Plot
Olympia High; just another school full of teens with attitude, raging hormones, and the unsatiable desire to get out. Everything about Olympia High is normal; the fights, the romance, the sports, the clubs. There's just one thing that's abnormal about the school; well, fifteen things to be precise: Some of the students are Greek Gods reincarnated. Of course, the teens don't have a clue about their.. conditions, but once they all come together, they're bound to remember their divine pasts. Something will happen to make each and every one of them remember, something like an epiphany. The question is, will it end up in an unearthly bond between the group, or will it pull apart their relationships?

β – Follow Guild Rules and Gaia TOS. Romance, violence and swearing are allowed. No Cybering.
Γ – No God-Moddding! You may be actual gods, but everyone should get their say.
Δ – No Mary-Sues! No one is invincible, not even reincarnated gods.
ε – Respect each other! You’re characters don’t have to, but you should.

CharactersBelow is a list of characters, characters that have already been taken are indicated by the username attributed.
I have already assigned pictures (ignore horns and other such appendages), but if you have a huge problem with the picture provided, PM me and I'll consider your suggestion.
Also, you will be able to pick your character's human names, as well as other bio options, but please stay close to the God or Goddess's background info.
I understand that there are limited slots, but I do have ideas for extra characters if someone is desperate to be a part of the roleplay :3
This roleplay is first come first serve AND based on my knowledge of your writing skills if I have any... x)
P.S. It would make the roleplay alot more interesting if you looked up the god/goddess you're playing...
Aphrodite GermanxLullaby - Goddess of love, lust, beauty, seduction and pleasure. She is a free spirit, seeing life as an experience rather than the gateway to being successful. Although she has a boyfriend, Hephaestus, she is extremely flirty with others, most notably is Ares. Grade 11.
Apollo - Lady Sume God of music, healing, prophecies, poetry, and archery; associated with light, truth and the sun. Apollo is the artsy type, always expressing himself through any means necessary, especially when he can do it outdoors during the daytime. He is also the twin brother of Artemis. Grade 10.
Ares - The Subtle Lord God of war, bloodlust, violence, manly courage, and civil order. He is courageous, adventurous and athletic. He’s the kind of guy that is always involved in a fight, and most of the time he’s the one who’s winning. Grade 12.
Artemis - dragon_fire_313 Virgin goddess of the hunt, wilderness, wild animals, and childbirth; associated with the moon. She’s one of those girls that cannot stand to stay indoors; she loves everything from camping to climbing trees, and she absolutely loves the night time. She also loves animals, maybe even more than humans... She is twin sister to Apollo. Grade 10.
Athena - Irako of the Desert Virgin goddess of wisdom, warfare, strategy, heroic endeavour, handicrafts and reason. She’s got the looks and she’s got the brains. Always the one to break up fights, and always ready to stand up for her friends and what she believes in. Grade 11.
Demeter - Goddess of fertility, agriculture, horticulture, grain and harvest. Stubborn and protective over her younger sister, Persephone, she is extremely cautious and has a big temper, especially when it comes to Hades. The only things that can defuse her anger are her sister and gardening, her favorite hobby. Grade 11.
Dionysus - Psychoholic Slag God of wine, parties and festivals, madness, drunkenness and pleasure. He is the complete party animal and always has a way of getting others to join in. Grade 11.
Hades - T_trees_T King of the Underworld and god of death, the dead, and the hidden wealth of the Earth. He’s one of those dark, mysterious, misunderstood guys that all the ladies go head over heels for. It’s too bad that he’s got a thing for Persephone. Grade 12.
Hephaestus - God of fire, metalworking, stone masonry, sculpture and volcanism. He’s known to have a wicked spontaneous temper, but he usually takes his anger out on his sculpting. Not to mention he’s a bit of a pyromaniac. Aphrodite is his girlfriend. Grade 11.
Hera - SKBCTayuyaFluteofDeath Queen of Heaven and goddess of marriage, women, childbirth, heirs, kings and empires. She’s the queen bee of the school. Head of almost every student club; she’s popular, kind and extremely likeable. She’s always seen with her steady boyfriend, Zeus. Grade 12.
