In further regards to a myth, this is how it has to work:

The character has to be from a myth, it has to have a story line, multiple characters, and an ending. I must be able to read the story online, and you must send me a link to it so I can read it. This is simply because there are many characters, many that are repeated in stories. I need the story you’re going to use. Yes, the character can take place in multiple stories as long as the character in the RP can live out all of these stories in one life time. In other words, if they die in all stories, then they cannot play multiple stories, you have to pick one and attach that story somewhere in the profile, preferably in the extras area.
In other words, you cannot play just a popular figure who acts out in no written down story. Understand?

Any questions?

Also, I am now accepting a third profile for those who wish to make a third character. Please, do not make a third character if it diminishes you writing ability or posting amount for any of your previous characters.

Hello, My name is
    Martin Chevalier

I Have Been on this Earth for About
    15 Years

I am of the
    Male Gender

I'm staying in dorm number
    6

I'm currently enrolled in grade number
    10


c o l o r m e p r e t t y


How I Normally Look
    Martin stands at 5’8” due to his slouching posture. If he stood at his full height, it would give him 2 more inches. He doesn’t like being part of the tall people because that makes him noticeable. Even though the slouching doesn’t really help with the height issue, it does convey a feeling of “oh don’t mind me.” Unlike many of his peers, he wears no makeup on his face. He does know how to apply stage makeup and foundation like no one’s business (which it really IS no one’s business). Depending on what he’s wearing, he may put makeup on his arms or whatever is showing. He is never shirtless for a reason – he has many scars on his back and a few smaller ones on his chest. There’s a pattern of cigarette burn scars on his left shoulder. His right forearm has a huge long scar running down the outer side which usually gets a bit of concealer to hide the darker color. He’s got a bite mark on his left elbow from what looks to be a dog. There’s a surgical scar on his upper right thigh from where his leg was broken and more scattering of nicks and burn scars on his lower legs. Suffice to say, he never wears shorts.

    He usually wears light neutral colors though he has been known to dabble with darker cool colors. He does not like black and never wears it. Even at a funeral, he’d rather wear dark grey than black. Martin enjoys comfy leather shoes and is fond of his leather sandals. He likes collared shirts with long sleeves though he always rolls them up. Long khaki pants are his favorite and he has a bronze octagonal pendant hung on a leather strap for a necklace.

Fairytale Appearance
    Disney was pretty close to the original beast. The Beast’s snout was longer and teeth much sharper. The cloak he wears is burgundy and has dark blue slacks that are ripped at the bottom. He needs no shirt as the beast. As for how he actually turns into a 6’7 furry monster with horns a wee bit too sharp for comfort? The pendant he wears on his neck is actually a talisman to switch him from human to beast. All he would have to do to switch is hold the talisman in his palm and call out the form he wished to take (beast or human).

    As a prince, he wears a navy coat with gold trimming and white shirt underneath. His pants are skin tight with the white stockings, much like a French prince’s would be. His hair is combed over to the side and is currently being grown out so that he could put it in a small ponytail. He's not fond of long hair on himself, but whatever. His crown is more bronze than gold due to age but it is still extremely detailed and inlaid with various jewels (for the few times he ever gets to wear it).


y o u o u g h t t o k n o w


How I am
    In general, he’s very timid and shy. He doesn’t like being around large groups of people and has tendency to make sure he knows where his exits are. He’s easily intimidated and is a coward. If people have to get hurt in order for him to be safe, he’s okay with that. He loves the Academy since they are the ones who saved him from his former life. They are his saviors, so if they ask him for something, chances are he’ll do it with a smile. He’s used to being hurt so he’s paranoid of anyone attempting to touch him. While he’s a lot more comfortable around girls than guys, this doesn’t mean he’s touchy feely with them. He doesn’t deal well with the promiscuity of the girls, but so long as no one comes to him for “a good time,” he won’t make a fuss. Yes, he’s still a virgin. No, he’s not embarrassed about it. When faced with a fight, he passes out. He doesn’t like violence nor does he like pain. His immediate response to a threat is to black out or run.

