It Might Take Me A Few Days To Get The Application In, But I Was Hoping I Could Reserve Taron Egerton?

how active are you guys, on a 1-10 scale?

That’s tough question to answer because everyone has a different idea of what a ten, one, or five means and not everyone is on daily. We’re definitely most active during the nighttime (EST) and the latter half of the week if you’re wondering if other people will be on when you are.

Could I please put Emeraude Toubia FC on hold? (If you do holds?? I didn't see on your FAQ)

Emeraude Toubia is now reserved! (I call them reservations, and information on them can be found on the rules page.)

What kind of powers would a child of Hestia or Vesta have?

Below are some ideas of what demigods of Hestia and Vesta could do. I’ve also included some personality traits demigods could inherit from each of them.

They’re both hearth goddesses, and the hearth symbolizes the home, so they could both have abilities relating to family life. They could have the luck of always having a family. Family in this sense isn’t limited to blood relatives, and could include close friends. They could influence people’s attitude towards family, such as causing someone who has cut off ties with their family to feel loss or longing, or causing someone who has been forcibly cut off from their family not to care. Alternatively, they could fix most damaged family ties.

Hearth in it’s literal sense is a fireplace, so the demigod could recharge faster while around a fire. They wouldn’t be able to mend broken bones, but being around a fire could boost their mood, stamina, and energy.

Hestia is also a food goddess, so if you use her, you could give your character an innate cooking skill. They could also require less food to quench their hunger and never feel stuffed as smaller perks. Personality traits you could include for a child of Hestia, but do not have to, are being passive, non-confrontational, and family-oriented.

Vesta was seen as a protector of Rome, so I’d probably give a child of Vesta the need to protect others, even those they aren’t particularly close with. I can also see a child of Vesta naturally being gifted at teamwork and leadership. The hearth was an extremely important part of family life in Rome; it was seen as the centre of activity and the fire that burned there was the most important. Because of that, I can see children of Vesta being self-centred, vying for attention within their group of friends. Jealousy would compliment that flaw nicely.

I also think that children of Vesta and Hestia would find it easy to keep their household in order. Some people have difficulty balancing household tasks with their job and recreational activities, but I don’t think these demigods would ever experience that.

I hope this helps! If you need any further clarification or are wondering about other gods, feel free to send another ask.

Nemesis - Lieutenant of the City Guard - Demiromantic Pansexual

Purpose

Rie has come to Cure partially at the behest of her mother. She is to watch for signs of dissent towards the gods and to prevent escalation to mutiny. While she’s distrustful of her mother, Rie still wants to make her proud.The family health insurance included with her position is her main reason for coming to Cure.

History

Rie’s favourite bedtime story was how her father, Hisao met Nemesis. While enjoying the evening with friends in a casino in Las Vegas he saw a man win the five million dollar jackpot. The winner bragged about his lucky streak, and amusedly Hisao watched as a sharp eyed woman slid up to the new millionaire’s side. He thought her another sycophant, until she laughed when he proclaimed he was invincible, until he saw her smile stretch as he lost it all within the hour, and how it sparkled as he lost more in the next. Hisao approached her when she finally left him, just as he turned in his last five chips. “Why did you stay?” he asked. “Everyone else left him after the first half hour.”

She turned that smile to him, a gleam in her eyes. “You know what they say about train wrecks.”

Nemesis visited Hisao sporadically over the next year. Rie loved the paintings he made when she was his muse; the sweetly smiling face under white and black scales, two women curled up against each other, one with black hair and white skin and the other opposite. Balance and harmony. At the end of their affair Hisao was left with a baby Rie placed in his arms, Nemesis walking away.

Rie’s childhood was unstable. Hisao tried his best to raise her; giving up art to take a job in a bank. Still, she found making friends difficult. It became worse and worse, until it erupted in middle school. She found herself standing over the bloody body of a bully who had boasted that everyone was too terrified of him to fight him. Barely escaping expulsion, she and her father moved up to San Francisco. At high school Rie made a conscious effort to make friends and to keep her head out of trouble, although rumours still followed her. She was a star on the track team, especially in relay. After working on and off at her father’s bank and getting a degree in criminal law, Rie enrolled in a police academy. Part of her resented the fact that she was drawn to law because of her heritage, but it was the only thing that felt right.

She rose through the ranks, quickly finding her way into financial crime. Rie was renown in her department for being able to pick out the crooks in all the shady businessmen. When she narrowed in on a fraudster the evidence against them quickly followed. Their good luck quickly turned to bad. Her first big break was making a case against the CEO of Hisao’s bank for embezzling. Millions of funds funnelled into yachts and mansions. She smirked in the face of the CEO when she handed him the court order and search warrant. The guilty verdict came within a week of the case going to court. Later that night, her then-girlfriend pointed out the tattoo on the back of her neck; scales, the support a sword.