Hermes - T_trees_T God of travel, messengers, trade, thievery, cunning wiles, language, writing, diplomacy, and athletics. He’s a sly one; always starting rumors and planting thoughts in people’s minds, anything to make things go his way. He’s a track star and also a bit of a pick-pocket. Grade 9.
Hestia - Virgin goddess of the hearth, home and cooking. She’s your average, fun loving girl. Though, being Zeus’s younger sister, she may have been a bit sheltered growing up. Staying away from boys all of her life, it’s kind of hard to get Dionysus’s attention, so she tries desperately, usually taking the fall for the party animal when it counts. Grade 9.
Persephone – PeterPanflute The Queen of the Underworld; bringer of seasons. She’s that innocent, peaceful girl that’s always easy to get along with. She tends to find beauty in everything. She’s the younger sister of Demeter. Grade 9.
Poseidon - ichibi1 God of the sea, rivers, floods, droughts, earthquakes and horses; known as the "Earth Shaker" or "Storm Bringer". He is extremely smart, most likely on his way to being the valedictorian of his class, probably because he's excellent at persuading others to follow him. That and he’s the captain of the swim team. Grade 12.
Zeus - PeterPanflute The king of the gods, the ruler of Mount Olympus and the god of the sky, weather, thunder, law, order and fate. He’s trustworthy, dependable and extremely likeable. He tends to be protective over his friends, especially to his little sister, Hestia, and his girlfriend, Hera. Grade 12.

Accepted Characters
God or Goddess: Dionysus
Name: Donald Marion
Age: 17
Sexuality: Bi-Sexual
Personality: "What Donald wants, Donald gets," is the phrase that most readily sums up his life. Donald Marion dislikes listening to anyone in authority because it interferes with any fun he may be having at the moment. He told his parents that he wanted a car for his birthday, so they bought him one. He is very persuasive and very likable, and when he gets drunk, he becomes even more flirty than normal.
Likes: Easy women/men, drinking, having fun, driving fast, festivals
Dislikes: Women/men who play hard-to-get, getting in trouble, homework, unpopular kids, obeying rules
Username: Psychoholic Slag
God or Goddess: Persephone
Name: Lotus Lexerton - “Precious”
Age: 15
Sexuality: Straight, with a few bi-curious tendencies
Personality: Most people would see Lotus – or, as she is more often called, Precious – as a naïve little girl, childlike in her approach of the world. She finds a strange beauty in everything she sees, and approaches every situation wanting to see the best in it. Precious spends so much time with a smile on her face, or laughing, that seeing her without is an odd picture. She is far too trusting, mostly due to her sister’s overprotective tendencies, and this can get her into difficulties. For some unknown reason, she wears a little grain ear as her buttonhole on her school uniform, and uses it as her signature.
Likes: Cooking, Fresh Fruit and Vegetables, Flowers, The Moon, Dancing.
Dislikes: Pomegranates, Misers and “Scrooges”, Being Carried, Disappointing Someone, Conflict.
Username: PeterPanflute
God or Goddess: Apollo
Name: Randall McDowell
Age: 15
Sexuality: Questioning
Personality: As the designated "heir" to the military bloodline, Randall has been taught to value discipline and strength above everything else. At least, that's what his family wants to believe. Despite his talent and skill with a bow, his true passion is for music and lyrics. After a hard day of military-level training with his father and "friends", he loves to sneak away with his guitar or a notebook and express his whimsical side under the shining sun. He is nearly always in perfect health and has a knack for identifying medical problems, but also has a tendency to spiral into deep depressions in response to dreams and troubles with girls. Visions of the future and deja vu strike him often, though his family has told him they mean nothing and he now keeps them to himself. When focused and content with his situation, he is helpful, creative and caring. When unhappy with his life, he is moody, selfish and vengeful. He and his twin sister have recently begun to drift apart, leaving him to share his thoughts and feelings with no one.
