Although she was not an Olympian, she resided on Mount Olympus, acting as cupbearer to the Gods - serving them nectar and ambrosia. She was the keeper of the fountain of youth and it is because of this that Hebe had both the ability to restore youth to mortals, as well as being responsible for keeping the gods eternally young. Hebe was said to personify the spirit of youth, which often prompted jealousy amongst the other gods & goddesses. She was a diligent daughter, performing tasks such as drawing baths for her brother Ares and helping Hera enter her chariot. Hebe would also often act as an attendant to her sister Aphrodite.[/quote][/indent][/indent] [center][color=D87093][u] 𝗛𝗜𝗦𝗧𝗢𝗥𝗬 [/u][/color][/center] [indent][indent][quote] If Hebe were honest, before The Colossus she'd never really considered what it would be like to leave Mount Olympus. Her life had been one of duty and diligence. She did as her parents asked and although it was fun to hear stories from her siblings, she figured that it wasn't her place to do anything but the role she'd been allotted. Yet, this was all thrown into complete disarray when they were made earthbound and for the first few decades, Hebe tried to simply keep out of the way, shocked by the actions of the mortals. Sticking to the familiar presence of her parents was comforting and safe, but even she eventually began to get bored. [i]Very bored.[/i] She saw the younger mortals beginning to strive for their own freedom and the goddess figured that if they could do it, so could she. Making moves to strike out on her own, at first she would bounce quickly back to her family, scared to be alone for too long. However eventually she began to spend more and more time apart from them. For the last century, Hebe has rarely been seen by the other gods. With the advent of women's rights, came a new and improved goddess. She had changed; a far call from the girl who was once content with simply being the cupbearer for the greek pantheon. The following decades (apart from those with the wars...Hebe hated those) were great...the roaring twenties, the free-loving sixties, the eclectic eighties. She loved it all. As the personification of youth, Hebe liked to partake in anything that encouraged this. Whether it be attending a fun party, dragging her friends on some impromptu adventure, breaking rules just for the sake of it... Hebe enjoyed exploring all that being young had to offer and she encouraged mortals to do the same. When they were forced to move to Washington DC, Hebe decided to attend Georgetown University and as was par for the course, joined a sorority. It was soon after, at one particularly lively frat party, that she met Chadwick. Sure he was a bit up himself but he was funny & nice & well...there. The two instantly hit it off and Hebe (somewhat naively) thought she was in love. She hadn't experienced love before but she was pretty certain that's what it was...sort of. Regardless, the two spent all of their time together. She even met his parents (unsurprisingly she did not introduce him to [i]hers[/I]) and practically lived in his dorm. For several months they were happy and Hebe even began to consider telling him the truth of her immortality. [hider=TW mentions of assault] However Chadwick was under a lot of pressure from his parents to perform well at school...his appetite for parties and stupidity being reflected in his poor grades. Frustrated, he began to take it out on Hebe. He always seemed to be angry at her for something, and though she tried her best to console him, nothing worked. He made her feel guilty and she didn't dare leave him, choosing instead to put up with his foul temper. Hebe soon sunk into something akin to depression, barely attending her classes and isolating herself from her friends. She daren't reach out to the other gods for help, scared they would laugh at her for being afraid of a mortal. And she probably would've put up with this for a long time...if it weren't for that night. As had become habit, Chad came home drunk. It was practically a daily ritual but Hebe simply ignored him the best she could. However, on this particular night he tried to force himself upon her despite her protests. Horrified...terrified, Hebe managed to get away, but it left behind a shadow that she could never forget.[/hider] Luckily for her, The Colossus moved a few weeks after and she was able to run away to the safety of Seattle. It took her a couple of years, but Hebe was eventually able to find her feet again. She signed up for a course in Anthropology at the University and even dared to join a sorority once more (Alpha Delta Pi to be specific). Although she will never forget what happened, she has managed to settle in well and has a good group of friends. She still keeps her distance from the other gods, barely having seen any of them since the move. [/quote][/indent][/indent][/hider]
