp weaken and monster stronger and more savage. Against her fears, she ran back to the box. When she grabbed it, the energy subsided and realized that only she could guard the box. Despite her intial fear, she accepts her fate and chooses to guard Pandora's Box.
