Edmonia Lewis also known as Wildfire, was a Black and Mississauga Ojibwe sculptor. She was born in upstate New York but most of her career was spent in Italy. She moved to Boston in 1864, and upon seeing a statue of Benjamin Franklin, though not having the words to articulate it, came to the conclusion she could make one of these herself. With difficulty, she found an instructor in Edward Augustus Bracket, who was a moderately successful artist specializing in marble portraiture, mostly of abolitionists. She was given pieces of sculpture to copy, crafted her own sculpting tools and began crafting her own work. While the reason has never been disclosed, her relationship with her teacher ended badly, and they split ways. But having her own studio, she could now hold her own solo exhibition. Her success allowed her to go to Rome in 1866.
"I was practically driven to Rome in order to obtain the opportunities for art culture, and to find a social atmosphere where I was not constantly reminded of my color. The land of liberty had no room for a colored sculptor."
She was given space to work in the studio of Hiram Powers and rubbed shoulders with other expatriates in Rome, eventually established her own studio space. She would spend the majority of her career in Rome which suited her as a Catholic and a racialized women in a country with less overt racism.
In her later career, she worked more and more on religious work for Catholic patrons, and like many woman and racialized black people, history began to forget her and little is known about her late life. She lived in Paris, France from 1896 to 1901 then moved to the Hammersmith area of London England. She died there of kidney failure September 17th 1907. Edmonia's work is powerful with strong figures that recall the Greek masters, but with a sensitivity for her subjects that feels incredibly contemporary (as seen in The Arrowmaker). She walked a thin and careful line as a black-indigenous woman of means and a black-indigenous woman making art, and making art that so often depicted marginalized peoples. And she did suffer for it before she left for Europe. If you'd like to read more about Edmonia, and her life and see her works:

N for the OC ask?
Also I am in awe of how much effort you've been putting into your cabin 7 OCs <3
Aah, thanks, Moth! Honestly it's mostly me digging myself a way too deep rabbit hole so I can keep all Will and Apollo’s references to other Apollo kids straight in my fics, although I am semi-seriously considering joining the pile of “Will’s time at camp” fics, which of course I need a lot of Apollo kid OCs for (thank you, Apollo, for being so prolific...)
OC Alphabet Soup - send me a letter and I’ll talk about an OC whose name starts with it
Another Cabin Seven kid coming right up; there's actually a couple beginning with N, so I'll just pick one for now, but if I get another 'N' ask... there's more! For all Cabin Seven kids, I’m doing the same basic format, including an image generated by rinmaru’s mega fantasy avatar maker because while they’re not perfect to how they are in my head… they’re close enough, so here we go!
*disclaimer, this particular kid does appear in canon but he's never named; this is me giving information to a Random Background Kid this time around.
N is for... NATHAN LISTER
Tumblr media
Pronouns: He/Him Date of Birth: 27th March 1994 Parents: Apollo and Jackie Lister (a baseball coach from Alabama, USA) Etymology: Nathan - gift of god. Lister - son of the arrowmaker from Scottish Gaelic Mac an Fleisdeir (and, yes, also a reference to ‘Lester’) Years at CHB: 2007-2009 (Year-Rounder) Status: Died aged 15 during the Battle of Manhattan Inherited Domains: Archery*, Music, Poetry, Healing
Nathan is a loud, often overconfident individual.  During his first summer at camp, he took part in the chariot races as the Apollo cabin’s driver and made the mistake of goading Annabeth and Percy (”You’re mine!” the driver from Apollo yelled.  He was a first-year camper.  I didn’t remember his name but he sure was confident. - The Titan’s Curse, ch.19).  He can also be rather arrogant and cocky, and isn’t likely to back down from an argument - it’s reasonably common for him to be the reason disagreements continue instead of settling down and reaching a conclusion.  Lee kept him under control reasonably well, but once Michael took over and they entered the feud with the Ares cabin over the chariot, he was one of the more vocal aggressors.  His mother finds his attitude difficult to handle, largely because hers isn’t that dissimilar, so he stays at camp year-round with occasional trips home to visit.  It also stops him being kicked out of various schools for his confrontational attitude.  He is, however, very loyal to his family (especially his half-siblings) and will always take their side (unless it’s an internal agreement, in which case he takes no-one’s side, usually telling all involved parties they’re being idiots).
Like all of his half-siblings, Nathan has a degree of healing ability.  It’s not particularly powerful, but it’s useful enough in a pinch and can keep people alive long enough for the stronger healers to arrive.  He has an innate sense for triage, but terrible bedside manner.  He’s one of the Apollo kids capable of casting rhyming curses, and is incredibly willing to do so if provoked.  Nathan also has a solid sense of rhythm and plays the bass guitar; his singing voice is pleasant to listen to.
Nathan’s primary inherited ability is his aim.  He’s good at any sort of ranged weapon (or sport; he’s particularly good at baseball, likely due to his mother bringing him along to her coaching sessions as a kid), and like most Apollo kids openly favours the bow.  He prefers a composite recurve, much like those used in Ancient Greece, but is capable with longbows and modern recurves as well.
He was killed in the Battle of Manhattan at Williamsburg Bridge (16th August 2009), when Hellhounds dragged him away (Hellhounds leaped ahead of the line from time to time. Most were destroyed with arrows, but one got hold of an Apollo camper and dragged him away. I didn't see what happened to him next. I didn't want to know. - The Last Olympian, ch.11)

