"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.

Literacy This is an advanced role play. That means I expect a minimum of four substantial 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 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. But it really is important to me that everyone enjoys themselves.

Jordan Adler • 20 • Female • Poseidon Jordan is short, standing at around 5'5. She looks like and athletic with a lean and muscular body from years of physical activity. Her skin is somewhere between pale and tan with pale freckles lightly dotting her face and a few scars that are mostly faded at this point. She has one on her wrist from a surgery in high school. She also has one on her knee, one on her stomach, and one on her chin from childhood accidents. Jordan's hair is straight and dark brown, falling inches past her shoulders, but it's usually tied back to keep it out of her way. Her eyes are dark brown as well and very good at conveying her emotions. She doesn't have a personal "style" and just tends to wear whatever the situation calls for. What Jordan lacks in size, she makes up for in personality. She's full of energy and outgoing, generally optimistic and friendly. Jordan is confident in herself, often overconfident, which gets her into trouble quite often. She's reckless and doesn't look at consequences, as if she's immune to getting hurt. This, of course, has gotten her injured and she doesn't seem to care. Jordan is definitely a ringleader when it comes to well intentioned trouble and mischief. She generally doesn't mean harm to others, but it happens at times. Jordan is very adventurous and always looking for that rush of excitement and adrenaline. She tends to be the one that comes up with plans that don't work, but she's extremely creative and can actually come up with good ideas if she's with someone that can keep her grounded. She's extremely loyal and cares deeply for those that she calls friends. She doesn't want to put them in danger but does unintentionally when she drags them along on her adventures. She's also prideful, stubborn, and argumentative. Jordan struggles to admit when she's wrong and has no problem fighting for what she believes in. Jordan had a pretty normal childhood. She grew up in a pretty middle class neighborhood hood with two parents, an older brother, and a dog. She was extremely close with her cousin Ezra who worked hard to get quiet and shy Jordan out of her shell. Ezra was easily her best friend until he died in a car crash when she was 16. She made a promise then to complete the list of dares he gave her and never have even a sip of alcohol. Jim Adler, 52 Maureen Adler, 50 Benjamin Adler, 23 Other
Carter Klein • 19 • Male • Hermes Carter is small, about 5'5, and lean. His body is very compact and tends to look tense. He doesn't mind because it allows him to fade into the background. His skin is pale and his hair is black. He keeps his hair just long enough to pass his ears and it's constantly messy. He had bright, ice blue eyes that always seem to shine. Carter dresses in older clothes, usually jeans paired with a hoodie or t-shirt depending on what he's doing that day. Carter has a cheap tattoo of a skull on the back of his hand that was done in the garage of one of the neighborhood kids. He regrets it. He wears his charm around his neck and keeps it tucked into his shirt. Carter is definitely rough when you first meet him. He isn't a big fan of social interaction and prefers to spend time on his own. Well, he enjoys spending time with people he likes but has no patience for strangers or people he doesn't have an opinion on. He's very blunt and straight forward. Despite this, Carter was raised with good manners and will do things like hold open the door for others and make sure people eat before he does. Of course, that all goes back to him actually liking you. Carter does have a soft side, but it's only shared with those he likes. Most people will only get to know the quiet and cold Carter. A bit of a temper. Carter's dad disappeared when he was a kid and his mom knows but won't tell him why. Because of this, he grew up with his mother and grandmother and stuff wasn't bad until his grandmother died. His mother struggled to make enough for them to live off of and Carter did his best to go out and sell things (art, belongings, cookies, etc) to help his mother with the bills. She as always proud of him and when Carter lost the 'cute' factor, people stopped buying his stuff and he turned to less honest means of helping her out. This came in the form of stealing, scamming, and threatening. He was never proud of it and refused to let his mom know, instead making up lies about where he got the money. Eileen Klein - 39 Carter knows a variety of skills such as pick pocketing, lock picking, and hot wiring cars. He doesn't tend to share this info but is willing to use his knowledge whenever necessary
Kairos "Kai" Copeland • 20 • Male • Ares 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. Mother: Lydia Copeland (39) Half-Sister: Eliza Copeland (18) other
