Hey-Hey, this looks neat. Any chance I could play just a hero that's unaffiliated for a while instead of a demigod? I wouldn't expect to get any actual benefits until I got a god to pump them up.

The problem with that is that we sometimes do timeskips of, what is it? A few hundred years? You need the immortality from being a hero to survive those turn timeskips. Beside as far as I know it, the only way of becoming a hero is through a God (or demi-god?).
