What Kind Of Powers Would A Child Of Hestia Or Vesta Have?
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.

There are way too many options for a character, have you got any personalities, godly parents, 'powers' etc you would love to have more than anything else? I'm trying to narrow down my options. Haha.
Feel free to take all or parts of the suggestions below. I’ve bolded my favourite choice for each personality.
I’d love to see a determined, ambitious character who’s aiming for the stars, even if they won’t get there - and they’re okay with that. Their god parent hasn’t contacted them, but that isn’t going to stop them from finding out everything about their abilities. They don’t have any training when they come to Cure, which is why they want to find people with similar abilities as them and learn from them. They’re optimistic, charismatic, and work at one of the shops in town.
Daisy Ridley - Roman (Vesta from this post)
Lily James - Norse (Freyja)
John Boyega - Egyptian (Horus)
Rami Malek - Egyptian (Seth)
I’d also love to see a character who is extremely independent and stubborn. They’re not necessarily rude, but they refuse help whenever it’s offered. When they were younger they didn’t receive much assistance and they adopted the mentality that they didn’t need anyone else. They’re the kind of person who believes that it’s hard work, not luck, that leads to success. They seek to better themselves in every way possible (physically, financially, intellectually, etc.) so that they’ll never have to rely on anyone for anything.
Alexander Ludwig - Norse (Odin or Thor)
Katheryn Winnick - Norse (Odin or Ullr)
Jamie Clayton - Norse (Tyr or Ullr)
Oscar Isaac - Greek (Hephaestus), Roman (Mars), or Egyptian (Ptah)
There’s also a wanted connections page that has a few ideas. If you need any more help deciding, don’t hesitate to ask!

Do you think you will eventually allow non-demigods?? Maybe nymphs or other mythological creatures?
Yeah! I definitely want to, however, I’d like to get a healthy amount of demigods first as they are what make the city function. Nymphs are one of the mythological creatures I’ll be including when I do.
would you allow a female character to play a canonically male god?
No, because no one plays any gods in this rp. All of the characters are demigods.
Hey guys! So I’ve been looking at what characters we have and a third of them are Special Cases. Since Special Cases are supposed to be rare, I’m going to put a temporary ban on them for now. To potential applicants - if you feel like there’s no way your character can work without being contacted by their god parent, please message me. More likely than not, we’ll be able to come up with an alternative that works just as well, if not better! Two possibilities are having the role you intended for the god parent filled by a mythological creature or another demigod.
The other thing I noticed was that about half the characters were Greek. I’m not going to put a ban on Greek characters, but I’d really love to see some demigods from other pantheons.

What are the special powers granted to the children of Isis?
I’ve just answered this question for Hera, Aphrodite, and Hel. Please refer to that ask as far as powers after training and “Can my character do X with Y training?”
Possible starting abilities for children of Isis include being able to prevent/induce conception, bring small plants and animals on the brink of death back to life, or being able to ease the pain of those in mourning. Some personality traits for children of Isis could include being protective and perceptive.
Welcome to Cure! Please send an ask to the main from your character account within 24 hours.

As the world became industrialized, the old world of the gods was pushed from existence, reduced to stories and legends. Now in modern times, that world is on the brink of extinction. Gods and goddesses from Greek, Roman, Norse, and Egyptian pantheons have banded together to create a city known as Cure to act as a safe haven for everything mythological. Run by demigods, this is the final chance to revive the old world and bring myth and magic back to life. Mobile Navigation -