Zackary Lynton • 20 • Male • Aphrodite “Devilishly handsome” is how he would describe himself, and I suppose there is some degree of truth to the statement. To start off, he certainly qualifies as “tall and dark”…although maybe handsome is a bit of a stretch. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, after all. He’s tall and fit to boot, with powerful arms and legs and a rugged jaw line. Far from a body builder but easily pleasing to the eyes. Speaking of eyes, his are technically brown, but they’re such a dark shade that they appear to be black in most lighting; it’s only really apparent if you’re right in his face (and he doesn’t usually have a problem with people getting that close to him oops) that his eyes are actually brown. As for his hair, it’s his darkest feature, black as raven’s feathers and with a similar sheen to it. He doesn’t bother with the locks too much, preferring them to have a certain amount of ruffle to them because he claims girls find that attractive – he’s the expert okay. His skin tone is olive and he tans very, very easily. Overall, Zack carries himself with confidence and a certain swagger in his step that can easily be intimidating to others who aren’t aware of how exactly non-threatening he is. Proud. If there’s one word that can be used to describe Zack, it’s that one. Well…tied with manipulative. He supposedly knows himself well and loves himself even better, and the latter at least becomes apparent quickly. Even so, his confident aura and upbeat personality makes him easily approachable to others. Initially, anyway – there are probably two thoughts that come to the average person’s mind when they first hear Zack actually open his mouth. One) Avoid him at all costs. Or two) I hate him. Sometimes in conjunction with each other. Why, you might ask? Well, more often than not, the first thing people notice when he talks is that he’s incredibly blunt. He doesn’t seem to possess a filter, saying exactly what comes to his mind without a thought of how the other person will feel about the word. He’s quite fond of teasing to boot, but has an unsurprising tendency to take it too far. When it comes to girls though…oh man, this guy is relentless. If he’s attracted to you, you will definitely know it. Unfortunately, he’s probably also interested in several other girls at the same time so try not to get your hopes up, okay? A notorious flirt basically, although he’s rarely ever serious and any romances he’s had have been relatively short. Definitely has a short attention span. Now, about that manipulative thing…yeah, Zack can tone down his bluntness when need be aka when he wants something from someone. He has an unnerving ability to break a person down and draw things out of them. Beware, because he might try to play you like a fiddle. Zack grew up in a relatively average, happy home. Despite his parents divorcing at a young age and after the birth of his little sister, Felicity, he's coped pretty well under the custody of his hard-working mother. He's extremely close with both. Zackary went through school a talkative, athletic kid and quickly secured popularity and numerous friendships. He's in college now, but misses the simplicity of his high school days. He's majoring in business but not very happy with it and volunteers with a little-league baseball team on the side. Natasha Lynton - 42 Felicity Lynton - 17 He’s a heavily closeted bisexual. Will fight anyone who questions his fragile masculinity.
Lux Everglade • 20 • Male • Apollo Lux is a pretty small guy- he stands at 5"6' if he stood up straight. But usually he slouches just a little bit, mostly because he's looking at something, whether its a phone, book, or something interesting. He has softer cheekbones, and a rather heart shaped face, giving him definitely a younger look. He has soft blonde hair that is curled lightly, and it's that honey blonde that makes him look like the stereo typical surfer dude. His eyes are a little large, with green eyes that are the color of moss. His skin is usually at that light type of tan, although it gets darker during the summer when he's out and about skating and trying out surfing (although he is definitely horrible at that- Poseidon doesn't like another hero in his domain so often), and usually you'll either find him at the skate park or studying under a tree for his entrance exams into medical school, even though he's still trapped between going into some type of medical school for Cardiology, Oncology, or Psychology. All he knows for a fact is that he wants to be in Pediatrics, but he doesnt know the specialty. He has a light smatter of sprinkles on his nose, and has snakebites and a few tattoos (all that can be hidden in scrubs, of course). He walks lightly, usually with a bounce in his step, and has a rather bright aura about him, seeming to just draw people to him like a moth to a flame. Lux is a naturally curious guy, sweet and protective over his friends if he gets close enough to someone. Of course he still keeps most people at a polite distance- preferring to stick to his books than making serious connections for relationships. He knows just enough to connect to patients, and is definitely a hugger no matter who it is, it's just he struggles with keeping up with relationships at times. If someone gets too close to him, he usually takes measures to push them away in odd little ways, nothing hurtful just making sure that no one could actually get to know him. One of his biggest fears is actually letting people in, thinking that hell just end up getting hurt and nothing good can come out of letting people in. Lux didn't have the best family life- and the circumstances ended up with him being landed in the foster care system once he was fourteen, after he graduated at seventeen he started to go to community college until he was old enough to get out of the system and then went to college as far away as possible. N/A Lux is definitely gay and despite him refusing to let anyone in he's a total sucker for romance and believes in a happy ending for everyone. He loves animals and music- has a talent for instruments, especially the violin, marimba, and guitar. He has a sweet spot for the violin, though.
