CAMP COUNSELOR
ACHELOIS
CLAIMED
Achelois, a minor moon goddess, is known for her ability to heal people of their ailments after receiving sacrifices ordered by the Dodonian oracle. The direct translation of her name is "she who washes away pain", which is the gift that has been bestowed upon her daughter. Amy cannot actually heal people, but she can negate their pain whenever she is in direct contact with them. So far she hasn't hit a limit on how much she can do, because she does not feel the pain herself when channeling it.
The only way for Amy to reach exhaustion levels is if she uses her power for several hours straight or on multiple people for an extended time. Fatigue, dizziness, and blackouts are the nasty side effects she experiences when she takes it too far. Luckily she tends to know her limits and only pushes it in emergency situations.
Because Achelois is a moon goddess, Amy can sometimes be a little stronger at night or on a full moon. At night she can heal through clothing instead of having to use skin to skin contact, but stronger lunar influences can allow her to use her power from up to five feet away. It isn't a great improvement, but it's something.

PAIN NEGATION
Kindness and compassion tend to rule Amy’s life, but don’t think for a second that she’s a pushover. She’s a lover, but she knows when it’s time to fight for what she loves. Living in a family that emphasizes the common good over the needs of one person has made her strong and self-reliant, though she can be a bit of a pacifist when it comes to her own personal wellbeing.
Being close to nature is one of Amy’s favorite things in the world, some of her hobbies including hiking and kayaking. The best time to do any outdoor activity is at night when she feels closer to her mother and more in her element. She may or may not be a night owl, preferring to sleep later in the morning whenever she can.
Amy does have some negative qualities, mostly because she can be stubborn and loyal to a fault. If you hurt her or someone she cares for in pretty much any capacity, the fight is on. She doesn’t tend to forgive or forget easily. Her devotedness to her friends can easily backfire on her and has on several occasions outside of camp, leaving her feeling used and abused. Still, love tends to win out and she tries to move on from that aspect of her life quickly.

PERSONALITY
Amy has her mother’s brown hair and her father’s green eyes, or so she’s been told. Her build is slightly athletic from all of her time hiking, but she isn’t very muscular or strong. It seems like no matter how hard she tries, she won’t be able to compete physically. Her small size does tend to give her a slight advantage though and she’ll take what she can get.
Generally she can be found in jeans and a t-shirt, or jean shorts when it gets hot. Amy doesn’t like dresses and won’t wear one unless it’s a super special occasion. The same goes for heels. Give her a good pair of tennis shoes or boots any day. Those things just aren’t practical.

GENERAL APPEARANCE
SHAILENE WOODLEY
Dr. Joseph Bryant needed a miracle and fast whenever he met Achelois, who at the time was going by the name Jessica Lois Armstrong. His only child, Clarissa, was dying from cancer at the age of fifteen and he had run out of options. Achelois heard his prayers in the nick of time, saving Clarissa in the middle of the night. After realizing who she was and what she had done for his small family, Joseph had a one night stand with the minor goddess. A few months later, a child was left on his doorstep with the explanation that she was Joseph's daughter.
Amaryllis didn't know who her real mother was growing up as the only information the family gave her was that her mother was not Adele. Still, she was a happy young lady who adored her father and step-mother. She frequently followed them to the small clinic that they ran, which is how she found out about her power. Adele, a nurse, had allowed her to hold Clarissa's hand while she received stitches from a minor accident when they realized that she wasn't feeling any pain despite the lack on anesthetic. Afterwards she was only allowed in the clinic under strict supervision so that no one would notice her powers.
The relatively happy family tended to spend a lot of time camping or doing other outdoor activities, something that Amy genuinely loved. Sometimes they would even leave the clinic in the capable hands of the other nurses and doctors that frequented it and go on trips abroad to administer medical care to those in need. Being in these places really drove home her purpose in life and made her appreciate her gift, especially in areas where pain medication was sparse and they could pass off sugar tablets as high powered drugs.
At the age of 13, Amaryllis was sent to Camp Half-Blood after her father realized she couldn't control her powers and her friends were catching on. She never quite got in to the fighting and the war games as much as some of the other campers, mostly because she tended to lose and lose badly, but she was more than happy to help patch people up afterwards.