Hisao was quietly made redundant, but took the chance to return to his artwork. He started making a name for himself in smaller galleries. For Rie, politics got the best of her. Promotions that had been promised to Rie weeks earlier eventuated to nothing. She stayed in her position but the leads dried up, witnesses stayed silent.

Frustrated, she eagerly took the chance to transfer to a detective’s position, just for want of something to do. Bloodhound was what her new team called her. If a perp fled the scene she had an uncanny ability to track them down. Over foot, over road, even one time down a river. If they did get away, Rie would find them a few days later and bring them in. While promotions to higher paying positions were still barred to her Rie enjoyed the work, enjoyed seeing people taken to justice for their crimes and the balance of luck evening out again.

Then, her father’s health took a turn for the worse. He had always been thin, but soon he barely ate anything. His throat was sore. It had been sore for a while. Throat cancer. Stage four. Inoperable. No insurance. Rie used up the last of her savings paying for the diagnosis and the first round a treatment. She was desperate.

Which was precisely how Nemesis wanted her. In the dream, the winged goddess approached her daughter and told her of Cure, and what she would have her do there. Under the goddess’s’ orders Rie is to watch for any signs of insurrection in Cure. Nemesis knows how much power Cure has over the gods, and she’d have Rie strike down anyone who lets it get to their heads, or worse.

Rie applied for the City Guard shortly after finding out that they would help pay for her father’s treatment. Although she’s new to the position of authority, she is dedicated to doing her best. She says it’s to prove a point to herself, but she’d be lying if she omitted that she wants to impress her mother. Even if she suspects Nemesis made her father ill.

Personality

Rie has always had a vindictive streak. She remembers every injustice that’s been paid to her, no matter how small; even if she doesn’t want to. Because of this she tries to make a conscious effort to be forgiving, even if her apologies come through gritted teeth. She’s cautious and guarded simply because she knows how quickly relationships can change. Rie tries to keep her distance; she worries that as a daughter of Nemesis she can only bring bad luck to those close to her. Win her respect and trust and her stony shield will crack open to reveal a slightly softer interior; a truly empathetic friend who will kill anyone who hurts you with the fury of a thousand suns. Even though she is quite a serious person, Rie has a wicked deadpan, and can’t resist laughing when people take her seriously.

Like all true (ex-)detectives Rie has a curious streak, and like all curious streaks it can get her into trouble. Professionally Rie is a good team-player, making sure to give credit where it is due and trying to keep humble in her victories. Her morality is unusually black and white. On cases she can occasionally be stubborn, sure that she is right even when she might not be.

As of last night, I’m officially accepting applications!! I’d love to see a variety of characters before we open, particularly characters from each of the four pantheons, so don’t hesitate to ask any questions.

Apollo - Seer for the City Guard - Bisexual

Purpose

Ash wants to restore the things that society has taken away. He also knows that if he’s in the city with his ‘special gift’ that he will be protected versus being out in the real world.

History

Ash was always aware that he was different. It wasn’t anything his mother hid from him – after all there was no shame in loving his father. It was just tragic that it was Apollo and not some rich business man. If Ashton was truthful he would say that his mother was lying. He had after all left the both of them without a second glance, but Ash was happy for the most part. That was until he kept seeing things. Being the son of the God of prophecy wasn’t easy – especially when you got that power instead of his calmer ones. They were always blurry – filled with vague shapes and symbols.

But they always came true. That was the one constant in them and so Ash elected to ignore them. After all what is the point of seeing the future if you cant change it? And for the most part he didn’t want to – until he was eighteen and had a vision of his mother falling down the steps. Panicking Ash called out to his mother who was upstairs. As she rushed Ash realized a moment to late that it was what happened in his vision.  June Richards died that day in a freak accident that her son had seen.

After that Ash tried to keep his visions to himself – tried to suppress the ‘gift’ he had received. That was until recently when the visions kept coming at a rapid pace.  Instead of having them once or twice a month they were happening almost every day. He could no longer keep the visions to himself and instead opted to go to the Cure. After all if anything could help him it is being around other demigods. He signed up to be part of the city guard, but after finding out about his abilities they assigned him to be a seer for another officer. This however isn’t what Ash wants for the rest of his life, instead he’s hoping to learn how to suppress the seeing ability. After all If he can learn to suppress it maybe he can have a normal life.

Personality

Ash, much like his godly parent, is charming and boyish but also has a tendency to be abrasive and rude. Ash has also been known to take a joke to far and to be deemed shallow. Although this isn’t true Ash does have a hard time forming close relationships as he is frightened to see the same thing that happened to his mother happen again. That being said Ash has many  contacts he’s friendly too and when he wants to be is the life of the party.
