Looking for someone to rp this with. Also have some idea of what to do for the rp: -Hades/Persephone-centric, mainly expanding on the story, and it will be from both Hades and Persephone's perspectives. However, there can be other characters. - I have no issues with smut or scenes with Adult content. If included they will be in PMs. The RP itself will also be in PMs unless a lot of people are interested. Admittedly I started this because back in the old site I was doing something similar with the User Jonqil Legend but lost track of her after the move and I'd like to pick it up again. If anyone's interested please post here. ^^ Character Sheet:
Name: Type: Age: Gender: Appearance: a)Hair b)Eyes c)body d)Clothes Occupation: Personality: Backstory: ^There's the Character sheet. Admittedly I'm not sure who I'll be rping as (in the RP with Jonqil I was the Hades) but iit will likely be Persephone. Right now mostly curious about characters other people will play.

Well, it sounds interesting to me at least. The Greek mythos have always been a rich source of story material and are quite adept at re-interpretation as well...
I possibly question the idea of smut or adult content on this forum however.

Pretty cool, but I guess smut would just have to be suggestive, or sort of cut-off. I mean, it could get borderline into the sex scene but I doubt we can go.
"RAM THY PENIS INTO THY QUIVERING CAVES OF WETNESS AND MOISTURES!"

Yeah, no smut. It'll get the forum yanked down for going against the ToS.
Have fun you crazy kids.

Smut would be restricted to PMs actually but I understand. Also the "Ram thy penis" line made me gigglefit

Either way, it seems like 1-2 people are on-board, why not release a character sheet, mmyesyes? Also, Alasator, or... someone, accept mah Farndis characters.

You treat me so fine, Light.
I mean, when we spoon, I can feel your erection pressing into the crevice of my buttcheeks, but you don't go any further. I appreciate that, you're a real nice manlady.
Character Sheet:
Name: Phryk Legio Angelius
Type: Mortal, Human. Age: 27-28.
Gender: Male, eunuch.
Appearance: Tall, broad frame, close-cropped, short black shaven head, with aqua eyes.
He wears gladiator's plated sandals, breeches, a tunic covered in leather and chainmail, and carries a shield, sword and a helmet, which is blue and yellow, crested with a black mane.
Occupation: Legionnaire, Phrike devotee.
Personality: Phryx is perverted, funny, humorous, although suffers, due to his devotion, from paranoia, fear, anxiety and claustrophobia.
Backstory: Born in Greece, he was raised as a farm boy, until mandatory conscription allowed his family to feed more and receive a better income and protection.
As the oldest, he set a standard. In-fact, he set a very high standard.
He was apart of the 7th and 8th Legions, and was one of Greece's best soldiers, up and until the fateful event when he turned to the god Phrike, whom he was named after by his mother, whom was also a devotee.
He took to his cause, spreading paranoia and anxiety, his military fields of power, much to his own chagrin, as he hated himself for every act he commited. However, some were for the greater good, some weren't. Killing rapists, or torturing an accoutant.
Phrike wasn't a bad God, in all retrospect. It was just Phryx carrying out what he thought was his will in bad ways and good ways, helping and destroying.

Sounds like an interesting character. Who's Phrike, though? *doesn't know this god*

Greek God of Horror. ;/ Her name means like fear, trembling, shivering.
And is the equivalent of the Latin word Horror, so...
I like creepy characters.

Character Sheet: Name: Persephone (Alias Kore) Type: Olympian (Goddess) Age: Appears late teens to early twenties Gender: Female Appearance: a)Hair- Down to her waist, it is the color of fire, starting yellow-gold at the crown and darkening to crimson at the bottom; straight. Usually styled in a braided bun or ponytail. b)Eyes- Peridot-green c)body- Slim, curvy (though it's below deck that they're more prominent); somewhat tanned skin from spending most of her time outside. She also has a beauty mark beneath her left eye. d)Clothes- Chitons, normally white or pastel colors with a dark himation as contrast. Because she spends a lot of time outside any jewelry she wears is simple in design and minimal in amount. Occupation: Goddess of Spring and Rebirth Personality: Speaks her mind, Determined to be her own goddess (read: wants to develop canon regarding herself that's not neccesarily associated with Demeter) as well as lead her life. Backstory: Raised for most of her life in Nysa, Persephone yearns for the chance to be independent. While she does love her mother and knows all Demeter does is out of love, she wants to break free of that cage and lead her own life. Unfortunately, she still lacks a clear goal that would enable her to acquire these things. ((^Just realized this image may make the statement about her not wearing much jewelry look like a liar. Derp.)) ((Might add another character but I'm not sure yet. Definitely Leaning towards Nymphs if I do, though))

