What are the abilities of children of Hera, Aphrodite, and Hel?

There are no set abilities for demigods. Below I list some possible starting abilities.

Hera: the ability to prevent conception (i.e. if their parent wanted to have another child, but they didn’t want a sibling) or the ability to solve, cause, or worsen relationship problems (restriction: the people must have been interested in each other to begin with)

Aphrodite: the ability to charm others (innate), the ability to slightly alter one’s appearance (appear slightly skinnier, change eye colour, alter skin flaws, etc.), or Alisha’s power from Misfits

Hel: being able to sense if someone is about to die (they may or may not know who) or foreseeing death in dreams (it would take practice to remember the details of these dreams)

I can’t give you a list of what powers a demigod will have after receiving training because there are tons of possibilities. If you’re wondering if a demigod can have a certain power, just send another ask including what that power is and how much training they’ve had. If you need help coming up with powers for a character you’ve already created, just send what you have so far and we can figure out what would work best. (Use Tumblr’s chat to avoid the annoying character limit on asks.)

+1 Greek - Sam Claflin

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!

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.

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.

I have two awesome apps sitting in the inbox right now, and I’d love to get some more before I accept tonight (probably around 10:00 pm EST). There’s still tons of great faceclaims and positions open from every pantheon. As always, if you have any questions, I’d love to answer them.

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.

Purpose

Kennard is trying to find himself, and who his father is.

History

Kennard always thought he was the son of Draven and Julia Avrett. He was happily raised amongst their two other children, although he was always the ‘dumb’ kid. Words never seemed to stay in the same order when he read them, but out in the country school wasn’t all that important. Kids were often pulled out during harvest season, or to help out around the farm. Ken was no exception, Draven often pulling him out to help repair neighbour’s farm machines. He always had a knack for mechanisms, spent his childhood making clockwork toys. As a teenager this accumulated in him restoring old cars and motorcycles with Draven, selling them and splitting the profit. It was a happy childhood, and when he scraped through and finished highschool he found no hurry to leave home.

Tragedy struck when Ken was twenty. Draven got leukemia, needed a bone marrow transplant. He tried to discourage Kennard from donating, but Ken ordered a test for compatibility behind his back. The results showed no blood relation. Half of his DNA markers were unseen before. Without her knowledge Kennard took hair from Julia’s brush, organised for a private testing. She he was related to, but as a nephew to an aunt.

One of his ‘siblings’ turned out to be a match, and after a shaky eighteen months Draven went into remission. Kennard didn’t let on the fact that he knew about the adoption, spent his spare time restoring cars, getting money to pay for Draven’s treatment and saved the rest. He requested his birth certificate, found out the name of his birth mother; Marcia Ravera. The blank space in place of his father’s name haunted Ken for nights on end.

Once his adoptive father recovered, Ken took a restored Harley Davidson, left a note to his adoptive parents on the counter and roared off into the night. Before he could return to them and accept them as his parents, he had to find out who he was without them, as his own person. He spent a year on the road to LA, the last known address of Marcia. On the way he dabbled into his savings as little as possible, picking up any skill he could to get a roof to sleep under for the night. He learnt plumbing, carpentry, gardening; all with ease. When the thought occurred to him he sent postcards back home, his writing scrawled on the back of an Texan, Arizonan, Californian landscape.

A few nights he spent in a warm bed, company in a small town that he’d soon leave behind in a dust trail. One girl stood out. He thought her crazy, talking about ancient gods alive in the real world. Talking about a utopia called Cure. It didn’t sound bad from what she had to say about it, but then again, the truck stop town she came from would have made Detroit sound nice. He left her behind in the sunset without much thought.

It was raining in LA when he arrived. He found Marcia’s last known address, knocked on the door with a trembling fist. The elderly woman who answered sadly shook her head at his tale, handed him a box that had been left in the attic, gave him directions to where he could find Marcia. He pulled up at a cemetery, found her in plot F56. He sat in front of her grave stone, plainly engraved with her name, date of birth and death, and went through the box she had left.

Inside was a diary, photos showed snap shots of her life, pressed flowers, ribbon and a spare glove. Remnants of a mother he had never known. She was obsessed with the Egyptian gods. A list in her diary, scrawled in a spider like script it took him hours to decode circled various male gods. Underlined at the bottom: which one? For the first time in months he remembered the girl with black hair in a sleepy, dusty town, dreaming of a perfect town.

With nothing left to lose, Ken set his sights on Cure. If his mother was to be an enigma, maybe he could find something about his father. He drifted into the town, used up his savings to purchase Cut Out That Ratchet. While he struggles to adjust to a non-transient life, Kennard hopes to get into some contact with his father, whoever he is.

Personality

Kennard in a word is independent. He is incredibly self-sufficient, able to support himself and others with ease. This also makes it hard for him to admit when he needs help, a stubborn streak edging on arrogance. While he likes people he doesn’t exactly crave deep and meaningful relationships; he is perfectly happy becoming friends with anyone and everyone. Maybe more than just friends. Romantically, this never bodes well for long-term relationships.

Charismatic, it’s hard not to like the man, especially since he’s an excellent listener and genuinely enjoys helping people out. However, sometimes his blunt words come out more callously then he intends them. As a blue-collar worker, he does hold a little disdain for pencil pushers, especially when they take his work for granted. Like every artisan he is proud of hi