From Linda Lee Greene Author/Artist Arrowmaker, a Chippewa, also known as Ojibwe, brave 1903 I am always in search of ways to connect with my Cherokee roots, and in that effort, I belong to several Facebook groups centered on Native American history and lifeways, both past and present.

fuck it b.tb s/i lore dump
(EXTREMELY long post under the cut. sincerely. genuinely. i wrote a novel. also, spoilers)
born Jane Child (in some legal documents its spelled as Jane C.hilde cause yknow how spelling was just straight up not standardized back then) sometime in the late 1400s (the date im using is 1490 but that could change very easily.
mildly poor family, not exactly peasants but tradesmen by birth. blacksmiths, carpenters, etc.
bc their family was yknw. lower class. they started studying/training to work very early on since it was necessary for them to help support their family since they very likely wouldnt get much from marrying. so between like 11-14 years old they started studying under a local midwife and eventually became apprenticed to her.
eventually became pretty good at it and started doing it on their own in early adulthood. became known as trustworthy, clean, and supportive.
married at around eighteenISH. to a man named nicholas fletcher, who was (huge surprise) a generational arrowmaker. his family had passed down a shop... or something.. for generations.
they were definitely bi and nb the entire time but bc of the restrictions of the era they never reaaaally realized it. jane and nicholas were never really. in love. there was no hate or anything they cared about each other very much but they were more best friends than anything else. in fact they probably never actually said i love you to each other like. ever.
bore a son that same year, who would be named bartholomew fletcher. barty for short :-)
stuff happens etc etc and they eventually get Ye Olde 15th Century Callout Post and accused of beign a witch by a noblewoman and was executed for it aroooouuund 1511-1516ish.
these next few points will be presented in greentext format bc i think its the funniest possible way to explain it
>be me, simple english midwife wrongly executed for witchcraft >spend the next several centuries in a dreamless slumber underground >wake up randomly one day >whole council of Shadowy Figures is standing over me >they explain ive been chosen for a "special purpose" and its an "honor" >mfw
Tumblr media
>they ask me if ill go to the surface to find some dude they claim used to work for him but went insane and got too "dangerous to the veil" to keep around >dont understand but say okay anyway cause anything is better than being underground any longer >get up there, everything is weird and bright and different now >realize i have weird burns on my face from being burnt at the FUCKING stake >they (the shadow figures) told me no one can know what im doing so find a passable mask in a thrift shop >random child is walking on the street alone, apparently lost >help her home bc im dead, not a bad person >disappear before her mom sees >days pass, im at the city center >drew up my own wanted posters for the guy bc i have no clue where else to start >a group of people starts staring at me >look to see why >its the same FUCKING child i walked home days ago >she recognized the dumbass mask >whyaretheyinclownmakeup.jpeg >runaway.jpeg >think i escaped cleanly but they find me from the wanted poster >try to think of a lie on the spot but instead i claim im a janitor >a janitor. at a park. >claim the guy was wanted for trespassing and being a general nuisance >they seem to buy the story and leave >FINALLY find the bastard whos behind all this >pull out the magic bigass chain i got given by the Creepy Shadow People >thisisntevenmyfinalform.jpeg >he pulls out an even bigger hammer >ohfuck.jpeg >he homeruns me through