I don’t have an ounce of artistic talent either. Unless you count my writing.

I suppose is it is a form of art, just not a visual one. I write as well. It just is an entirely different skill set to do visual versus literary art.

The only thing that updated is that Zeus is the only paternal option but everything else is still the same.

There’s something I need to know.

Is Poseidon the only option for daddy position? Because no matter what I choose, guys, it’s always him in the end. I’ve played this game a million times and always pick different things based on wit/allure stats, also killed the seeker but it seems like Poseidon wants me no matter what.

Also I’m so in love with Athena I can’t deal… I know it’s not incest or anything but she raised MC right? It doesn’t seem like a good idea to have in one’s head, but damn… her personality and the way she talks to MC is so sweet and cute and I just want her.  
Sorry I had to voice my feelings towards her cause otherwise I’d go mad

Yes, Athena was always a favorite of mine.

I pick Athena as the goddess Leon thought deserved the golden apple.

Perhaps the game will allow the fact that the MC can remember having a crush on their now mother figure and how awkward that is come up.

No, it can be zeus, poseidon or (i think) hades. Depens on your early choices. (instruments etc.)

I recall that only Zeus will be the paternal figure for the MC once the author update the demo. I think Poseidon is being considered as well but I’m not sure.

No, that’s the original setup.

The current plan is Zeus is the default and Poseidon will be added as an option later, Hades has been written out as a choice.

Which I feel is a real shame, since Hades is the most interesting choice in my opinion, but oh well.

Hey guys, this is from Rohie’s tumblr:

[http://8hy.tumblr.com/post/168061777757/i-have-less-than-50-dollars-left-to-pay-for](http://8hy.tumblr.com/post/168061777757/i-have-less-than-50-dollars-left-to-pay-for)

She’s given us such an amazing, inclusive game for FREE. If anyone can spare some cash, it would be great if we could help her out.

I have a chunk of cash I’m saving to help pay off a percentage of my student loans for this month and my next paycheck comes next Friday, but I’ll do what I can when I’m able.

My Bearer’s name is Damon, and I picture him as Garret Hedlund when he played Murtagh in the Eragon movie.

Damon wants to be in the world of the gods. But he’s apprehensive about his responsibilities as the Bearer. He’s training as a warrior. He’s willing to give Zeus a chance. But he’s still more comfortable with Hades and Athena. His instrument is the piano, it helps him relax.

@darkwolf76 Is that enough? 🙂

> Well so far my MC has been very distrustful and hostile towards the gods aside from Hades and Athena (seeing how they basically raised him throughout his childhood) and he certainly doesn’t appreciate Ares threating Hades so obviously he stepped in between them and dared Ares to hit him instead of Hades. He’s also pretty angry about the Hunters stalking, trying to kidnap him and killing his girlfriend so when he met Saint for the first time, he just straight up attacked Saint and completely refused to believe his story that they have the same mother. He might be tempted to join up with Cronus regardless of what the others may say about him simply because he had enough of their antics towards him. He’s also reckless and never cared enough of the consequences that may occur from whatever he does, and he never asked to be a god at all, he feels as if it was all forced on him so naturally he’ll lash out against those he views to be responsible, especially the gods and as I mentioned earlier, the biggest beef he has so far is with Ares even it may risk his blooming relationship with Calypso. In the end, he just might go full out Kratos (the protagonist from the God of War series). The only people that probably could stop him from going down that path will be Hades, Athena and Calypso even if they may disagree with his actions so far.

Evander has no feelings attachment to the Gods (not counting Athena and Hades, of course), but he’s got no real feelings of hostility to most of them either. Ares is the only one so far that he’s more than willing to get confrontational with due the God of War’s hostility toward his uncle, but Evander’s also not the type of actively antagonize someone most of the time. If someone tries to antagonize him however…well, the boy’s creative with the way he deals with people.

Evander’s a tactician at heart; his mind is constantly taking in every little detail around him, from where the best place to catch the stars at their brightest to what ways to traverse a place that will make it difficult for someone to fall with him. He’s also one who likes to explore his curiosities to it’s fullest, with the tenacity and patience of a hunter. And no one should ever get between the young Demigod and the object of his curiosity (which, unfortunately for Ares, is very likely Calypso).

One of my favorite things to hear on the forum.

Sometimes I wonder how all these Bearers would react to each other (I can already see the ridiculous situations). 😆

i have a portrait and full-body sketch of my Bearer, Leigh. if i have time, i’ll post it up.

personality-wise… Leigh is pretty withdrawn, laidback and a self-admitted apathetic. They’re doing what the gods want out of their own morale and self-interest because once the second that all of this is all over, they’re going to find out and never look back (in terms of being a hero/companion for the gods).

reactions to the gods, they like Hades and Athena. Everyone else is a hard MEH. Depending on how others treat Leigh, they will likely return the same treatment back.
