Looks
Hair: He literally just lops it off when it gets to long. Usually he just leaves it to flop to the side, not having time for a buzz cut; considering he doesn't give a crap what he looks like, it usually shows in his hair. His light blonde hair is almost never combed.

Dressing Style: In whatever is comfortable, really; armor when he's training, but most of the time it's a simple t-shirt and shorts. His idea of formal is a button down and khakis, and he's fairly certain that he will never wear a tie in his life. He would be the kind of guy who shows up at his wedding in worn jeans, to be quite honest.
General Appearance: He's handsome; tall and well-built. Like his sister, he isn't extremely skinny, yet isn't muffin-topped. People would looks at him and not see any muscle, purely because he's just stronger that he looks. He has nothing to show for all his training, so people take him for granted.
What Makes Them Them
Personality Description: At first glance, what you would see is someone who sleeps all the time and is obsessed with the Internet. At second glance, you would see a guy who doesn't really care and is laid back to the point where he has no backbone. A few glances later, and you would see that he takes charge when the situation calls for it. You would also see his interest, his sarcastic wit; being extremely hard to offend, he will insult you at the drop of a dime, sarcastic or not. If you were to insult them, he would either start bursting out laughing or just roll his eyes and give you, "you're an idiot" sort of look. As for his interest, mythology of different sorts - as well as anything having to do with war - interests him. He often throws out random facts about them because he studies them so much.
He's anti-social as all get out. Was never interested in girls - or guys - in any way, and is therefor constantly pried open by his sister to see who he likes. And that's another aspect of his personality - no matter how annoying his family is, he is protective as all get-out. They can't do so much as wear a skirt without him checking e length to make sure guys don't get the wrong idea. And if someone ever hurt anyone, he would be willing to settle the score with a fight. Which brings me to his fighting; he isn't always lazy. He just chooses to be active in short bursts as opposed to a long amount of time. Unless he gets angry, because then he'll be hacking at a dummy for hours.
Likes: Johnny Cash, Weird Al, P.O.D., music in general, his sister [secretly], sleeping, the Internet, being lazy, reading, writing, myths, random war facts.
Dislikes: People, love songs, repeated sounds, stupidity, being made a fool of, being forced to do something, dressing up.
Fears: Afraid of falling, mildly afraid of fire, and generally all monster stories creep him out and such.
Secrets: He slept with a nightlight until he was thirteen.
Ambitions: To write a book, to join the millitary, to complete college.
Powers: Decent healer, decent fighter.
Family and History
Personal History: Music had always been an important part of his life. Starting when Apollo fell for Elizabeth Rhianne Smith; she was in her job at a café when Apollo was amused by her humming and decided to ask her out. After several dates and drinks, Elizabeth was pregnant. She named the boy Joshua because she liked the name, that was all there was too it; several years of dating Apollo on and off later, she had another baby. This one she named Amber, because that was that. Soon, Apollo vanished. When Amber was two and Josh was six, she married Jeffery James.
Music continued to hold the world up when Jeffery left them a mere six years later; Josh and Amber were so close to him that they had changed their last names to fit his. Josh played music in his room - whether loudly or just in headphones - to drown out the sounds of his sister crying late at night. Part of him didn't understand why she was so upset, considering they still saw him on weekends, but another part of him was utterly pissed at Jeffrey for making his sister that way. Either way, he didn't notice how hard Amber was working too keep things together when Elizabeth took up going to college for a Nursing degree and stopped paying attention to them.
A year later, music helped him through his rehab. His feet were so flat that he had to go in for surgery, both at once. He was in bed for almost a year while Amber basically took care of him. Caring, but still not realizing the toll it took on Amber, he took her company for granted and thought nothing of her help.
When Amber came and told them a story of a satyr that had come to the house, he was sure she was insane; perhaps she had finally snapped? But alas, Elizabeth told them the sad truth and drove them to Camp Half-Blood on a term that Amber was never aware of - Josh had to look out for her, said his mother. It was the only reason they were allowed to spend summers there, and his sister never was the wiser.
Without the comfort of a parent, Josh quickly toughened up to insults and all things he would not have been exposed to at home. He enjoyed the food and his comfy bed in the Apollo cabin. The classes were fun and he attended most of them eagerly - all the while keeping his promise to his mother, not even realizing that he had failed and everything has fallen apart for his sister. Yet how would he know?
Mortal Parent: Elizabeth Rhianne Smith, alive, nurse.
Other Family: Amber, sister, alive. Jeffery, previous step dad, alive.
And Finally...
I, Aries, have made this entirely up. I did not rip somebody else’s application from any site, and have followed the rules accordingly.
And…? Yes.