    Oddly enough, he’s very intuitive when it comes to people’s feelings and motivators. Martin can tell a lot just by how a person is posing. If asked how he knows, he changes the subject. People’s body language usually tells him whether they are safe to approach or not. He doesn’t really like the baddies since they always tense up for a fight around him. He’s not sure why. Martin doesn’t bother them though and in return, they don’t bother him. He’s not sure he really wants to know why they haven’t fought anyway. He’s happy finally and he’s going to make sure his life stays that way.

How I came to be
    Martin was born in France and lived with his mother and father. His mother adored and spoiled him as a kid before pneumonia killed her. Her death devastated his father and soon he turned his rage on his only son. Martin was abused constantly as a child and had been starved a few times because his father forgot to feed him. His father’s friends would also take turns beating him if he didn’t serve them correctly when they came to visit. One them even used a German Sheppard on him…actually, he doesn’t really remember what happened to the dog. He just remembers the bite on his elbow before blacking out. The reason for his abuse was due to the fact he looked so much like his mother. He was beaten up a lot and always in places that people wouldn’t see. He became terrified of crowds and didn’t like men. Thank God he was never sexually abused but there were a few times where some drunk attempted.

    The reason why he rarely got hit in the face was because he was the one sent out for groceries and if he had lots of bruises, the police would get involved. He was a servant. Actually he wasn’t even that. He was a pet. Filth. He was never going to get a better life than the one he lived.

    Then the Academy came for him. They’d found him in an alley and took him back home. When the school offered him free tuition, food, clothes, and whatever else he wanted, he jumped at the chance. His father disagreed. He’d even attempted to hit Martin in front of the Academy representative but Martin was saved by the representative. He packed his bag and took the only picture left of his mom with him and never looked back. When he finally arrived at the boarding school, they warned him that he would be given a talisman since they thought he was perfect for the role of the Beast from the tale Beauty and the Beast. He didn’t understand why they thought that but he was alright with being a monster part of the time. So long as he was safe, he was fine with whatever they required of him.

    He has a secret. A really big one and he doesn’t even know if it’s real. Sometimes he gets scared for no reason because he feels like someone is watching him. Sometimes he wonders whether his blackouts are really just blackouts. It’s almost like there’s someone following him and protecting (laughing at) him, but that’s just nonsense. Right?


s o m e o t h e r i n f o r m a t i o n


There's something else you ought to know
    Martin knows how to act like a gentleman and a prince, but his personality would not let him be ferocious and beastlike. His background prevented him from ever being able to fight back; he was a weakling. At least, a part of him was weak. This abuse did give him with a psychological problem; he has Dissociative Personality Disorder. The blackouts he suffered were not really fainting spells. He suddenly turned into another person. This personality was the Beast.

    He knew he was just another part of a screwed up kid’s mind, but he still felt as if he were his own person. He was adventurous and enjoyed taking risks. Sometimes he would sneak out at night just to go get into a fight and see who’d win. Whereas his other personality was clean and timid, this one had a filthy mouth and always fought back. The filthy perverts that attempted to touch him got the s**t beat out of them and never came back. The dog that attacked him lost the bottom half of his jaw. Needless to say, that man never came after him again. Now he may beat up guys for fun, but he would never ever hit a girl. Girls were to be treated nicely and he hated seeing them cry. That was how he reverted back to the timid Martin (either a girl had to cry or he would fall asleep/get knocked unconscious). When the academy found Martin, they’d just seen him take on 5 grown men and win. Of course, he lost the adrenaline rush and fell asleep, which reverted him back to timid boy. The Academy found out about his split mind problem quickly and never told him about it. Dark Martin asked them not to; he enjoyed his freedom.

    The school was fun for Dark Martin. When the losers attempted to fight him because he looked so pathetic, they were quickly taught the value of not underestimating the opponent. The personality change was so instantaneous that people figured he was either faking being timid or faking the anger. No one ever asked as they were too afraid he’d throw them across the room (at least all the idiots who tried to fight him). Dark Martin also knew how to read people and if provoked, would take all your insecurities and fears and make them worse. He was the more demented half and would push people just to see what they’d do. While he wouldn’t hit a girl, that doesn’t mean he wouldn’t use their issues against him. He took crap from no one.