((Well, if nobody else is going to play this role...))
Character Sheet:
Name: Hades Type: Olympian God Age: Old enough to be weathered and weary, beyond a doubt adult without appearing old. Probably mid thirties. Gender: Male
Appearance: As with any god, it's variable. a)Hair- Blackest of night, long and straight down to the small of his back, prefers to wear it free, and at times animate it. Also wears full facial, though trimmed neatly so not as audacious as his brothers. b)Eyes- Steel bluegrey. c)body- Slim, athletic and muscular, but hardly the power house appearance of his brothers(Zeus and Poisedeon). His skin is bone white, making his hair more of a framing devise(like his robes) than a part of him. Needless to say, he doesn't get out much. d)Clothes- Dark robes with a gold trim, sandals, he tends to keep his attire simple instead of gaudy.
Occupation: God of the Underworld and Death
Personality: A sensitive romantic, but unfortunately with a strong sense of duty and purpose. He often prefers a business like level headed approach, as opposed to Zeus's more passionate responses, which makes him seem as the cold and aloof member of the pantheon who sulks through most of their wild parties.
Backstory: Brother of Zeus who aided his generation in the battle against their titan father. When the assignments were being handed out, he accepted the unenvyable role punishing mortal souls who have passed beyond the world of the living. From his perspective he felt that this, above all else, was the most likely way to hurt mortals, and thus he accepted the role out of a heartfelt kindness towards the little playthings. In the afterlife you get what you deserved, expect no malice in your punishments, but neither any mercy.
((I'm kinda rushed in putting this up, and may not be heavily participating, but considering how some of the OTHER games are going, 'heavy participation' may simply be a relative term, and one I can easily handle.))

Made me moist, Jw.
Not gonna' lie, I got very, very moist in the underside of my penis.
Character Sheet:
Name: Taintius Labulicus
Type: Human, mortal.
Age: 57-58.
Gender: Female.
Appearance: Tall, large-breasted woman, whom has sunken curves and her beauty fading, she still holds a candle to some of the youth, but... she was better. Best damn street whore in Greece, you heard!
Wears breeches, with a tightened belt, with sandals, but wears a smooth, linen robe with iron plate over it. She wears a hooded cloak to compliment her black, short hair. She has a slave branding on her left-wrist, and signs of Freedom Given on her other arm.
Occupation: Former street whore, slave, servant, now 'tends' to wounded soldiers and lonely soldiers.
Personality: Strong willed, and due to her career 'paths' she has a perverse, funny and sexual sense of nature, burned into her from age. She sees the light in a dark situation, and is hard to demoralize.
Backstory: Taken from a Pict tribe, she was thrown into sexual slavery by her over-bearing owner from the age of five. Her story pretty much goes on like that as her age only made her look thrive.
That was until she was twenty seven, and took to making herself purposely ugly. Shaving her head, not bathing for months on end, defecating and pissing as she stood. It was all she could do really, past all the beatings.
She was given up to a Legate, whom treated her only one shade more than nice. She was fed, bathed and cleaned, and treated to the luxeries one could expect for a slave, but without the common livings such as filth and disease.
Oddly enough, the one thing she strived to stopped doing, she tended to soldiers. Both on a medical level and on a sexual level, going where the camps went, and more so where her legate went.
Now, freed by the decree of the now dead Legate, she operates as a healer to the very Legions Phryx was a part of, and in a very Joker esque Harley situation, grew to treat him with revery. He was something special, something off and disturbing, and yet one could only admire the acts he did. For this, she goes with him, for with him she finds an equal.

Name: Sappho Type: Nymph (Oceanid) Age: Unknown, appears young and vibrant Gender: Female Appearance: a)Hair- Differing hues of teal and turquoise, starting dark at the crown and lightening at the bottom with the edges of her hair appearing to be the white of sea foam. As if to reflect her nature, her hair is also wavy and at times appears fluid; reaches mid-back.
b)Eyes- Brown-red, the reddish tint appearing similar to red coral. c)body- Quite curvy, though a bit on the short side. Tends to get a bit of sunburn if out under the sun too long and as a result, takes great care of her skin.
d)Clothes- Like most mortal women she wears the clothes they do, though in color schemes they are always dyed to reflect the hues of the sea. At times when touched these garments do not feel like cloth at all.
Occupation: None currently, though occasionally she will work as either a singer or dancer in Poseidon's palace. When in the cities, sometimes she offers to tell stories in the square either of her travels or mythology.
Personality: Playful, flirty, and a tendency to be fickle due to being an Oceanid. In addition, she doesn't like staying in one place for long.
Backstory: A wanderer of the world's waters (primarily the river Ocean), Sappho is primarily concerned with traveling the world via the ocean and takes great care not to call attention to herself for fear of attracting the attention of a god. As expected of a salt-water nymph, she spends most of her time in the ocean, her form there varying from marine creatures, a woman with a fish tail or just a woman with a body of water.
((If that's all the character let me know so I can start the thread))

