SPECIAL POWERS & ABILITIES Jake is a rather powerful demigod. When someone is asleep, Jake gets sucked into their dreams, he has no choice, the only things he knows of to break the connection is for them to awaken, to have a closed door between them (kinda wierd) or for him to get far enough away from the victim (depends on intensity of the dream). He has been experimenting with his powers, and can occasionally pull out of the dream, but also can change the dream to his will, but both takes tremendous effort, as in almost dying from fatigue . He is also discovering a new ability to be able to focus his energy on a person and slowly put them to sleep, but again, it is really new and unreliable. This ability is new to him and can rarely do it, but can affect those around him by making them tired when he wills it. He can also glimpse into the dream world that his father created which is unheard of. Only pure dreams may pass into Demos Oneiroi but Jake can see into the world.

Mary-Ann Farrows---39
SIBLINGS None
OTHER IMPORTANT PEOPLE
Henry Lastings---45 [Married to his mother]
ORIGIN New York City
HISTORY Jake was born in a hippie van when his mother was on an across america band tour. Jake's mom, Mary-Ann was part of a band when she was in her twenties and during their tour she met a man that appeared to be charming, little did she know that he was quite the difference from what met the eye. Morpheus and Mary-ann, after a couple months of dating and fine dining that Jake's mother wasn't use to they decided to "pull the goalie" and shortly after Mary-Ann's pregnancy Morpheus left her all of a sudden. Before he left he was decent enough to explain the future of the child and her life after the birth, he gave her the choice of an abortion, she declined and fully accepted the new life she would have once the child was born. It was a shame that in that Van, Jake used his powers for the first time and accidentally put the driver to sleep causing the Van to crash.
In New York, Jake was having a touch time paying attention in school. He had transfered from school to school since he was 5. His mother being the one who transfered him from school to school. The monsters, which she was warned of from Morpheus, were catching on to the poor demigod. In turn, this left Jake with an inconstant environment. By the time he was nine, he was skipping school altogether, the thinning fog was allowing the monsters to find him quicker, and by october in the school year, he had transfered schools three times due to monsters posing as teachers and students. Jake, who was clueless didn't understand what was happening blamed his mother, he had no friends, no social life and no real explanation why.
Mary-Ann told him of his real father when he turned 11. She explained everything form when she was in the van to the transferring of the schools. She knew that by telling him, it would put him in further harm, but when he was attacked by a banshee, she thought it was the right time to tell him why he keeps failing english and why he often finds himself in seeing images of peoples dreams. The images started when he was 9, it originally was just a picture or two of someone's dreams, as his powers built within him, he started to see scenes and eventually started to be sucked into the dreams by the time he was 11. His teachers who weren't monsters blamed his ADHD or just said he was day dreaming. Mary-Ann found out on that day she sat him down and explained it, including the fact that Mrs. Powell was actually a banshee. The monster attacks and numbers were growing and become out of control that week. Mary-Ann was relieved when the guardian satyr came to take him to Camp Half Blood.
The first two years he spent at camp, he only stayed the summer. His loneliness was replaced with new friends who could relate with him and he was slowly learning about his powers. Jake was happy wit his powers and found them cool, he could see glimpses into peoples dreams. When he was 14, he was hitting puberty slowly, his powers were starting to kick in and he didn't have control over them. He was being sucked into peoples dreams and nightmares being forced to witness them leaving him unconscious in his body and in the background of other people's dreams. Mary-Ann, decided it would be best for him to stay at camp all year to lear how to control his powers better. Jake accepted his mothers words and was happy to not be scared of being though crazy or endangered by monsters. If he had went through the streets and there was a sleeping hobo in a shelter, Jake would be sucked up into the dream, he would be free lunch for any passing by monster.
Jake slowly learned the limitations of his powers, if there was a door separating him from a sleeping person, he would be unaffected by their dreams. he also learned that his father wasn't abandoning him after all. He was trying to help him develop and control his powers as well, of coarse through his dreams they communicated. When jake was 15, he started to see some visions of dreams from the future, a gift or a curse from his dad. He was in touch with his mother still and was glad to hear that she was marrying, it gave Jake hope, he never thought she got over Morpheus. Jake attended the wedding that summer, and approved of her choice, they were perfect for each other. Jake was slowly forgotten by his mom and step-dad, the letters and calls came to a halt. Jake tried not to take it seriously but he couldn't help it. He trained hard with his spear to try and please his other parent. Jake pushed his old life away to embrace his demigod self. He gave up on his mortal parents. Jake worked hard for the years he was at camp. On his 16th birthday, his mortal parents forgot and left hi stud up on the bud stop. On his way back to camp, Morpheus himself presented him with a gift. jake was surprised that his father would actually see him and was actually happy. He got his very own charmed spear, it would tire the enemy quickly and even put them to sleep depending on the wound. Jake was truly happy, more so than he had been in a while. He had a good story to tell his friends.

Jake gasped for air. He could feel his lungs exhaling and inhaling at an alarming rate. He scowled at the practice dummy. He doubled over still trying to find his breathe, jake could feel the now growing pain in his side. He tried to straighten himself out but to no avail. He threw his spear to the ground and collapsed next to it. He at on the moist ground for what felt like eternity but knew it was more like ten seconds. He looked up and wiped a drop of sweat off his brow and looked at the dummy once more. He really hated the thing. What was the point of a target that didn't move or fight back. Jake reached for the shaft of the spear. He felt the firm wood and gave it a squeeze as he hauled himself up to stand.
Jake also hated camp weapons, you never knew what had touched them. He smiled as he could see the ruined dummy, he could tell that he had done the job. He gave one last sneer to the dummy and walked to the weapon rack. He placed the spear carefully in it's position. He contemplated the maneuvers he used and why they worked. He laughed out loud when he realized if the dummy could move the out come would have been difficult, but Jake still tried his hardest, even though he knew all he had to do was jab and it would hit the target, he still pretended he was in an actual battle. Jake picked up his towel he had brought down with him. He wiped his forehead and started to jog up to his cabin. He looked at the lowering sun.
Jake ran up the steep hill that was on the path to his cabin. He cursed himself for staying to long at the training arena. He would have to choose between having a shower before or after dinner. If he took a shower before dinner, he would be late and probably punished. On the other hand he could go straight down to eat and have a shower later. Jake scrunched up his face as he guessed how much he would smell. He passed by a group of first year campers. He nodded his head as he made his decision. What is the worst they can punish me for? maybe kitchen duty? He thought as he passed the Apollo cabin which had its door open. Jake stopped in his tracks as he could feel the instant pull of someone's dream. He could clearly see the camper on the bunk bed near the door. Jake cursed the gods as he tried to run and close the door to stop the dream from reaching him. Jake ran frantically as he slowly lost his vision and started to see the dream the camper dreamed. Jake's fingers went numb but as his fingers touched the doorknob he collapsed and was forced to witness the Apollo camper continuously make out with Chiron. Jake's unconscious body shuddered on the grass. He tried to pull himself out of the dream with no avail.
