CHARACTER CREATION
This site is AU so while we follow Riordan and Greek mythology as closely as possible, some details or situations may be changed or removed as part of site canon.
+
GODLY PARENTSWe do not allow children of primordials, titans, giants, or deified mortals/demigods. No exceptions.
The following list is just an example of deities that do not work on the site.
PRIMORDIAL DEITIES: Chaos, Erebus, Nyx, Aether, Hemera, Gaia, Uranus, Ourea, Pontus, Tartarus, Ananke, Chronos, Hydros, Himeros, Thesis, Moirai, Phanes, Nesoi, Thalassa, Ophion, Oceanus, Eros, Protogeneia, Physis, Moros
TITANS: Kronos, Rhea, Oceanus, Tethys, Hyperion, Theia, Coeus, Phoebe, Mnemosyne, Themis, Crius, Iapetus
For a full list of titans please refer to the Riordian Wiki. There are a few exceptions starting with the third generation. Please ask admins if the one you would like as a godly parent is acceptable.
Admins will accept obscure minor gods as long as the history makes sense (e.g. how their immortal parent met their mortal parent).
Every member is allowed to have a maximum of two children of the Big Three. However, it must be one Greek demigod and one Roman demigod. Also please pay attention to the current creation limits of the Big Three (check the stats below!)
We currently have a Big Three limit of 5 per cabin. Once the limit is reached all future applications won't get accepted until space opens up or the limits will be updated.
Current statistics:
Jupiter ( 4/5 )
Zeus ( 2/5 )
Neptune ( 1/5 )
Poseidon ( 2/5 )
Pluto ( 1/5 )
Hades ( 5/5 )
Since the gods' appearances are very fluid and can change to their liking, it is not mandatory to base your character's ethnicity off of the available artwork. We suggest sticking with their mortal parent when it comes to their appearance.
+
LEGACIESWhen it comes to legacies we will keep them very restricted so check over the claims before you make a whole app designed around it. If you're unsure about your character's general idea or powers please don't hesitate to contact a member of staff! We'll gladly help you.
We only accept demigod legacies, no mortal ones.
We do not accept legacies of the Big Three ( Jupiter/Zeus, Neptune/Poseidon, Hades/Pluto ).
Legacies are allowed to inherit one power from their godly ancestor, however, this ability has to be immensely watered down and cannot be stronger than their godly parent's powers.
+
CLAIMINGThey may know about their godly parents and even meet them prior to camp. However, claiming a demigod only happens at camp, a camper will not be "officially" claimed by their godly parent until they arrive at camp.
Upon further reflecting and researching into both Camp Jupiter and Camp Half-Blood archival records, we have uncovered new evidence to verify the claiming procedures of demigods from minor gods and goddesses. On August 18th 2009 an unclaimed demigod, who shall remain unnamed in all due respect, was stricken from this side of Gaia. There had been no fealty with lineage and therefore no proper way to mourn or assist with burial rights. All who had known the unnamed demigod protested with outrage at the sheer heartless act of the unclaiming. It was thereby decreed henceforth that all demigod children whether from minor gods or goddesses to any of the main alike would all be claimed fully.
+
POWERSSuperman is not a thing people. Make your characters with flaws and boundaries. It's not reasonable (or fun) to role play with a character who is the strongest, fastest, and overall best of the best. It's just not a thing and we won't allow it.
We differentiate between major and minor abilities. E.g. Electrokinesis, Hydrokinesis, Mystiokinesis, Charmspeak are all major powers. Control over clothes and make-up, alchemy, shadow travel are considered minor powers.
Children of the Big Three are allowed to have up to 2 major powers and 1 minor power. Children of all other gods are allowed to have 1 major power and 1 minor.
E.g. a child of Aphrodite/Venus may have the ability Charmspeak as major power and the ability to control clothes, make-up, and jewelry as minor ability, or,
a child of Hades/Pluto may have the abilities Necromancy and Geokinesis as major powers as well as Shadow Travel as minor power.
Please refer to the Riordian Wiki for all abilities available. If there is a particular one you don't see on the list don't hesitate to ask staff and we will check if it's possible or not.
+
UNIQUE CHARACTERSUnique characters are welcomed with minor gods as parents, however, do not try to make them overly complicated. There is no need for them to be some powerhouse, these are young demigods, not gods. They won’t be super-powered, they are still learning.
Admins reserve the right to deny a power if we feel this doesn’t make sense for the character/parentage, i.e. a child of Khione being able to melt rather than freeze something.
We don’t want to hamper creativity but we also can’t have Zeus himself running around camp. If the admins ask you to change something it’s for a reason, if you can’t accept that then this may not be the site for you.
+
HUNTERS OF ARTEMISWe only have one group of hunters on the site. This group will be made of female Greek demigods, Roman demigods, nymphs, mortals, etc. They do not differentiate between Artemis/Diana but see her as the same goddess.
While they used to have been able to use the Artemis Cabin to stay at Camp Half-Blood, they don't have a cohort to stay at at Camp Jupiter. They will most likely make use of their own tents etc. to build a small lodge within camp grounds.
+
LEADERSHIP POSITIONSEvery member is allowed to have one leadership position per account when you begin. (e.g. Centurion, Cabin Leader if the spot is available).
You may apply for a second leadership position once you have made 60 posts (with any character, post count can be added together if you have multiple characters) and at least two active threads.
Leadership positions cannot be challenged or fought for. It is a first come first serve basis.
Please be active with those characters. If you haven't posted for 1 month without absence note we will remove your character from their position to open up the spot for someone more active.
