The gods are ever restless.

Zeus leads his family to war in Greece, Ra orders his confidants to defend the realms of Egypt and the Nile, and in the north, a new pantheon of gods begins to rise to prominence. The ancestors worry that an inevitable clash is on the horizon and so those still living must steel themselves for the days to come. Yet, the heavens themselves are not quite the battlegrounds as one might imagine, as it is not the way of the gods to operate in such a direct manner. It is through heroes that the will of the gods is carried, that victory is won on the mortal realm rather than in the heavens or lands of the dead. 

It is in these few individuals that the gods would place their trust so that their interests sway the way they would desire. These heroes, monsters, or otherwise, shall win on the fields of honor or do the quests that their gods would set them upon. Promises of victory, revenge, riches all follow the words of the gods, who are certain that their chosen few would undoubtedly win them the day. Yet, the gods may know not that their chosen may have their desires and wishes on how this conflict will turn out. 

And so where is it that you side, mighty hero? What is it that you fight for and to what ends will you follow your god?

[b][u]Rules[/u][/b]

1. All forum rules apply to this RP, there are no exceptions to this.
2. This is a roleplay about heroes, not gods. As such, no God-Modding. Heroes are powerful and quick witted individuals, sure, but they are not perfect beings and as such can fall prey to the clutches of death and may, in fact, stay dead if they have no way of freeing themselves of such a status.
3. I am no stickler on timing for posts, real life happens and I can’t control that. However, I do ask that one tries to post within a reasonable time frame, but I understand if things come up. All I ask is that I am notified so that way no one is assumed that you are dropping from the roleplay.
4. This is an advanced roleplay. I expect posts that would fall under this category. Give me more than three, well-written paragraphs on a post and I will be fine. Also, remember the grammar check and all that jazz.

[b][u]Character Sheet[/u][/b]

[hider=Character Sheet]
[b]Name[/b]: The Hero’s name

[b]Gender[/b]: The Hero’s Gender. 
[b]Patron Deity[/b]: Which god supports you? 

[b]Appearance[/b]: What does your hero look like? How do they carry themselves? Do they have any scars? Do they hold any monstrous ancestry? Write out a paragraph or two to paint a picture of what your hero may look like. You may also add a picture.

[b]Personality[/b]: These are your character traits, their positives and negatives, their highs and lows, where they excel and what their flaws are. Remember that the heroes of old are human, and are seldom perfectly moral beings, capable of far more intensity than what any person should be capable. 

[b]Skills[/b]: What mundane skills is your hero good at? Are they a good hunter able to fashion together bone tools for their tasks? Perhaps a harp player who can also make some fine wine. 

[b]Blessings[/b]: What makes your heroes worthy of being a hero? Are they an excellent archer? A duelist of renown? Do they have a blessing that allows them to minorly control water? What is it that makes them a hero? Keep in mind that given that heroes may be demi-gods, their powers may not be exactly all encompassing, or anywhere near as powerful, like their parents. If you are a child of Poseidon, perhaps you inherited his excellent horse riding ability rather than control of the oceans.

[b]Background[/b]: The story of your hero’s life. What were they doing before the gods blessed them and brought them into the fold?