Likes: Sunlight, music, eloquence, romantic poetry, well-made clothing, archery
Dislikes: Crude use of words, pitch blackness, cheap stuff, shallow-minded people
Username: Lady Sume
God or Goddess: Hera
Name: Ledell "Didi" Harris
Age: 18
Sexuality: Straight
Personality: Ledell's a queen bee, but she's not the catty, condescending type of queen bee that everyone hates except for her entourage. She's sweet and caring. Her popularity is solely because of her kind personality and the fact that she's in all the clubs at school and will sit at any table during lunch, no matter who's sitting there to begin with.
Likes: children, birds, talking with her friends, her boyfriend, flowers
Dislikes: seeing people being bullied, the dark, cold, cheating (and being cheated on), sloppiness
Username: SKBCTayuyaFluteofDeath
God or Goddess: Zeus
Name: Oliver Markson
Age: 18
Sexuality: Straight
Personality: In general, Oliver is a very easy-going, relaxed and relaxing guy, trying to keep things calm and in good tone. Used to being respected, Oliver never really needs to say more than a word to keep things in hand, and as a result, he's in a state of happy composure most of the time. He loves Ledell deeply, and has come to value her regard higher than anyone else's. His carefree attitude means that his eyes do wonder, and perhaps he shouldn't spend so much time around bad influences, but he just wants to live! Screw being stressed, Oliver just wants to be happy and not worry about anything in particular depth. Despite this, if he sees something unfair happening - worst, bullying - then something in him just boils over, and he will do all he can to stop it, even if he doesn't know either party, because he has a sense of moral rightness deep within him.
Likes: Thunder Storms, Laughing, Clear Skies, Honey, Sunning.
Dislikes: Loud Noises, Bullies, Moss, Needless Violence, Rice.
Username: PeterPanflute
God or Goddess: Athena
Name: Brianna Palles
Age: 17
Sexuality: Female
Personality: Brianna grew up on a little horse farm and could ride practically since she could walk. Her mother often volunteers to rehabilitate various wildlife, and usually takes in abandoned owlets or injured owls. Her father is a famous martial artist and often travels to work as a consultant for stunt production or to give demonstrations and hold workshops. She became a bit of a tomboy as a result, and has a deep sense of what is right and wrong. Brianna has a lot of common sense and a calm demeanor, and is often sought out for her advice on many matters by her peers. She likes to defend the underdog, and has gotten in trouble before for using her martial arts skills to do so. Hard physical work around the farm is no burden to her and has made her strong. She's also become very good at handling all the domestic chores, giving her mother a chance to focus on her rehabilitation efforts.
Likes: Owls, horses, being outside, tea, crocheting, and Italian food.
Dislikes: Being cooped up, jerks, girls with exaggerated opinions of themselves, senseless violence, and wearing super-complicated outfits.
Username: Irako of the Desert
God or Goddess: Aphrodite
Name: Ciel Kingsley
Age: 16
Sexuality: Bi-Sexual
Personality: Ciel is one of those girls you could never trust. She can talk you into anything, and you'd want to do it to please her. That was how she had so many "friends", and she'd drop anyone or all of them just to gain what she wanted. Playing with hearts is her game, and she wants to cause her pawns as much pain as she can.
Likes: Music, Dancing, the Sky, Flirting, Love
Dislikes: Haters, Possessiveness, The word: Slut, Fakes, Commitment
Username: GermanxLullaby
God or Goddess: Hades
Name: Samael "Seth" Mavros
Age: 18
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Personality: Seth is quiet, solemn, and mysterious. He is already hard to read, but the expressionless mask that always frames his face makes him even more so. He doesn't talk much, and keeps most things to himself. He only talks when necessary, but when he does, people tend to listen. He has odd interests; namely, the minerals that lay beneath the earth, and the sweet Lotus Lexerton. He has a sort of airy voice, barely audible, yet with a heavy, somber tone in it. Much about him is a mystery, which, for some reason, makes him only more attractive to the girls at school.
