Rukh Underhill

LCT's Self-Insertion for RP and stories. Brace yourself. This may be one of the most complex characters yet seen here.

General Info:
Name: Rukh Altaica Underhill

Nicknames: Tiger, Roc, Rook, or Tower

Age: Appears to be about 17 or 18

Mother: Venus Libitina - A death aspect of the Roman goddess Venus.

Father: Paul Underhill - Child of Athena (Greek), Mortician

Grandfather: "Tiger Bill" Underhill - Child of Dionysus (Greek), Deceased

Matron Goddess: Hera. After Venus left him alone with a child, Paul Underhill was emotionally shattered. He found comfort with a mortal woman and they were quickly married. Paul felt blessed by Hera for such a strong union and pledged his son to Hera's (greek) service. Rukh has grown up putting Hera before all others. When his demi-god abilities first started to show, he was accepted into the Greek Camp-Half Blood, despite his mother being a Roman aspect. He has also been claimed by Hera, despite being the child of another.

Appearance:
Height: 6'0"

Build: Toned and defined muscles, but not to extremes.

Hair: Short, Light Brown

Eyes: Medium Blue

Other: Has minor scarring on his left hand and his left shoulder.

Personality:
Coming Soon

Relationships:
Hera - Has spoken with her a couple of times since arriving at camp. He has served her well as champion so far and they have developed a very positive relationship. Rukh is viewed as an adopted son.

Venus/Aphrodite - She is upset that her son looks to another before her, but views that more as the fault of Hera and Rukh's father more than it being Rukh's fault. Her jealousy has led her to bestow a number of gifts on Rukh, in hopes of winning him back someday.

Children of Venus/Aphrodite - Because he has received more blessings than many of the children that actively follow their mother, Rukh has a fairly negative relationship with his half-siblings (both Greek and Roman). They feel a natural jealousy towards him, even if they have never met him before.

Athena - She has a positive relationship with her grandson, although she will not go out of her way to aid him and certainly no more than she would give any of her sons or daughters.

Dionysus - Has a positive relationship with his great-grandson. He will recognize the family link if asked. However, most of the positive relationship is based off of deed done while at camp and through general socializing (playing cards and such), rather than just because of blood.

Positive:
Charmspeak - Master. Has both strong natural ability and lots of practice with using it. Does not use it often though, to avoid building negative relationships with others. If you are already on his bad side though...

Magnetic good looks - Not literally magnetic. Just very good looking. Will cause eyes and heads to turn. This can even apply to hands, legs, rear, etc... not just his face. He cannot blend into a crowd, unless completely covered up.

Can sense and communicate with the dead. However, he has no other necromantic abilities or any other power over them. Most spirits will instinctively react to him in a positive manner, unless they have some over-riding reason not to like him.

Is a very skilled fighter with knives, daggers, swords, and staves.

Has a natural aptitude for math and logic. Can program computers/electronics at a basic level.

Has a natural aptitude for gardening, although he has no direct control over plants.

Negative:
Being 7/8 godly blood, Rukh attracts monsters much more strongly than any other demi-god at camp. This includes children of the big 3, even though their actual power may be greater. The only places he is safe are at camp or at locations with an overpowering smell to them, such as his father's morgue.

As above, his looks prevent him from blending into a crowd, unless he is completely covered up. People do not forget running across him when he is on the run. Bolder personalities may try to even get in his way and engage him in conversation as he is trying to get away.

Items of note:
Has a pair of Imperial Gold daggers.
