The Zodiac

In ancient Greece, the signs of the Greek zodiac were identified with twelve groups of stars (constellations) which we can see in the night sky at different times during the year. They were also associated with one of the four elements – Earth, Air, Fire and Water – and behind each one of them lies a fascinating story. As a matter of fact, the word itself, “zodiac”, comes from a Greek word meaning “the circle of animals” – “animals” referring to all living creatures. And indeed, with the exception of Libra, each one of the myths is associated with living beings, either animals or humans.

These signs somehow got divided due to what seemed like trivial disagreements. 4 factions got established because of this: Fire, Earth, Air and Water. (No this is not Avatar.) These four became the best companies in the world. Fire had Buzz Entertainment where the signs Aries, Leo and Sagittarius worked at. Buzz Entertainment “produced” celebrities. Then there is Earth who had Angelico which focused on game productions where the signs Taurus, Virgo and Capricorn worked. The next one is Air who established Global Inc. They focused on hotels and cruises, here worked the signs Gemini, Libra and Aquarius. Last but not least, Water had Foodworks which focuses on restaurants where the signs Cancer, Scorpio and Pisces worked. Giving even more rivalry between the signs.

We would focus on the latest members of the signs (between 16 and 25 years old). Some knew what they wanted; some were still exploring on what they truly wanted to do.

Fact: Their powers start appearing at the age of 16.






Aries: (March 21 – April 19) Aries love to be number one, so it’s no surprise that these audacious rams are the first sign of the zodiac. Bold and ambitious, Aries dive headfirst into even the most challenging situations (which is appropriate, since the body part associated with Aries is the head). Like their fellow fire signs, Leo and Sagittarius, Aries is a passionate, motivated and confident leader who builds community with their cheerful disposition and relentless determination. Uncomplicated and direct in their approach, they often get frustrated by exhaustive details and unnecessary nuances. They like things quick and dirty, a temperament also reflected in their sexual proclivities. Aries lead with blind optimism, barreling through life with an electric joie de vivre that perfectly complements their distinctive impulsivity. These rams adhere to an “every person for themselves” philosophy. While this self-determination can be inspiring, Aries need to watch out for selfish tendencies. When these brazen rams are not flying off the handles, they’re upbeat, positive and playful creatures who enjoy living life to its fullest.

Ability: Power Replication – The power to replicate the powers of others.

Taurus: (April 20 – May 20) Taurus is an earth sign represented by the bull. Like their celestial spirit animal, Taureans enjoy relaxing in serene, bucolic environments, surrounded by soft sounds, soothing aromas and succulent flavors. Pleasure is a necessity for epicurean Taureans, and they feel most content when pampered. Taureans aren’t afraid to roll up their sleeves and work hard to earn big rewards. These earth signs are ambitious, focused and resilient and they feel most secure when steadily putting money into a savings account. Security is paramount for Taureans and any threat to their stability will be sure to have a celestial bull seeing red. They prioritize consistency and reliability in all areas of their lives. What a Taurus perceives as dedication is often regarded by others as stubbornness. Accordingly, these bulls may end up lingering in unhealthy situations – whether relationships, jobs or homes – longer than necessary just to prove a point. Despite their occasional obstinance, however, Taureans are dependable partners, soothing their friends and lovers through their trustworthiness and devotion.

Ability: Diamond Mimicry – The power to transform into or have a physical body made up of diamond.

Gemini: (May 21 – June 20) Have you ever been so busy that you wished you could clone yourself just to get everything done? That’s the Gemini experience in a nutshell. Because of Geminis’ intrinsic duality, they’re often falsely misrepresented as two-faced. In reality, however, Gemini rarely have hidden agendas. Playful and intellectually curious, Gemini are constantly juggling a variety of passions, hobbies, careers and friend groups. They are the social butterflies of the zodiac: These quick-witted twins can talk to anyone about anything. Find them buzzing between happy hours, dinner parties and dance floors. Gemini are accordingly excellent at guiding change and transformation. A fearless thinker, Gemini is always down to try something new. These hyperactive air signs have short attention spans and are most satisfied when they can move fluidly from one idea to the next. They are natural chameleons who can quickly recover from even the most shameful foot-in-mouth moments.

