Name: Azcóatl (Short name: Az)
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Appearance:
Personality: Azcóatl is known for his calm and peaceful way of handling ways, despite being the son of one of the most venerated gods of its pantheon, and most importantly, he lives a humble life to find the true meaning of inner peace. He is patient with those around him but is very distant lacking social skills of his own making him a very shy person and a more introverted being.
Pantheon: Aztec
Divine Parent(s): Coatlicue, Tlaloc
Domain: Thunder, Water, and Nature
Abilities:
Lighting Strike: As a gift from his father he was given the power to control the lighting of a storm and use it to take down a big line of enemies close to the lighting, it can be really powerful depending on the user. The downside to it is that there needs to be at least one cloud above the user of this power in order to work, otherwise the ability won't work

Diluvio: Rain is important for the crops to grow and feed an entire village, but a little too much might do a lot of harm. The ability would create clouds above the enemy in front and let it rain a deluge with freezing water that will freeze you if you are exposed for a long time to it, strong winds that push the enemy to a considerable distance, only used for self-defense or to escape a really powerful enemy. The downside is that the user needs to stay hydrated to use it, you can't make it rain if you are a desert yourself

Healing Flowers: Thanks to her mother, he was given the ability to spawn flowers around the user or any ally, that will illuminate the user, or ally and will slowly heal its wounds. Depending on the mastering of the ability, the healing will be faster and can cure even the worst diseases or wounds. The downside is that it uses a lot of vital energy of the user, and its side effects are feeling tired and exhausted, and what does the body do when tired and exhausted? Sleep, though its side effects can be reduced depending on how much the user masters this ability

Power of Nature: Az doesn't get angry too often, and it is very rare that he does, legend says that one day he was so angry he awoken a new ability. The power of thunder, water, and nature would start to flow around the user and combine them into one single-shot beam that destroyed everything in its path. Depending on the mastering of it, the power of the ability is, and the downside is that not only is it a one-time-use ability, but the user also needs to be angry enough to activate the skill. The refreshing of the ability makes it used only once after a month.
Classes: Power Management
Gym/Fighting
Magic
Diplomacy
Stargazing
Artistic Expression

Background:

The War of the gods was devastating and horrifying for Az, who believed that problems should be solved with words instead of fighting, but due to being young at the time he was not taken seriously and the result of it became clear with many innocent lives being lost in the process. So when the idea about making a school to unite the new generations and bring peace for the future to come, he was quite excited and his mother would let him assist for as long as he could bring every pantheon together but also advise him to be careful, who knows what type of dangers a teenager like him would get him into. Aside from all that he was ready to meet new people! And looking forward to this experience.

Didn't think I'd see this when I logged back on to NS, but I am pleasantly surprised. I might make an app as I have been a long time away from RPing/writing in general. It'd be fun to make a character Luminessa likes just to give them severe trauma again

Name: Aemilia
Gender: F
Age: 19
Appearance: Pictured: Aemilia to the left, and very nervous and terrified friend Claudia who got roped into Legionary shenanigans
Personality: Aemilia is a very jovial soul, many of her home even insist upon the word "Enlightened" despite her youth. A radiant charisma and confidence is all around her, and almost always she wears a smile or smirk, or is simply just laughing. She seems almost carefree, but shows incredible depth and understanding when the time for laughter and feasts has ended. Feasts, and festivals, her favorite parts of her favorite thing to study and talk about - Anthropology, particularly, cultural anthropology! Warning: may jump around a bit in conversation due to parallel processing.
Pantheon: Roman
Divine Parent(s): Janus, Minerva
Domains: Destruction, Rebirth, Wisdom
Abilities:
Destruction: Aemilia wields power over... Destruction itself. Spontaneous explosions, Anti-energy manipulation, and Destructive energy manipulation. These energies can be sensed, infused into objects, used in an aura, used in attacks directly or to enhance them, as well as constructs out of destructive energy, most specifically... copies of herself! Which she totally, definitely, does not ever use to make her own little cohort. Never. Not once. That would just be silly. Probably.

Rebirth: The power of Rebirth applies not only to life, but as with Destruction, to concepts and ideas as well. Just as light could be destroyed, it can be reborn. As the forest is annihilated, it too shall have a Rebirth. Life-force manipulation is the core of this, with its soothing healing, and ability to sense life itself, to empower it and convert it, and, of course, to make more copies of herself! No, she doesn't use them to form a legionary cohort, stop being ridiculous! You can't make a cohort out of 5 temporary constructs a day. Life-Force, too, can be used to attack, if one were so inclined, working much like Destruction does but it makes flowers and stuff appear instead of ashes and desolation!