Ophelia Saint • 18 • Female • Hera Though not the most drop-dead gorgeous girl on the planet, no one can deny that Ophelia is an attractive young woman. Her smooth, unblemished skin has a light tan to it. Her doe-like eyes shine a brilliant peacock green, framed by long and dark lashes. Her long hair falls in loose waves to her mid-back, but she usually pulls it back into a bun or high ponytail. Ophelia's hair is pitch black, and it has a silky sheen. She stands at an average 5'6", and she has an hourglass figure. Usually, you can find the girl wearing something cute, yet casual, but it is not rare to see her in formal business attire. Ophelia is a cunning girl. She knows what she wants, and how to get it. She is very ambitious, and she will fight with tooth and nail to achieve her goals. If you're standing in her way, you best beware, as she will do almost anything she can to to get you out of her life. She is very self-reliant and she has issues trusting others. Some may call her manipulative, but she prefers the term 'naturally persuasive'. Though Ophelia may be an ambitious viper, she is not without a heart. She cares deeply for those close to her, and she always goes with her gut on things. If you are someone that she indeed does get along with, she will protect and defend you with her dying breath. Those close to her know that she is very passionate and that she will not let anybody get away with anything that she deems wrong. She is ruthless in pursuing her goals, and does not give up easily. She doesn't usually play well with others, which really isn't that surprising. Despite her independent and manipulative ways, Ophelia is not perfect on her own. She often feels lonely and she sometimes wishes to be able to be more outgoing and have friends to be around. Ophelia was born into the top 1%. Her father was the heir to a global oil business, and all her life, the dark-haired beauty wanted for nothing. She was raised in the world of cutthroat business, and this shaped her to be the clever and ruthless girl she is today. She is set to inherit the company, so from a young age, she learned the ropes to the business and she very quickly took a shine to it. She grew up on her family's estate in Vermont, where she was tutored by people hired by her father. Alexander Saint - 48 Calliope Saint - 35 (deceased, would be 44) Her mother passed away when she was ten, and this too resulted in the self-reliant and cold-hearted traits we see in her today.