    Only two people know of his personality problem: Belissa and Sierra. Belissa needed to know and was told to never tell Martin about it (he might suffer a meltdown if he didn't figure it out for himself) and Sierra found out on accident. Dark Martin got himself into a fight with some baddies and she just happened to be there to witness. She didn’t get frightened of him or his mental instability and that appealed to Dark. Whenever he got the chance, Dark would talk to her (Timid Martin never had a reason to go and talk to the Wicked Queen). The people who asked about their friendship were met with a glare and threat (via Sierra) or a confused [removed](via Martin). It was assumed that the friendship was a badly hidden secret.

Artemis & Apollo's wrath on Niobe's Children

How I Normally Look
    Roxy is really tall. Unusually so for a girl. She is just around six foot tall. While she does like the height, it discourages her from wearing heels very often. Roxy's hair is a nice shade of red, and she is quite proud to say it didn't come from a bottle. Roxy tends to prefer pants to skirts. Skirts can be too frilly and just get in the way. Don't get her wrong. Though she preferrs to dress like a tomboy, she does get in the occasional mood to dress up and look all girlified.

    On her left shoulder is a crescent shaped birthmark. Her limbs look proportional for her size. She doesn't look awkward and lanky. Her muscles are quite toned, due to her hunting practices. It takes strength to pull back a bowstring and keep it there. She does tend to run a lot to keep in shape. Her figure is proof to that work. She's lean.

Fairytale Appearance
    Roxy's hair is pulled up into an intricate knot, bangs secured to one side. Her hair must be out of her eyes and away from her neck. She doesn't wear any make up at all when she's Artemis. Artemis looked like a child, therefore no eyeliner or such for her. She dons an elaborate tunic which is knee length. It is an olive tone, with gold embroidered hems. Good colors for hunting. From time to time, she will wear a traditional ancient greek looking outfit, like a toga. As for shoes, sometimes she goes barefoot. Yeah, it's painful at first, but you tend to get used to it. She has gold tie up sandals that reach half way up her knee, then a pair of brown boots for winter. She doesn't need frostbite now. Roxy also carries a full quiver of arrows and an old longbow that is quite durable. She also has a faithful hound at her side, a Black Mouth Cur.


y o u o u g h t t o k n o w


How I am
    Roxy is a total feminist. Anything a guy can do, she can do better, in her own opionion. So what if she's a girl hunter? She's the best. Don't say otherwise unless you want to get hurt. No, seriously, Roxy doesn't take being offended lightly. There is a reason why her hair is red. She can have a temper, but is usually mild. She always looks out for the other girls out the school whether or not they like it. Personally, she doesn't like guys who want to get into every single girl's pants, nor girls who are sluts. It's against her nature, really. To each their own, but she preferrs not to interact with that sort. Roxy believes in waiting until marriage for that activity, however, she doesn't want to be a prude. It sucks being Artemis because she really likes guys, but most won't give her the time of day due to her title 'The goddess of Chastity.' So not cool. .

How I came to be
    Roxy grew up with a family of hunters. They had their own little world, basically. Her grandparents owned a big ranch in the middle of nowhere, and that's where the family stayed. Her parent's had met off in college, and from there, they got married and had her. The only child for the longest time. Roxy had been taught the basics of hunting when she was really young. The ranch was in the mountains, plenty of wildlife to hunt.

    At the mere age of five, she sacked a twelve point buck all by herself. However, despite her evident natural skills, she was always in competition with her cousin, Greg. He always said that boys were better than girls. Pft.Like Roxy believed that. So, every little thing became a competition. Who could get the most deer in the hunting season. Who could climb higher in a tree, etc. Most of the time she beat him, however, when he beat her, she grew infuriated. She had to be the best. Roxy couldn't let him believe that Males were better than females.

    During middle school, she had joined an Archery club. They did competitions and such. Unfortunately, Greg joined as well. The constant rivalry continued. It sucked that Males and Females competed in different groups. It wasn't very co-ed. Until her eighth grade year. She had openly protested for the past two years that girls should be able to go against guys. That year, they had the seperated contests, plus a co-ed division. The look on Greg's face when she beat him was priceless. She had bragging rights! Nothing could be better.

    Or so she thought. Her mom was pregnant. She would no longer be the only child. She'd be having a little sister. Someone she could train up and be a good role model to. However, just after her sister, Cheyenne, had been born, she had been recruited to Ever After. It boasted of an excellent Archery association and the like. It didn't take long for her parents to convince her to go. Plus Greg's jealousy at her being picked for a special school and not him pleased her even more.