a goddamn WALL. >end up landing next to the same weird clownpeople who almost figured me out the first time >apparently the guy merked their boss ??? >explain the story to them and theyre weirdly cool about it >decide to take a psychological approach, go back down underground and ask for the fun special book with everyones entire life story in it >ohoho ive got you now motherfucker. >random puppet seller or something who died alone, who cares >wait whos that >ohfuckpart2.jpeg >guy isnt a rogue agent at all, the new HBIC is the person who murdered him and they dont want him to be a problem for them. >struggle morally >find him again, try to explain whats going on and convince him hes in danger >he is not having it >the big fucking hammer is back again. >fuck this, time to activate my special ability: Big Ass Fucking Wrecking Ball >cold wind blows >the HBIC has arrived. >says i took too long so now theyre doing it themself. >pent up rage at wrongful execution 500 years ago builds up >guess i didnt deal with that trauma as well as i thought >animefight.jpeg >literally kill death themself. >shadow people come back to drag me back underground >wait no, theyre actually asking me if i want to be death now since i killed them >or i can go back underground and sleep peacefully for the rest of time and dream of my former life >show me what will happen if i choose to take the scythe >looks boring and lonely as shit to do for the rest of forever >show me my ex-husband and son who i will dream of if i go back >really struggle with it >remember that guy i was hired to find >remember clownpeople i bonded with while hunting his ass >god it has to be lonely for him to be the only dead guy walking on earth huh. >fine.jpeg >everyone is shocked to see me come back >they were sure i was gonna peace out after that bullshit >lolno.jpeg >tell dude hes stuck with my annoying ass now >he acts super irritated with it >end up spending time around him because our jobs cross paths >hes kinda funny in a mildly frightening way >deliberately spend more time around him because its not like theres anyone else around >shit hes kinda cool >shit hes kinda hot in a dead guy way what do i do, i think im in love with him now.

Hunting Partners: As shy as she is, she always seeks out a partner to go together on a job. It makes everything easier and she gladly shares the prey
Drawing: She is drawing ICly alot. Animals/People/Scales..she tends to seek out people with special sort of fur pattern or scales to draw them down and find some sort of connection like a wannabe detective
Cooking: One of the things she loves to do. Since she rarely left her apartment in the past, she learned a wide variation of meals and tea to prepare them for people.

ᛃ About the Woman ––– –– –
Lyara was born in the dotharl tribe out in the steppes. Her mother was a raen and the reason why the woman was allowed near that rather heavy religious type is unknown. At some point, said woman had some more deeper interactions and the mixed girl was soon born. The girl got taught the xaelic and hingan language and left the, for her, strange place, to find a home in the shrouds. Rumors said that she was not font of the the way her scales grew. That the colors made her feel out of place and she rather have interactions with some who didn’t had scales at all then her own -tribe-. Thankfully some of the wildwood elezen took the woman to their place and taught her a more professional handling of bow and arrow. She still takes jobs from the Archer’s guild to keep the shrouds save. Today she own a small little place in a teashop and makes bows and arrows on request. Of course any sort of hunting job is welcome, as long as she can keep some parts of fur, claws and/or fangs.

Conflict: Poachers are interesting with stepping up and trying to yank away the prey she got.
