Everyone knows of the Greek gods. But, some children know of them more. Every once in a while the gods come down to Earth to have affairs with mortals. Children are both between the union of god and mortals. Once the child is born, the god is no longer allowed to see that child and they are sent to live on Earth, never knowing of their heritage. Until the age of 16 when their powers develop and their mortal parents send them to Camp Half-Blood. Where they will train in ancient battle, learn to use and control their powers and learn to become the hero's of tomorrow. They are, and will always be, Demi-gods. And they will train until they day they are called upon to defend the Gods.


Zeus made a law after Poseidon fell in love with the mortal who carried his child. He spent seven months on Earth raising his child. Forgetting his duties as the God of sea, he nearly became mortal. Zeus wouldn't allow it, so he passed the law that no God or Goddess could ever see their child again. Even though they never get to see their child, they will still speak to them in times of great danger or trouble.

The Gods that share your blood.



Aphrodite- The goddess of love, beauty and desire. Although married to Hephaestus she had many lovers, most notably Ares. She was depicted as a beautiful woman. Her symbols include the rose, scallop shell, pomegranate, and myrtle wreath. Her sacred animal is the dove.

Apollo-The god of music, healing, plague,the sun prophecies, poetry, and archery; associated with light, truth and the sun. He is Artemis' twin brother and Hermes' elder brother, and son of Zeus and Leto. He was depicted as a handsome, beardless youth with long hair and various attributes including a laurel wreath, bow and quiver, raven, and lyre. Animals sacred to Apollo include dolphins, roe deer, swans, cicadas, hawks, ravens, crows, foxes, and snakes.

Ares- The god of war, bloodlust, violence, manly courage, and civil order. The son of Zeus and Hera, he was depicted as either a mature, bearded warrior dressed in battle arms, or a nude beardless youth with helm and spear. His attributes are golden armour and a bronze-tipped spear. His sacred animals are the vulture, venomous snakes, alligators, dogs, and boars.

Artemis- Virgin goddess of the hunt, wilderness, animals, young girls, childbirth and plague. In later times she became associated with the moon. She is the daughter of Zeus and Leto, and twin sister of Apollo. In art she was usually depicted as a young woman dressed in a short knee-length chiton and equipped with a hunting bow and a quiver of arrows. In addition to the bow, her attributes include hunting spears, animal pelts, deer and other wild animals. Her sacred animals are deer, bears, and wild boars.

Athena- The goddess of wisdom, warfare, battle strategy, heroic endeavour, handicrafts and reason. According to most traditions, she was born from Zeus's head fully formed and armored. She was depicted crowned with a crested helm, armed with shield and a spear. Her symbol is the olive tree. She is commonly shown accompanied by her sacred animal, the owl.

Demeter- The goddess of agriculture, horticulture, grain and harvest. Demeter is a daughter of Cronus and Rhea and sister of Zeus, by whom she bore Persephone. She was depicted as a mature woman, often crowned and holding sheafs of wheat and a torch. Her symbols are the Cornucopia (horn of plenty), wheat-ears, the winged serpent and the lotus staff. Her sacred animals are pigs and snakes

Dionysus- The god of wine, parties and festivals, madness, drunkenness and pleasure at forever young. He was depicted in art as either an older bearded god or a pretty effeminate, long-haired youth. His attributes include the thyrsus (a pinecone-tipped staff), drinking cup, grape vine, and a crown of ivy. Animals sacred to him include dolphins, serpents, tigers, and donkeys. A later addition to the Olympians, in some accounts he replaced Hestia.

Hades- King of the Underworld and god of the dead and the hidden wealth of the Earth. His consort is Persephone and his attributes are the key of Hades, the Helm of Darkness, and the three-headed dog, Cerberus. The screech owl was sacred to him. Despite being the son of Cronus and Rhea and the elder brother of Zeus, as a chthonic god he is only rarely listed among the Olympians. The name Pluto became more common in the Classical period with the mystery religions and Athenian literature.He did not have a throne in Olympus, but is still very known for being one of the three sons of Cronus.

Hephaestus- Crippled god of fire, metalworking, stonemasonry, sculpture and volcanism. The son of Hera by parthenogenesis, he is the smith of the gods and the husband of the adulterous Aphrodite. He was usually depicted as a bearded man holding hammer and tongs—the tools of a smith—and riding a donkey. His symbols are the hammer, tongs, and anvil. His sacred animals are the donkey, the guard dog and the crane.

Hera- Queen of marriage, women, childbirth, heirs, kings and empires. She is the wife of Zeus and daughter of Cronus and Rhea. She was usually depicted as a beautiful woman wearing a crown and veil and holding a royal, lotus-tipped staff. Her sacred animals are the heifer, the lion, the peacock, and the cuckoo.