    Roxy was suprised that she was actually supposed to be taking over the role of Artemis: Goddess of the Hunt, among other things. She takes the responsibility very seriously, and she loves it. The only thing she regrets is leaving her baby sister and not watching her grow up.



s o m e o t h e r i n f o r m a t i o n


There's something else you ought to know
    Roxy only lets one person other than her parents have the exclusive right to call her Delia. That person would be her 'brother' Apollo.
    Roxy loves to stargaze and prefers to hunt at night so she can do so. After all, Artemis was also goddess of the moon.
    Being the feminist that she is, she tends to stick up for females who are more soft spoken than she.
    Roxy prefers to hunt with a bow and arrow, for she believes it requires more skill than a gun. Though she can hunt with both. Currently she is practicing with spears.
    She is extremely competitive due to that constant rivalry with her cousin. So, she doesn't tend to ever back down from a challenge. It can be a downfall, but she doesn't scold herself. There's always room for improvement.
    Roxy also secretely despises the fact that the school wants to basically doom her to nunhood. The only person that knows about that is Apollo.
    Also, the dog that accompanies her when she is Artemis is not older than two years. Plus, his name is Sam.

OH! I love both of your profiles, they're perfect! Accepted accepted accepted!!!

I can tottaly see Bridgett picking on both of your characters, the timid boy and the Nun, I love it.

Guys, so i'm trying to make a Lost boy and i want him to be the person everyone goes to for a favor, and he helps everyone not caring if they like the school or not. Basicaly, he doesnt care. Therefore, he has to have a childhood that wasnt bad nor a childhood that was nessairily good that way he isnt dedicated to the school or his home. Suggestions?
PostPosted: Tue Dec 28, 2010 2:36 pm


And I can see Roxy picking on Bridge right back...remember, people don't call her out without consequence...

I tried to give you ideas earlier...hmmm...i can't really think of any more right now...

Maybe he was the middle child in a middle class family. His parents paid enough attention to him, but not too much. He got some things that he wanted, but had to work for others, and maybe he hails from American Suburbia? I don't know. Just brain storming. What if he was a boyscout? That could explain the whole urge to help people.
PostPosted: Tue Dec 28, 2010 2:50 pm


Of course she'd pick right back, it'll be fun. Sadly, for a bit Bridgett won't have much bait to tease her, as you'll see in my next post, she's pulling back from her slutty ways, only for a little bit.


and, OHMYLORD. Thats amazing, except lets change it to a rich faimly, he got everything he wanted but not much attention. That we, he never felt it was home, and when he went to ever after, it wasn't to diffrent, which made him not care here either. Thank you. He's almost developed. I just gotta make a name and a profile.

Hello, My name is
    Ryan Danial Lappet

I Have Been on this Earth for About
    18 Years

I am of the
    Male Gender

I'm staying in dorm number
    7

I'm currently enrolled in grade number
    12


c o l o r m e p r e t t y


How I Normally Look
    Ryan is very pale. He's got this ginger hair that and pink toned skin that gives you the idea that he probably doesn't spend that much time outside considering that he's suppose to be... God of the sun!... And he really doesn't. The kid has to wear more sunblock then prostitutes wear eyeliner. He's tall for a kid too, Six foot three. Unfortunately he's still got that lanky awkward teenage thing going for him. Thin, with very little body fat and even less muscle tone, no one would date him for his body.

    Ryan wears these rectangle shaped glasses with thick black plastic frames. They suit him, but like everything else about the kid are a bit more angular then need be. More often then not the boy is wearing a nerdy T-shirt and jeans. He's got a bunch of threadless Shirts and his jeans aren't really tight or baggy, just jeans. If it's colder out or he's feeling sick, or just in need of a sweater, He might wear a pull over or a tweed jacket. For shoes Ryan wears these cool checkerboard converses.

    With his hazel eyes and long skinny chicken legs, ginger hair, and big toothy smile, Ryan is no one's first thought when they think "Greek God". But he's a good kid, cute enough and very smart. His voice is nasally and young. Just what you would expect when you see him, The guy has no ability to grow any facial hair, in fact he has very little body hair which can be really embarrassing when ever he has to get undressed in front of anyone else.

