THE REAL SOUL BENEATH
mischevious
patrick's favourite thing in life is causing a little mischief and mayhem to leave his calling card for those that follow after him. in a moment of boredom, he tends to make trouble for random people who wander by, though never enough to cause any physical harm. however, if you ever cross his path and annoy him, then you should be wary of where you walk next. being the son of the roman messenger god, this little devil loves to find you in places you didn't even know others knew about.
brotherly
despite his neutral stand on the whole 'army of darkness' thing, patrick is incredibly guilty for taking on the role of the older brother and accepting the students who seem lost and out of their element at the school. in truth, he rarely leaves anyone to fend for themselves if he knows that they are not adjusting to the change, and takes them under his wing. this has given him a good relationship with a fair number of students, and the approval of his father, which has always pleased him.
cocky
sometimes patrick is prone to being rather arrogant in his ability to pull pranks and annoy the people who bother him, which includes many of the jocks who think like stereotypical jocks, and the bubbleheaded girls who might as well be cheerleaders. obviously there are alliances between those at the school, and since he stands right in the middle of it all, he rather enjoys mocking those who support the underworld, though they are few in number on a public scale.
street-smart
being the son of the god who helps to protect travelers, patrick has always found himself able to get where he wants to be without consulting a map or asking for directions. he rarely needs to see the place itself, for his natural sense of direction leads him right where he wants to go with no trouble at all. this causes a little unease with some people, who might not fully trust him, but it is perhaps one of his best qualities when avoiding conflict or going on an adventure.
free-spirited
the old expression is that rules are made to be broken, and most of the time, patrick couldn't agree more. it's not like he breaks them on purpose, but he simply doesn't see the point of some of the rules that are in place and so ignores them as if they do not exist at all. this can include skipping his classes, not bothering to train himself in the after hours and sometimes not putting his full effort into studying on his ancient monsters and myths, for he believes that unless the gods wish for you to find the school, you never will.
lazy
he has never really been drawn to the idea of studying or working out when told to, for he believes that physical labour is some kind of punishment when it becomes expected of you. yes, he's know to hit the gym every so often, but other times patrick is perhaps the biggest couch potato at mt. olympus high. he likes to watch television like a mortal kid would, and resents when people demand that he engage in a sparring match with him. on his own time, laying in the grass is one of his favourite things to do.
soft-hearted
if there is one thing that patrick cannot stand, it is watching someone struggle emotionally. he has a bit of a soft spot for those who find it difficult to adjust to their new lives at the school, and hates bullies with a passion. generally, this leads to arguements and even fights with the children of ares, anubis and hephaestus among others, who often portray themselves as being rather high and mighty above the rest of those with immortal blood in their veins. but watch out, because if he's ever ticked off, then this boy will attack with a vengence to rival athena!
A PIECE OF ANCIENT HISTORY
born and raised on long island, patrick grew up with his mortal mother, clarisse mahon, and believed that he was nothing more than a normal boy. sure, he wasn't overly loud or anything, but he was the kind of kid who noticed a lot of what happened and did something about it in such a sneaky manner that nobody knew he had anything to do with it afterward. it was perhaps his first sign of being a little different as a child, having the ability to run and take things or cause a little mayhem for someone without them noticing. though he thought it was a little odd, it wasn't enough to make him think about it too hard, and so he continued living his life with his mother until the time of his twelfth birthday. but then, his letter came, and patrick learned the truth of who he was.
angry at having been lied to all his life, he packed his things and left for the school without a word to his mother, whom he has not seen or spoken to since his arrival almost five years ago. he holds a deep and terrible grudge against her for having lied to him, believing that no mother should keep such a secret from their child, no matter who they are and what risks are involved. because of this, he shows little desire to be who he truely is, and almost resents his father, the roman god mercury as well for the sense of abandonment he had felt all his life. when he passes his father, he gives a curt nod and carries on his way, and has yet to speak to him at all.
