A Composer of Dreams And I would like a Hades if ya'll don't mind. *grins* 12/15/2016 #2 |
Valhallan Rose Yup, you're good! 12/15/2016 #3 |
Divine Angle Thanatos and Khaos, if that's kosher? 12/15/2016 #4 |
Valhallan Rose Yup you, you're good! 12/15/2016 #5 |
Jacky the Serket Um, just curious. This list doesn't have every single deity (at least I don't think so I may be wrong), and...if we want one not listed, can we claim it as long as we give you proof that...you know, it's an actual deity? 12/17/2016 . Edited 12/17/2016 #6 |
Valhallan Rose Of course! Excluding Titans, and I need to note this in the rules, since the forum is set after Zeus overthrew Cronus and the Titans were banished to Tartarus. I tried to gather as many of them as I could, excluding monsters and all, which I still need to compile alongside the heroes. Hence why the forum is still labeled 'Under Contruction'. To tell a long story short, yes, you can claim a deity not on the list so long as you provide sufficient proof of their existence in mythology. 12/17/2016 #7 |
Jacky the Serket Cool, my dude. Anyways, I did want someone on this list. Can I have Aether? I think that's his name yeah. 12/17/2016 #8 |
Valhallan Rose Yup yup! I'll take him off the list for ya. 12/17/2016 #9 |
gftydyutfiuih GIMME MY MAMA ATHENA 12/17/2016 #10 |
Valhallan Rose Damn boy, alright then. *laughs* 12/17/2016 #11 |
Phyllis Joy Wolfe Can I make Clio both muse of History and of Storytelling? Since there kind of isn't one unless you include epic poetry (which, if I recall correctly, is the only form of that they had at the time.) Also, how far off the rails can I go? Because I'd kind of like to make Ate Dionysus and Eris's daughter? Not all accounts conclude she was Zeus's daughter, and frankly, I think she'd most likely be the spawn of Dinoysus and Eris. So on that note, basically I'd like to have Clio, and Ate. 12/31/2016 . Edited 12/31/2016 #12 |
Bill Friday I would like to claim Hermes please! 12/31/2016 #13 |
Valhallan Rose Joy: You're clear on all fronts. On Ate, I'll have to make note of her parentage so that way whoever claims those two knows what's going on with their child. So...accepted! Bill: Accepted, you are ready for launch. 12/31/2016 #14 |
Bill Friday Yay! thanks! 12/31/2016 #15 |
Phyllis Joy Wolfe Yays! = D *hears excess sizzling* MY BACON!!! 12/31/2016 #16 |
gonefromthissite01235344256347 I would like Hypnos and Morpheus, please. Nyx as well if possible, but those two are more of a priority. I would also like Zeus, but since you're still trying to figure out what to do with him, i'll hold off for now. 12/31/2016 #17 |
Daige Poisedon, Calypso, and Erebus, 1/1/2017 #18 |
Divine Angle Going to regrettably drop Khaos. He's... Well, I claimed him to mess with a certain archetype of character, but in retrospect, it's not an archetype I always do well with. Plus, there's much better roles in the mythos for what I had wanted to do with him, so I had little reason to have picked him. I'll respectfully drop him, if that's aight. 1/1/2017 #19In turn, I've had my eye on Tartarus a while now anyway, and he would make a fun god to work with owing to what he is, so may I go ahead and claim that if it's kosher? |
Valhallan Rose I shall make those edits, Jack, once I get off mobile. Daige, please read the top of this topic again after you accept the rules. 1/2/2017 . Edited 1/2/2017 #20 |
