    Shadows of Olympus: Chapter Three OOC


    Welcome to Chapter Three! Whether you are a returning player or a new one I hope you have a lot of fun with this RP. As per usual for my RP's I have a loose overarching plot line in mind, I like to keep things flexible so that I can customize to what my players throw at me. If you want to see something in the RP, let me know. I want to give you what you want. Generally the only reason I would say no is if conflicted with the plot I have lined up or it doesn't fit the "feel" of the RP. Remember, this is your RP too! Take advantage of that, run things by me.

    I also expect to hear from you 2-3 times a week IC, ideally more often than that. If you have something come up and can't post just let me know in the OOC and we'll figure somehting out. I also like to see a busy OOC, it speaks of a lively RP and helps us to get to know one another and thus become more invested in the RP, so talk and chatter all you want! We have been known to have Bad Art contests as well as good art depicting our favorite Myths and such. We also have a dedicated Chat Channel thanks to Lyzan who plays Ares.

    Rules and Such
    • I am not a stickler for post length so don't feel you have to post a ton just to bump your word count. I'd rather a shorter, well written post than a wall of fluff though I do expect your post to meet site standards for Advanced which can be found here: Advanced Roleplay and are not as daunting as one would think.
    • Do not Tie up the IC, if you cannot post let us know and we'll work something out.
    • No Loner Characters. They are a huge pet peeve of mine, especially when accompanied by OOC whining about having nothing to do. The fun of these characters are that as much as they hate each other, they cannot stay apart.
    • Be especially conscious of not moving too far a head of the main plot. I keep track of this and if you go and have your character take a nap (for example) you aren't going to be able to react to the raging Maenads that run rampant in the park around the corner even if it looks fun. This has come up in a few of my RP's so I thought I'd point it out here.
    • If you are in a scene with another character, on that isn't connected to the others, with lots of back and forth dialog, take it to PM in what we affectionately call a collab. Then after you have RPed out the scene in PM the conversation or scene can be posted as a whole by one of the players. This makes for nice banter and keeps from losing the feel of the conversation when it gets broken up by other people posting. Be mindful if you do this that you don't tie up a player for too long. The collab post should be wrapped up quickly, say within a day or so, key word here is Timely.
    • Flashbacks are a beloved tool for this RP and I do love them, but they should not be the meat of the post. Forward movement should be evident in every post.
    • I promise you, I am not as strict as all this makes me, this is just experience speaking.



    Character Sheets:

    Olympic Gods only!
    Also, because this is a returning cast all returning players will have a say about new CS's though I will make the final call if needed.

    I am not a huge fan of character sheets per-se, but it is nice to have a spot to find pertinent details about the characters you are RPing with and I’ll add a link to each of them here so you don’t have to scroll through the OOC when you need to find one later on.

    So what I want is:
    Name

    Appearance (description for certain, photo in addition if you must, no Anime),

    Current occupation/location/persona

    Vignette I’d also like a little vignette for your character, a quick write up 3-4+ paragraphs long wherein you get across a little of whom your god is today and what they are like. Try to give a feeling of how you are going to play them but don’t feel like you have to get it all across or are committed. Characters change and evolve; I just want a starting point, a scene such as you would write it in the RP, giving me a starting point for them. Look below at the established Gods (Zeus and Hera so far) for examples of what you should be doing

    As for powers, I am happy to leave this vague as long as everyone keeps the spirit of the game in mind and RP's accordingly we won't need to define them. I trust no one will be uber-powered and unstoppable.

    Reserving this for my characters and first to soil the OOC(Hope you don't mind Lillian)... It might take me a bit, especially with Ty since I have to tie up a few other posts in other rps first but hope to have one up by Sunday. I hope...

    Editted: Done and I think I got carried away again...Lol.


    ~~~

    Name: Tyche, prefers Ty.

    Previous Alias: Ty Cheryl Elemis

    Appearance


    Hair white blonde that shifts to dark faded tips now, in thick tight banana curls in a medium cut to the bottom of her ears with a side flip of straighten bangs. They rest just above the left eyebrow, thin wisps of light color. Her face is youthful looking as if she was younger then she really is, her rose skin has a pale looked as if never really seen the sun for a month. Though her flesh is still smooth and flawless as before, the light freckles seemed to have darkened on her rounded cheek bones and now reach to the ends of her eyes. Tyche no longer wears make-up becoming more tomboy and preferring to be all natural.