Maeve Eloise Amherst • 20 • Female • Zeus She has a meticulously keen eye for detail, and it's apparent the moment you take a first glimpse in her direction. Though she possesses a small and petite physique with a feminine waist, it's best not to craft a delicate image of Maeve's character. She may appear to be fragile with her soft curves and ivory complexion, making it seem as if she's been standing out in snow for too long, but it's her sharp yet benign, dark orbs that truly give her personality away. Though her lips are soft and flushed with pink, they're oftentimes set in a stoic frown or a very subtle smile, and it's rare to see her wearing something that will reveal the old and tattered white scar across her knee. Her stern eyes are emphasized by her long lashes, and her clothes are usually dark in hue, sharply contrasting her smooth skin. She has a rather gentle face. It's known that when she smiles - truly smiles - she almost looks like a completely different individual because the occasion is so rare. Her visage seems to have mostly been derived from her mother. An imperturbable air of tranquility; a perfectly poised demeanor; an enigmatic glimmer of the gaze. Let’s just say that when she was younger, Maeve's lonely and refined demeanor was a guise to hide her mischievous heart. Now, however, she’s become a little old to have a flair for showing off while still veiled with a mystifying reticence. It’s just too tiring - or so she thinks. So, upon approaching Maeve now, it's notable that she constantly exudes magnanimity, fairness, and sternness. This is established in that she rarely steps out of her own way to regard someone unfairly or skip to cheap assumptions of their character. Though she tends to quirk an eyebrow when she finds that certain individuals say or do things in front of her to be 'funny,' her strict demeanor isn't everything to her personality; she's able to display a dry sense of humor which is usually elicited from her during pressuring times. It's true that she exhibits a sharp tongue, as she's unafraid to voice her mind even to those in possession of authority (especially with a solid reason to support her decision) and retains great emotional composure without being apathetic. This rational and disciplined aspect to her character may install some source of fear within her peers, but don't be fooled; her sincere and unconditional love for others oftentimes gets the better of her, and eventually she'll have no choice but to succumb to her empathy for those she's come to trust. In other words, in private, Maeve Eloise Amherst is not only highly caring, supportive, and passionate, but also fiercely protective, loyal, and solicitous about the welfare of those around herself. If someone needs a shoulder to lean on, she's there for them, and she'll make sure that she's there to do everything she can in her capability to support them. Her softer side tends to make itself known particularly through her interactions with younger children. To that end, Amherst tends to be the personification of 'tough love,' as she retains a stern hand that's tethered with deep affection. tl;dr: austere, disciplined, thoughtful, magnanimous, courageous, steadfast While her father was charitable, benevolent, and sweet, her mother was hardheaded, independent, and protective. Yuna encouraged independence and modesty which may be the main reason for why Maeve does not seek out for help, even when she's in dire need of it. Nathaniel "Nate" Amherst (father), 50 Yuna Amherst (mother), 48 She's definitely a gamer and bookworm at heart and her compassion for animals is almost unparalleled. She's surprisingly good at cooking and playing a myriad of instruments. She may be referred as 'Mae.' She's bisexual.
Risto Simone Torres • 20 • Male • Hephaestus Perhaps one of the most notable traits of this young man are his eyes; they’re dark pools of brown that seize the depth of ultimate warmth. While they’re greatly expressive, illustrating benign joy quite often, they’re quite difficult to read during certain circumstances. With this in mind, it isn’t strange to say that many things about him can be learned through his vibrant orbs; the subtle way he lowers them when he brings up something embarrassing; the way how he shifts them to the side when he’s about to mention something he doesn’t like; the way he blinks twice when he’s startled; the way how they twinkle when he melodramatically responds to someone telling him that he's a terrible artist; the way how they practically glow with warmth when he speaks with those he’s come to truly care for. Slim with an almost bird-like physique, Risto is someone who carries himself with an easygoing atmosphere. While it is true that he's quick on his feet, his slender frame makes it difficult for him to face more muscular or larger opponents than himself during a scuffle. He's a little tan, and thick, tousled curls of brown sit upon his head, falling over his gaze quite often. There's a small beauty mark beneath his left eye. How else am I to describe this young man without first mentioning just how bewildered most individuals tend to be by his genuine excitement over trivial things and sheer affection towards people? It’s the little things that go noticed by him, that’s for certain, and it’s what also makes him one heck of an appreciative individual. Content over little things, Risto is never one to ask for excessive luxury, and this is even apparent in the way how he dresses. If anything, he’s grateful for those he’s able to meet and the time he’s able to spend with them. It's what makes his presence so ubiquitous, even as he remains out of the spotlight for a majority of the time. However, despite how vigorous he is with a laid-back disposition, Risto can be a bit of a mystery. While on the surface, he remains passionate, effervescent, and animated, it’s true that he's also highly focused, stern, resilient, and reserved, as he’s acutely aware of the things that occur around himself while seemingly not on the surface. To be frank, he isn’t angered very easily and is capable of quickly discerning circumstances, even under high pressure. A distinctive flaw to his personality may be the fact that when he believes a cause, he’ll go a hundred percent with it. That is to say, he’s a crusader: he’s more than likely to recklessly put himself in harms way without thinking twice, especially when someone else he loves is involved. Thinking be damned during those quick life-and-death moments, he’s not letting anyone get hurt on his watch. It's also true that he'll boldly dive into sticky circumstances without hesitance, especially with a solid reason in mind, which can be a bit of a juxtaposition to how reliable he is on a normal basis: steadfast and balanced like a proud pillar supporting those in need of its structure. Overall, as a loving, understanding, and altruistic friend, Risto Simone Torres is someone who is zealously loyal to those who have truly earned his trust until the very bitter end. tl;dr: dependable, loving, spirited, conscientious, hardworking, grounded Although the passing of his mother was a strenuous time for his family to endure, Risto's had a rather happy life. It's true that he's had to move around internationally to a myriad of different countries due to his father's work, however. This may be the reason for why he's familiar with different languages. Elias Torres (father), 49 Hershey Torres (family dog), 7 He's notorious for his flabbergasted reaction when he knows that someone's flirting with him (don't try it out, he'll lose all his cool) and is surprisingly shy when it comes to anything remotely romantic. Terrible at art, but brilliant with language and technology. He's pansexual.
