I would like to be Aphrodite!
She is the Greek goddess of love, beauty, and sexuality. In the myth, she was born from the seafoam when Cronus threw a part of Uranus into the sea. Because of her beauty, Zeus married her to Hephaestus. Her other lover is Ares, and she had many children with him, Dionysus, and even mortals. Doves and swans are symbolic to Aphrodite
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Aphrodite walked into Olympus, giggling as she did so. She flashed a radiant smile to those around her and she felt all eyes on her.
But then again, who didn't have eyes on her?
She walked to her husband Hephaestus, gave him a quick kiss on the cheek, but she showed no other emotion. As she took a seat in her seat of power, she snapped and a mirror appeared.
"So, what's new?" She asked all the other gods, not really paying attention because she was checking her hair, trying to get it more voluptuous. As usual then, she launched into her daily update of all the cute mortals she found. "So... I met this really uber cute one. His name is Zach and I really, really like him." She glanced at Hephaestus, who was giving her the look again.
"What?' She asked him. "You know me. I'm not Hera over there. I don't hold sacred to marriage."
She flashed a smile at Hera. "No, offense dearie, but let's face it. I'm not you. I actually like to go out and mingle."
She snapped again and her array of outfits appeared before her. "Anyways, as I was saying," she continued, rolling her eyes, "I think I'm gonna go visit Zach again. I'm thinking I should probably crash he and his girlfriend's special night... let's see if my powers over love can, ah, change anything."
She smiled slyly, the scene already playing out before her. "Well, I'm gonna go out fora little fun, maybe go to the clubs a bit. Dionysus? Would you care to join me? You can come if you want."
She waved her outfits away and twirled, changing into a deep purple minidress. "Perfect!" She squealed. "I'll get back when I get back... Dionysus?" She looked expectantly at him. "I'll see you in about hour, 'kay? She blew a kiss at him and flounced out of Olympus.

I would like to be Artemis.
She is the daughter of Leto and Zues and sister of Apollo. She is the goddess of the wilderness, the hunt, wild animals, and fertility. Artemis and Apollo together brought upon sudden death and disease (She targeted females, and he targeted males). Artemis was commonly known to carry a bow and arrow. The deer was a sacred symbol to her. Loyal nymphs follow her. Because Aphrodite has no power over her, she has remained a virgin by choice.

Grr, she's the goddess of the moon, wilderness, the hunt, and chastity/virginity. She's also the goddess believed to protect the woman in childbirth. She can't be the goddess of fertility because she's a virgin. Dionysus is the god of wine, ecstasy/celebration, and fertility. rok-music-girl I would like to be Artemis.

She is the goddess of fertility when it comes to child birth.

I care because this is a guild about demigods and gods, so it makes sense to know about them.
And fertility and childbirth are two different things.

^_^ Oh, look at that. You also know how to retaliate. For that I commend you. But I was just saying. Human fertility and childbirth are two different things. And you realize that Wikipedia isn't an official website to get information even though it has the .org at the end, right?

It's called being resourceful. You read what's off Wikipedia, and click on/check the sources and references. It's the easiest way to verify Wikipedia information. I am resourceful, that way I don't waste time trying to find a website when I can use Wikipedia for all other sources. I use Wikipedia intelligently and have no shame in saying that I use it for references.

Hello! I would like to play Hestia.
Hestia, daughter of Kronos and Rhea, is the virgin goddess of the hearth and of the right ordering of domesticity and the family. She received the first offering at every sacrifice in the household. She is not technically an Olympian, since she gave up her seat to Dionysus, but tends the hearth on Mount Olympus. Being a child of Kronos, she was swallowed as her siblings were, and relased by Zeus.
Hestia sat by her hearth on Mount Olympus, watching the other gods bicker. Her child form sighing, she looked into her fire. Why must they fight oh so much, and over the stupidest of things. Mortals, demigods, monsters, the gods themselves, it was just silly, but every time she expressed this opinion, they began bickering about her. Standing up and stretching, Hestia walked back to the entrance, and appeared at the hearth at Camp, though no one approaches her. No one has in a long time.
