Welcome to Gaia! ::

For the TL;DR people:

The gods of the ancient greek pantheon, the Olympians, have grown tired of waiting to be worshipped, and so stepped down from the heavens to live among the people. You will play as one of these Gods and decide that they are either going to fit in, or flounder and be discovered. If you choose not to be a God, you may play as a human, who has befriended a God or Goddess. THIS DOES NOT MEAN the you automatically know what they are, and will only find out if they reveal it to you or through some SIGNIFIGANT evidence that they aren't human.

Q&A

X X X X X Good question. I wasn't really planning on it, so probably not, mostly because the Gods who decided to become human lost all their status, and immortality. The only way they will have contact with the other Gods will be just as other humans: through prayer and other religious ritual type stuff. :]

The Gods and Goddesses

I was a member of the Pantheon once: Artemis

But the humans know me as: Alice Addler

Feel free to call me: Ally, Al

I used to be the God(dess) of: Virgins, hunting, and the moon

But here on earth I have a different job: Zoo Keeper

Humans tend to think I am: 21 years old

Secretly I can: Talk to animals, and take on some of their own abilites (like dog nose for scent, bat ears for hearing, and cat eyes for sight, ect) and see in the dark better than humans.

So far: Alice came down from Olympus six weeks ago, not the first to come down but certainly not the last. She had just been hired as a janitor at the local zoo, when the zookeepers and her employers saw how the animals reacted to her. Despite their better instinct and her lack of qualification they accepted her into their ranks, and now she has an apartment full of pets, not knowing (or caring) that some of them are illegal to own.

People like to say I am: Hot-headed, stubborn, calm, and passionate.

Oops! I think I forgot something!: I can change to being Artemis, my Goddess form

I am controlled by: I_The_Prokaryote





I was a member of the Pantheon once: Helios

But the humans know me as: Jericho Creed

Feel free to call me:...by my name

I used to be the God(dess) of: The Sun

But here on earth I have a different job: Historian

Humans tend to think I am: 23 years old

Secretly I can: call forth my forever burning chariot pulled by four flaming horses, speaking of fire and flames I can cast and manipulate fire at my will.

So far: Lived among the mortals for 6 months and been one of the first to depart from the mount to settle as a human being. He have taken a profession of being a chronicler of events and artefacts, or in other words a historian, sense to understand ones species is to understand their art and history

People like to say I am: Calm and controlled at most times meanwhile at other times he can go into a threshold in anger and depression

Oops! I think I forgot something!: Although I am unable to change back to my God form like others I can conjure weapons back from my immortal days to aid me in nothing else but battle and self defence against other Gods both retired or still at in the prime of their immortal days

I am controlled by: Rhien Vari





I was a member of the Pantheon once: Dionysus

But the humans know me as: Aiden Sullivan

Feel free to call me: Aiden, Sully

I used to be the God(dess) of: Wine, theater, ecstasy.

But here on earth I have a different job: Theater college professor.

Humans tend to think I am: 26

Secretly I can: Exert powerful charisma "There's just something about him...", able to alter people's moods, both positive and negative, cannot be held by restraints of any kind.

So far: I have been here about six months and settled into simply being a teacher of the theater arts. I know, I know, it's not much
of a difference in lifestyle from before, but I can't help myself. I just keep coming back to this, and so I accept it rather than fight it.

People like to say I am: Instigating, inspiring, pleasant, fun to be around, a free spirit.

Oops! I think I forgot something!:
Check out THIS heavenly body. ;]


I am controlled by: kerrian_thornvale

Reserved

Alex dropped the plate onto the counter, "If one more customer sends the food back...." he muttered to himself. The cook looked at him, concern in his eyes and Alex just shook his head. "Taking my fifteen minute break," he told the cook. He went outside and leaned against the wall. It would have been better, sharing my power with the humans, but then again, they already have bloodlust, so it would have been worse. He heard the news talking about the war going on, bringing up memories of leading an army to battle. He smiled, those were the good days to him, Remember Alex, control your temper or else... He took a deep breath to calm down some more, than walked back inside, grabbing a burger as he sat down in the back.

Aihime Trinity

Ai tapped her pen on her desk, staring at the phone. Ring, she willed it. Ring.

It rang.

Yes! Ai thought triumphantly. Finally, something to do!

She picked up the receiver and calmly spoke. "911. What's your emergancy?"

She listened at the hysterical woman over the line, then instructed her to stay away from the scene and the police would be there in a few minutes. Then she hung up and picked up the radio sitting next to her.

"We've got a Code 945 on 1113 Willet. Closest unit, please respond."

She set down the radio as the appropriate unit responded, and noticed the stare of one of hte other dispatchers. A new girl. Name of Claire or something.

"What's a Code 945?" She asked curiously. Ai sighed.

"It means a type of sacrificial ritual. From the sounds of it, the woman walked in to her garage to find possibly the whole neighborhood's supply of dogs cut apart on the work bench. Freaky stuff." Ai could never understand the call of religion that forced people to do such things. Heck, she couldn't understand religion at all.

Claire looked like she was going to be sick. Ai ignored her and leaned back. In time she'd come to learn to block all emotions from this job.

And now it was back to the temporary boredom until she received another call...