Fairytale Appearance
    Ryan really slathers on the sunblock when ever he has to get into costume, mostly because it means he has to go outside and that doesn't happen to often other wise. As Apollo, Ryan wears the traditional cream colored toga with a nice golden winding pattern stitched into the hem. It's shorter then your average toga reached just above the knee. And he also wears these lace up light brown leather sandals. In his hair he has a very thin golden laurel that wraps around the back of his head. He wears contacts too, so that the sun will not blind him. Usually he caries a bow and arrow, but on a good day he gets to use his lyre. Ryan is not that talented at the bow, he's above average, pretty good, but not nearly to His sister's standards... He would rather to mess around with the Lyre.


y o u o u g h t t o k n o w


How I am
    Painfully awkward but to sweet to be annoying, Ryan really does try to please the people around him. He's just such a giant nerd though. The guy practically breaths obscure historical facts. He's oddly talkative for how weird he is. The guy would rather talk his way into a hole then just let a situation spiral into a silent awkward tunnel of awkward. He plays the guitar, also the keyboard, and a few other more odd instruments and thinks of himself as a leading geek musician. He uploads a lot of fun stuff to you tube.

    If angered or upset Ryan turns a brilliant pink color and gets quiet. It's odd because that's the only time he really can't find anything to say. Believe me, the guy can talk. If he gets nervous he talks faster and tries to explain himself, unfortunately this usually just leads to him getting more nervous. As for his romantic side... Ryan isn't what people would call... "straight". He's not Gay. But he's also not straight, He's in the middle some where, not flamboyant, not holy, He's just... Quarky. When he does find someone he likes though, He's very sweet. Ryan likes to go for the whole, Gentleman thing even if he's not very good at being strong or tough. He would write a song for the person and maybe make them something, spend time with them, that whole thing.

How I came to be
    Born and raised in Chicago, Ryan was never one to like the great outdoors. He spend his childhood inside, or in his father's lecture hall. That's right, Lecture hall. No his father didn't own one, but he was a professor and he always used a lecture hall for his class. Ryan's dad taught computer technology in one of the most elite colleges in the US. He was a great man, and an even better father. The kid learned almost everything he knows, at least his love of learning, from his dad. He got his first guitar when he was six and started playing there and then. His dad taught him that too.

    Ryan's mother on the other hand was never around much, she was a political writer... She wrote speeches for politicians. The woman was nice when she was around, but she traveled a lot, going between DC and their apartment in Chicago more often then was healthy. She spent most of her time in DC. Ryan missed his mother but as he grew up he learned to live without her, she took him with her to DC a few times, he met some of the politicians he had admired, shook hands with Hilary Clinton one... His mother wrote for her a couple of times. But DC just wasn't for him. Ryan liked the vibe in Chicago better.

    When he was fourteen, about to go into high school, he got a letter, inviting him to go to boarding school. Always one to better his own education, Ryan wanted to go more then anything else, he begged his father to let him and the very next month The kid was on the buss to Ever After Academy... When he found out what that meant he took it hard. Never being able to go to college... Never able to see his dad again...Never able to live his own life... It hurt. But he bucked up pretty soon when the school told him that he could take as many classes as he liked after he took the recommended courses for his character. Being the God of the Sun he should know everything there is to know about everything right? That's how he explained it anyway.

    Ryan takes exhilarated classes, so instead the the normal two semesters per class, he takes them in one and then takes twice as many as the normal student. As long as he keeps up the school has no problem with it. The only issue is his Archery. He's not as good as they want, but he's slowly getting there. Slowly. Ryan would rather read a book then strain his non-existent arm muscles any day.


s o m e o t h e r i n f o r m a t i o n


There's something else you ought to know
    Ryan is often intimidated way to easily, he doesn't rise to the challenge of anything if it's about strength or masculinity. He's not very masculine of a guy.
    Ryan has a birthmark that looks like a sun in between his shoulder blades on his back. This is very noticeable due to his lack of body hair.
    Ryan has trouble action natural around all girls... except for Artemis, his 'sister'. She always seems to be able to talk to him and not make him into a complete spaz.
    Ryan has a deep love of all things Doctor Who.
