• Rulesxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

        1. I'm in charge and I expect you to treat myself and each other with the same respect that I intend to give you.

        1. Follow Gaia ToS. I don't mind so much with language, as long as it fits your character, but with romance, don't take it past make-out, and don't take it to PMs. I would rather you just skip.

        2. Literacy is wonderful. This is far from advanced lit, but definitely not semi-lit, either. I would like at least a paragraph per post - that's about 5-7 sentences. Two paragraphs would be nice. Also, please also check for spelling/grammar/punctuation. You don't have to be perfect, but put in some effort.

        3. As a personal request, I ask that you write in third person, past tense.

        4. Title all profiles "ZEUS!" And include the "gonk" emoticon, please ♥

        5. I don't care how you separate OoC comments, as long as it's clear that they are OoC.

        6. Please try to be active. I'm not asking you to post every day, just three or four times a week. If you are going away for a period of time, just drop me a PM.

        7. If you are having any sort of problem with another roleplayer, please PM me. I will do my best to sort it out. Also, highlight rule number four.

        8. Please read through the front page before submitting a profile.

        9. Pay attention to the first page - I will be posting any announcements in the first post, and keeping track of the RP date and time in another.

        10. If you have questions of any sort, feel free to PM me. I may make changes to the rules every so often but I will announce it in the first post.

• Plotxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

        "... Wh-Wh... What are you doing here?!"
        "-chuckle- What, can't a titan visit his own son?"
        "Son? That's what you call me now? Last time I saw you, your choice of words was more... colorful. What do you want?"
        "My, we're hostile, aren't we?"
        "-crash- What do you want, dammit?"
        "-chuckle- What's wrong? You seemed so much more calm when you locked me away all those years ago."
        "How did you--When did you--?"
        "Escape? Oh, it was easy. You didn't really think the Gates of Tartarus could hold me back, did you? I escaped and have been in the land known as Italy ever since."
        "Scared to come back?"
        "Better to be loved than hated."
        "Loved?"
        "Yes. In fact, they have a festival in my honor - they call it Saturnalia. -smirk- How has Greece been, then?"
        "... ..."
        "Oh? Forgotten about you, have they?"
        "No--!"
        "Yes, they have. They just tossed you aside, called you a myth and forgot about you. Foreign feet trample your temple, not in worship but to mock the foolish Greeks who believed you were real."
        "That's not true!"
        "But it is. Don't deny it. You've grown soft, son. You gave up on the mortal world and it gave up on you."
        "Shut your damn mouth!"
        "So I'm right? -laugh- I am right. But it's not just your fault. All of you Olympians - you've grown lazy. You're out of touch with the world.
        "No we're not!"
        "Oh yeah? Prove it."
        "Prove it...?"
        "That's what I said."
        "How?"
        "Go be a mortal. I bet you anything that you can't do it."
        "How do I know this isn't just a way to trick me out of Olympus?"
        "Have more faith in your own father! How about this - Gaea can be the judge. And I'll become a mortal with you.
        "... ... Alright. But what would we wager?"
        "What else? -smirk-"
        "No. I can't take that risk."
        "What, don't trust your lazy gods?"
        "You're the one I don't trust, you b*****d!"
        "Oh, come now~ I already said Gaea will be the judge. We both know that she will be fair."
        "Perhaps, but I'm still not--"
        "It's a bit disappointing that my own son is such a coward..."
        "Coward?!"
        "Isn't that what I just said? You're scared."
        "I'm not scared! And nobody calls the king of the gods a coward! You're on!"
        "-smirk- -shakes Zeus' hand- I shall return in a week. -disappears-"
        "Dammit... Hera's going to have my head..."

        Also, the only sections that have to be in third person are personality and background. Otherwise, you can use first or third person as you wish.
