"We've been growing weaker and weaker," Zeus began. He looked around at the gods assembled before him. They didn't always get along, that much was true, but he knew they'd have to unite as one force if they wanted to survive.
"And what are we supposed to do about that?" Ares asked. His words were fighting words and his tone had loss none of its harshness, but even the war god appeared to be weakened by the turn of events.
"That's what I'm getting to. Patience, Ares," Zeus began. He addressed the other Olympians as he continued. "I've been working with Athena and Hephaestus and we think we may have come up with a solution. It isn't 100%, but it's our best option at this point." He nodded for Athena to take the stage.
The goddess nodded as all eyes turned to her. "Children are the future. Yes, I know it's a cheesy little motto that the mortals use when they're trying to get funding for schools and such, but it may very well be the truth. The best course of action seems to be handing our power on to children."
"Children?" a surprised voice cried out. "Mortal children?" Athena couldn't identify the speaker, but she nodded.
"It sounds insane, but Hephaestus has created a charm. Within this charm, we can contain our powers. We each have to choose a child, a hero, that will keep the charm. They will come at our darkest hour," she said.
The crowd erupted in a cacophony of voices. Some were in agreement. Some were not. Most just raised more and more questions. The goddess had answers to all their questions, but no time. She felt herself getting weaker and weaker as the minutes flew by.
"Enough!" Zeus shouted. Olympus rumbled and the Olympians shut their mouths. "We have no other options. My child will be strong. They're a leader that others can count on."
"And mine will be intelligent. They'll be the ones to find the solution for any obstacle," Athena added.
"Mine will be handy. They'll provide the tools." Hephaestus spoke up for the first time. He was the only one that had remained silent.
There was a pause.
"Mine will be beautiful. Irresistible. Someone that knows how to get what they want." That was Aphrodite.
"Mine will be clever. Witty. Someone with street smarts." Hermes.
"Mine will be strong. A protecter. Someone that isn't afraid to fight." Ares finally joined in. That released the floodgates.
"A manipulator." Hera.
"Someone that knows how to have fun." Dionysus.
"A nature spirit," Artemis began.
"And a healer!" Apolllo finished his sister's statement.
"Unpredictable, like an ocean. They'll feel at home only in my domain." That was Poseidon.
"A provider," Demeter added.
"Then it's settled," Zeus agreed as the gods continued our traits they desired to see in their hero. "Hephaestus?"
The other god nodded and pulled or a handful of charms shaped to match each god's symbol. He handed them out.
Zeus watched as everyone headed in their own direction to begin the plan. Within seconds, he was alone in Olympus.
"We won't fade away this easily."

The Twelve Olympians were once powerful beings. They could do whatever they wanted and found themselves worshipped by many. However, as time went on, their power faded. Worshippers turned to other gods and other faiths. Slowly, the Greek gods and goddesses have been fading out of existence. In order to save themselves, the Olympians all put their power into a charm modeled after one of their symbols. They then gave the charm to a child that possessed the traits that a certain god admired and went into hibernation.
Now, 10 years later, these Heroes must restore power to their respective gods. Contacted through their charms, the Heroes were called to leave their everyday lives and gather at the Parthenon in Tennessee. Here, where the magic is stronger, Zeus communicates with the Heroes and tells them they must travel to Mt. Olympus and face off against their Kronos. With the gods' power weakening, the Titan had escaped his prison and is working to get his revenge on the gods.

Each Hero received a charm the day they were chosen. The charm is an intricately carved piece of metal about the size of a quarter. Made by Hephaestus, they are modeled after a symbol of each of the gods and goddesses. When worn, the charm gives the Hero a simple power representing their god. The charms can be worn however the Hero chooses. They can wear it as a bracelet, a necklace, or simply just carry it around. The powers granted by the charm can only be used for short periods. When the period is over the charm enters cooldown mode and may not be used for a few more hours. Some are painted, some are not.
Zeus The Charm of Zeus is shaped like a lightning bolt emerging from a cloud. The charm allows the wearer to control electricity.
Poseidon The Charm of Poseidon is shaped like a trident and painted sea green. It allows the wearer to control water.
Hermes The Charm of Hermes is shaped like a small cacadeus. It allows the wearer to run at speeds unimaginable by man.