Hermes- The god of travel, messengers, trade, thievery, cunning wiles, language, writing, diplomacy, athletics, and animal husbandry. He is the messenger of the gods, a psychopomp who leads the souls of the dead into Hades' realm, and the son of Zeus and Maia. He was depicted either as a handsome and athletic beardless youth, or as an older bearded man. His attributes include the herald's wand or caduceus, winged sandals, and a traveler's cap. His sacred animals are the tortoise, the ram, and the hawk.

Hestia- Virgin goddess of the hearth, home and cooking. She is a daughter of Rhea and Cronus and sister of Zeus. She was depicted as a modestly veiled woman, whose symbols are the hearth and kettle. In some accounts, she gave up her seat as one of the Twelve Olympians in favor of Dionysus.

Poseidon- The god of the sea, rivers, floods, droughts, earthquakes, and the creator of horses; known as the "Earth Shaker". He is a son of Cronus and Rhea and brother to Zeus and Hades. In classical artwork, he was depicted as a mature man of sturdy build with a dark beard, and holding a trident. The horse and the dolphin are sacred to him.


I will be adding Zeus to this list, but, NO ONE may share his blood because Zeus is very vain and believes that humans are beneath him. He knows they are important because without humans and their human beliefs in the Gods they will all die. But he will never have relations with a human.

Zeus- The king of the gods, the ruler of Mount Olympus and the god of the sky, weather, thunder, lightning, law, order, and fate. He is the youngest son of Cronus and Rhea, whom he overthrew after Cronus swallowed his brothers and sisters and he is brother-husband to Hera. In artwork, he was depicted as a regal, mature man with a sturdy figure and dark beard. His usual attributes are the royal scepter and the lightning bolt, and his sacred animals are the eagle and the bull.

The Rules

1) No godmodding. Duh. I am god. Piss me off and your a** is out the door. Period!

2) PLEASE be literate. I understand writers block but at least try a few sentences out okay? And I guess I should add, since apparently it's not clear enough, You need to be able to post paragraphs. If you can't do at least please don't bother joining because it's just a pain for you as well as for me. But, I do expect a minimum of 5 sentences per post.

3) Don't kill people off without permission, and when you get into fights, you can't dodge all of them. Grow up and admit when your not perfect.

4) Romance is fine and what not, but nothing more. Thanks.

5) When speaking please use " " and when you want to speak outside of the roleplay please use ( ) or [ ] or { } I don't really care what you use, just please make it very clear that you are not speaking in the roleplay. As well, please speak in third person.

6) You can use whatever colour you want okay? Just make sure that people can READ it just as plain and you can read what I've written here. Thanks

7) Pm me your profile with the title, I share my blood with (then post who your god/goddess is)! Put a pirate at the very end of your profile so I know you read and accept my rules.

8.) I know I'm going to be a pain in the butt here, but, everyone needs to post in size 12 font. I have really bad eyes and it takes me 5-10 minutes to read a post that is in size 10-11. Okay, I'm sorry but it has to stop.

9)Please pleas PLEASE, post more than once a day. I do understand that you have other rp's and whatnot but, in order for this rp to take off, we need everyone to post more than once a day

10) I will only allow three players to share the same God/Goddess. If we have too many of one god/goddess the rp will be one sided.

11) I will only allow every player to have a maximum of 3 characters. Otherwise people tend to lose track of their characters. I will allow certain people to have 4 characters if I believe you can handle it.

12) Okay, this has become a very fast moving rp, so if you can't keep up, you need to PM me and let me know that you will not be continuing, Period.

13) Alright, so you can also pm your profiles to Rapier-wolf if I am not on, since he is now my Co-Creator of this rp. As well, Username Why Not Zoidberg is now my body guard. So she has full authority to b.itch you out if you don't follow my rules. Same goes for Rapier-wolf. You will treat them with the same respect as you treat me because they are my minions and if you piss them off, you can expect the same treatment from me smile

I should mention that JUST the Camp is in medieval times. There are no modern weapons or modern appliances or anything like that. There are no light bulbs. Everything is lit by candle light. Every student has their own private room. They pretty much live like kings. There are no full humans. The camp is protected by a magical barrier that only Demi-gods and mythical creatures can pass through. The only real modern appliances are running water, fridge, stove. There are showers and bath tubs.Besides that, there is nothing else.



The twist has been Revealed (along time ago actually. Sorry been a little distracted lately). But, basically the Gods have declared War on the Demi-Gods. Let the battle begin!!!!

