Percy Jackson/Riordan Universe OC

Name: Lyra Menzel
Gender: female
Sexuality: Pansexual
Zodiac sign: Leo
Age: 12-18 (Depends on the timeline, but the same age as Percy and Annabeth and such)
Godly Parent: Apollo (Greek)
Appearance: Lyra inherited most of her looks from her father; and therefore has an athletic build. She has olive-toned skin and gets even more tan during the summer, and her hair is blonde while her eyes are a bright blue.
She always seems to have a smile on her face,
and she usually prefers to wear her hair in a braid, and always ties it off with a red ribbon.

Crush: pretty much anybody who’s even mildly attractive to her. She will flirt with anybody.

Abilities: Like many of her siblings, Lyra is a skilled musician, being most proficient with string instruments such as the guitar, the violin, or the lyre. She has a light soprano voice, but can sing musical theater style if she wants.
As Apollo is the god of healing, Lyra can sense people’s pain when she touches them, and as long as she maintains physical contact, she can relieve said pain.
She can use the hymns of her father to heal people, but she isn’t nearly as good at it as her half-brother, Will Solace.

Preferred weapons: bow and arrows, and a short sword that more resembles a Roman Gladius.
If harnessing enough energy, she can also break glass with her voice and can cause hearing damage, but generally prefers not to.

Personality: Lyra generally has a very cheerful demeanor, and she loves to tease people and make them laugh, and if someone is upset, she won’t leave until she’s able to make them smile.
Behind the cheerful facade, she has very low self-esteem and oftentimes becomes depressed. Her unhealthy coping mechanism is self-deprecating humor. She cares deeply about her friends and family, especially her half-siblings, and she always tries to make friends with everybody. Including but not limited to Clarisse La Rue, Luke Castellan, and Nico Di Angelo.

Lyra’s best quotes: (my personal favorites):
“Pain is temporary. Cookies are forever.”

“Are you Will Solace or are you Won’t Solace?!”

“My biggest flex is that I knew Percy Jackson before it was cool.”

“Lyra cuddles cure hypothermia.”

“I excel at being annoying. It’s my best feature.”

“My dad is the god of healing, helping people is what I do. Besides; everybody can use a friend.”