Apollo The Charm of Apollo is shaped like a sun and painted gold. It allows the wearer to heal minor wounds.
Ares The Charm of Ares is shaped like a spear. It gives the wearer super human strength and faster reflexes while in battle.
Hephaestus The Charm of Hephaestus is shaped like a hammer. It's painted black and gives the wearer heat resistance and ability to manipulate flames.
Hera The Charm of Hera is shaped like a pomegranate. It allows the wearer to manipulate minds. It isn't total mind control, but enough to plant the seed of an idea in someone's brain.
Artemis The Charm of Artemis is shaped like a moon. It is painted gold. It allows the wearer to shapeshift into any animal.
Athena The Charm of Athena is shaped like an owl. The charm allows the wearer to pull useful knowledge out of thin air. His applies to knowledge that the wearer hadn't previously known and they will forget it after a few minutes.
Demeter The Charm of Demeter is shaped like a cornucopia. It allows the wearer to cause crops such as corn and wheat to grow quickly.
Aphrodite The Charm of Aphrodite is shaped like a dove and painted white. Similar to the Charm of Hera, it allows the wearer to influence one's mind. The difference is, however, that the victim of this power will like the wearer.
Dionysus The Charm of Dionysus is shaped as a grapevine. It allows the wearer to convince people to let go of their inhibitions. This can be extremely useful to gain information.

Literacy This is an advanced role play. That means I expect a minimum of a few paragraphs per post. I also expect correct grammar. I don't mind typos or imperfect grammar, but they shouldn't be happened every other word.
Activity Activity isn't the biggest rule, but it's still pretty important. I'm busy and know you can't be on 24/7, so I'm just gonna set the rule at a few times a week. If you don't come back, I will message you before deleting you.
Characters Characters cannot be perfect. That's the main rule when it comes to characters. Perfect is boring. We want realistic, flawed human like characters here. They were chosen by the gods and possess powers, but they still have weaknesses. Also, I'll allow people to claim two characters (maybe more if slots aren't filling) but they must be both genders if you claim two. I want genders to stay even so keep that in mind when making one. Also, ages can range anywhere from 18-low 20s. This can totally be changed depending on what people want but I want them to be similar ages.
Spamming This one should be pretty simple. I don't see this being a big problem, just don't spam the thread. Chatting is ecnouraged as long as people are still getting replies up.
Respect I want this to be fun for everyone involved. I need you to be respectful to one another, as well as me. No bullying will be tolerated at all. You must also respect and follow the forum rules. I don't want this deleted or anyone banned. So, try to keep stuff at a PG or PG-13 level.
Forum Rules I don't want this deleted. Everyone should be familiar with forums rules, so just plan on following them and we won't have any issues. I trust you guys to use your own common sense for this one.
Have Fun I want this to be fun for everyone involved. It should be enjoyable and relaxed. I have no problem with chatting, but I do want to make sure we keep getting role play posts in too. Also, no godmodding, spotlighting, power playing or any of that stuff. Also, don't have overly dramatic backstories just to give your character more attention. I don't have anything against dramatic backstories if it propels the plot or character. For example, the Hero of Hermes may have grown up on the streets and learned to scam people. Please just don't do it so your character can be 'special'. But it really is important to me that everyone enjoys themselves.

Mia Walsh • 21 • Female • Artemis • Ryan Newman Mia is always up for an adventure. Having grown up with many brothers, she's a bit of a tomboy. She does have a caring side, however, and got into trouble often as a child for bringing sick or injured animals home and nursing them back to health. Though she's grown out of it a little, Mia can still be a bit of a drama queen. She sometimes crosses the line into too competitive and too stubborn. Mia had a pretty normal life. She grew up in what most would consider 'the middle of nowhere'. This allowed her to spend more time outside than she did with people. She learned plenty of survival skills and even spent nights at a time living outside in order to escape her brothers. Mom - Elizabeth Walsh, 52 Dad - Sean Walsh, 55 Brother - Max Walsh, 25 Sister - Katie Walsh, 23 Brother - Riley Walsh 21 Brother - Vincent Walsh, 19 Brother - Nicholas Walsh, 15 she works part time as a cashier and is going to school for a biology degree, but doesn't know what she wants to do
Emmett Adrian • 19 • Male • Athena • William Moseley Emmett's always been a rather quiet child. He never had interest in sports or video games. He did, however, grown up in the shadow of his brother. Because of this, Emmett spent most of his time alone. He's a bit shy and awkward, but he's a good guy once you get past that. Emmett grew up in the shadow of his older brother, Emery. His dad was the school's football coach and constantly praising Emery for his athletic accomplishments. He didn't pay much attention to Emmett, so the boy turned to his mother for support for his academic accomplishments. He's always had a much stronger bond with her than with his father. Mother - Sydney Adrian, 49 Father - George Adrian, 50 Brother - Emery Adrian, 23 Despite feeling inferior to his brother, the two Adrian boys are surprisingly close.