    One of the few notable changes is her body is slightly thinner than last seen, as if she barely eaten much, though that is slowly changing. She has her father’s green eyes, full of wick mischief and gentleness, and her mother’s face that curves into a heart shaped keeping her appearing as naďve as ever. Eyes even so seemed to lack that lucky luster and there’s slight grey ring around each of them. Her thin mouth has deep wrinkling lines from recent smiles as she is returning back to the goddess she was once, at least on the outside. Though it was never seen before, her two ears are pierced with a more recent one on the top of her right decorated with a rounded four leaf clover stud usually covered by her hair.

    Currently, she wears tight t-shirts with loose jean to hide the fact she lost weight. Tennis shoes cover her average but elfin looking feet, light and graceful Tyche seemed lucky enough not have that sense of weakness affect her balance or ability to stand now. Though her style has edge more recent into light puck rocker, it only speaks world of the person she is becoming and the point she’s hitting what most immortals would consider her teenage years. An emerald green choker, thin inch thick line of small tiny cylinder beads and single outline of black outline the three rows encircle her neck. Unknown to everyone, save two- one she never intended to know, that she carries a small dagger saved from the last battle for personal reasons in the back of her pants waist band.

    Occupation/Location:

    None currently and resident of Hades.

    Vignette/background


    After the incident in the hotel, she couldn’t determine when as hours turned into days then longer, Tyche was found by a maid in the wreck of the room passed out from lack of food and care. More damage had been done since then and in her luck, it seemed the man was more concerned about avoiding a death then making her pay for the room calling the ambulance to pick her up. Rushed to the hospital she slowly recovered and before any authorities could arrest her, Tyche vanished from the sick bed into the streets. Once more her nature took over to run away from her problems instead of facing them leaving both the hotel manager and state to foot the bill.

    Her motorcycle was impounded, the worth only managed to pay the emergency and transportation debt leaving the young man high and dry. Lost and alone, Ty let the anger swallow her whole in the surrounding violence as she traveled on foot play hitch hiker for the next week to anyone willing to pick her up. She doesn’t like to think about it but during that time something changed. The last week of the first month, Tyche gambled using her unstable domain to acquire a set amount of money and returned to Nashville. It was a day before the young hotel manager returned, beaten and defeat as he expected to lose his business only to discover an envelope with an old fashion coin beside it with the handwritten words of sorry for the trouble. Within it was more than that needed to fit the room, pay the repairs off and pay off the hotel stay leaving the man stunned silent.

    It was the last loose end she needed to tie up here, though she pretends to be alright Ty struggled to keep her temper in check sometimes. Often ready to flirt with danger, Ty no longer cares what happens to her life. Playing more of a game of Russian roulette then anything with each bluff, not cared if she ‘wins’ or ‘loses’. More and more it’s hard to keep her heart light and cheerful making the choice to disappear easier. There was only one way to do that, to vanish from her parent’s reach without a trace, and that meant one place. It also meant she would have to leave the world of the living.

    The second month was literal hell. Taking a few days of the month’s beginning she found an entrance into Hades where the conflict begin and she found her luck still strong as ever, Persephone allowed Tyche to remain for the second month. Still there to this day, though she rolls her eyes watching Ares roam like a house pet trapped too long inside. Though he still scares her, Tyche is determined to make sure her Aunt is never heartbroken again while aiding in the clean-up of Hades. So far, Ty thinks she been able to hide the fact she is breaking down inside even now but it’s hard to tell when snips of her rage ruptures to the surface. She’s lucky Persephone respects her personal space or the Queen of the Underworld would be horrified at the state of the guest room after Tyche vanished into it for hours on end, the room holding the screams and bangs of her rage. Or the fact she wanders the halls at night, careful to avoid Ares’s path.
    ________
    Tyche stared at the statue, a memory of couple months ago. The twisted form of Echidna and her child cradled in her lap, a mother, an enemy and a monster. Her stomach growled but she paid it no mind, refusing to give into the need for food as feeling the lack of desire to eat. It was a fleeting custom that was either there one minute and quickly gone the next, though she saw the worry in her Aunt’s eyes and was then Tyche forced herself to eat. Other than that, it wasn’t her concern at least it felt that way.

