Camille Marie Prayer

Camille Marie Prayer is a character created by CamilleWinds. She is one of the two main protagonists in the book ''Lady Caspian. '' Camille was born as a Titan, but did not discover her abilities until a bad accident on a hiking trip that nearly cost her legs. The only reason that her parents were able to find young Camille was because her soon-to-be owl companion Apollo guided them to her. After this incident, Cami and Apollo were practically inseparable. Her parents knew that there was something different about their daughter, but didn't know what until a few years later when she became a teenager and began to shapeshift in the middle of the night. Then, they finally realized that their daughter was a Titan, a rare creature that had been thought to have died out long ago. Over time, she learned how to control the shifting, and it no longer was a problem.

As soon as she became an adult and went off to college, Titans began to lash out and cause much harm to the people around them. This happened very suddenly, and for no apparent reason. Luckily for Camille, she was not among humans when she suddenly shifted and had her own fit. But regardless, a year passed with near constant attacks, and the government officially ruled Titans a threat to society. Anyone who reported a Titan could get a cash reward for doing so. Camille, afraid for her freedom, quit college and went back to her parents, hoping that she could wait out the storm. But it came to her. One of her classmates reported her to the officials, and Camille was taken custody at a special prison made for Titans. Apollo, too, was separated from her and sent away.

Camille wouldn't spend much time in jail before the source of the Titan's blow-up was located. A creature called Caspian, thought to be a myth, who controlled Titans. With this news, the police devised a plan. Allow the Titans to leave prison and be free, on the condition that they go and kill Lady Caspian. There were no hard feelings on the idea of killing Caspian. A few feared, though, that they may lose their lives on the mission. But with no other option, they agreed to the plan.

Training happened on the go, with the help of Detective Gray, an officer who had stepped up to lead the Titans against Caspian. On this trip, Camille remained to herself, never being a very social person. Only one person did Camille really talk to, and that person was Atlas Nathan Prayer, the last Pureblood Titan. He, like her, remained rather distant from the others. Perhaps this was why they began to grow close. On the third night, he takes her into the Core- a special object shared by the Pureblood Titans that allows them to connect to one another.

Days later, the time of killing Lady Caspian has come, and things... don't go as planned...
