Markus Rowan Grabovska is the fifteen year old son of Dionysus, the Greek god of wine, parties, madness, and vines.
History[]
Background[]
Mark was born in Moscow, Russia on August 29th (Virgo) to Melanie Grabovska and the god Dionysus. Shortly after his birth, Mark and his mom decided to move to Williamsburg, Virginia, and Mark was raised there.
Early Life[]
For the first twelve years of his life, Mark was bullied for being extremely ADHD and for having dyslexia, traits of a demigod, and for having unusual purple eyes. His past is marked by his mother dieing from a seizure when he was ten. He was placed in foster care, and was part of a family that never fed him and only used him for the money. Mark was mostly close with his foster sister Millie, who was actually a demigod child of Athena, but when he was twelve, Millie's family married her off and Mark decided to run away. He ended up staying with Millie again, who had run away from ehr husband, and Millie took Mark to camp Half Blood.
Journey to Camp[]
Over his journey to camp, he was a confused twelve year old. Since Millie was seventeen and had been training at camp for twelve years, she was able to train and protect him. When at camp, Millie brought him to Chiron, and they found out that it was the summer solstice and that Dionysus would be back from the meeting at dinner.
Being claimed[]
Right as dinner started, Dionysus came back to camp, spotted Mark, and asked the camp why his son was there, claiming him in the process. Millie gave him a high five as Mark sat with his half-brothers Castor and Pollux. He became a year rounder, Millie being one too since neither wanted to go back home.
Meeting Savannah[]
Three years after he came to camp, Savannah Olsen arrived at camp and was suspected to be a big three kid. She was later claimed by Poseidon, and the two had a connection. Soon afterwards, they started dating and have been dating ever since.
