Children of the Gods (Important poll #12306)

Even I didn’t know that :wink:

But it’s gorgeous, just like everything you create. I really can’t express how happy it makes me to see that you’d willingly devote so much of your own free-time on these characters! My gratefulness goes on (there aren’t enough likes).

O my goddess. Hundreds of posts to examine as precious seashells. It’s…only been a few days. Love ette.[/hopes for all new secrets, theories, and backstage antics]
I am also uber driverdelighted to witness other’s visions of Rohie’s vibrantly molded cast. Wonderously enough, I had just been thinking about compiling my cornucopia of faces all into one place, (gods and goddesses included). Should I sleep or…
@potouto, your Santiago is quite inspired, the eyebrows must be as expressive as Groucho’s mustache after all. And yet your Aeson is…my Black Magic. (When stars and stories collide.) Reminds me of the teensy yet massive battle in my head that Evan Ecstasy and Saint cannot bear the same face merely due to my own private laziness. Your Avery is gloriously close to my vision, though. Heart-shaped faces for the win. :clap:

I have to say, youve been doing a great job at capturing each characters personalities into an easily digestable moodboard~
Avery is well…stunning haha although my bias will forever be Sage :joy:

One of the meanings of Avery is “elf ruler” along with wise and chancellor, it’s french. I think the elf part came from a really old story.

Am I the only one who noticed this?
The part in the prologue when you choose your male name…
You are forced to name the boy to girls…
Sorry I might confused you

Very pretty as always :> you’re tempting me to make my own aesthetic post (I should be doing my but here I am…I’ll get to that in a bit as soon as I finish catching up here)

@Noirix, it’s a bug as of now but will likely be solved by the next update

It’s a bug that appears if you go with the prologue. it’s gonna be fixed soon.

List of bugs:

  1. Naming sequence bug (does not happen when you decide to skip the prologue)
  2. Poseidon/Fishdad bug
  3. Eye Color bug (see post 9108 for example [no screenshot])
  4. Bleeding Palm bug (see post 9150 for example)

Thank you so much :heart: I’m really glad you like the aesthetics I made, I’m just worried they won’t be sufficient for everyone’s taste ;_; And it’s only natural aha I really enjoy the story itself and the characters are all charming in their own way <3

Believe me when I said he wasn’t my first choice for Aeson but as far as faceclaim goes, I think he looks decent as our Bestower boy…I think. I’m not entirely sure. And I must thank Rohie for Avery’s faceclaim, it was thank to her that the current Avery is well, Avery.

Sage is coming right up after this, she’s actually my favourite as well :smile: I’m glad you like the aesthetics though :000

Yes, you should do your own as well! I’m excited to see what others can come up with <3

This is so self-indulgent but I made one for my Lavei because my soft son is good practice. His aesthetic is such a pain though D| The colour itself is irritating, I should’ve gone with white gold yet, I punched myself in the face I said wing it. Now that I got him out of the way, time for Sage and general Lavei <3

I REALLY UNDERSTAND your feeling

Well that would explain Aeson’s apparent wealth, but surely it is Apollo, not Hades, if anyone who would give his demigod children money powers?
In any case even if Aeson has them that doesn’t automatically mean my mc has them too and even if he does they’re probably utterly useless to him for two reasons.
First and foremost he’s not at all trained in how to actually use them, so if they do anything for him they’ll probably create stacks of three “Reagan” bills with a picture of Robert Bork on them, in other words worthless, useless “funny money” that cannot even be sold on eBay due to having somehow been printed on real treasury paper with impossible to replicate watermarks and everything in place. So the only thing that “money” would buy my mc is a one way trip to an all-inclusive vacation at Club Fed. :unamused:
Secondly he’d never accept anything at all from “daddy” Hades and that includes money powers. But again even if my mc does have them they’d be horribly untrained and thus utterly worthless. If they don’t produce outright funny money they’d create a couple of pennies at best.

Yup, you got those right, and he’s very much Zeus’ son. Like, the first time Hera sees him she’s just “Holy Self, he has Zeus’ shoujo sparkle.” And thank you :heart:

I guess it all comes down to the fact that Damon can be summed up with this quote:

As a child Damon was a pure idealist, a gentle soul who was quite caring about those around him and whose quietness was matched by a surprisingly strong courage. Events later in his life led him to become a lot more cynical and wary, but instead of destroying his softer side, he chose to armor it with his pragmatism and more grounded view toward life. Part of Damon’s own journey of self-growth is to find a balance between the idealism he harbors from his childhood and the cynicism that embodies his person now. :slight_smile:

As for the Aeson situation, as far as he’s concerned, the Hero’s probably had to deal with his own problems and is hardly the one at fault for any of the pain Damon experienced on his own or the broken promise that Hades’ made (that fault solely belongs to his Uncle alone). Besides, Damon’s always wanted a little brother.

I would like to try being friends with Hephaestus and Hestia myself; it seems they are the two who may have the more grounded reasons for being against the idea of making the Bearer a Hero/Heroine.

As for the closuring thing, I doubt that the Bearer may get much closure from their past lives; they’ve been reborn so many times,and while the Trojan War was once such moment of their lives, it is hardly the only one they may end up experiencing with Aeson.

Sssoooo…the Bearer may be introduced to their boyfriend/girlfriend’s family during the summer? :innocent:

If that were to happen, I wonder how it will go. I mean, we know Aeson’s mom passed away that that he’s an only child, but Calypso has her two little brothers and mother, Adonis has his father and little sister, Avery has her half-brother and her divorced parents , and I’m taking a wild guess and saying that the boy who tries to prevent Sage from jumping the Bearer during the dance may be another brother of hers.

All of my Bearers have this little warning alarm in their head that shouts “STRANGER DANGER; I NEED AN ADULT” whenever she’s around (even Damon, and he’s very flirty by nature). Besides, my Zeus Bearer Pan likes guys and is asexual; he would certainly be the one with even less interest in Aphrodite (funny thing is, Adonis is his intended love interest). :laughing:

We already met her family. :imp:

She had better keep all dangerous(pointy, mostly) objects away, least something else happens.

Well, I mean family that’s ALIVE (and hopefully not possessed) :sweat_smile:. i don’t know why, but I feel like Sage is probably the one with the biggest blood-related family out of all the ROs (like she may have more siblings besides Saxon and the boy she was with during the dance).

Probably, but since my mc won’t have a boyfriend (unless Ares changes his mind about us) summer, if we indeed get to experience a relatively quiet one will be absolute hell for my mc as he really doesn’t want to stay with his “family” or on Olympus (which may sadly be the same thing).:unamused:

Though I’ve no doubt that actually meeting Santiago’s mortal (billionaire) family would be interesting. Alas due to personal circumstances my mc is not quite prepared to put up with Santiago’s supreme arrogance and spoiled rich-boy antics. :sweat:

I have another question abt demigods and their families. Do Demigods only visit during the summers? What about holidays? Do they spend those on Olympus too?