    Cold sweat was still dripping down her flesh, it felt like the dead rivers that Charon rode on were tracing her skin and wetting her clothes with a chill she couldn’t be rid of. This was the fifth night she woke up from a dead sleep, shivering and screaming. Claws, tentacles, teeth, and more were always reaching for her as she was huddled helpless all the while watching Artemis’s form come unraveled like some pathetic, cheap tapestry in the hands of the fate. Why wasn’t she there? Why? WHY! Her fist had balled while it slammed into the stone of the statue, leaving hard jolts of pain that traveled up her arms and made her flinch. She use to it by now as the state of her room told much more to the state of her wellness then her attitude outside, the feeling of numbness being swallowed by her anger all the while feeling trapped inside herself.

    It hadn’t gotten better. Not like she hoped it would, feeling this way all the time while pretending to be alright. The look on Seph’s face was enough to tell her that her body suffered more then it should have. She hid the cuts and bruises, best she could, yet it wasn’t hard. The queen of the underworld, like the rest of them, was too busy dealing with her ‘War Lord’ to notice them at least it seemed to Tyche. Her dad didn’t care so why should she expect her Aunt to? What was happening to her cause ever since the battle she felt different, like something changed though she couldn’t place the source of it. The reason either. Like a nagging feeling, her moods became more chaotic then the darkness which surrounded Hades as the goddess of Luck struggle to coop alone. In truth it feel like her efforts were lacking. That scared her most but it was better then feeling nothing at all, being a empty shell without emotion staring off into a wall.

    Some days she wanted to crawl off and sit a corner feeling sorry for herself, like a selfish teen she mused, while others she just wanted to beat the shit out of a wall. Tyche hoped it would pass, it seemed to come and go, but that seemed to a far way off. The coming came in greater force she just believed she would pop one day and everything would just be fine, her pain, suffering and anger would just be dead at the end of her existence. She want to say life as this was not one, not a life at all. At least one she wanted. Then again when did anything the dysfunctional goddess of Luck get what she needed or wanted, if that true she would beside her father and mother, her Aunt wouldn’t be tied to the hip to Ares, and Nemesis wouldn’t be avoiding her like some disease she was disgusted with.

    -------
    Name: Nemesis

    Previous Alias: Abby Jordan, previous Abigail Nathaniel

    Appearance:


    Her complexion has changed from the dark mocha color to a pearly white complexion, skin beautiful and flawless now as her power grows but remains little different. Her eyes are still ever shifting, artfully and barely, shades of amber red color though in recent days they seemed much more distant. A sharp cheek bones and narrow jawline give her an air of seriousness. Broken by a grin from her lips, the bottom much fuller then thin top, that it seems to be in its most genuine around Jeremiah it can turn into a dangerous sense with a flip of a mental switch. Her hair is straight trailing down to the neck line, often pulled back into a braid for convenience, when untie and her short bangs parted to the side reaching to full length blending with the rest of the strands.

    No longer attached to the goddess of luck, Nemesis has not only cut all ties but no longer harbors a branded tattoo replaced by a graceful set of wings. Black as night, like her mother Nyx, they hook under the shoulder blades to wrap about her torso down to her feet when pressed against her body. The one wing, gripped and crushed by Typhon doesn’t fold as flawless as it once did though nothing truly is wrong with it, seems some memories are embedded in the muscle cannot always fade away making it slightly slow then other. In recent days she been able to shrink the size but not completely vanish them though doing this more than once a day makes her pale and drains, though the worship gained by her involvement in New York has lessen it greatly.

    Her body is much more defined in muscle due the physical demands of her job, reflexes just as quick since she thrives for perfection. Being on the P.I. career track, Nemesis outfit has lapsed from conservative business suit of pencil skirts, white iron shirts and dress jackets to more average street clothes. Tanks tops for hot climates or partial-fitting shirts that button up with stiff collar for colder weather and tight curving jeans to show off her shape, finally with black ankle boots. With being November, a dark tan hand down woman’s trench coat has become part of her outfit to chase away the cold.

