camp half-blood
a camp for children of the greek gods
history
chiron, the centaur son of kronus, lived on mount pelion with his nymph wife. He was the trainer of great heroes, which include perseus, hercules, jason and achilles. chiron has the lower body of a horse, connected to the upper body of a man. Chiron knew, though immortal, one day he would not be able to teach them personally. so he made a safe camp for all children of the greek gods.
this is played au (alternite universe) so percy jackson and the seven never existed.
now, camp half-blood is re-forming! we don't have a real history yet nowadays... but with quests and monsters popping up all over the place, we will soon!
founders
originally chiron the centaur, with help from the gods(for more information, look up 'chiron the centaur' on google)
location/territory
camp half blood is located on long island, new york. it is accessible only by half-bloods, gods, and anyone they chose to let in, with the exception of a mortal that chooses to become the oracle. there is a large pine tree by the border protecting camp from harm, a gift from the gods.
there is a large field of strawberries, the camp's main source of mortal revenue. they are tended to by the saytars, nymphs, and occasionally dionysus himself.
the big house is in the middle of the main camp. it is home to the staff, a ping-pong table council room, and the oracle.
the climbing wall, forge, and pegasus stables are located west of the big house. the climbing tower, amphitheater, canoe lake, arts and crafts, as well as the volleyball court are located to the east. the mess hall and cabins are directly north, and farther north, the woods. the twelve cabins of the olympian gods are arranged in a semi circle, male gods on the left and female on the right. the minor gods' cabins are branched off of that, one wing for females, on for males.
the forest is mainly used for capture the flag, a popular game at camp. zeus' fist is a group of rocks there, and there is a creek.
traditions
there are a few war games that the camp regularly plays. capture the flag, which is a classic favorite, and chariot races, making a comback after a few, er, unfortunate, incidents.
when a camper serves themselves at a meal, they scrape the best part into a sacrificial fire.

each cabin of the olympians will have a senior camper. senior campers have either been at camp the longest or gone on the most quests. you may challenge senior campers, but that is not a frequent occurrence.
each cabin also has normal campers. there can be as many campers as can fit in the cabin
minor gods
you can head any minor gods' cabin, just make sure to okay it with me! these will not be as up-front as the olympian cabins, but are still there! these include hades, hestia and morpheus
