The year is 430 B.C, in the ancient world of Greece and Rome. Between unruly monsters, epic journeys, and all powerful gods it's frankly hard to live if you're normal, constantly tossed about as pawns or as food. You begin as a mere mortal in this world, but you still believe if you ask and pray, great things will come to you. So, one night, visiting the temple of the patron god or goddess of your choice, your prayers are answered in the form of a glorious choice: become a demi-god in their honor for the values and virtues of your patron mother or father. What stories are told in your honor or despite are up to you.
Choose a patron god or goddess.
No doubling up. First come, first served on patrons.
No god-moding. You're not a full god, you're only part.
Your patron will come to you in times of dire need, and if you're really lucky, you may get a gift. I will be the patrons.
All Greco-Roman gods are accepted. Anyone from Pan to Zeus.
I am open to ideas and willing to compromise.
EDIT:
So far, the list of patrons is Cretus, Hades, Athena, Artemis, Hecate, Roma, and Moros. I will not be accepting any further gods or goddesses unless you impress me with a really original idea and character who can blow me out of the water. Please PM me for this.
I have been asked on a plot. A very basic free-form plot is the picking-sides plot, such as monsters governed by an evil master are causing harm and you must choose to join them or fight them. There will be different monsters and trials here and there, and a lot of it is what you want to do and where you think you need to go and see. You wana change the world? Go ahead. You just wana get one thing and go home? Neat. It's more of a free plot with some nudging from yours truly.
