<Snipped quote by The One>

No he had it right chronos god of time and father of the titans who the big three rose up against but if you read this
greek-gods.org/titans/cronus.php

You'll see tha he was eventually released so and made king of the islands of the blessed and ruled over the souls of departed heros. depending on where in the time line we are he could have a kid. Who am I kidding he the god of time the very fact he was released at all means he could travel through time and have a kid at any point in time lol.

@PharaohAtem

The Isle of the Bless is the high end neighborhood section of Elysium. It's still part of the underworld which belies the ability to make a living human child as there's a lack of living human women in that area.

Though that is one of the less used versions of the myth in the context of Zeus being the least bit merciful. Given that we've sort of set Zeus up as incredibly selfish and more than willing to go to war with his fellow gods mercy doesn't seem to really be his strong suit. But let's say that we did go that route and Kronos was allowed out of the underworld. Why isn't he the one spearheading the fight against Zeus. The world was his until Zeus stole it from him. Why would he be cool with letting Zeus keep it? And if we assume he is both free and fighting against Zeus why hasn't divine battle already broke out rather than simple the rising of tensions as a prelude to battle that has been established so far? Basically if Kronos is free all logic dictates that we should be in the middle of the last Percy Jackson book rather than attending school.

That site is very contradictory to most sites that list Kronos as just the Titan of the Harvest. Chronos the Father of Time is a primordial like Gaia.

@Weird Tales

The version of Greek mythology that lists Chronos as a primordial is very very old, old enough that it predates the modern Greek pantheon, more accurately so old that the Greek pantheon that exists in support of Chronos being a primordial looks nothing like the one established in the RP. Examples, the original primordials were Chronos, Zeus and Chthonie existing as personifications of eternal principles. Chronos created Aether, Chaos, and an egg that hatched into Phanes who then created the first generation of Olympians.

Only the earliest representations of Father Time have him as a primordial. With the evolution of the modern Greek pantheon Chronos was merged with the early concept of Kronos which created the modern version of the King of the Titans. Look up illustrations of Father Time, he's holding Kronos' scythe.

@Prince of Seraphs I would have to look it up but I believe that's Kronos, you know, God of War games? Not Chronos, God of Time.

@The One

Same Titan. The various translations and evolution of the language has resulted in several different spellings of the name. Kronos, Cronus, Chronos, Chronus and more. Zeus father was the Titan of Time. After the titan wars the earliest myths say he was cut apart by his eldest three sons and cast into Tartarus, later ones once that became to disgusting for storytelling he was simply imprisoned and in a handful of the more obscure and pleasant ones he was made lord of the underworld paradise Elysium but in all accounts he was not allowed to return from the underworld.

Although I may make a daughter of Chronos, aka Father Time.

@The One

I more or less get that some of the other titans are still kicking around since only specific ones were actually imprisoned after the war with the gods but wasn't Kronos chopped into tiny bits with his own scythe and his remains caste into the deepest depths of Tartarus? That doesn't seem like the most accessible position to be sleeping with humans. Same way there shouldn't be any demititans sired by Atlas since he's busy holding up the sky.

Lillian - Courtyard

Lily laughed at the turquoise haired girl's reaction. Lily's laugh, much like her singing voice was full, sweet and haunting enough to raise the hairs on the back of most people's heads. Still she'd never batted an eye at those in her old life that had called her a freak or whispered about her having an eating disorder just loud enough to make sure she heard it. In her new life Lily didn't take any notice of those that found her odd or offputting. They were afterall the offspring of the gods, strange was just another day to them.

As Lily had expected from her observations the girl had a short temper. Which she made no effort to hide as she started cursing at the illusion Lily had created before her. As she'd expected the dead, even the gristled half decomposed dead did nothing to faze the girl with the mohawk. She was most definitely the daughter of an underworld god, possibly even Hades himself. Though the Lord of the Underworld was much less promiscuous than his eldest brother and often condemned Zeus for his constant fraternization with mortal women Hades himself had a fair number of demigods of his own walking the earth. Though he was at least a little more selective than Zeus.