Hope it's not too late to jump in...
Name: Pythia Type: Mortal Age: Thirty-six Gender: Female
Appearance: a)Hair- Black and curly, falling to her waist. Left down for ceremonies and the giving of Oracular statements, otherwise braided. b)Eyes- Deep brown, often with a far-off appearance. c)body- Curvy and once very beautiful, but hollowed by age and the violent fits to which the Pythia is subjected. Frail. d)Clothes- White tunic falling to her feet, and sandals.
Occupation: Oracle of Apollo
Personality: The Pythia has seen precious little of the world outside Delphpi, and has for the past several years not left the temple there at all, save to bathe in the Castalian spring in preparation for giving prophecies. Though her only face-to-face communication with the gods happens while she is prophesying, she has a deep connection with them at all times and often gets lost in her own thoughts, paying little to no attention to the physical world.
Backstory: Born and raised in one of the wealthier families of Delphi, the Pythia knew from a young age that she would dedicate her life to Apollo. When she came of age, she entered the guild of priestesses at the temple, where she has lived ever since. At twenty-five she was selected to take the role of Pythia after the last oracle died. She has been happy and well cared for, but the physical strain of giving prophecies has begun to show.
Name: Apollonia Type: Mortal Age: Eighteen Gender: Female
Appearance: a)Hair- Stick-straight and black, falling just past her shoulders. b)Eyes- Green and almond-shaped, with a look of innocence about them. c)body- Tall and thin, with long legs. Moves gracefully. d)Clothes- White tunic falling to her feet, and sandals.
Occupation: Priestess of Apollo
Personality: Generally content with life; finds wonder easily, even in things she's seen a million times before. Friendly and bubbly, madly in love with her fiancee, whose character sheet I will put up if he ever becomes important.
Backstory: Apolloia's parens named her after the god Apollo for a reason. Another Delphi resident, Apollonia grew up among the city's poorer families. Her parents determined to make her a priestess as a way of bettering her position. She enjoys life as a priestess of Apollo, but isn't incredibly passionate about it. She does, however, greatly admire the Pythia, taking every opportunity to talk to and learn from her. She is engaged to a childhood friend, whom she loves dearly. (According to Wikipedia, it was okay for priestesses at Delphi to get married.)

^Actually Anya I was thinking at some point Persephone visits the Oracle for some advice. But perhaps because she's actually a goddess the Oracle's vision of her future is difficult to discern.

Post by Anya the Purple on Jul 18, 2012 19:13:04 GMT -8
^Ooh, that could be fun.
I was also thinking that maybe the Oracle finds out when Persephone is kidnapped (Wikipedia says Apollo tends to leave to the north during the same time period that Persephone is in the underworld, and the Oracle isn't allowed to prophecies during that time, so maybe we could tie that in somehow) and then a bunch of mortals have to go on a quest to save her. Or something like that.

That could be used as a Hilarity Ensues opportunity, considering that I was thinking what originally happened that Persephone decided to do this on her own (the kidnapping was a gross exaggeration) but given how people aren't fond of Hades, well....XD

If I recall my Greek geneology, Apollo's brother(?) Helios, god of the sun, witnessed Hades abduction of Persephone(as Hades 'kidnapped' her away on a bright sunny day). So that's how everyone(most notably Persephones mother) found out who did it.
Pirithous, king of the Lapiths, and Theseus, the king and hero of Athens are two mortals that attempted to rescue Persephone. They didn't exactly succeed however, and Hercules had to rescue one of them when he came to capture Cerberus as his last of the Twelve Tasks.
Plus, yeah... I'm not sure we want Jacob and Edward... I mean Pirithous and Theseus... in this. They were trying to 'rescue' Persephone so they could have wives for themselves. They'd already kidnapped Helen of Troy(who at the time was "underage"... in a time when 14 was marriage age exactly how young would "underage" have to be?), with Persephone as second best daughter of Zeus for the other of them(I think they flipped a coin for who would 'win' Helen, and who would settle for Persephone) to marry. Hades was not happy when he caught them, oh, not happy at all(and Persephone was not recaptured by them). 'Hilarity' ensued.

^Actually Helios wasn't so much Apollo's brother (if that were the case, there'd be triplets not twins) as the original personification of the sun. Helios had been one of the good Titans; he WAS the sun. Considering that this rp is a retelling of the myth (mainly because I feel we should know Persephone's side of things) some parts would be subject to change. Regarding Helios, we could say he had intentions of his own regarding Persephone and for whatever those intentions are, lied to make himself look better (which then results in the myth we know now).
As for Pirithous and Theseus, that seems to happen some time after Persephone becomes Hades' wife so it won't be included in the rp's plot. However maybe she encounters one or the other at some point as a nod to that story.