Freya Breiner • eighteen • female • Artemis At first glance, Freya has the air of a mature but frigid ice queen. Her skin is pale as snow and mostly unblemished, though it does bruise easily and when she blushes she looks as red as a tomato. Not that she gets flustered very often. She stands a little taller than the average girl her age at 5’7”, and most of that height is legs. Freya is curvy and a bit on the chubby side though it doesn’t bother her. White-blonde hair falls just below her shoulder blades in thick, straight strands and is generally kept unbound. Her eyes are almond-shaped and colored hazel, lacking much in the way of warmth. She wears black, square glasses and is practically blind without them. Freya’s attire is without color – much of her wardrobe consists of black and white and the occasional gray. She’s overly fond of wearing cardigans and knee-high socks. Freya may have a gentle temperament but to associate that with submissiveness would be a fatal mistake. She is an independent spirit, perhaps even coming across as a haughty one. A young woman who will not take well to being pushed around, mocked, or told what to do. She’s a free-thinker, determined to form her own ideas and find her own solutions to problems, and doesn’t easily mesh well with other people. As a result, she’s a bit of a loner. Quiet but not shy, however. It’s not surprising that Freya is prone to actions over words. Although she may not talk much unless she has something important to say, Freya is a dedicated student and bookish to boot. It’s not unusual to find her reading her book, whether that’s a physical copy or on her phone…she may be a little too attached to her phone in general. Despite her aloof appearance and loner habits, Freya gets attached to people easily and expresses her care for her others in her own subtle way. She’s not one for fights and sharp words unless pushed to the brink, though it can certainly happen. Freya’s early childhood was spent in a rural area on her grandparent’s farm, helping tend to livestock and taking care of crops. She grew a deep affection for the open air and animals while she lived there, a trait that has faded somewhat but has never truly gone away. However, she and her parents moved to the city when she was nine and have been there ever since. One could say she’s never fully adjusted. The country kid grew up into a city girl who could only rarely indulge in her love for nature – it takes the form of her passion project these days: photography Johann Breiner – 46 Ingrid Breiner – 42 other

heyo~ working on my form. cx history sections always stump me tho ahaha Zackary Lynton • twenty • male • Aphrodite
“Devilishly handsome” is how he would describe himself, and I suppose there is some degree of truth to the statement. To start off, he certainly qualifies as “tall and dark”…although maybe handsome is a bit of a stretch. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, after all. He’s tall and fit to boot, with powerful arms and legs and a rugged jaw line. Far from a body builder but easily pleasing to the eyes. Speaking of eyes, his are technically brown, but they’re such a dark shade that they appear to be black in most lighting; it’s only really apparent if you’re right in his face (and he doesn’t usually have a problem with people getting that close to him oops) that his eyes are actually brown. As for his hair, it’s his darkest feature, black as raven’s feathers and with a similar sheen to it. He doesn’t bother with the locks too much, preferring them to have a certain amount of ruffle to them because he claims girls find that attractive – he’s the expert okay. His skin tone is olive and he tans very, very easily. Overall, Zack carries himself with confidence and a certain swagger in his step that can easily be intimidating to others who aren’t aware of how exactly non-threatening he is.
