[OnlyThePie]

Oh my lord this got out of hand haha. But anyway, I'm trying to decide whether I want to do a second character, maybe Nike (nik-eh, the REAL pronunciation), the greek goddess of Victory.

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

Anyone have Ra?

[ActRaiserTheReturned]

I'm thinking of Cernunnos actually.

Anywho, I'm trying to think of an occupation for Hermes. Is messenger/courier too obvious and stupid? My other option is paramedic because of reasons.

He was also a thief, so...something to do with that might work.

|Godly Appearance|

The demon wolf stands thousands of feet tall, his massive paws able to destroy trees with a swat and a single tooth longer than a man. Fenrir possesses coarse, shaggy brown and black hair that is tangled and mussed every which way. His jaw stretches to impossible lengths, his long elongated teeth connected with thick, frothy saliva. A long, squirming prehensile tongue lolls from his mouth, slobbering with a blood lust echoing in his beedy amber eyes. Miscellaneous organsims have begun to grow on his body, moss greening his teeth at the gums and mold began growing in the corners of his eyes. A huge halberd is pressed into his mouth, the point of the sword digging into a yellow, infected wound where insects and maggots crawl. The hilt of the sword is shoved into the softness of the roof of his mouth, surrounding by a black, painful bruising. Large, thick cobwebs have formed in his ears, with hundreds and thousands of spiders crawling around in their new, permanent home. Pure white bone barely peeks out from his fur, glimpses only seen through his rippling hair and seemingly bulky muscles. Spit and blood mix together, gathering in his mouth until it spills to the floor and his claws are jagged and rotting, holes eating away at the once sharp weapons. A thin stark red ribbon is wrapped tightly around his legs, tying them together, where he is forced to lay until free. The circulation has nearly been cut off by gleipnir, his ribbon-entrapment, and if anyone were to peer at the skin clinging to bone and exposed muscle beneath his fur, they would see a blue-grey hueness that rivals the dead half of Hel.

|Earthly Appearance|

Fenrir forsaked his monstrous wolf form for a more human one in order to fit into human society. He is most known for his curly hair that ends at the nape of his neck and is usually pushed back from his forehead - it tends to appear oily, no matter how much he washes it, and the grease tends to drive him crazy. He's considered handsome by most that he comes across, especially with his apathetic piercing eyes, sharp chin features with respectable cheekbones, and the perfect set of lips which are not too thick and not too thin. When amused, he has a tendency to smirk and furrow his eyebrows, causing a crease in his forehead, but adds to his enigmatic and dangerous allure. It is not so rare for him to fully laugh, and when he does, it reveals prominent two front teeth with a miniscule gap in between and a villianous-esque shape of his grin. He's of average height, standing at six feet, with a lean yet muscled body. He does have a bit of body hair on his chest and he tends to have stubble over his chin, remnants of his wolfish coat. Another example of evidence left after his fall from the Demon Wolf, is a scar on his tongue as well as slightly cracked nails. He has a tattoo on his shoulder, featuring a wolf staring at the viewer through the tears in his bicep flesh; one half of the wolves is white, and the other is black - the two wolves represent his two sons, Skoll and Hati, for which he is extremely loyal to.

When it comes to his clothes, Fenrir tends towards the badboy, "I couldn't care less" line. He enjoys wearing hoodies and leather jackets with t-shirts, sometimes with lower necklines, or plaid shirts, with simple jeans and boots. He does, however, wear his favorite brown fingerless gloves and several silver rings on his fingers. Due to having spent most of his human life in Ireland, Fenrir has an Irish accent that he is quite proud of and believes makes his prospective lovers swoon on their feet. He hates wearing heavy cologne, but will spritz a bit on here and there when he sees fit. It is often hard to tell what Fenrir is thinking, though his face isn't passive and expresses his emotions, it often appears rapidly and is hard to analyze as one emotion or the other.

|Personality|

What kind of person is your character? What are their motivations? How do they interact with people around them? Also include things like how they’ve changed ever since they’ve transitioned into mortal life. Have they gotten kinder? Meaner? Etc
Be sure to write in flaws! Absolutely no Mary Sues/Gary Stus

|Family|

Hati - Fenrir's eldest son; he chased after the moon god, Mani, for most of his life; whenever he almost caught him, the Shinto moon god cut off his left hand; when it was time to give up their powers, Hati chose to remain as a wolf and Fenrir now takes care of him as a wolfdog; because he is a regular dog rather than a god, he doesn't remember his life as a god or he doesn't possess the high order thinking that he had before