Cameron Kyllis • 21 • Male • Poseidon • desc below Most would observe first that Cameron is above average in height, standing at 6 feet, 3 inches tall. His shoulders are broad and muscular, his complexion honey gold. He features very distinct features such as a long nose and a thick jaw. His eyes are a cold, baby blue with grey flecks throughout. Loosely wavy jet black hair grows rampant atop of his head. Cam has a number of identifying characteristics such as a right eyebrow piercing, two helix piercings on his left ear, as well as a long, jagged scar that runs along his right shoulder blade. Freckles dot his body, thickest on his forearms, shoulders, and upper back, and trailing from cheek to cheek, over the bridge of his nose. Cam will often be seen in a solid colored shirt, black mid-calf lace up boots, dark pants or jeans, a black leather jacket or trench coat, and a cigarette hanging out of his mouth. Cam is cold and calculating, always trying to figure out how to get what he wants. His mind is working in ways that very few would understand if they took a little trip inside. Cam is only looking out for number one, and many wouldn't look at him and think he is a hero. He's hotheaded and unpredictable, so those who anger him just might get a fist in the face. He's known to schools as a problem child, the kind that would get into a fight with the guys who think they're biggest and the baddest. He's quite the cynic, always suspicious of others. Cam just might be the most stubborn and prideful person you'll ever meet. He does his best to do what is right, even though he's fallen in with the wrong kind of crowd, but with a wild card like him, who's to know what he'll do? Cameron comes from a rather troubled family, giving him no good role models to live up to and admire. His mother had him in her senior year of high school, and instead of taking the time to raise him, she dumped him onto the father. His father blamed him for ruining his life, taking his anger out on Cam constantly, the worst nights when he came home inebriated. He would drag Cam all around the country, escaping being caught for laundering money. Cam never could secure friendships, never around for long. He threatened Cam if he dared tell, so he never did. Cameron lived on thin ice up until his father was incarcerated for murder. Finally, with his father no longer around, he had no one to care for him. He was put into foster care, with a new family. However, instead of moving past the scarring of the fearful nights of when his father would come home, Cam became bitter and resentful. Birth Mother - Katie Kyllis ( 37 ) Birth Father - Jake Kyllis ( 39 ) <> Foster Mother - Annie Wright ( 58 ) Foster Father - Andrew Wright ( 61 ) Foster Brothers - Michael Wright ( 15 ), Andrew Wright Jr. ( 20 ) Foster Sisters - Mary Wright ( 12 ), Hilary Wright ( 17 ) other
Lyra King • 21 • Female • Dionysus • Cintai Lyra is that one person that never seems to be unhappy. The world could be on fire and she is just like, its cool trees grow from ashes guys no worries. She is the person you come to if you want to gave a good time at party. The red-haired woman is a ball of fire in the sense that she is always going and always lit. She is the person you can go to when you are sad and she will make it better, or at least try to. Seriousness is not he strong suit, usually there is a joke involoved or she is the one that just wants to get past it and make sure things keep flowing. She kind of does what she wants and no one can really tell her otherwise because in some way she will do it. Unless she wants to listen then, that is still what she wanted to do. Lyra was born and raised in the city, so she was constantly busy hanging out with her friends partying, just living life basically. She lived with her father and brother, the mother was no where to be found in her life since the age of three. Of course that never bothered her since she had her grandmother to be the female figure in her life. Her brother is older so she always tried to follow in his footsteps but she has always been the wild child. She was the one that would get caught sneaking home or sneaking friends out. Grandmother - Jessica King Father - Jameson King Brother - Leonard King She is currently working as a bartender at a well known club to pay for classes in college.