Proud. If there’s one word that can be used to describe Zack, it’s that one. Well…tied with manipulative. He supposedly knows himself well and loves himself even better, and the latter at least becomes apparent quickly. Even so, his confident aura and upbeat personality makes him easily approachable to others. Initially, anyway – there are probably two thoughts that come to the average person’s mind when they first hear Zack actually open his mouth. One) Avoid him at all costs. Or two) I hate him. Sometimes in conjunction with each other. Why, you might ask? Well, more often than not, the first thing people notice when he talks is that he’s incredibly blunt. He doesn’t seem to possess a filter, saying exactly what comes to his mind without a thought of how the other person will feel about the word. He’s quite fond of teasing to boot, but has an unsurprising tendency to take it too far. When it comes to girls though…oh man, this guy is relentless. If he’s attracted to you, you will definitely know it. Unfortunately, he’s probably also interested in several other girls at the same time so try not to get your hopes up, okay? A notorious flirt basically, although he’s rarely ever serious and any romances he’s had have been relatively short. Definitely has a short attention span. Now, about that manipulative thing…yeah, Zack can tone down his bluntness when need be aka when he wants something from someone. He has an unnerving ability to break a person down and draw things out of them. Beware, because he might try to play you like a fiddle.
Zack grew up in a relatively average, happy home. Despite his parents divorcing at a young age and after the birth of his little sister, Felicity, he's coped pretty well under the custody of his hard-working mother. He's extremely close with both. Zackary went through school a talkative, athletic kid and quickly secured popularity and numerous friendships. He's in college now, but misses the simplicity of his high school days. He's majoring in business but not very happy with it and volunteers with a little-league baseball team on the side.

He’s a heavily closeted bisexual. Will fight anyone who questions his fragile masculinity.

(don't worry about history that much I'm looking for a sentence or two? Like for Carter I've got about a paragraph of history but with Brooke i got maybe two sentences?? Just a little idea of where they're from or what their situation growing up was)

(I changed his name lol) Lux Everglade • 20 • Male(ish) • Apollo Lux is a pretty small guy- he stands at 5"6' if he stood up straight. But usually he slouches just a little bit, mostly because he's looking at something, whether its a phone, book, or something interesting. He has softer cheekbones, and a rather heart shaped face, giving him definitely a younger look. He has soft blonde hair that is curled lightly, and it's that honey blonde that makes him look like the stereo typical surfer dude. His eyes are a little large, with green eyes that are the color of moss. His skin is usually at that light type of tan, although it gets darker during the summer when he's out and about skating and trying out surfing (although he is definitely horrible at that- Poseidon doesn't like another hero in his domain so often), and usually you'll either find him at the skate park or studying under a tree for his entrance exams into medical school, even though he's still trapped between going into some type of medical school for Cardiology, Oncology, or Psychology. All he knows for a fact is that he wants to be in Pediatrics, but he doesnt know the specialty. He has a light smatter of sprinkles on his nose, and has snakebites and a few tattoos (all that can be hidden in scrubs, of course). He walks lightly, usually with a bounce in his step, and has a rather bright aura about him, seeming to just draw people to him like a moth to a flame.
Lux is a naturally curious guy, sweet and protective over his friends if he gets close enough to someone. Of course he still keeps most people at a polite distance- preferring to stick to his books than making serious connections for relationships. He knows just enough to connect to patients, and is definitely a hugger no matter who it is, it's just he struggles with keeping up with relationships at times. If someone gets too close to him, he usually takes measures to push them away in odd little ways, nothing hurtful just making sure that no one could actually get to know him. One of his biggest fears is actually letting people in, thinking that hell just end up getting hurt and nothing good can come out of letting people in. Lux didn't have the best family life- and the circumstances ended up with him being landed in the foster care system once he was fourteen, after he graduated at seventeen he started to go to community college until he was old enough to get out of the system and then went to college as far away as possible. N/A Lux is definitely gay and despite him refusing to let anyone in he's a total sucker for romance and believes in a happy ending for everyone. He loves animals and music- has a talent for instruments, especially the violin, marimba, and guitar. He has a sweet spot for the violin, though.
