[Iam Loveless]

Story

Long ago, there were many gods. They were the most beautiful beings of all, and perhaps some of the cruelest. They guarded the earth and all its secrets, protecting the people of the land as best they could while toying with them when they were bored. These gods lived on Mount Olympus, far away from the mortals so they could help them but not gain their taint. For hundreds of years these gods ruled, and mortals were content to live under them. These beings, while always toying and seducing them, were there to protect them. It was worth the sorrow to have that protection.

But the reign of the gods did not last for long. After hundreds of years, christians came to the land and started telling of only one God. The mortals listened, and were astounded. This God sounded much better than the ones they were forced to follow. One by one the people were turned to Christianity. One by one they forgot about the gods that had protected them until then. And as they were forgotten, so the gods disappeared. For what use was there for them when no one believed anymore?

Now, centuries later, the gods have appeared once more. But not as their previous immortal selves. No, now they are the very things they had toyed with when they were alive: mortals. The gods were reincarnated in human bodies, with only a fraction of their former powers and no longer able to live forever or stay young. While angered, these new gods could do nothing about it. The only way they can regain their former glory is to learn what they had not learned so long ago. Compassion, honesty, sympathy, and all other things that would make them capable rulers. The gods, however, do not know this.

And now, it would seem that someone knows of their existence. The twelve gods reborn are invited to attend a prestigious boarding school that caters only to the best. The invitation strokes their egos, and they accept. When they get there, they realize that the school is filled with beings. Not just gifted or rich mortals, but also creatures once thought forgotten. Nymphs, Driads, centaurs, and all other manner of creatures. The moment they step in, they feel as if they belong there. Here at this school, they can learn to use what powers they have (while they are reincarnations, they do not have all the memories and so do not remember how to use their powers) and get to know mortals better. Here they can actually live, falling in love or just having fun.

But there is a dark secret behind this school. Someone brought the gods here not so they could survive, but so he could control them. Cronus, denied his right to rule by Zeus so long ago, has appeared once more and will use any means necessary to bring the now teenage gods under his control. Their teachers are his minions, beautiful beings meant to seduce the equally beautiful gods, as are some of their classmates. Only you can decide whether the gods will follow Cronus, who wants to return things to how they once were, or if they will fight him and keep things as they are.

[Iam Loveless]

Setting

The gods are now at the school for the very first time. It's away from the town, secluded in the middle of an ancient wood. This is mainly because the school wants to hide the supernatural beings that reside here. The rooms are co-ed, and can hold up to two people. There are a few single rooms, but you have to pay extra for them. Out back is a large area of ground where the students can train to fight and practice their powers.

Hecate
~Gaia Name:

~God/Goddess:
Hecate
~Mortal Name:
Destera Micheals
~Age:
17
~Race:
Goddess
~Personality:
Quiet and withdrawn. She doesn't speak unless spoken to or unless it's important. Therefore, when she does speak, everyone tends to listen. She dislikes the people who thinks looks are everything, even though she herself is beautiful. She also doesn't like people who pick on those are "below" them. She's protective of those who come to her for help, and isn't afraid to do whatever it takes to help them. She has a quick wit and is labeled the Queen of Sarcasm, since if someone makes a stupid comment that's what they get from her. She loves the dark of the moon, when all light has disappeared.
~Bio:
Destera is the middle of five siblings. Out of them all, she is the one that was always misunderstood. She was withdrawn during the day, always avoiding contact with others. But at night, especially on nights when no moon shone, she was alive. She danced beneath the sky, praising the dark and all the creatures that came with it. Not the evil ones everyone thought of but the real ones, the beautiful beings. Destera wasn't well-liked at her school because of her differences, but she did have one or two friends. So when the letter from the boarding school came, her parents thought that perhaps she could go there and make a new start. Besides, she seemed excited about it.
~Powers:
Destera is able to see the souls of the dearly departed, though she cannot lead them yet. She can use witchcraft, though just in small amounts.