Adonis breathed heavily as he ran, swinging his sword at anyone who stepped in his way. He had a goal, he grunted in pain when he felt cold bronze pierce his side. Other than the grunt he showed no sign of feeling the injury. His eyes darted back and forth across the blood covered field, "Adonis! Here! She's over here!" He lifted his head as he heard his name, instantly he began sprinting faster in the direction he was being called. Acquiring many injuries that he ignored while still managing to slice the limbs of men dressed in enemy colors. He felt blood rushing to his head and still it seemed to be draining from his body.Adonis narrowed his eyes as he saw a circle of men bent down low to he ground over someone. Dread filled his heart as he realized what was too happen, he rushed over pushing the men out of his way, Adonis found himself staring down at the face of his wife, the shared a look of pain as they gazed at one another. Adonis found himself unable to speak, of all the moments it had to be now that he be incapable of forming words. He heard his wife shushing him gently before she placed her arms around his neck, whispering into his ear, "Promise you'll find me in the next life." Shaking, Adonis nodded his head and he held the woman close, "I promise love."
He felt the brush of her lips on his cheek before she hung limp in his arms. He wasn't sure how long he stayed there with his wife, continuing to hold her. However a sharp pain in his chest ripped him away.

With a shout Adonis woke up on the damp ground of the sparring field. He was on all fours, gripping the ground with clenched fists. He gave another frustrated yell before wiping the tears that ran down his cheeks. Again, he had the dream, the memory. Again, he didn't know who she was or what she looked like. But he felt the pain of being ripped away from her. He looked up at the midnight sky and glared at the moon, he'd been sleep walking again. Why was it at camp he relived the scen more vividly than any where else?
He could smell the blood and pain, see clearly the faces on the battle field, but never hers. Part of him wanted to scream, yell and curse at Aphrodite. But he knew to do such a thing would be ungrateful. Adonis knew this wasn't his first life and he knew somewhere in the world, the woman he dreamed of existed. With a final small sob, Adonis buried his sorrow yet again, before pushing himself off the ground. Feeling too weak kneed to walk all the way back to his cabin he went over to the nearest log and laid across it on his stomach. He prayed to Aphrodite for what seemed the thousandth time, to help him find the woman before closing his eyes and drifting into yet another fitful sleep.

User ImageShilo sighed heavily as she sat down on her new bed. She had just arrived at Camp Half Blood. A teacher had directed her to her room and she had walked into it and collapsed on the bed. It was comfy. She then walked around the room examining everything carefully. It looked like a fairly modern home for the most part. It had a fridge, dishwasher, oven. In the bathroom, there was a large walk in shower, a huge claw foot tub, a toilet and a sink. There was no lights, everything was lit by candle light. It was beautiful in it's own way. Guess they didn't want their students going into culture shock. She sighed as she glanced to the weapons that covered a whole wall. She knew why she was here but she still wasn't sure how she felt about this whole situation. She had just wanted to talk to her mother and she didn't know how to get her to talk to her. She sighed heavily as she flopped down on the bed. She didn't know what she was going to do.

User Image Clarise was just simply reading when she heard someone enter the room next to her and smiled knowing it was a new camper that had came to camp. She then closed her book and placed it on the various shelves that she had made over the years with books ranging from fiction to non fiction. Her favorites were books about culture history and the different ways the people would go to war and use different tactics to win the battles. She then looked outside her window and saw that the moon and stars were out and was not surprised that she had read all day. She then picked up the candle she had been reading by and walked into the bathroom along with a pair of pajamas and changed into them before walking out of the bathroom and placing the candle on a small table that was next to her bed. She then curled up into her covers and made a mental note to practice her fighting skills in the morning after breakfast and blew out the candle.

And so the chattering and bickering, and so on and so forth began. Akay arriving early that morning had headed straight to her room and fallen back asleep in the bed. Now that it was late after people slowly began filing in and making all sorts of noise and clatter that go along with unpacking. Sitting up slowly, she stood up stretched walking to the open door and peeking out. Girls everywhere, some of the returners waved to friends and greeted new ones. Akay put on a smile and began roaming the halls, saying hi and nice to meet you to those who pass. She left the building into the open air and her smile grew genuine. The camp was set in the heart of woods, a place she would forever call a second home. Closing her eyes, she took a deep breath and listen to the sounds around her. Leaves rustling in the wind, swoosh of a gentle breeze, and a small chirp of what sounded like a robin. Akay followed the shallow chirps and found the robin perched on a low branch of an oak. She smiled and whistled the same tune back, something her father taught her when she was young. The small robin replyed and there she carried on a conversation, all the while and smile planted upon her face
