Hogwarts RPG Name:
Kendra Phillips
Seventh Year
Default ••KA: RPotW•• ->It's All Greek to Me!





Dumbledore has decided that it would be best for the seventh years to understand other cultures and their belief system. Some of the students regard this as ridiculous, whereas the rest believe this would be very interesting. Dumbledore is personally teaching this class and has started with Greek Mythology.

Now, Hermione being Hermione decided to do some extra research on the subject and gained access to the Restricted Section of the library. Browsing the books, she finds a particular spell that she doesn’t understand. Still, she mutters in under her breath and it is Ancient Greek that she is speaking.

At that same time, a group of teenagers suddenly appear on the grounds of Hogwarts. They turn out to be Olympian gods and goddesses in teenage form. The spell that Hermione used caused them to come back in the form of the spell-caster, ergo Hermione is 17 and therefore so are they.

Dumbledore decides that this is an excellent series of events and allows the Greeks to stay at Hogwarts and help with the project. However, friendships and relationships are formed, and what happens when the project ends and the Greeks have to go back to their own time? Do any of them stay? Or do they hate it that much, they want to leave as soon as they have arrived?

Hera - Lomadia
Athena - Harry and Ginny???
Artemis - Lexia_Black
Aphrodite - Superwoman!
Persephone - Alohomora
Selene - Lexia_Black
Airlia Lynn Foncesca - XxRockStarxX



Okay, so I may have ignored the part where some of these gods and goddesses are family (father and sons, mothers and daughters, siblings) but it would have complicated things, a lot.

Once I have said that you can be a part, I will PM a small bio of what you are the god/goddess of if you’re a Greek, but please remember that your power is limited because you’re only 17, so whatever you do, don’t destroy the planet before the RP is over. Thanks.

The usual quibbles:
dnt typ lik dis, I will ask you to leave.
Posting more than one sentence, come on, your character can’t be that shallow.
And please stay with this, if you want to leave that’s fine, just let me know.

Name: Hera
Age: 17
Goddess: Of women and marriage and of the sky and starry heavens.
Appearance:
Personality: Hera likes to take charge of everything as she used to be Queen of the Gods, now that she’s 17 again, she just likes being Queen Bee. She takes her responsibilities of being goddess of women and marriage very seriously, and although she may seem stuck up, she gives great advice to the other goddesses as well as mortals. Deep inside, Hera is a nice girl, but with a bad girl image to portray her higher calling of being Queen. She is intelligent, witty, and can give as good as she gets. However, if she gets angry...well, let’s just say that the starry heaven doesn’t normally look quite so heavenly.
Likes: Good food, conversation, and letting everyone know who is boss.
Dislikes: Her ‘king’ Zeus, being told what to do, and people ignoring her.
Distinguishing feature: She has a lion tattoo on her hip bone.
Font Colour: Dark Cyan my default colour.

Okayy thanks!

Here is her bio:

Name: Athena
Age: 17
Goddess: of wisdom and war
Apperance:


Personality: Athena is known to be strong and loyal to her own self. She is the goddess of Athens and is known to be intellligent and wise. But being 17 once more has made her feel a bit insecure...others seem to feel equal to her, which is something she is not used too.
Athena has the ability to turn mean when she has to, her temper is known to not be too bad but it is there.
The most used expression to describe her is "the bright eyed".
Likes: Being in control at times and enjoys attention.
Dislikes: People being rude and disrespectful towards her.
Font Color: Purple

Oh how this brings back memories of dressing up as a goddess for social studies! I was Artemis.
Very interesting plot. Could I take Persephone, another goddess that's not on the list?


Name: Persephone
Age: 17
God of: the Underworld,
Appearance: beautiful {Picture updated later.}
-Hair: Long, deep red, slightly curly and a little frizzy
-Eyes: deep brown
Brief History: One day, when Persephone was about 15 years old, she was picking flowers. She had started to mature, and she was stunningly beautiful: so much, that Hades decided to abduct her for himself. He rose up into the field where she was and took her back down to the Underworld with him, making her the Queen of the Underworld. She did not like being the Queen of the Underworld, since she hated the underworld and Hades for comdeming her there, but she couldn't show it.

