EARTHBOUND.
&&PLOT.
The time of the gods has long since passed, and their power is waning. Despite this, they and many other immortalized Greek figures have been clinging to their life force. Now, they are in danger of fading away completely.

In order to preserve them, and possibly for their own protection, the Fates have sent the most famous of Greek mythological figures to Earth. There, they will live out their days at a university with normal mortals. While they all remember their previous lives, they have also been granted new memories and new lives, so as to fully immerse themselves in the mortal lifestyle.

As a result, these newly mortal Greek figures only have vague memories of their previous stints as gods or heroes or Titans. What remains of their previous lives are two powers relating to their former realms of influence, both of which they are unable to fully control.

&&EXPLANATION.
Hello, and how do you do? I'm back again with another Greek-myths based roleplay. This one is mostly influenced by over-excitement about another university-based roleplay that is picking up soon, and some characters of mine wanted to come out to play, so... here we are.

This will mostly be slice-of-life and completely relaxed, plot wise. There will be some events, methinks, and I may decide to throw in a plot twist here and there, but otherwise, I don't really expect this to reach farther than that. So. There you have it.

The character limit here will be 6 CHARACTERS, more so for my benefit than everyone else's. Face claims will be realistic, and I will expect that the powers your characters will have will NOT be over-powered.

To clarify, our characters will have a VAGUE idea of having been gods or heroes or what have you. However, they will mostly remember the lives the Fates have given them. In a way, consider it as reincarnation of a sort.

So there we have it.

I expect this to be slow-paced, so if you get easily impatient... sorry! Life happens all the time, and I'm graduating high school in a month, so I don't exactly have the capacity to be invested in this at all times. Please respect that.

RESPECT FELLOW PLAYERS Everyone's opinions are valid; please respect that. Let's not insult OR criticize OR indirectly antagonize anyone. Let's be fair to all.
TELL ME IF YOU HAVE A PROBLEM If you and another player have a problem, please tell me. Or take care of it yourself... but please tell me first.
FOLLOW RPN RULES Duh.
I AM THE GM Try to usurp me, I'll whup your ass. Currently open to co-GMs.
ROMANCE IS OKAY Make sure both parties are okay with it, though. Also, please don't get overly gushy and ew. Nobody needs that.
THIS WILL BE DETAILED Meaning, I'll expect two to three nice paragraphs minimum. NO ONE-LINERS. Please be able to grammar. I want to be able to read what you're writing.
TELL ME ABOUT ABSENCES Please tell me whenever something's going on. If you disappear off the face of the Earth, I WILL let others take your role. And probably pretend your character never existed.
NOT FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE I will be expecting detail in the CSs, and I will most likely ask for a writing sample. So be warned that you may not be accepted.

interested !! is it alright if i claim calypso and asclepius? i see everyone else claiming so i'm not sure if it's limited to friends or?
 
So far, the idea I have for Prometheus is basically Joker from Persona 5. A quiet, highly intelligent rebel with a tendency to be a bit theatrical. While he can be pretty self serving, he ultimately does what he does for his brother, Epimetheus, and for the downtrodden. I also have an idea that he actually knew about that the God's and Titans were going to die long before it actually happened, and he tried everything he could to help both they, and humanity, before they died. Or maybe he even tried and failed to stop it? Who knows?

Just remember that he'd only have a vague idea of his life before, so the memory of trying to stop whatever happened would probably be gone. ^^"

Also I don't understand Persona 5....
 
I get it! I just think it makes a lot of sense for Prometheus to have at least had an idea that something was coming, seeing as his power was foresight. Speaking of that, I'm thinking that his foresight would be much less powerful. He would have vague visions of things that may or may not happen, depending on causality and all that stuff. It's not pure onipotence.
 
So interested!

Would love to take on Aphrodite and Hecate if possible to do two.