~Gaia Name:

~God/Goddess:
Athena
~Mortal Name:
Arielle Christine Oliver
~Age:
17
~Personality:
Arielle is, in short, a quiet bookworm with a superiority complex and a know-it-all attitude. She is quite the bright one - and she knows it. She doesn't talk very much, and if she does she is rather terse. This is not due to shyness, but due to her rather condescending air. She has no patience for anyone who can't keep up with her mentally, and is not at all hesitant to throw a spectacled-glare and tell them to get lost. Of course, she's not entirely aloof - she loves a good debate, and argues just for the sake of arguing. She's rather fond of an engaging conversation with someone on her intellectual level and about a topic she finds interesting. She can be a bit of a geek at times, and is easily absorbed and a bit overenthusiastic when working on something that catches her attention. While getting her interested is difficult, when something does pique her curiosity, it does so to the extreme. She is usually most drawn to topics involving science and math, usually ones involving astrophysics. Though she may be booksmart, her common sense is a bit lacking, and she has very little real-world knowledge.
~Bio:
Arielle is the sheltered only child of upper-middle class parents. From an early age, she was far more interested in her books and little toys than she was in playing with other children. Her parents quickly got the message, and she entered private school at the age of four, already able to read with little effort. Small classes and highly individualized lessons lead to Arielle branching off almost entirely from her classmates. While she did what she required to by the school in all her subjects throughout her school years, she was quick to decide on her specific interests and go above and beyond only in those areas. While she learned what she needed to in history, writing, languages, and the like, her knowledge in literature, mathematics, and science skyrocketed. Working on a high school level by the time she was in fifth grade, her cocky attitude didn't need much of a push to come to the surface. In middle school, still at a private academy, she recieved a high-quality, rather expensive telescope, which quickly rose to the position of her best friend. It still maintains that rank, and is rather customized by the girl's mechanical handiwork. When she recieved the letter inviting her to the boarding school, she took the offer without batting an eye - it was just another school, after all.
~Powers:
Arielle is quite talented with birds, owls in particular, though no longer has the ability to speak to them. She also occasionally finds herself with knowledge she would realistically have no way of knowing, but she has no idea where it comes from.

Hera

Artemis
~Gaia Name:
Kiki_Hiraku
~God/Goddess:
Artemis
~Mortal Name:
Kinara “Kin” Winset
~Age:
18
~Personality:
Kin is fairly easygoing. She prefers to be alone, but will tolerate interaction with people for short amounts of time. When she talks, she is genuine. She’s a good listener and an animated speaker, but usually deflects any personal questions. She keeps a positive look on her face and keeps most thoughts and other emotions to herself.
She likes to think of herself as a very strong individual; a flaw in itself, as she does not know her own limits.
She is also very defensive. If she feels threatened or teased, she comes off as stuck-up and haughty (a reflection of her goddess roots). And if you get her angry, she will hold a grudge like nothing you’ve ever seen.
And she likes to be outside. A lot. So much so that she’ll sleep in trees. She alternates between being a hardcore tomboy and a polite debutante.
~Bio:
Kin was quite wild as a child. She comes from a well-to-do family that tried their best to squash their daughter’s spirit, and failed miserably. To this day, they try to get her to act like a lady, and sometimes she will (if only to throw them off).
Growing up, Alex liked to play sports, and excelled in track-and-field and martial arts at the posh private schools she attended. She also discovered a love of archery, and worked odd-jobs to buy a quality bow (her parents refused to pay for it).
Her estranged parents decided to send her to the new school in a last-ditch attempt to make her a valuable human being in society. Kin went without a fuss; it wasn’t like she had any friends at her old school (they were all bitchy snobs).
~Powers:
Kin has deadly accuracy (primarily with a bow, is also partial to guns); don’t give her weapons in general (just to be on the safe side). She’s good at “finding people”, using a sort of psychic tracking system she doesn’t understand. She's also very good with animals and is gradually developing heightened senses.

