  Plot

  
  Long ago multiple gods and goddesses came together to create a safe space for their offspring and descendants. A place where they could learn of their heritage without the fear of being discovered hanging over their heads, a place where they were free to be themselves. And so Mythos Academy was born. Mythos Academy was placed within an island in the Bermuda Triangle. The school is located in the middle of a mountain forest, with a variety of natural features like woodlands, meadows, streams, lakes, and beaches. Mythos is over 30,000 acres with 20 classroom facilities and 20 residence halls, not to mention the buildings dedicated to things like swimming, eating, and other non academic activities.
  
  The Island is also home to the town of Fortis, which is home to many of the staff of Mythos. The town is filled with and run by mythical creatures of many backgrounds. And over the years has become more modern. It’s a popular place for those who wish to leave the school in order to shop or simply relax.
  
  The only way to reach or leave the island is via ghost shop, ran by a undead pirate crew and complete with a kraken companion. There are secret ports around the world for students to gather. These ports can only be found by the those who have been shown the map by a god.

  Demigods/Legacies

  
  Demigods
  Demigods, or half-bloods, are a race of beings who are half-mortal, half-god. They possess mortal souls and are vulnerable to old age and death though longer than average human lifespans; however, their godly blood endows them with special abilites that allow them to achieve feats usually not possible by humans. Upon reaching the island Demigods will be recognized and place within a dorm with other like them. For example a child of Zeus would share a dorm with a child of Thor.
  
  Legacies
  Legacies are called as such due to being a mortal grandchild or further descendant of a particular deity, for example having three mortal grandparents and one godly grandparent. Legacies only count the god they are decedent off as an ancestor rather than that deity's parents or grandparents, for example, a legacy of Ares/Mars is not considered a legacy of Zeus/Jupiter. Legacies are shown to sometimes have the abilities of their divine ancestor, the descendants of descendants of Periclymenus having the ability to shapeshift. Not every legacy has the abilities of their divine ancestor. This is due to divine powers diluting more and more after every generation of reproducing with mortals, however, if a legacy’s parents are powerful enough demigods, then the legacy’s abilities will likely be on par with their half-blood parents. Many legacies know of their heritage.
  
  While it’s not talked about their is definitely a classism between the demigods and the legacies, seeing as legacies are more human and their divine blood is diluted.

  Dorms/Club

  
  Silva
  Home to the students associated with beings of nature, fertility, and elements. Silva is a beautiful building surrounded by plants both supernatural and not.
  
  Mortem
  Students associated with beings of death, the underworld, and darkness, are placed here. Labeled at the creepiest of the dorms, Mortem is a gothic style building and always seems to have a draft within. It’s rumored that the building is haunted
  
  Cognitionis
  For those associated with knowledge and learning, Cognitionis has the biggest library out of all the dorms and is known for hosting strict study sessions amongst the students.
  
  Artem
  Those associated with the arts call Artem home, from poem to music and theatre. Definitely the more rowdy of the dorms. Artem is known for the wild parties that are thrown inside.
  
  Legatum
  This dorm is home to legacy students, also tauntingly called Infirmi and Hominum.
