˟『Ｇｒｅｅｃｅ.』 Once one of the most powerful civilizations in history. One can only assume that such a civilization would have a powerful leader. And considering the times, that powerful leader must have prayed to a higher power.... or multiple higher powers. These were the Greek gods, who influenced their people and led them to the many victories they claimed. The gods, as powerful as could be, were at their peak in those times. Now, things are different. As time went on, humans started to change and take things into their own hands. The gods couldn’t help but get a tad lazy and strayed away from their duties. It was hard for them to evolve as fast as the humans, and eventually they all ended up on Earth alongside the humans, major and minor gods alike.

˟『Ｉｔ ｉｓ ｎｏｗ ｍｏｄｅｒｎ ｄａｙ.』 The gods have been leading lives among the humans in secret for hundreds of years now. Many are satisfied with how things are currently, others... not so much. Either way, a great disturbance in their current lives has made itself known. An unknown voice has called to the gods, reminding them of what once was and how they have the chance to get it back. The voice promises to restore the god hierarchy, new human followers, and their once glorious lives back. The gods can’t help but feel their old power flow through their veins and remember their old lives vividly. It’s unavoidable, the message has been spread and now it is up to the god to get back into shape. There’s one problem, though - the minor gods want power.

˟『Ｔｈｅ ｔｒｕｔｈ ｉｓ』 that the major gods have been neglecting their duties, and the minor gods have decided they deserve ultimate power. It was bound to happen after the reign of the gods started to fall through, but the higher they are the harder they fall. It seems the major gods have taken a very bad fall compared to the minor gods. As a way to start shifting the power, the minor gods have sealed away Olympus, locking everyone out. The only way to unseal it is to have all of either minor or major god’s power sealed away. Yes, the minor gods are in the same boat as the major, but the minor gods made a pact. Their pact was to keep up the duties of the gods they seal away. They know they deserve the very top of the hierarchy of gods, considering how the majors turned out.

˟『Ｅａｒｔｈ』 is the god’s battle ground. Thus begins the war for Olympus, and supreme reign. ❦

『 What Saya Mini and Manly Monroe say goes. No Questions asked.』

『 No Godmodding (uh...)』

『 Follow Gaia TOS.』

『 Courtesy and respect will be shown to fellow roleplayers. Your character can be a douche, but seriously, be considerate of others via OOC.』

『 This is a casual lit roleplay, which means we're expecting at least a paragraph per post, preferably two or more. Post at the very least once a week please. Do your best with grammar and punctuation as well.』

『 Reserves are held for one week. Please post your profile in the appropriate thread after it is approved.』

『 Posting format should be decent. Name and picture of character at the least, but all that extra good stuff is encouraged.』

『 Please wait at least two posts before posting again.』

『 If you’re going to be inactive for a bit please let Saya Mini or Manly Monroe know ASAP.』

『 If you read the rules, send a picture of Cersei Lannister with your reserve. No Cersei, no reserve. ^.^』

『 To "kill" a god: A god can only be killed by first retiring from their “god” status which turns them mortal. No being can make a god retire unless it’s on the god’s own terms. A kind of leverage must be used against the targeted god to make him or her surrender their powers, whether it be blackmailing, or a fair trade of some sort. After the god surrenders away their power, their opponent can then seal the powers away in a pure amethyst stone. Only amethyst stones will work, for the amethyst can easily soak up the powers of the gods just like it so easily soaked up the color of Dionysus’ wine when the stone was created. And when sealing away a god’s power, a chant must be uttered for the process to begin.

μπορεί υπόλοιπο εξουσία σας στην ειρήνη μπορεί να το επιστρέψει όταν είναι η κατάλληλη στιγμή is the chant that must be said to commence the sealing process. It means, “may your power rest in peace, may it return when the time is right.” After this, the god is no longer immortal and posseses no special abilities.』

『 Here is some basic information about the gods/goddesses.』

『 Here is the in-character chat.』

『 Whenever you run into conflicting myths, contact anyone playing the characters who are involved and choose one to go with. Mythology is rife with inconsistencies...』

[saya shiver]

『 Anime pictures only, please!』

『 Do research on your god/goddess (if you don't already know about them). You should know things like who their parents are, any special powers they have, if they have siblings, etc. This information will be in the skeleton as well, so do your best to make sure it's accurate.』

『 TO RESERVE: all you have to do is PM me a picture of your god/goddess and put their name in the subject line. Please don't resize them as I'll be cropping + adding a slight transparency for the tiles. Also, please read the rules before sending in your reserve.』

『 REGARDING NAMES: considering our gods/goddesses are on Earth, it makes sense for them to have a "human" name they use to interact with humans. So feel free to put this under "nicknames" if you plan to do something like that. You could write your post using their god name or a different name they've been referred to throughout mythology/history or their human name, I don't really mind as long as it's clarified.』

『 Okay here is your super rushed not very pretty code gah PROFILES should be in first person, meaning from the perspective of your character. I'm leaving it pretty free-form. There are requirements, but they're fairly abstract. Feel free to change colors. Also please leave the Roman numerals on there. When you're done with your profile PM it to me! A link to a post in your test thread is fine.』