Enlightened Wisdom: Youth has not stopped the young Goddess from her Enlightenment. Her mind is calm, and perfectly balanced internally. She knows when lies are told... Usually (emotional intelligence seems to correlate to defense, and some things are so high they're unreadable!), and can vaguely sense the general direction of truth, though its full uncovering yet evades her. Illusions are of minimal use against her, and her love of dealing with people has made her exceptionally skilled at using psychology and her own sense of balance and enlightenment to gently guide others toward epiphany. She has a tendency to be a bit "jumpy" however, as the parallel processing she partakes in to advance her quest for knowledge and learning will result in suddenly switching tracks without warning.

Classes: Power management, Gym, Diplomacy, Crafting, Humanities and Artistic Expression
Background: Born to tow divine parents, the very nature of Duality and Wisdom would seem to have been a mere inevitably for Aemilia. In the sprawling Plains of Elysium she grew up, all around her was family. Not merely her parents, nor even the other gods, but even the community of the ascended mortals themselves became indistinguishable to her.

Her journey began very young, when upon one summers morning, the denizens of the fields awoke to a massive plane of desolation, just off in the near distance. Among a field, now of destitution and ash, remained a single entity, she had fallen to her knees and cried many tears. Her family, all her family, all the souls of the mortal watched, unsure of what to do. One man, though, stepped calmly forward to console her, and told the girl of the unavoidable cycle of life and death, of Destruction and Rebirth. Slowly, an end approached to her tears, and she nodded solemnly. As the people returned to their lives, Aemilia remained in her spot the whole day, in silent contemplation.

The next morning, when Elysium woke once more, desolation had left their world. In it's place now, was a new and thriving grove of trees and streams, among a vast and renewed field of wheats taller than any had ever laid eyes upon. There still sat Aemilia, now under the trees, as the common people gathered. She explained to them, but in particular to the man from the day prior, what had happened. Such a small thing, simple trip over a rock, she had scraped her knee, and for just a moment her anger flashed... in that moment, death overtook all around her.

So she remained in the fields after their talk, and she came to think; if her anger could bring Destruction, could her love and care bring Rebirth? And so returned the fields, and so sprouted the trees, and ran the streams. It was all so simple, or so it was now, yet she could not shake the uneasy feeling, the feeling of knowing it was unavoidable destiny to destroy all which she made, all which she loved, all in which she saw beauty.

For that day, and for many after it, the wise man would join her under the trees, to talk of many things, both great and small. As days became weeks, and weeks became months, the grove continued to grow, and more and more people would find themselves basking in its majesty, from festivals and feasts, to quiet nights with the skies above. Years would go by, and the young Aemilia would slowly come to terms with the paradoxical feeling of being both the Beginning, and the End.

Soon a decade had passed, and the great tree, the largest of them all which sat principle among the grove, had begun to wilt and die. Though it was young, disease had taken to its roots. On the day of the new year's passing, the End of one cycle, to the Beginning of another, Aemilia would decline to heal the tree, knowing well that she could. It was not her place to meddle needlessly in the world and nature, she was meant merely to guide it, to observe it, to ensure the cycle of Destruction and Rebirth ebbed and flowed seamlessly across time. With a gentle hand against it's trunk, she laid it forever to rest, with all the goodbyes and well wishes reserved for a close friend. In its final throes fell a seed, and in it's wake the seed was planted, and with a graceful brush of the soil over its top, did it begin to grow once more.

The war in Heaven ended that year, and but a mere two later, when the subject came of the treaty and its binds, it was put upon the Romans to send one of their own to a new domain among the gods. A hall not merely for learning, but for the creation of unity and harmony between Pantheons. For this, it was thought, there could be only correct choice... and indeed, she was all too happy to volunteer, to leave a world of knowledge among books, to a world of knowledge through life - the way it was meant to be.

Destruction needs to be nerfed badly. All of the powers listed there are separate powers, having that many powers is way too overpowered for a student goddess. I’d say keep the energy manipulation and spontaneous explosions, but not the nullification and negation.