    Occupation/Location:

    Bounty hunter and in some small city downtown, USA.

    Vignette/Background

    Previous personal aid to the chief staff of National Defense, her involvement in the New York incident had dire consequences. She gave up her job, entrusted Artemis as current guardian for a recently summon Griffon named Fowl and was homeless with very little to look forward to. Her wings nearly up to their former glory, Nemesis casts a intimidating figure as her serious demeanor has changed very little say for it soften towards her current partner. Use to traveling she moves to the jobs instead of being the errand/desk jockey she was once, preferred that Jeremiah take up that role but it seems to fall on deaf ears at times. They currently have an office set up in a small business area of a small downtown city thanks to her partner. She insisted on taking on a new name to once more resume her life in the modern world in vain hopes to leave behind the baggage of Abigail Nathanial. Both for her sanity and to bar recent events of Typhon’s fall.

    When not on jobs or helping Jeremiah filing papers in the office, she sometimes become distant. Pulling away to reflect on the last month’s events from Typhon’s fall at her own hands, the fates destruction of their tie as well as the reason, and her emotions to Jeremiah that she didn’t completely understand. Most of all why she feels incomplete. The numbness seems to have faded, though in truth Nemesis merely buried and ignored it, too occupied with improving on skills she lacked to become a better bounty hunter. It became an distraction of late, between the reflections and Jeremiah, she learned a few things she never expected.

    Never once had she contacted any of the immortals. Refusing to allow them into her life, a chance to destroy it once more or change it. Demeter’s words were taken to heart even if it was bit twisted and previous events in Hades, now Nemesis strove to find a place of her own, independent of the other gods only to find it more like smoke eluding her. It just wasn’t what it was supposed to be. It would take a few months to make the office official as it been only a few weeks in getting it finally, the last job been a final push to put them over budget, and all the papers signed to make theirs.
    _________
    The world seemed to go by in a flash, Nemesis stood on concrete build ledge overlooking the scene below. Car moved like toys far below her, their headlight streamed into the night as the chilly wind breezed into her. Her black wings were unfurled and ready to take off, excitement and adrenaline was rushing though her soul like a high despite how many times Nemesis had do this task. A sword was holstered to her side thanks to the sheath kept from the battle though Typhon’s words spurred her flesh and head: “You are nothing more than a dull tool in their hands.”

    Not this time…

    Her body flew off the building, spotting the quarry beneath as the slender man ducked into the alley way. It was a dead end as she smiled, knowing unless he was comic book spider man that he would be trapped within making her job that much easier. Her wings were silent, taking off like a phantom off the side while she glided into the entrance. Already her mind was sharp to the details of her surroundings, noting the environment as she approached a man standing just out of her reach several feet to gaze upon a tall brick wall. Her black heels clicked on the damp pavement while her hand reached out to touch a side wall, a dark smirk traced her features that she finally found him. A rat, one she been after for a while, now stood before her unable to flee any farther.

    He was done running. His figure hunched and out of breath beside the dingy dark green dumpster, sided by black bags of trash, her wings curled against her body before her voice rang out in venomous tone. She been chasing him for over a month now, a rapist and murder, he killed many in his escape to this place leaving behind a not so ignorable trail of bread crumbles in his wake. It leads from the quaint home of Nebraska to the current city she was in.

    Every victim demanded retribution, revenge for his thief of their lives, ringing in her core that her eyes took on a deeper amber red making Nemesis seem like a hunger predator and damn right scary,” Dead end… ready to give up or do I run you into the ground now?”

    It held a bit of humor and cocky, yet it was natural for Nemesis was in her element feeling more accomplished and whole then the centuries past. Her prey was trapped and he knew, his fist already rose though she knew his instincts screamed he already lost. His mind just hadn’t realized it yet, so the hard way was now not that she regretted it. Secretly she pushed him into this in a way it wouldn’t seem like it, baiting him by letting he get away repeatedly only to grow tire of it now and eager to stop it. it was like a game of cat and mouse, or in her case hawk and mouse, that she found it sharpened her skills to the extremes especially when she allowed them to fight back. They were always left battered and bruised, their own fault for resisting before being carted off to jail. Deep inside she felt Jeremiah disapproved though she tried to overlook it, the idea itself cut her heart to the spirit of it that she wished she was nothing more then ice.

