Back Story; Born and raised in Athens, Greece; Dimitri didn't think much of himself or his life other than he knew he always had a fascination for heritage. Often the trouble-maker, the young demi-god would break into historical landmarks during hours when they'd be closed to civilians and study the art as best as he could. Being hardwired for ancient Greek, he had no trouble understanding them. He was naturally restless most of the time and after the death of his mother decided to live on the go.


Instincts told him to travel to Mount Olympus, that he'd find all he'd need there at the mountain. It took him a year(what with resting and performing odd jobs for cash) but twelve year old arrived at the once sacred location of the Gods. Deciding to climb up the mountain, Dimitri found Silenus. A drunken Saytr who instantly recognized him as a demi-god. After some explanation, Silenus offered to train the boy and having found no other reason to deny the offer, Dimitri stayed.


Dimitri trained with the harsh and drunken satyr for four years. Despite the hardships, he was proud of the success he had gained through it all. He proved to be a skilled fighter, feeding off what often felt like unlimited adrenaline. He was a bred warrior and soon, training would not suffice him any longer.


By sixteen, the demi-god made his farewell with Silenus and continued on the journey for adventure that he had started so long ago. He traveled to Italy and other parts of Europe. He even made it all the way to the middle-east. There, he was able to fight harsher, angrier monsters of the dessert. He lived this way for five years until Silenus found him in Saudi Arabia looking distressed.

There was not a lot the Satyr could say other than some great prophecy was commencing. And While those directly connected to Olympus were involved, there was still a great deal Dimitri could do. In Afghanistan there was a giants forge, one shielded by the mist. The weapons there were being constructed for the purpose of the growing war to supply Kronos and his armies. They were even constructing a great weapon for the affair. Knowing that a group of giants would be far more difficult than the usual task, Silenus remained to give the demi-god training he had not expected to bestow on the young man. Though he couldn't be entirely sure without the God actually claiming him, Silenus had a hunch as to whom Dimitri's father could be. It would essential to mirror such strength and agility and while they might not have been 12 task, the Satyr was sure they'd be sufficient enough.


After slaying a hydra, and retrieving a mare of Diomedes from the Amazonians, the demi-god was ready. While those participating in the battle of Olympus were fighting in New York City, Dimitri was raging through the forges in Afghanistan before the great weapon was sent over. The battle had been rough, and despite having fought the hydra and the Amazonians it was still a great feat. Emerging the victor, Dimitri claimed the weapon as his own; a dagger when given nectar in the hilt would take the holder back a few minutes in time when the button was pushed.


With his mission completed and knowing that the war in New York had been won, Silenus informed of Dimitri of a new journey that would perhaps reveal more about the demi-god.

Currently;

After the battle for Olympus, Dimitri set off for America where Silenus said he'd find answers to himself. A few months later, following the Satyrs directions, he found himself at Camp Half-blood. He spoke with Chiron and explained to him about Silenus and his adventures, including the battle he had at the forges. With an invitation to stay at the camp, Dimitri followed the Centaur to the dining pavillion to ease his hunger from his travels. That night, in a flash of light the symbol of a club appeared over his head as the camp fire burned feverishly. It was then after all these years that Dimitri found out who his father was. The camp found itself presented with a son of Heracles or as the Romans called him; Hercules.

Like the other newly claimed, he constructed his own cabin hoping that perhaps whether in the far or near future a child of Heracles would feel welcomed when they found a cabin for their Godly parent already built. Since for now he is alone, he resides in the cabin though it should be noted he is not a camper. Instead, it had been agreed by Chiron and the Gods that Dimitri stay and share his stories and train the campers for battle and how to survive during quest.