Likes: Silence | Simplicity | Black | Pretty Rocks | Lotus Lexerton
Dislikes: Gossipers | Unnecessary Noise | Cole Pilfer | Spoiled Brats [kids] | Bright Light
Username: T_trees_T
God or Goddess: Artemis
Name: Riley McDowell
Age: 15
Sexuality: Bi-Curious
Personality: Riley grew up in a military household, her father and his father before that serving in the military for a number of years. So when she and her twin brother were born, the men of the family quickly pegged him for being the new "heir" to the military prowless bloodline, little did they see Riley's natural talent. Since she was a child, she loved the outdoors. The smell of the garden after a spring rain. The feel of bark underneath her fingertips as she climbed the highest tree. Even the satisfaction of seeing a great valley after hiking for more than six hours. She loved everything about it. Since she was a child and put up against his brother and all of his friends, she grew a prominent distaste for men in general, mostly surrounding herself with her pets or the many sporting teams that she associated herself with. Also, from her military training, she is an excellent marksman with any rifle or bow and arrow, loves to hunt, and can survive in the wilderness for days on end without food or water.
Likes: The Outdoors, Thunderstorms, Hunting, Soccer, and Track.
Dislikes: Cocky and/or obnoxious people, Cafeteria food, Gossips, Homework, and High school drama.
Username: dragon_fire_313
God or Goddess: Hermes
Name: Cole Pilfer
Age: 14
Sexuality: Bisexual
Personality: Cole is mischievous, sly, and fun-loving. He is a bit of a blabbermouth, and literally hunts for all the juicy gossip roaming the halls of Olympia High. Once he gets it, he can't wait to pass it on. If he can't find any, he creates it. He works in the background, slithering between people to incite drama and excitement, so that he can watch from the sidelines. He practically directs the flow of gossip within the school. He is a bit of a silver-tongue, and he knows it too, using it to his advantage more than once. And, for some odd, odd reason, he can never stay out of trouble. It sticks to him like glue. Probably because he steals and pickpockets on a daily basis. He has to get caught every once in a while.
Likes: Money | Gossip | Track | Tricks | Wind
Dislikes: Tattletales | Rules | "Goody-goodies" | Arithmetic | Sluggishness | Bores [namely, teachers]
Username: T_trees_T
God or Goddess: Poseidon
Name: Astrayl Heartness
Age: 17
Sexuality: Male
Personality: Astrayl has always been more of a fun loving guy, he tries his best to look on the bright side of any situation. When something doesn't go right he usually finds his way to a pool or small pond. Water seems to calm him down rather fast and afterwards he will smile once again, even if it is really rare not to see him smile. When he does get angry, this is on vary rare occasions, his goes berserk at whoever hurt him or his friends. Last time he went berserk he sent three teens to the hospital. Afterwards Astrayl would act like nothing happened, he did not feel guilty for what he did because he believed that they deserved everything he did to them.
Likes: Candy, kids, smiling, playing, exercise, water, ponds, fish, horses
Dislikes: getting angry, feeling disappointed, being looked down upon, fighting, working hard, taking orders.
Username: ichibi1
God or Goddess: Ares
Name: Nemo Sabio
Age: 18
Sexuality: Heterosexual
Personality:Nemo isn’t a complete meathead or Neanderthal, like some would think he is. Though, he does have a strong drive to fight and to compete, ever since he was little. He is a bit more adventurous in spirit, with his ‘never fear anything’ attitude. He can rub off as cocky, and tends to rush headfirst into situations. His brute strength has gotten him into a lot of trouble. He seems a bit arrogant, probably due to his slightly imperious attitude. His strength isn’t something he showboats, he doesn’t go off on people unprovoked. Most people who he fights are usually asking for it.