Deciding it would be best to dispel her undead illusion before one of the other new students pointed out to the girl with the mohawk that their was nothing there she leaped from the wall. Angling downward as she fell to the ground Lily landed on her outstretch hands and propelling herself forward into a flip landed in a crouch facing the girl with the mohawk and the shadowy girl. She then swiftly reached out a hand and touched her illusionary doctor which then seemed to crumble into bones that sunk into the earth leaving nothing behind.

"Actually," Lily said with some measure of cordiality. "I was going for amusing with a side of sassy but I can take a run at scary if that interests you." she said this with a smile, poking the first years was usually a fair amount of fun.

@Prince of Seraphs I would make a second character if I thought I could handle it. While I don't want to be at the heart of the action. But I would like to be involved and don't feel like I am really.

@KatherinWinter

If you're determined to feel left out there's not really much I or anyone else can do about it. All I can say is that your character is interesting, your post length is perfectly fine and your as involved as any singular character can be. Whatever you choose to do after that is your own perogative.

Olympus: School Of Demigods!

@Prince of Seraphsi am not even looking at the multiple characters posts. There are plenty of individual posts that are longer then 3 paragraphs. Then there's all of stuff is happening that my character isn't involved in. It's a frustrating to wan t to be in an RP and not be able to participate.

[@KatherineWinter]

I only individual post a I've found that are longer than three paragraphs apart from my own are the ones where two characters are being controlled under the same header such as those Zeus twins or the Apollo kids. Otherwise three has been the max and some are as small as a sentence or two.

@The One I see alot more than that in the 11 posts since my post. But we'll see.

@KatherinWinter

As far as the events of the story there have been a half dozen conversations, one kid flung a bunch of spells and everyone reacted to the flinging of spells. No one other single character is more involved than Zelma is right now and given she's got two people she directly interacting with some are quite a bit less involved. A single character literally isn't capable of being more involved than Zelma is at present so if you feel your not doing enough make more characters. Rather than worrying about all the things your character isn't involved in focus on those that are interacting with them. You cannot always be at the heart of the action nor do I think anyone would want be. The small stuff is just as important as the huge events.

@Blackmist16 Give him the power of light. Light is generated and radiates brightly from every star. So he can bend it to become invisible or even form objects and constructs of light, like a sword or angel wings on his back to fly with etc. I highly suggest that you unlock the construct of light during the RP. Makes you have some character progression.

In the start, besides invisibility you can also reflect an image somewhere else. Say, you are in the woods with your friends, you reflect that image some meters away as a decoy or whatnot. Maybe even replicate your original body to 10 more light illusions. Be creative!

@Bishop

I suddenly feel someone was watching the Superman the animated series episode Solar Power with Luminus as the villain.

Olympus: School Of Demigods!

I'n not sure what to do anymore...I'll try to figure something out I just thought he would summon star like objects that wouldn't be harmful...

@Blackmist16

You could make it so he manipulates the heat and lights aspect of stars.

Olympus: School Of Demigods!

@Prince of Seraphsfirst most of the post are way longer then I am capable of. I can do two maybe three paragraphs a post if I have a good partner. Second look at all the action that's happened since my post. There's almost no point in me responding.

@KatherinWinter

Look closer at everyone else's posts. No one else is doing much more than that. The other posts look bigger than they are because everyone is playing multiply characters. If you examine the single character pieces of each post none are more than three paragraphs and most are significantly less.

I happen to like writing and go into a significant amount of unnessesary detail but I don't expect anyone else to do as much and strictly speaking it's not really nessesary as my posts have a fair amount of fluff in them.

As far as action goes you don't have to respond to everything that's happened just the stuff that immediately effects Zelma. By my estimation that's her piercings phasing through her earlobes and the illusionary undead that's appeared before her. Everything else is suplimental.

Olympus: School Of Demigods!

mm... May have to seriously reconsider my interest in this.

@KatherinWinter

Why? What's wrong?
