Personality[]
Jillian's shy and quiet at first, but after getting to know someone will open up and be quite cheerful and talkative. While previously she wasn't great at human interaction (often making social blunders that she didn't understand), she's learned a lot during her time at Camp. She always wants to help everyone she can - sometimes at her own expense.
Jillian's had a rough past, and does have high anxiety and also depression, partially as result of abuse during her childhood. She was often terrified of other people's anger, or anger in general, as well as loud noises - but she has gotten less susceptible through therapy. Nowadays, her fears instead typically surround her appearance, particularly her scarring. When anxious , she's comforted by physical contact from those she trusts (hugs, etc.).
As a result of her anxiety and upbringing, Jillian still sometimes feels and acts like a younger girl. She can be distracted from her fear and worries by curiosity and excitement, and has a few traits of a younger girl than she is. But in the new environment of Camp Half-Blood, with good friends and supporters for the very first time, she's really growing up into the kind of person she wants to be.
History[]
Jillian Ray, daughter of Astraeus, grew up in a very difficult household in Vancouver, Canada, avoiding a violent mother and stepfather while taking care of herself, and later her stepbrother. After an attack on her house from a Scythian Dracaena that left it in pieces, she was taken by her stepfather to the road by Camp Half-Blood, and left to fend for herself with nothing more than her toothbrush and toothpaste, a package of Jellybeans, a spare set of clothes along with the ones she was wearing, and her childhood toy, a stuffed three-headed hydra named Tooth. Mystified and a little bit scared, she entered Camp Half-Blood, with no idea of what would happen next.
In late April 2019, Jillian went missing, along with fellow camper Kara Rudikoff and Automaton Edith Mark 1. She reappeared in January 2020 with no memory of time having passed. Since then, she continued to train and refine her powers.
In late July 2021, Jillian was gravely injured by an explosive arrow during a large conflict in one of the training arenas. After much physiotherapy and a difficult recovery, she was still able to walk and move as she had before the incident, but much of the left side of her body was left covered in burn scars. Only after years of healing and further treatment does she now feel comfortable showing her face again, which now has scarring akin to a large birthmark.
Jillian is currently age 19.
Powers[]
- While exploring camp for the first time at night, Jillian found that she could see in all directions if she tried. (Passive)
- In a practice battle with Kaito Shinichi, Jillian unexpectedly found herself able to bend gravity to her will.(Supplementary)
- After practice, Jillian learned how to manipulate gravity to allow herself to jump and glide far through the air, and even fly. She first exhibited this in a practice match with Gypsy Bently.
- By the time she arrived to the major battle at the training arena in June 2021, she had mastered summoning a weapon made of plasma, focusing a powerful beam of plasma, generating an orbit around herself, creating a small cluster of stars to block incoming attacks, and summoning a physical construct based on a constellation.
- After recovering from her injuries, Jillian redoubled her training efforts, and unlocked her greatest power - the ability to mimic the characteristics of a planet's surface, be it aflame like Mercury or gaseous like Jupiter.
- Since having fully physically recovered, Jillian continued training, and mastered the remainder of her available powers as a child of Astraeus.