Kenneth Castillo • 22 • Male • Apollo • Diego Barrueco Ken is a very mellow person, he tends to go with the flow of everything around him. You will never see him without his notebook. This is where he writes his songs and other things. He is very in tune with who he is a person and is calmer because of it. He is that guy who can find sitting at the park alone with a guitar. Though he has a bit of the edgy side, this he has displayed on his body through tattoos; which he considers art. He can be one of the nicest guys you meet unless you mess with his friends. He will hit you with his instruments, of which he plays seven. He thinks that having a plan and sticking to it is the best way for things to go. Kenny grew up with his mother and father as an only child, he spent most of is time alone and graduated early from his high school of the arts and now has a degree in music. Mother - Rosalin Castillo Father - Jorge Castillo Plays guitar, piano, flute, harp, lute, ocarina, and the guzheng
Michael 'Angie' Heldir • 21 • Male • Hera • desc below Angie is a rather average with his height, standing at around five feet seven inches. His average stature is matched with a skinny body type from pure high metabolism. He has a few piercings on his ears from a bet with a friend of his back in high school. He likes them so he kept them after that. He has medium-short hair, light brown in color that he is rather particular on how it sits. He has close set eyes that are a light brown-ish color as well. For his clothes, he normally swaps between different colors of long sleeves shirts, some patterned, though not normally deviating from the long sleeves. He has a collection of jeans that looks very similar that he cycles between while he cycles through his shirts. He wears the charm attached to a leather strip that he ties around his wrist under his shirt-he likes it hidden so it isn't stolen...again. Angie is quiet, thoughtful and analytical of the environment and the people in it. He keeps to himself unless he either has an agenda or he is approached by someone else, and even then he stays quiet long enough to get a feel for the other's personality and how he should react to them. He only diverges on what he think would be the ideal personality for someone when he really doesn't care or he cares a whole lot for someone. Good luck figuring out which is which because he makes no effort to distinguish the two. He is rather calm when it comes to most situations, though gets pretty motherly when it comes to those special to him. By motherly I mean he gets pretty angry and borderline 'mama bear' when it comes to people he deem as his close ones (he barely distinguishes close friends and family. They are basically the same in his mind). He can get this way on both the one harming them and the 'close one'. He tends to lecture....a lot. Angie grew up in a quiet family, not anything really exciting, but not anything boring. He is a lot older then his younger sister, so he assisted in raising her from child to teen. He has wanted to teach music since he was young, being fascinated by all the musical and technical aspects of it. He often draws out plans for marching band shows, listens to music which he fits together for concerts, and everything he can to get prepared. Obviously his education and career is put on the back burner, having to set that aside to go to the east. Mother: Heather Heldir-45 Father: Charles Heldir-47 Sister: Eri Heldir-14 other
Natalia Lemme • 22 • Female • Aphrodite • desc below Natalia is beautiful. Exquisite. She is pleasure, delight, and love. She is roses on valentine’s day, she is the warmth on a summer’s day. Yet, she is also manipulative, selfish and naughty. Natalia is youthful and enjoys playing games. She is full of simplicity and tries to attain every goal she sets for herself. She loves all people and all people love her. Because she is such a womanizer people person, Natalia has taken up waitressing at the local bar on her time away from school, saving up for bigger things. Although now she lives at home with her younger brother and father. They love her dearly and she returns the love deeply and truly. Her mother had left them all. Natalia and her brother were much too young to comprehend who she was and where she was off to. Thus, her bond with her sibling and her father is unwavering and she would deoanything for either of them. history Mother- unknown Father: Lou Lemme, 42 Younger brother – Josh Lemme, 17 She is irresistible to everyone. She is a self acclaimed goddess. “Shh darling, it’s just the two of us now, alright?” soothingly, her loving attributes fall, moments after seduction has begun. Now onto bigger things. The wallet is pick pocketed easily from her victim, as a result from distracted kissing, and placed carefully into her aprons pocket. Her tips for the evening. Waitressing is the way to go.