Okay, so here is what needs to be changed, For destruction - no anti-energy manipulation, no constructs, and no clones.

Rebirth - Limit the clones to 5.

Wisdom - No detecting lies from gods, detecting illusions seems more like a perception then wisdom so make it weaker or removed, and the rest talked in discord.

Name: Cepha
Gender: Female
Age: Early 20s (physically)
Appearance: Tall, muscular build with strong, well defined features. She has short, fluffy dark hair and warm grey skin with gold ore-like veins running across her body. She wears simple, earth toned robes and sandals.
Personality: Taking after her adoptive family, Cepha is amiable and down-to-earth. She can be a bit playful at times, but any antics are short-lived and (typically) harmless. She tries to see the good in everyone, and she's always willing to lend a hand.
Secretly, she feels unworthy of her divinity, so she compensates by trying to be helpful to others.
Pantheon: Greek
Divine Parent(s): The Ourea
Domain: Mountains, Earth, Stone
Abilities:
•Earth/Stone manipulation
•Gem manipulation
•Enhanced strength/endurance
•Enhanced resilience/pain resistance
•Musical affinity (not a Godly ability, just something she picked up)
Classes: History, Fighting, Creation/Crafting, Magic (main); Stargazing and Artistic Expression (electives)
Background:
The Great War in Heaven was devastating. Even the Ourea, sons of Gaea, the great mountain Gods and pillars of divine strength, were not spared from the conflict. Many were killed, their mountainous bodies shattered and soaked in blood and ichor.

From this mixture, Cepha was born. A mere fledgling, she was rescued by a group of nymphs who took her deep into the forest. Always on the move, she was raised by dryads and satyrs, who did everything they could to shield her from the war.

Her adoptive family taught her all manner of things, from stargazing to playing the lyre. Most importantly, however, they taught her stories; through poems, songs, and hushed gossip, Cepha learned stories of far-off lands, of gods and monsters alike. What Cepha liked the most, however, were the stories about heroes, mortals who overcame impossible odds and changed the world.

Much later, after the war had ended, Cepha helped rebuild places that had been devastated by the war. She used her strength to clear entire villages worth of rubble, and to build new ones in their place. She told stories and sang songs to raise peoples' spirits and to give them hope. She gave them hope, and served as a pillar of strength, much like her forefathers.

The prospect of attending Holy High was one that Cepha more than looked forward to. For the first time in her life, Cepha would be surrounded by other deities, all with their own unique stories to tell. And she couldn't wait to meet them.


Sorry this is a few days late, there were some things I wanted to revise.
I wasn't sure about the exact timeframe of the War in Heaven, so I kept it somewhat vague so that it could easily fit into the narrative. If there's any revisions I should make, feel free to let me know.

Hi! I have a question. There's a greek myth about a gigantic fox called the teumessian fox that couldn't be caught, then things happen, and it becomes a constellation.

People say it's both the greek god of foxes and a monster, so I guess my question is: Can my young god be the daughter of the teumessian fox? She'd have fox ears, be able to become a fox, things like that.

also, keep in mind that in the myths Athena had a child born from a tissue, so a constellation having a daughter wouldn't be too strange.
I'm actually really bored. Talking is nice. Maybe TG me?

Yeah, I found nothing that says that the Teumessian fox is a greek god and it was just a monster used to punish Thebes that was later turned to stone and later a constellation. Which brings up the thought, how and why does a constellation have a child? I am going to have to say no to this.

It's classical mythology. It's not going to make sense because mythology tends not to make sense.

How does Athena exist when she burst out of a forehead? By that logic we can't have Athena, either.

Per Encyclopedia Britannica:
“Pleiades, in Greek mythology, the seven daughters of the Titan Atlas and the Oceanid Pleione: Maia, Electra, Taygete, Celaeno, Alcyone, Sterope, and Merope. They all had children by gods (except Merope, who married Sisyphus).”

The Pleiades are a constellation. There you go.

Run with the App, Tuboo, let’s take a look at it and if there’s any actual issues with the App we’ll deal with that.

