Trent was born to a single mother whom traveled from the East Coast to San Fransisco to live the life of a Hippie in the early '80's. She never talked about his Father, as she just instilled the ideals of standing up for the little man and fighting for a better world.
Trent decided to take that lesson and start early from tricking bullies and stealing tests to help those whom would fail with out it Trent gave as good as he got. In the his later years he went to UC Berkley, and was awaken to the reality that the Man was just every where and the causes were many.
He excelled at breaking and entering and even information gathering, but his strength was in reveling the truth to the public via his blog, being the better everyman. Few companies were fined or inspected while public figures had hard lights turned on their personal life and the actions they committed. Trent was living his mother's dream, but his mind was restless.
During school he worked on his studies of folklore and sociology. This kept himself going . That is until he met his Father.
Hermes set Trent up to break into a business that the God had as a front just so he could finally tell Trent the truth. When Trent got caught by Hermes, the shock was great. It took a good hour for Trent to calm down and truly understand the scope of things but his father was feeling mischievous and amused by the whole thing.
Hermes explained the War as it stood and told Trent that he was needed in the fight to help prepare those whom can fight to fight and to keep both the other Scions, and Mt. Olympus informed of the current state of the world. To help with this Hermes gave to Trent his Talaria shoes in the form of Nike custom sneakers and matching racing leathers for a motorcycle. He also gave Trent an amulet of the famous Caduceus as it was crafted from Hermes own.
