It’s 2012, and all Hell has broken lose.

Literally.

All the Gods are real. All of them. Greek, Egyptian, Norse, Celtic. They all exist, and they all need your help.
Just as all of the Gods are real, all the demons, devils and monsters from the different mythologies are real as well. And they’ve all realized that the world is much easier to take over if they work together, and that’s exactly what they’ve done.

The Gods can’t handle this by themselves, and mostly they’re just lazy. So each deity has chosen ONE mortal that they’ve deemed worthy, and gifted them with a minor version of their powers. These special mortals must work together to fight back the demons and lock them back in the underworld. But with the Gods of death against them, it won’t be easy.

You’ve been chosen by one of the Gods, and they tell you to head to the Parthenon in Greece, where you will meet the other gifted mortals. You have a direct mental bond with your patron God, and they’ll usually help you if you ask for it… Usually.

Please don’t make your power TOO powerful. And yes, you can be a God of death or the underworld, (Like Hades or Osiris.) But only if you don’t mind being a bad guy. And you can have multiple characters, as long as you keep up with them. And remember! It’s the apocalypse! Demons are everywhere, but they usually stay well hidden, or disguise themselves as humans. Churches and Temples are safe havens.

Bio: To be filled in later
Other: Hunter’s estranged cousin

Character Sheet:
Name: Hunter Blackwell
Age: 19
Gender: Male
Patron God: Flidais
Godly Power: Shape shifting and animal manipulation
Appearance: Tall and very muscular (like thin waist, defined abs, huge pecs and biceps sort of thing) with black soft black hair that frames his face in waves. Dark leaf-green eyes.

Name: Raven Alexandria
Age: 16
Gender: female
Patron god: Hermes
Godly power: Very fast.
Appearances: Long,mid back length blond hair, with light brown highlights. Her skin is pale, with icy blue eyes. Being very slender, with a hourglass curve. Standing at a height of 6’2 she towers over most. Her tongue is pierced, along with her ears, of course. She normally wears a black shirt with different colored under shirts with long sleeves that reach mid arm, or wrists. Along with skinny jeans and black yoga pants, with different colored short skirts, or short shorts over them. Along with knee high socks she wears over her pants, and converse. She always sports a beanie hat over her blond hair.she is rather attractive, a bit deceiving for her mischievous inside.
Attitude: Appears sweet, tries to act innocent, but can be found pick pocketing from strangers. She is kind hearted, but can be a bit rude, demanding, and selfish at times. But for the most part, she tries to play innocent, though, who is she really fooling?Every time she gets out of trouble, she finds new mischief to get caught in.
Bio: She doesn’t know her real parents, living in a foster home till she was 8 before being sent off to a school for girls. She would sneak away so often for a good thrill, always being dragged back, but not without a fight. She was always good at thievery, stealing her phone back from the teachers, getting notes from people, getting money on a casual walk through the halls. Even for her height, she could quickly slip into small places, getting where she needed to be, when she needed to be. One night, Hermes comes and visits you, you think it’s all a dream. Till you start seeing your power showing up the next few days. You realize this was no joke, or dream when he appears once more, right before you in your dorm as you head out for class. you understand these terms, being rather witty, yet making such terrible decisions. You brake out of the school again, getting away, heading off to find Parthenon.
Other: She is a great thief, being able to pick pockets, along with locks with ease. She was already fast, but her powers made her unbelievable now.

“This place is lame.” Shawn whined. Dragging his feet up the steps, “Yeah. Pyramids are better.” Ryc shrugged throwing a cigarette butt over his shoulder.

Jarred yawned and adjusted the base ball bat tied to the handles on an old bike. He pedaled up to the foot of the Parthenon, and took that bat with him up the steps.

Kassie stumbled into the building, sort of buzzing. She dropped an empty bottle of Jack Daniels on the floor and belched.

Hunter picked his way through the trees, sliding under logs and getting his clothes dirty. His hair was a mess and his jeans were dusty with mud on the knees and cuffs. An annoyed female voice spoke in his head. “Hunter, darling, really. I know you’re wild, but please at least TRy to keep yourself presentable. Those are designer jeans I bought you! At least try to keep them from destruction?”

“This would be much easier if you stayed out of it.” Hunter mumbled.

“But really, dear, what’s the fun in that?” The voice replied.

Hunter sighed, making his way to the pantheon.

Cameron was waiting outside when everyone else started arriving.

Rosalie sat on the living side of the River Styx, peering into the water. She was beginning to fear that she was the only mortal who’s be working for the demons. Her eyes darted around as she drummed her fingers along on the ground, tiny flowers growing where her fingers hit.

Allister and Ainsley walked into the Parthenon, eyes darting around. They were wary of everyone, as Artemis and Apollo told them to not trust anyone so easily.

Caleb stumbled into the Parthenon with a yawn noting everyone around him.

Chloe walked up the steps warily, thinking something was going to jump at her. She was told by Skadi to come for reasons unknown to her just to come here. She walked into the ancient building watching everything around her.