Name: Vix
Gender: Female
Age: 28 (physically)
Personality: As her name suggests, she's very fierce and argumentative at times, and often picked fights with the village council before they banished her, although her exile softened the rough edges, she'll still lash out occasionally. She can be a little shy at times.
Appearance:
Image

Pantheon: Greek
Divine Parent(s): Artemis, (Surrogate parent is the Teumessian fox.)
Domain: Foxes, agility, and stealth.
Abilities:

Affinity of the fox
Vix can turn into an adult red fox at will. During this time, she can still understand humans and retains her memories and thoughts. This transformation wears her out though, and staying in fox form drains energy. This means she has to increase her stamina in order to keep that form.
She has the enhanced smell and hearing of a fox, as well as retractable claws. Her longest time in fox form is twenty minutes.

Peircing Shriek
Now, I know what you're wondering; what DOES the fox say? And I have an answer! They don't. Instead, they scream as a way to communicate. Vix can do something similar, emitting a high-pitched screech that will bring all foxes within a 5-mile radius to her location. using this power she can also talk to foxes.

Immortality
Like all gods, Vix is immortal.

Swift
she can run really, really fast for a short period of time.

Sharp Spikes
Vix can make her teeth and nails incredibly sharp like a paper shredder. She can make her teeth return to normal, but she has to trim her nails back down, so she's become adept at giving herself manicures.

Ears diminish fears
This... isn't really a power, but her fox ears contain much floof, and petting them can calm people and gods down. However, she rarely lets people touch them without permission. If you manage to do so without permission... Well, let's just say that her nails won't be the only thing she's trimming.

Sneaky Pounce
She can sneak up behind her enemy while holding her breath. Once she is where she wants to be, Vix can propel herself into the air; effectively launching a surprise attack on the victim's head.

Classes: History, Power management, Diplomacy, Gym/Fighting, Stargazing, Artistic expression.

Background: Before she was turned to stone and became a constellation, the Teumessian fox was nine months pregnant with Vix. All throughout her time as a rock, and then a constellation, Vix was still growing; just at a much slower pace. However, The power used to change her into a rock was partially absorbed by Vix, making her appear half-human. This also changed her into a god.

Vix was finally born during the middle of the war and fell to earth, where she was found by some villagers on a hunting trip. Despite her ears, tail, and eyes, they took her to the village and raised her, giving her the name Vix-a shortened version of the name for a female fox, Vixen.

As years passed, earthquakes and tornadoes ravaged the land around the village, and the game was scarce. even the small mammals, like mice, had fled. It was around this time when an earthquake went straight through the village, and a small child fell in. Vix saw this; screaming bloody murder, she ran to the gap with a burst of inhuman speed, catching her.

After this incident, both the villagers and Vix realized there was something more to her inhuman appearance, something...godlike. When the council heard they banished her, blaming her for the village's misfortune and the large number of foxes that had shown up after the incident.

For years, she wandered from place to place, learning from philosophers and craftsmen, but never staying in one place. It was at one of these towns where she met a strange old man who spoke of a godly war causing destruction. While many ignored him, she sat and listened, learning of alliances, betrayals, victories, and defeats. Approaching the man, she asked him how he knew. He simply smiled, saying, "Listen to yourself, young one. There's a reason for those ears. Listen and discover your power."
Then, he disappeared.

After that, Vix did a lot of thinking, trying all sorts of things to understand what he meant. A year before the war ended, she found out-By turning into a fox during a storm. She spent only five seconds like that but during that time, she realized what he meant. She realized she was a god.

She continued to roam the world, helping out where she could with her newfound abilities. When Vix heard about holy high from a particularly sneaky fox, she had to go.

She wondered who she would meet. After all, a fox needs its skulk...


Thanks for giving me a chance! Sorry the background's kinda... long... but if you need me to change anything, i will! :D

Background is not too long at all. I don’t see any issues, though your character is almost…underpowered? As a rogue-type god she works perfectly, if that’s the intention.

Denied, I check multiple sources and including typing the greek god of foxes and nothing says the Teumessian fox is a god. Just a giant mythological man eating fox used by the gods to punish mortals that was turned into stone and later a constellation. If you have some proof that Teumessian fox is a god then link it.

I suggest if you are determined to have a char been the child of a fox god. Then I suggest going with Inari Ōkami of the Japanese pantheon since they are the god of fertility, rice, tea, sake, of agriculture, industry and most importantly foxes.

Literally typed Teumessian Fox Greek Mythology:
https://www.greekmythology.com/Myths/Cr ... n_fox.html

Literally no problem with this character being the parent. Again, the Pleiades. Absolutely nothing wrong with the app except maybe a need to add some sort of offensive power.
