Personality (beta)

Due to belonging to a retired sailor prior to her family's departure from Australia, she has a fairly distinct sailor's accent. Despite sounding rough, however, Athena enjoys slight teasing and is overall very cool and calm, with that level-headedness carrying over into her missions as a Pup Cadet. Nevertheless, she can become very serious when an argument or some other kind of disagreement arises. She has a knack for climbing trees, and works spectacularly with wild animals, including those far larger than herself.

Biography (beta)

The following was written on the 24th of September 2019 on Athena's PAW Patrol Fanon Wiki page.

Athena's parents, Venus and Hercules, were primarily strays, but were caught by the dog catchers and bought by a sailor who had retired a few years ago, but he would still take his dogs for a ride in his boat. Hercules and Venus gave birth to twin girls, Savannah and Athena. Savannah was very bossy and determined, whereas Athena took a calmer, cooler approach to things. The two girls got along well, except for rare occasions when Savannah would tease here sister a little. They both loved climbing and wild animals, and would often run off to play with them while their owner and parents weren't watching them. One day, the sailor was diagnosed with cancer and died, leaving the dogs to fend for themselves, but the dog catchers were after them. They had to leave. Thankfully, the sailor had taught Hercules how to pilot a boat, so they took their beds, some food and some chew-toys, and set off. They were planning to go to the USA, the closest country to them that spoke English, but when they got there, they realized that the dog catchers were even fiercer there than back home, so they changed course for England. They had to adjust themselves to the times of day, but they managed to cope with it. Finally, 2 days after all their food was gone, they got to England. They went around, asking if someone wanted to take them in, but everybody just shunned them away. They were forced to live on the streets, but they came across a murderous dog gang led by a big Dingo that ripped them up to shreds. Athena escaped, but their parents didn't make it. Savannah also made it, but got lost in the city. They were injured, and had no one to look after them. Fortunately, a small band of kind street dogs led by Opaque found Athena, and looked after her until they joined the Pup Cadets, but Savannah's fate is yet unknown.

Personal Blurb

One thing that kind of annoys me about Athena's old backstory (other than how overly dramatic it was, of course), is something I've already brought up when it comes to Fennec, that being that her sister Savannah is probably very much alive, and I literally have a pup meant to, you know, search for missing people and pups, but that never came to be for some strange reason. Another thing is that I just never used her much, I guess? It makes sense, I never wrote anywhere near enough stories to appropriately feature each pup in an important role, but it is kind of sad. I might give her some new stories at some point, but I'm a bit too excited about Amushana right now, especially since that's several years older than any Pup Cadets stuff I've made, so we'll just have to wait and see.
