Return of the Pantheon
You're just a normal teenager, living in the city of Otakun, population fifty-seven thousand. It's a pretty peaceful city, on the western coast of the USA. To someone your age, it is the epitome of boredom.
Well, that's all about to change...
Your high school is taking a field trip to the local historical museum, the principal going on in his usual drone about the wonders of the ancient Mesopotamians. You and a group of other students, less than enthralled, manage to sneak off into the mythology wing. There, among all the depictions of ancient gods, you find in an ignored corner an obsidian orb. It's covered in strange markings, and surprisingly isn't in a case. One of you touches it, and a bright light flashes, blinding you all momentarily.
When you regain your sight, the orb is gone. Thoroughly freaked out, you quickly slip back into the main group of students, who are returning to the buses that will take them back to school. You get out of school go back to your homes, not suspecting that your life is about to change...
The next day, you wake up to quite a shock. You are no longer yourself. You have, somehow, transformed into a completely new person. Quickly, you call your friends, and they give you similar stories. You all convene at one of your houses, trying to figure out what's happened to you. Some of you are even beginning to notice that you have strange new powers. The motley assembly is about to erupt into chaos when another bright light shines from the middle of the room.
When the light fades, standing in the middle of the room is a young girl dressed in a school uniform, smiling at you all. She introduces herself as Gaia, and says that you have been gifted with the powers of the Gods. The Gods have, apparently, died out over the ages, and the evils they once kept at bay are now stronger than ever. Gaia is one of the last of the Gods, the other remaining ones being Isis, Hades and Odin. She tells you that she has come to train you and prepare you for the impending tide of evil.
With that, you begin to learn of your new powers, and soon unravel a plot that encompasses more than any of the Gods suspect... In the end, you will either quell an evil greater than any ever witnessed before, or die trying.
God/Goddess Descriptions:
Sekhmet: Egyptian Goddess of the Sun and Destruction. She has the head of a lioness. It's up to the RPer if they want to just give her the Lioness head, go for all-out anthro, or something in between. ~ Presea "Pres" Combar (kalad1)
Bastet: Egyptian Goddess of Cats. She has the head of a black cat. Same goes for Bastet as Sekhmet, it's the RPer's choice on how many animal features they want. Bastet has a leaner, sleeker build than Sekhmet, less muscle and more sinew. ~ Safira "Safi" Kilnero (Kikyo)
Anubis: Egyptian God of the Dead. He has the head of a black jackal. Same applies to him as for the other two Egyptian dieties, the jackal head being mandatory, any other animal features being optional. Anubis is rather muscular, although not overtly so. ~ Rahmus DelKorrde (Outlaw JT)
Athena: Greek Goddess of Wisdom, Crafts and War. She is more athletic than most of the other Goddesses, although she still has an admirable figure. She also has a pet owl (optional). ~ Deirdre "Deej" Burns (VirtualPlay)
Apollo: Greek God of Light, Music and Creativity. He has blonde hair and blue eyes, and a very slight build. He carries a Lyre. ~ Adrienne Colne (Nabooru23)
Aphrodite: Greek Goddess of Love. She is very attractive, having a perfect figure and a rather *ahem* well endowed chest region, and blonde hair. ~ Kristina Firaga (Flaming Krystal)
Skadi: Norse Goddess of Hunting and The Frost. She is very pale, and burns easily in the sun if she doesn't have a strong sunscreen on. She wields a spear. ~ Taken by Pronus "Pro" Colne (Krystalline Kabutops)
Thor: Norse God of Thunder. He possesses a large hammer. Thor is very muscular, and has a good deal of hair. He has a helmet, and a pet hunting wolf (optional). ~ Myrmur Taari (Weasel Overlord)
Foresti: Norse God of Justice. He is slimmer than Thor, and more scholarly. ~ Taken by Dashamir Orrery (Emotional Faun Chiko-sai)

My SU:
Name: Pronus "Pro" Colne
Age: 15
Sex: Male
Personality: Pro is the typical class clown, always messing around and getting his nose where it doesn't belong. He loves a good joke, even if it's at someone elses expense. Occasionally, he'll go too far, although he -usually- apologizes afterwards. He gets mad if the joke's on him however. He's a bit sexist, but you know what they say, what goes around comes around...
Original Appearance: just like
this, although he wears baggy jeans, a black t-shirt and a backwards baseball cap instead.
God/dess Appearence: Just like
this, although she has normal ears and hair the color of ice. Aditionally, she wears black dress shoes and a blue, pleated skirt that comes halfway down her thighs. In her Goddess form, she wears clothing like
this, but without the wings and headgear. She also possesses an ornate throwing spear that looks like
this.
God/dess: Skadi
Domain: Hunting and Frost
Abilities: She can detect animals in the nearby vicinity, and can freeze small things just by touching them and willing them to freeze. The maximum size of objects she can freeze get progressively larger as the RPG goes on.
Relationships: Pro is good friends with Deej, to the extent that they're almost siblings. Sometimes, she has to reign him in when his pranks go to far. However, nowadays he's the one wishing she'd reign in her own pranks some more...
History: Pro has lived most of his life in California, spending most of grade school a social outcast. In middle/high school, he met Deej, and they've been thick as thieves since. Having a friend really helped to boost his self-esteem, even to the point where he's a bit of a fathead. However, he's still insecure, so he picks on girls, even Deej on occasion. Since his karma's pretty bad, it comes back to bite him in the butt quite often after the Museum Incident.
Other: Pro is pretty angry about becoming a girl, now going under the alias Melony Cohld. The others in the group like to tease him about it (Especially some of the girls), but he keeps his temper in check by plotting new ways to use his newfound powers in pranks. Of course, none of them are successful, but it's the thought that counts.