    A couple of points, I want a description of your character as he is now, not just a picture. What we are looking for is how you write about him and to see if it will fit in with how we play this RP. The same goes for the Bio, I don't want one really. He's a god, he's lived forever there is no way to get that into a bio. What I wanted was a vignette, a little scene from his perspective that tells us who he is now. A slice of his life. He is one of the gods who got no play in chapter 2 and miniscule play in chapter one so you have a clean slate. But we want to see who he is. If you go to the Interest Check and look under returning cast members you will see what I am looking for. Remember we are looking to see if the direction you take him works. He is more than just the god of wine, he's twice born, formerly mortal, the god of Madness as well as joy. He's part of this crazy, soap-operatic immortal family and we want to see how he fits.

    Okay, so I will tell you about his appearance. Is there anything specific I should add/change to the bio?

    The whole thing. I thought I covered that in the bit I wrote. I didn't want a Bio, I wanted a scene.

    I'm interested but is there any spots still open for my raggedy ass? Also, what's the scoop on some of the minor gods? Like Morpheus, Thanatos, Aeolus? In any case, most of you know me and my activity on the guild. >.>

    Lol, I was literally just thinking about at tasteful way of recruiting you for this. You saved me from the effort. Generally speaking I want the Olympians taken first then if you want a secondary character we discuss the minor gods. As for who among the Olympians is open, we have Poseidon, Dionysus, Hephaestus, Hestia and Aphrodite.

    I'll refrain from squeeing for now but Yay!

    The one that closely matches my personality would be Dionysus but then I would be stepping on Marrow's toes, which isn't my game. Hephaestus or Poseidon might work as well. I'll need to make up a couple of mock sheets until I have a good feeling on which direction on want to go in, I wish I was here earlier for Dionysus. I would love to be the son of Zeus and a big ol' man-whore. :P

    Theseus.

    Name: Theseus

    Appearance: Theseus could now be mistaken for your average working class citizen. He is of average height and build, with short, dark brown hair that falls a bit in to his eyes. A scruffy goatee can be seen growing at the end of his chin. He can be considered a handsome young man who is up to date with the latest clothing fashion.

    Occupation: Accountant, New York City.

    Theseus sat behind the same desk he had sat behind for the last nine months. His blue tie loosened at the neck and the top button of his shirt undone as to give him a more relaxed demeanour. But Theseus couldn’t be any more relaxed. He was bored. Bored of staring at the same computer screen, reading stupid graphs and spreadsheets. As the rest of his colleagues tended to their computers, phones and other electrical devices, Theseus swung restlessly in his chair, balancing a pencil at the end of his finger. He thought of his past occupations and how he would easily go back to doing them rather than this tedious line of work. There was the mail man job in Florida, which Theseus enjoyed, apart from the numerous amounts of dogs he had to make toothless so he could deliver the mail to their owners houses. There was the waiter job at a coffee shop in Detroit. And even being a pacifier for a group of hyper active children in San Francisco. Now, he finds himself in a nine to five job working as an accountant in an office in New York. Theseus had to move from place to place and jump from job to job due to one good reason. He never ages. He never ages for he is not mortal. No, Theseus is an Olympian.

    Theseus did whatever he could to keep occupied for the next hour or so. He re-acted the story of Icaris, who created wings from feathers and wax but flew too close to sun destroying his wings and leaving Icarus to fall to his death. He did this by crafting Icarus out of a sheet of paper and using his desk lamp to resemble the sun. He even summoned a water-silhouette of Poseidon from his glass of water. This made him think of Olympus and the times when all gods were at their mightiest. Worshipped and loved by mortals, which allowed them to live apart from this world. Theseus was once the mythical king of Athens and remembered for slaying a Minotaur. Now he is just an average nobody. Just somebody who goes to work, comes home, plays computer games, then goes back to work. Oh how he wishes the good times would return.