Ability: Shapeshifting – The power to transform or reshape one’s body.

Cancer: (June 21 – July 22) Cancer is a cardinal water sign. These crabs are highly sensitive to their environments, as well as extremely self-protective. Much like their celestial spirit animal, Cancers are shielded by hard, external shells. At first, these crabs may be perceived as cold or distant. With time, Cancers reveal their gentle nature, genuine compassion and mystical capabilities. Just don’t be surprised if it takes a while to get to know them. Cancers tend to be domestically oriented. They love to create cozy, safe spaces that serve as their personal sanctuaries, then spend lots of time in them. Cancers care deeply about their families and are quick to adopt caregiver roles. When Cancers invest in someone emotionally, they risk blurring the line between attentive nurturing and controlling behavior. Cancers attract friends and lovers through their loyalty, commitment and emotional depth. It may be difficult to convince a Cancer to talk openly about what’s bothering them, but if you can do it without making them feel threatened, you’ll build long-lasting trust.

Ability: Enhanced Senses – The power to possess extremely accurate senses.

Leo: (July 23 – August 22) Vivacious, theatrical and passionate, Leos love to bask in the spotlight and celebrate themselves. These lions are natural leaders and they enjoy cultivating friendships and romances that are artistically and creatively inspired. The sun never goes retrograde and likewise, Leos are renowned for their stability, loyalty and consistency. They are dedicated friends and lovers who put their heart into every relationship. They can become impaired by their ego, pride and jealousy when they start to fear their star power will be eclipsed. Leo is represented by the “strength” card, which depicts the divine expression of physical, mental and emotional fortitude. Fearless optimists who refuse to accept failure, Leos will find their deep wells of courage grow as they mature.

Ability: Enhanced Strength – The power to possess strength beyond that of a normal member of the human race.

Virgo: (August 23 – September 22) Virgos are logical, practical and systematic in their approach to life. This earth sign is a perfectionist at heart and isn’t afraid to improve skills through diligent and consistent practice. They’re hyper-aware of every detail. A Virgo deals with information like a computer, transforming even the most jumbled set of information into organized, clear concepts. Virgos want to help. They are kind, gentle and supportive friends and lovers who use their incredible intellect and resourcefulness to problem-solve. These earth signs are always striving to provide workable solutions and improve broken systems.

Ability: Technology Manipulation – The ability to manipulate technology.

Libra: (September 23 – October 22) Libra is obsessed with symmetry and strives to create equilibrium in all areas of life. These air signs are the aesthetes of the zodiac. Libras adore high art, intellectualism and connoisseurship. Suave Libras need to surround themselves with stunning objects and creative environments that reflect their exquisite tastes. Relationships are paramount for Libras, who find balance in companionship. They love harmonious partnerships with fashionable mates, especially those who make attractive arm candy. Since they try to keep everyone happy and engaged, they may find themselves tempted to push the limits of their agreements with their partners. Libras are great at launching new initiatives. Because Libras consider multiple perspectives in all pursuits, however, these air signs struggle with indecision. That characteristic ambivalence aside, Libras can navigate virtually any social situation, effortlessly resolving conflicts by simply turning on the charm.

Ability: Telekinesis – The power to manipulate objects with one’s mind.

Scorpio: (October 23 – November 21) Scorpios are a water sign that derives their strength from the psychic, emotional realm. Scorpios are extremely clairvoyant and intuitive. What makes this water sign unique is its distinctive venomous sting. Life is a game of chess for these calculating water signs, who are constantly plotting several steps ahead in order to orchestrate an eventual checkmate. This doesn’t mean their intentions are necessarily nefarious. Scorpios simply know what they want and aren’t afraid to work hard and play the long game to get it. They never show their cards and their enigmatic nature is what makes them so seductive and beguiling. On a good day, Scorpionic energy is ambitious and enticing. On a bad day, however, the shadowy side of Scorpio is fueled by a relentless desire for control. This sign is at its best when its intrinsic intensity is applied to deep, soulful connections with friends and lovers. When they build trust with others, Scorpios demonstrate unparalleled empathy, depth and commitment which brighten even the darkest parts of Scorpio’s magical psyche.

Ability: Empathic Creation – The power to create objects, weapons and creatures out of emotions.