Ceres
~Gaia Name:
SerenityWings
~God/Goddess:
Ceres
~Mortal Name:
Serenity Ceresa de lune VanAnderson (Destiny)
~Age:
17
~Personality:
She is very odd. Its like she has multi-personalities. She's either calm and cold, rarely showing emotion like an ice queen, kind, soft, quiet, and motherly like an earth goddess woule be portrayed as, or wild, confident, and tempermental. Each personality has its name. The first is usually called 'Kaori', the second, 'Serena' and the third, 'Sierra'. But usually, she's just shy, quiet, and calm. But watch out. She has a violent temper when angry. She'd rather be called Destiny. Is a mediator, not a fighter and is very tuned with nature and animals.
~Bio:
Destiny was born into a pretty rich family. She is an only child and has traveled from place to place. She doesn't really have that many friends, but she's not some charity case either. Her parents usually travel so she lives almost by herself, though thats never really bothered her, or so she says. People believe her personality disorder was set off by her family life. No one really knows. She's pretty good at keeping control of herself though. She's been taught to be 'perfect'. She can sing, play piano, violin, flute, harp, and a couple other instruments. She was the goddess of Earth, agriculture, etc. Even though Destiny was supposed to be reborn as Demeter, or Ceres as she is called, she actually was born as Demeter/ Ceres AND Persephone, goddess of spring. She has memories of the past sometimes but rarely.
~Powers:
She can feel emotions of people, animals and plants sometimes, see auras mostly. Different colors mean different things. But being the goddess of earth and spring, she can make things grow and is connected to plants sometimes.

~God/Goddess:

~Mortal Name:
Tatianna
~Age:
16
~Personality:
Tatianna is an exciting girl, she's determined with competition, hates to lose, and could careless mostly about how people are feeling- except for that is, if she likes a guy. She'd do anything to have her guy like her, just as most 16 year olds are. She's a bit elusive when it comes to letting people understand her motives and morals, which makes her a mystery at times. She's vain, and she thinks beauty is the only thing that matters in life, besides for boys and gossip. There's more to her than meets the eye though, and sometimes she gets frusterated because no one gets her. So overall, she's just a confused, vain, teenage girl trying to figure her life out.
~Bio:
Tatianna was born from an Egyptian mother and a french father. She was raised on the nile from birth until 11 years of age, and then her family moved to France, and that became her home.
~Powers:
She can manipulate mostly anyone to her will, but the hardest of souls resist her enticing beauty, which she uses as her power. She can sometimes toy with people's emotions in situations. Example: Her mother was crying over a fight with her father and Tatianna soothed her quickly with a touch of her hand.
~Crush:
She's eyeing the hard to get men.

~Age:
17
~Personality:
Danny is fairly social. He's normally cheerful and considerate but tends to hide what he's thinking from others making him seem quite distant from the rest of his friends. He has a fairly even temper, but piss him off on one of his bad days then you'll truely regret it, although he is rarely in a bad mood. He's popular at school and tries to get along with everyone.
~Bio:
Daniel was raised with foster parents when his real parents split up and moved out of the country when he was 5, deciding their son was to much of a hassle to bring with them. Daniel didn't mind though as he never saw his parents often because they were constantly away on business trips and leaving Daniel alone in the house. Daniel liked his foster parents but when they decided they wanted a child of their own Daniel thought it was best to move out. When he was 16, he bought a small appartment with the money his parents had left him and lives there with his cat, Lucifer (which, ironically, means in Latin: "carrier of the light".)
~Powers:
Has a presise aim with weapons and has recently been able to generate fire from his hands but has not told anyone about this. He has yet learn how to combine the two powers together.

An insane teen, like the majoraty of kids 13 - 18. Andrew is just plain wild, always breaking the rules or going past the boundaries of himself or anyone else.

He always takes them whenever his emotions are gettion a bit too overwhelming for him. Andrew smokes and drinks too, wherever he is Andrew is usually holding a cigerrete inbetween his middle and index finger.