Jolene Pinewood • 19 • Female • Demeter • faceclaim Jolene is a true southern belle. She doesn't swear, she's religious, she's hospitable, she's the poster child of the Deep South. She is often fearful of the new adventures she is facing up north, but it is clear to her guild members she is afraid. She sets and relaxes her jaw when she is anxious or afraid. Jolene was told to have an open mind, but has some prejudice leftover from her judgmental hometown. Growing up with a strict set of morals, Jolene follows them to a T. This can lead her astray very easily, though. Jolene grew up in a small southern town, where everybody knew everybody. She hasn't meet a new person since she was born. Her family owned a farm, where she mainly helped with the livestock. Her father was the town's preacher, and they attended church services every Sunday, though often attended a service more than once. If they could afford to lay off some farm work. Jolene has 4 sisters, all of which she is the oldest. She shares a room with the older two. Mother: Sue Ann Pinewood (46) Father: Peter Pinewood (50) Sister: Brier Pinewood (12) Sister: Mary Ann Pinewood (10) Sister: Leslie Pinewood (7) Sister: "Stevie" Pinewood (5) Jolene wears her charm as though it was woven into a friendship bracelet, the colors being green, pink, and yellow in a crisscross pattern.
Skylar Brennan • 20 • Female • Zeus • Luca Hollestelle Zeus' hero is undoubtedly a leader, both within the group and outside of it. People naturally look to her to tell them what to do when they have no idea, mainly because of the calm demeanor that she gives off in even the most dire of situations, as well as her bold fearlessness in times when it's needed. She isn't afraid to step up and tell people what they should do, and doesn't seem fazed by the fact that she's one of the group's younger members. She's a brilliant strategist and a great public speaker; many people in her life seem to think that she would make a good politician or military leader. She cares deeply for people and deeply values human life, to the point where she would give up her own in order to save another, even if she doesn't know the person. However, she can often come across as cold and distant; she isn't used to being cared for by anyone and may shy away from anyone who tries. She's more accustomed to being the one that cares for others. Skylar had a rather difficult childhood. Her mother died in childbirth, along with one of her sisters (she was a triplet). While she remained healthy, her surviving sister was sickly, and she too ended up passing away in the hospital at three months old, leaving her alone with an emotionally distant father and an older brother who blamed her for the loss of his mother. She had to grow up quickly and learn to care for herself where nobody else did; though her father provided for her the best that he could, she was left mostly to her own devices. This worsened when her father passed away, when she was barely fourteen. Her brother, as an adult, grudgingly agreed to be her legal guardian, though he, too, left as soon as he could-- on the very day of her eighteenth birthday. Lawrence Brennan-- 26-- older brother She attends college on a full ride scholarship, after working hard and graduating as the valedictorian of her senior class. She's studying archaeology, and works part time as an assistant curator at the local natural history museum.
Kairos "Kai" Copeland • 20 • male • Area • desc below Kai is, in some ways, intimidating. He stands at about six foot even and is thickly muscled with broad shoulders, dark tan skin, and thick callouses on his hands. Most of this resonates from his job, where he works as a farmhand nearly every day. His dark brown hair hangs just above his large, also dark brown eyes, and is generally not styled, but he does try to brush it so that it looks at least halfway decent. Freckles dot across his nose and cheeks but they are somewhat hard to notice. Kai isn't stunning or noticeable and tends to mostly fade into the background in a lot of things. His clothing is also simple, and unnoticeable: faded jeans, beige work boots that are stained brown from work, and a flannel over some plain t-shirt. Similar to his looks, Kai's personality is unremarkable, unnoticeable. He's the silent type, choosing to listen to what others have to say and let everyone else tire themselves out with arguing before butting in with his opinion, which he'll stand by until the end. It's hard to make him change his mind once he's set in his ways. With all of that, it is hard to get under Kai's skin and truly make him angry. He's a master of controlling his emotions and remaining, more or less, stoic. Despite this, if he feels threatened or like those around him (whether they are friends or not) are being threatened, he will be the first to jump to someone's defense and is no stranger to getting into fights. Kairos spent much of his life hopping from city to city, school to school, until he was finally able to graduate and settle down in his favorite small town, where he took on a job as a farmhand. Because of this, Kai never developed any close bonds with people other than his mother and sister, so he kind of sucks at the whole "socializing" thing and doesn't completely understand some social cues. Because of always being the "new kid," Kai also tended to get bullied a lot which would often lead to fights. Because of this, he's pretty darn good at a street fight with no rules.

