Looks::Allan is a muscular individual with a bronze tan, light brown hair. He is 6'4". Usually he wears basic street cloaths, with a heavy Leather Apron over them, with multiple tools of his trade attached, as well as sheaths for his weapons. Allan has a Rather ugly scar crossing his face above the bridge of his nose, and multiple smaller scars up and down his arms. Other than that, Allan is rather good looking. Usually, Allan can be seen carying a large hammer, not as a weapon, but with his trade, just another tool of his trade. Allan wears a amulet around his neck. The amulet is a round disk with the symbol of a Anvil with two hammers crossed over it, his family crest on his mothers side of the family
Personality::Allan is a lot like the weapons he creates, strong, but dangerous. Allan, thanks to his father, and like most of his half brothers, is skilled in weapons, and weapons making, making him physically strong, and has a sharp eye for deatails. He has to be in order to detect flaws in the weapons he makes.
Allan has a strong sense of Honor and loyalty, pushing himself to help others, even taking in people who need help.
Thanks to his training, he is highly proficient in swords of all kinds, but prefers Heavier such as Great swords and Long swords. He has accuracy with a bow, though is not exactly up to the standards of someone like Rei with his accuracy, though he can hit a target with a decent amount of skill. He is skilled with the battle axe, the mace, the spear, and the flail, and many midevil weapons.
Allan tends to be as tough mentally as the materials he works with, earning him his nickname. Some times, he can be as hard to deal with as cooled steel, but at other times, he can be as flexable as steel that has come out of the fire. Allan is dependable to his friends, but he can be a nightmare when he is your enemy. If he does not like you, keep your weapons where you can see them at all times, and don't use any he made. They could break just when you need them during practice.
Family::Other than his father, his family on his mothers side is composed of black smiths. It is thought to be unusual that Haphestus chose a woman bearing the last name of His Roman counterpart, but because of the connection to black smithy, it is not mentioned.
History::
From an early age, Allan has been trained by his mothers side of the family in England to do Blacksmith work. Sinse a young age, they could see that Allan had the skill, and wondered at it. His mother kept the identity of his father a secret from her family. Allan became a skilled craftsman at an early age, still not knowing the identity of his father.
In the beginning, Allan worked as an apprentice to his uncle, before he could lift the hammer and tongs, Allan worked stoking the fires of the forge, bringing the water, or bringing metal for his Uncle to work with. Over time, this helped him to become strong. Later, when he finally took up the hammer, it helped him to become stronger both physically and mentally.
Like many demi Gods, Allan has had many strange encounters, that he later discovered were encounters with monsters. One time, during when he was an apprentice, while he was tending his fathers shop, A large individual had entered, and trashed the shop completly. Allan could have sworn the man had one eye. It was later blamed on a gas main leak.
Allans family eventually moved back to america, taking their trade with them, working in the country where their skills were more needed. Things settled down for him monster wise for the time being.
When Allan turned 20, Allan became a licensed master of the art. When that happened, The sign of his father came to him in the forge, as well as to his mother. This is when his mother told him about his legacy, and who his father was. He agreed to go to Camp half blood at her request, if not to meet those like him. Allan was indecicive about going, until the return of the one eyed man, the cyclopse. After seeing another shop destroyed, Allan realised it might be better if he left. Sinse then, he has wondered who this cyclopse is, and why he attacks shops like this. He eventually plans to find out. Because of this, Allan has a dislike of cyclopses, though that feeling has been lessening around Percy's half brother.
Sinse his arival at camp half blood, he took part in the battle for Manhattan, fought in a large number of Capture the flag games, and has had a great time with the other campers, though as a minor player. He as of yet has no interests other than working on weapons and fighting. Now, the fates have moved him foward. What help can he provide to the others?

Name/Nickname::David, but I go by the online name Usam
Roleplaying Experience::8 years, with recent LARP
Sample RP::
Allan steped up to the lines formed outside the Forest, Blue helmet on his head, grinning like a mad man, and ready for battle, even if it is only a game of capture the flag. He wore armor of his own design, and a shield with his family crest on it.
"Red team is going down. There is no way Anabeth will beat us this time."
Allan said with a grin. When the signal was given, Allan moved into the woods. As he was moveing along, Allan did not encounter many campers, but he knew they were nearby.
"This will be cakewalk."
Suddenly, one of the Aries campers steped from around a tree. No words were spoken as both fighters raised their weapons, and moved in towards each other. The unnamed Aries camper lifted his sword, and struck, Allan parried with his shield and then used his shield to shield bash his oponent, knocking him off ballance. The Aries camper fell to the ground, but quickly got back up, angry. The two fighters traded blows, going back and fourth, neither making headway in combat, until the Aries fighter gave Allan an opening. Kicking out with his foot, Allan struck the shield, knocking it out of the way, and brought it up to his oponent's throat. With that, the fight was over, but in the distance, the signal for the end of the game sounded.
"Drat, fighting this guy kept me from finding their flag. Oh well."
With an offered hand, Allan helped the Aries fighter back to his feet. The Aries fighter skulked off in defeat, leaving a victorious Allan. He might have not gotten the flag, but he won a small victory that day.