Overall, Andrew is just plain moody.
~Bio:
Andrew grew up as a younger brother to the "Sports Superstar", Dwane (as his mother and father refered to him.) His dad was always taking him to a soccer or football game. Leaving Andrew alone to himself, his palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy. There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's left-over meatloaf. One night, all alone, Andrew picked up the phone, it was the police. After that he was tramatized for a few days, drenching himself with smokes, drugs, and alchohol... Andrew had just discoved his father and brother had died in a car crash on the way back from a winning game, it was a angry, drunk father of one of the loosing team's boys. Luckly, his mother was the only on wearing her seatbelt. When she got home, Andrew's mom started to drink, a lot. Not as much as Andrew, but a lot. But she didn't care, if she stopped him she would just be hipocritical, right?
~Powers:

[Iam Loveless]

Dark eyes studied the building before her as Destera Micheals stepped out of the old-fashioned carriage that had carried her from the main road here. She had to admit, the building itself was impressive. It had been recently renovated, according to the brochure, but it didn't look as new as most would have. It still held the quaint charm and awe-inspiring feeling most old buildings had. A sharp crack behind her signaled the driver urging the horses to walk, leaving the seventeen-year-old girl standing in front of the school. So was she expected to find her way around on her own? Lovely. A sigh escaping her lips, Destera adjusted her only bag on her shoulder and began walking up the steps to the door. At least she wouldn't have to worry about lugging in all her boxes. They were already here.

Small heels clicked against the stone the steps were made of, the sound echoing through the air. Well, Destera thought as she walked, at least if I have to wander aimlessly people might pay more attention to my outfit than what I'm doing. It was true, her outfit was something to inspire glances. Black jeans that clung tightly to her legs, disappearing into black boots. A black corset resting over a deep purple shirt, and a pentagram hanging from a silver chain gently resting against her chest. Her eyes were surrounded with purple eye shadow, a look that suited her. For today she had pulled her hair into a ponytail, so it wouldn't bug her.

When she reached the top of the stairs, Destera saw that a woman was waiting for her. One look told the former goddess this woman was a mortal, as she had none of the otherworldly beauty most creatures had.

"Welcome to Pantheon," the woman said with a smile. "I'm Mrs. Maria, the secretary. I'll be your guide for the moment."

•' Andrew Carter '•

Andrew dropped a used ciggerete and slammed one of his feet to see the ashes spread upon the bottom of his chunky, black boots. He was standing outside the school, the big, fancy, stupid school. A quiet desperation let out of Andrew's heart and took form of a sigh that slipped fluently from his lips. Puffs of smoke came out from his lungs as he did so, the smoke danced in the air for a few seconds, then it dissapeard, gracefully and quietly.

The former god took a step forward; entering the beautifully crafted school. He pulled up his pink belt, for it was falling off from the safety of his hip. Andrew's outfit caued a few weirded-out glares. He was wearing a rainbow shirt with a black star splat in the middle that complemented the back part of his hair, with vibrant, bright colors, but in the front is was plain black. One sleve of the shirt was ripped off, the other was a full, long sleve. He had pants were colored a hot pink, with small, light pink stars placed carefully on. He had two diffrent gloves on, one was short, black, with white stripes on it, the other was fishet.

Andrew started up the stairs and pulled out another ciggerette. He pulled out a small, teal colored lighter. A small fire let out from it. The ciggerette puffed smoke as Andrew inhaled. It felt so good to smoke for him, he was so used to it.

Andrew saw to laidies talking at the top of the stairs, one had everlasting beauty and long, long black hair tied neatly in a ponytail. She looked more like his age, and based on he beauty, she seemed like a goddess. One was more formal, a bun tied in an orderly fashion, she was holding a clipboard. She looked like a secrtary.

Andrew stepped to the top of the stairs, the secrtarty gave a weak smile.

"Welcome to Pantheon." She nervously paused for a second. "Erm, smoking isn't allowed inside the school." The woman said as she twiddled hir fingers, by the looks of it, she seemed afraid of Andrew. But it didn't matter, almost everyone.

"Screw it." Andrew stated as he flicked the used ciggerette dowm the stairs, bounce, bounce, bounce. It went. The ciggrette's light faded away in a final fight to stay alive as it landed at the bottom.

The woman gave another weak smile as Andrew gave her the evil eye. He looked over at the other girl, she seemed about seventeen, like him.

"Yo." The words escaped from the former God's lips as he looked over at the black-haired girl, her beauty astonished him, but his face showed nothing.

"Screw all the rules, you only live once."
