As assumed by my username, I'm a pretty big fan of mythology. Not just Greek mythology, either - Slavic, Chinese, Shinto, Mayan, Egyptian, Norse ... I'm pretty much game for them all. Yeah, Greek has a special place in my heart but I've got a lot of love to give.

As for this roleplay, however, it would be following some sort of 'good golly, the world appears to be ending and it looks like despite how much we dislike each other, we might need to work together to save it because we our existence relies on the humans that worship us'. I mean, it's really easy for something like this to become wacky and comical, but I was kind of hoping for a serious, fleshed out RP that focused on the Gods, their relationships with each other - their history with each other, how to set their differences aside and work together. And I mean, some of these myths are pretty raw and bitter, so there would be a lot of bad blood between some. And I'd especially like to see, say, two Gods from different pantheons that are basically the Gods of the same things in a vehement rivalry, bitter and petty and jealous and lots of emotions and excuse you, Zeus, but I am Odin, I call the shots here, this is my realm, go back to Mount Olympus and Nu Wa, terribly offended (I created these humans, they are my children! Your titles are just for show. I am their mother).

The thing is, this entire idea needs a whole lot more fleshing out, and I can't possibly do it all by myself, especially oversee the actual roleplay when - if - it happens, so I was hoping to find one or two co-admins that are interested and willing enough to lend a kind hand and hours of their time. So. Any takers for a co-admin (or just anyone interested in general)?

That said, my two co-admins will probably take on a more dominant role than me. I am up to my eyes in shit and credit hours.

Note: This is reposted from the casual interest check section as I feel it may be more suited here, once fleshed out.
@Candibarr I did take a glance at your roleplay, as suggested, but - while it's nice - it's not exactly what I'm looking for. If anyone else that came here is more interested in yours, that's great! I'm just not one of them.

Considering my schedule, I won't be able to post that much either. In fact, I may bump this up to Advanced just because I want quality over quantity and, to be honest, I can't give as much quantity as I can quality right now.

Like I said, though, I'm going to need one or two co-admins to help me flesh things out and I'd like to see if there's a bit more interest before I try anything.

Edit:: I'm going to post an interest check in advanced, as well, just to be thorough.

If this isn't getting up off the ground I've half a mind to begin a Harvest Moon roleplay myself. I'm lacking in a steady RP at the moment with consistency.
Waaaait for me!

I'll have my CS up today. With the mix of real photos and 'anime' I'm not sure which to use for my appearance, but I guess I'll find one.
(I will rarely use Danish with Gertrude, but I figured she lived in Denmark so long a few words would still slip into her vocabulary sometimes. I'll always provide the translation.

min kære - my dear

ingen - no)

Matte lips, a dark shade of posy lifted up at the corners lightly, eyeing the Constable Macbeth saunter towards the two men under lidded eyes.Gertrude herself hadn't had much contact with the fumbling constable - she wasn't much for small talking with blue collars - but she surmised from the few encounters she did have with him that he was a kind man, if not bit incompetent at his job. Still, the population of Stratford liked him well enough, something that it seemed the two gentlemen did not, judging by their hesitant, mechanic replies. They either weren't a fan of the police, or a fan of anyone at all.

Gertrude brushed a strand of silky hair behind her ear. It was probably a bit of both. Their actions were familiar of the men Hamlet, and of late, her husband as well had been in company of. Not entirely honest, filthy rich and with a crooked grin to hide their crooked ways. Gertrude wrapped her fingers around the stick of the toffee apple, musing. It was generally best to look the other way when in company of such man. The constable should learn that.

Her musings were interrupted by the sound of someone taking the seat next to her on the bench, and Gertrude darted her eyes to the offender. The girl was unmistakably one Lavinia Andronicus - skittish demeanor, big hazel eyes and most notably, missing hand. Gertrude couldn't see it, but she knew it was there - everyone knew about Lavinia. Gertrude herself had been horrified by the act, but what could she have done? She knew more of the girl's father, Titus, than of the girl however. She had in fact enjoyed speaking to the man whenever she went to the butcher's shop, which by all accounts should have been done by her maid. Gertrude liked the fresh air, however, and the witty banter that the old man had provided. It was a shame he had cracked underneath the pressure of his daughter's attack.

"You're Titus's daughter, aren't you, min kære?" Gertrude murmured, delicately eyeing the young woman's grip on the bench they sat upon. "I used to buy my meats from your father. He was a good man. He still is, though perhaps a bit cracked. You can always glue together the broken, however." The elder woman was going to say more, but was distracted by the conversation going on behind her. Lips pursed, she rolled the toffee apple to the young woman sitting beside her and stood gracefully.

"Take it, darling. Something sweet to cheer you up." And then she walked over to the crowd of three whom had been behind Lavinia and her, tapping the constable on the shoulder lightly and flicking her eyes towards the other two men, steely grey hardening for a moment, as if a mother scolding her children, before focusing her attention on Macbeth.

"Constable! It's not very festive of you to be bothering these two lovely men on what is supposed to be such a cheerful night." Gertrude smiled softly. "Ingen, you should let them be. The commotion might upset dear Lavinia." And she tilted her heads towards the girl, as if to bring notice to her.
This is a great RP, but I'm not sure I can muster up enough creative juice for it.
I'll keep an eye on this.
Moi :)
Hmm. I'm thinking I might join this. Maybe.