Her mother was so overcome with grief that she begged Hades to let her go, which he did grudgingly. But before he did, he gave Persephone a pomegranate. Whe she ate it, she was bound to the Underworld. She was able to live above ground with her family and friends for two-thirds of the year, but had to return back down with Hades for the remaining third, the winter.

Personality: There are two parts to Persephone's split personality: her usual sweet, soft spoken, caring side, and the dark side. Her 'dark side' usually comes out in the winter, having to do with her having to return to live in the undeworld. She hates herself for this side of her, but she can't control it. She tries though.
Likes: her friends, flowers, her home
Dislikes: pomegranates, the "dark side" of her personality, the Underworld
Distinguishing feature: her hair and eyes
Font Colour:
DarkRed

I know that Selene is kind of linked with Artemis, but I was wondering if I could play her seperately.

Name: Zeus.
Age: 17.
God of: Of sky and thunder.
Appearance/Picture:
Personality:COLOR]As the king of of the gods, Zeus is used to be respected as the most superiour god,ans though now that he is in a body of a seventeen year old that hasn't changed he can be quite easy to be around with, usually he tries to have fun and enjoy this new existence in a new world but is surely not someone you want to have an argument with as his temper can be fierce when angered.

Though he tries to enjoy this new situation the most that he can, enjoying the attention that can get in a school with this many students and even flirting with many girls as he is around that age.

Yet there is only one woman that he wants and is deeply in love with his Hera and though he is much too proad tha admit it openly, most of all the flirting he does and the other things he does to get attention is to get an reaction from her, as she has become much more distant towards him in this new life of theirs.
Likes:Being treated in a way worthy of king like him, getting attention and the fact that doesn't has the deal with as much responsibilty as before.
Dislikes:That the world has changed so much and the way his relationship with Hera is now.
Distinguishing feature:Scar near his right eye.
Font Colour:Indigo.

Heya can I play Ginny please?

EDIT:
Name: Ginny Weasley
Age: 16
House: Gryffindor
Appearance: (will post asap but I assume you all know what she looks like!)
Personality: Ginny is a girl who sums up the phrase 'more than meets the eye'. She may seem like a delicate young girl but she has a fiery character and will not back down in an arguement. She has no problem telling boys or girls what she thinks of them and isn't afraid of physical confrontation. Being brought up with six older brothers has made her slightly tomboyish and she's as mad about Quidditch as her brother Charlie is about dragons. Ginny is a good friend and is always willing to listen to people's problems. Her bright and sunny attitude to everything makes her well-liked among her peers and, unknown to her, she has caught the eye of more than one guy before.
Likes: QUIDDITCH! Spending time with her family and just enjoying herself
Dislikes: Discrimanation, rainy days and the way the trio exclude her from things.
Distinguishing feature: Her flaming red hair and freckles.
Font Colour: Indigo

Name: Aphrodite
Age: 17
Goddess of: Love and beauty
Appearance/Picture:

Personality: Aphrodite is the girl that all the boys droll over. That one girl that all the others hate because she attracts all of the guys. However, she hates having all the guys follow her around, and she certainly doesn't want to be with one of them just becuse they like her looks. Being a teenager, for her, is quite stressful and she just wants to be treated like a normal girl, instead of her appearance getting in the way and is waing for that elusive guy who can prove to her that not all men have an over-abundance of testosterone.
Likes: the simple things in life, nice conversations, enjoying scenery, chocolate
Dislikes: People fawning over her all the time
Distinguishing feature: appearance
Font Colour: orange

Wow, you're really in need of some testosterone here. I'll play Hermes and Apollo, if you'd like.

Could I take one of the two? Either Hermes, or Apollo, I mean. I understand and it's absolutely okay if I don't get any [Jade asked first], but I just thought I'd ask.

Very interesting plot, by the way.

Well, I really, really want Hermes. I could work Hermes and Ares if you want Apollo? If it's okay with the almighty.

Superwoman! - Thank you.

Clockcollector would like to be Ares, so if Jade Young plays Hermes and SenoritaMaxie plays Apollo, I think that would suit everyone, I hope! If that's okay, post bios and I'll add you to the first post.

Sabrina_Snape - Yes you can, post a bio for her, just so everyone knows, lol.