Hudson • 22 • male • hermes While Hudson is lean of body and at an average height of 6 feet, he doesn’t have much to show for muscles. He comes from a mix of European ethnicities, making his skin slightly tanned, yet still light in color. Although his natural hair color is black, the top of his head is dyed pastel blue with lavender tips. It is normally tamed under a cap turned backwards, with thick black and grey stripes, and swept to the right side of his face. His eyes are a dark grey color. Both of his ears are pierced with circular black studs. Hudson practically lives in dark colored sweatshirts and loose fitting clothing. However, if he puts his mind to it, he can clean up rather nicely. Hudson is a double sided coin, even if one side shows more than the other. Outwardly, Hudson is a lot of fun, and to be truthful, addictive to be around. He'll always have a trick or joke up his sleeve, and lives to see people laugh and have fun. He often puts others before himself, and truly cares for everyone who sees good in. He wants to help others in any way he can, even if it's something as simple as donating what little he has to the poor, or cracking a joke to relieve tension. Just as easily Hudson can become dead serious and focused. When he sets his mind to something, he will stop at nothing to get it done. He is very empathetic to those around him, and it pains him to see someone in low spirits. He is very open minded to the needs of others, and can always listen when someone is having a rough time. Hudson can be paranoid and insecure. Instead of sharing his feelings and seeking advice, he tries to bottle it all up. His paranoia can lead to indecision or hesitation in times of need, causing him to miss crucial moments. Hudson tends to dwell on things that have gone wrong, and fears letting others down when they are dependent on him. He often works himself into the ground, or takes on too many responsibilities than he can handle. Hudson has been moved around his entire life, never staying too long in one place. His father's work as an archaeologist forces him to move all over the country, much to Hudson's unhappiness. Hudson's fathers seemed to have settled down in one area for once, but now he has to up and leave on a wild trip. Fathers - Alexander Banner ( 50 ), Chris Banner ( 49 ) homosexual

Lyra King • 21 • Female • Dionyus • Cintai (cant use her last name so here is a link) Lyra is that one person that never seems to be unhappy. The world could be on fire and she is just like, its cool trees grow from ashes guys no worries. She is the person you come to if you want to gave a good time at party. The red-haired woman is a ball of fire in the sense that she is always going and always lit. She is the person you can go to when you are sad and she will make it better, or at least try to. Seriousness is not he strong suit, usually there is a joke involoved or she is the one that just wants to get past it and make sure things keep flowing. She kind of does what she wants and no one can really tell her otherwise because in some way she will do it. Unless she wants to listen then, that is still what she wanted to do. Lyra was born and raised in the city, so she was constantly busy hanging out with her friends partying, just living life basically. She lived with her father and brother, the mother was no where to be found in her life since the age of three. Of course that never bothered her since she had her grandmother to be the female figure in her life. Her brother is older so she always tried to follow in his footsteps but she has always been the wild child. She was the one that would get caught sneaking home or sneaking friends out. Grandmother- Jessica King Father- Jameson King Brother- Leonard King She is currently working as a bartender at a well known club to pay for classes in college. Kenneth Castillo • 22 • Male • Apollo • Diego Barrueco Ken is a very mellow person, he tends to go with the flow of everything around him. You will never see him without his notebook. This is where he writes his songs and other things. He is very in tune with who he is a person and is calmer because of it. He is that guy who can find sitting at the park alone with a guitar. Though he has a bit of the edgy side, this he has displayed on his body through tattoos; which he considers art. He can be one of the nicest guys you meet unless you mess with his friends. He will hit you with his instruments, of which he plays seven. He thinks that having a plan and sticking to it is the best way for things to go. Kenny grew up with his mother and father as an only child, he spent most of is time alone and graduated early from his high school of the arts and now has a degree in music. Mother- Rosalin Castillo Father- Jorge Castillo He plays; guitar, piano, flute, harp, lute, ocarina, and the guzheng Here they are finally!!