Sagittarius: (November 22 – December 21) The last fire sign of the zodiac. Fueled by wanderlust, these archers can be found traversing all corners of the world on thrill-seeking expeditions. With so many journeys under their belt, Sagittarians are excellent storytellers and can light up any room with their exhilarating tales and infectious laughter. Effortlessly magnetic, Sags easily attract friends and lovers with their senses of humor. They’re the comedians of the zodiac and infuse all of their conversations with wit and “no bullshit” bluntness. Sagittarians are born to explore and it’s critical that these archers have the freedom to roam. These adventurous lovers resent any boundaries, so constant motion is essential in any Sag relationship.

Ability: Flight – The power to fly without any outside influence.

Capricorn: (December 22 – January 19) The last earth sign of the zodiac. Capricorns are skilled at navigating both the material and emotional realms. Capricorns tap into their inner fortitude to overcome whatever stands between them and their long-term goals and they don’t let anything distract them from getting ahead. Because of their unwavering focus, they are often perceived as cold and unemotional. Having already endured hardships, Capricorns become increasingly youthful, optimistic and playful as they mature. Indeed, inside every earnest Capricorn is a mischievous troublemaker. Though this earth sign may seem a bit conservative and restrained at first, Capricorn’s closest friends and lovers know that these sea goats love to party. Capricorns are excellent at taking action and launching initiatives.

Ability: Teleportation – The ability to move instantaneously from one location to another without physically occupying the space in between.

Aquarius: (January 20 – February 18) Aquarius is the last air sign of the zodiac. These revolutionary thinkers fervently support “power to the people”, aspiring to change the world through radical social progress. These air signs despise authority and anything that represents conventionality. Free-spirited and eccentric, they can often be identified by their offbeat fashion sensibilities, unusual hobbies and nonconformist attitude. Aquarius have a distinctive attitude, complementing the nontraditional nature of these visionary air signs. Aquarian obstinacy stems from strong, righteous conviction and it’s quelled as soon as an Aquarius gets the chance to enact change. They enjoy teamwork and participating in communities of like-minded individuals. However, Aquarians also need plenty of space and time on their own to reflect, form ideas and plan their role in the revolution. To win an Aquarian’s trust, don’t try to reign in their quirks or keep them from flying their freak flag high – Aquarius thrives on shock value.

Ability: Power Randomization – The ability to have any random power at any time.

Pisces: (February 19 – March 20) Pisces, a water sign, is the last constellation of the zodiac. These fish are the most psychic, empathetic and compassionate creatures of the astrological wheel. With such immense sensitivity, Pisces can easily become swallowed by emotions and must remember to stay grounded in the material realm. These ethereal fish adore exploring their boundless imaginations. These impressionable fish prefer wearing rose-colored glasses to addressing problems, which can earn Pisces a reputation for being flaky or delusional. Kind and gentle, they’re invigorated by shared experiences of music and romance. Any relationship with mystical Pisces is guaranteed to involve deep spiritual exploration.

Ability: Clairvoyance – The power to gain direct visual information through non-physical means.

Interesting concept. Not sure where you will go with this or what you are looking for, but you have my interest so far^^
 
Well, it would be a rivalry between the companies, they want to be better than the other and so fort. But the newest generation might think differently which will high likely lead to conflict. The same would be if for example a gemini falls for a Scorpio which is a tabboo. You can go lots of ways with this but there will be plot twisting events coming up as well.

Clouds Clouds I more meant posting wise. Do you want (multi) para responses, how active do you want the roleplay to be (posting wise). How will characters be interacting? What brings them together?
 
DarkiusHeavenstein DarkiusHeavenstein Ooooh, I forgot to put that in there. >-< Would be a minimum of 2 paragraphs per post. It's not going to be rapid-fire posting, but more relaxed, would prefer 3 posts per week minimum from everyone. And the characters will know each other since there will be family reunions for all signs (yes, there will be a lot of people) so there are enough opportunities to talk to each other. They are also going to be in the same city which helps a lot.
 
Thank you for the quick answers. I don't think I will be able to make 3 posts a week, so I will leave my interest, but most likely won't be able to join^^ Still it is nice idea!
 
I'm not skilled enough for this roleplay, but is ophiuchus considered a zodiac sign?