Likes: Winning, Martial Arts, knives, smoking, order, sports, sweets
Dislikes: Losing, cowards, bubbly people, chalk, coffee
Username: The Subtle Lord

Current Setting
Date------------------------------Forecast
Mon, Aug. 25th-----------------Chilly and Overcast
Set in the city of Olympia, Washington. Olympia High is about five blocks away from Capitol Lake, and consists of a main building and a separate building for the gym, and a large track surrounding the football field. In the back, it is surrounded by sparse woods.
The town itself is large, though there aren't too many attractions. There's Priest Point Park which is on the lake, Turnwater Falls, and Capitol Theater. There's a good amount of other shops, restaurants and museums, as well.
(Due to the fact that I, myself, do not live in Olympia, nor have I ever traveled there, locations will be mostly fiction and very flexible.)

To be efficient, there will probably be timeskips when posting is slow.

 Ciel walked into school, her hat pulled over her right eye. She walked down the halls, her heels clicking loudly. She was one of the first ones at school, which gave her plenty of time to do what she needed to do. She headed to her English class, and knocked ever so lightly. Mr. Jackson welcomed her in, and then took a seat at his desk. Andy, can you please explain to me why my grade is so low? I should get an A. She said, leaning forward and sitting on his lap, causing her pink lip gloss lips to be right next to his ear. Don't you agree, Andy? She whispered, her voice slutry. She dropped her lips to the teacher's neck, and licked his collarbone. The teacher nodded, and she smirked. Glad to know you see the way I do, Andy. She drew her pink colored nails down the teacher's clothed chest and smirked. She then stood and struted out of the room. Teachers were such tools to get her grades up. Any gender, she could use them, and she did.
{ Ooo, she's fun to play now that I got in charaecter. }

 RileyxxxMcDowellxxx•xx•xx•▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Never complain, never explain.
The bigger the hat, the smaller the property.
Winning needs no explanation, losing has no alibi.
All our best heroes are losers.
▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬Riley woke up with a slight crick in her neck, while light streamed in through the blinds upon her window. Ugh, she hated mornings. Well no, that wasn't true. If it were a morning during summer, she would have been up well-before dawn, running through the woods that surrounded her house, taking up the trails to the highest peaks around and looking at the sights below her. But no, since it was the first day of school, her distaste for mornings began to surface once more. Groggily, she sat up and stretched, her back popping in a few places where joints shifted, before she swung out her legs before her and walked over to the bathroom, which she had her own of. She had shared far too many things with her brother over the years, but now that she was on the ledge of womanly maturity, she made sure that from now on, she'd have her own room and bathroom. Twisting the knob to the right, she sat on the toilet, staring blankly into space as she moved her hand under the pluming water for a few seconds before she readjusted the temperature. Once it was perfect, she stripped down out of her pajama shorts and teeshirt and hopped into the shower.
Around ten minutes later, Riley emerged. Her black-green hair, which resulted from a dying job gone pretty awesome (well that was only her opinion), damp and a few strands were stuck to her cheeks. She grabbed a towel and dried herself off before wrapped it around her hair to get all of the water out of it. That's when she glanced at the clock that hung in her bathroom. Damn, she needed to pick up the pace otherwise she'd be late. Hurrying over to her dresser, the young sophomore pulled out a black bra and a pair of matching panties before she slid them on. Closing that drawer, she hurried to the drawer beneath it, rummaging around before she chose a black tank top and a larger, red top that draped over her shoulder. Once those two were now slid over her slender, athletic figure, she then grabbed a pair of torn-up skinny jeans and wrapped a black belt with a heart for the clip before slipping on some black converse shoes and heading out. Well this wasn't her usual outfit of shorts and a jersey of some sort, but meh, it was the first day of school and she was still a girl; cardinal rule number one: dress to impress. Although there wasn't really anyone to impress. Sighing to herself, she brushed out her long hair before she pulled it up into a high ponytail and applied some minor makeup touches. Okay, now she was outta there. Luckily she only lived around the corner from the high school, so she would get there in a few minutes tops. Grabbing her backpack by the front door, an apple in hand, Riley then headed off for her first day of school at Olympia High.
[OOC: That's great to hear~!] ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
As we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