Skoll - Skoll is Fenrir's younger son; he used to chase Sol until Fenrir supposedly ate her; when it was time to give up their godly abilities, Skoll chose to remain as a canine to be with his brother and protect him now that he was missing a limb; because he is a wolfdog now, Fenrir takes care of him at his house and pretends that he is his pet; because of his lack of high order thinking, he doesn't remember his life as a dog

Jormungand - Fenrir's older brother. They're on fine terms, visiting each other here and then - he's an underwater photographer now. Jormungand sort of knows that Fenrir is up to something, as Fenrir isn't exactly trying to hide it, but he rather his brother not know the specifics

|History|

Obviously a gloss on what they’ve done in human history since coming into existence. Must include what they were known for, how they reacted to the agreement to give up their powers, and what they have done since as a pseudo-mortal.

|Opinion on Mortals|

What do they think about other mortals, who have no knowledge of the gods? What do they think about being one of them – sort of?

|Theme Song|

Novocaine – Fall Out Boy
<sub>"This is a black, black ski mask song
So put all of your anger on
In the truly gruesome do we trust
I will always land on you like a sucker punch

Singing I am your worst, I am your worst nightmare
I am your worst, I am your worst nightmare

If you knew, knew what the bluebirds sang at you,
You would never sing along
Cast them out cause this is our culture
These new flocks are nothing but vultures

Because they took our love and they filled it up
Filled it up with Novocaine and now I’m just numb
Now I’m just numb
And don't mind me, I’m just a son of a gun
So don’t stop, don’t stop until your heart goes numb
Now I’m just numb
I don’t feel a thing for you”</sub>

|Mortal Skills/Abilities|

What skills have they picked up that lie outside the realm of their godly abilities? Also, what residual effects do their powers have on mortals? Aphrodite being attractive, Apollo being a great guitar player and so on.

|Immortal Skills/Abilities|

While the deities begin to regain their powers, slowly, what is it that your character will be able to do/how can they influence the world in supernatural ways? Bear in mind these will be weakened forms to begin with. Eg. Zeus can’t reign down thunder and murder entire cities, but he can probably cast it at one person; Hermes can run at incredible speed, but not to the extent he could as a God...

|Godly Appearance|

As the goddess of the underworld, Hel was most known for her coldness. Not a cold personality, but a cold appearance of gaunt beauty withering away. The only thing that softened her weary appearance was her attractive smile. While it wasn't the most wide, it was a subtle, graceful smile that had a way of making eyes look soulful and empathetic. Her hair was the next more notable; it was a thick nest of flouncing, glossy brown curls that fell to her waist. She usually kept it twisted into a half-updo with stray curls framing her face; long, diamond-encrusted barrettes followed the length and curve of the semi-French braided locks. Hel was tall and slim, with not much curves to boast for, but a quiet, commanding elegance that brought attention to her whenever she walked in. Her skin was a sickly white, with every dip and nook enhanced with prominent shadows, making her face appear gaunt and deprived. Her eyes were a light, sky blue, that seemed to have such a profound depth that one could swim in them. Hel's makeup was kept simple: a dark red lipstick applied aptly to every curve of her lips, enhancing the thickness; her eyes were shadowed with brown and thick, black eyelashes made her small eyes appear bigger. However, this wasn't what disgusted her patrons or fellow gods and made her a pariah to be avoided. Half of her body was composed of dying, stretching skin with thick, post-mortem wrinkles. The lid of her eye was missing and the full, glassy white orb could be seen portruding from the round eye socket. Her arm was skeletal and skinny, mere flesh clinging to bone with no muscle in between and blue veins pulsed visibly up and down her arm.

To distract from her ugly half, Hel often wore an Empire, layered dress that was floor length and accentuated her graceful, slim body. The sleeves were connected to the dress, as if to appear as a shawl, with a slit from her underarm all the way down; the sleeves fell into the length of the dress. The boat neck emphasized her height and the thinness of her neck. The most impressive aspect of her peach-tan dress was the sown-in diamonds that clustered around the top gradually lessening as they travelled downwards; pure gold lace was embroidered in streaming lines to add depth to the dress. Hel hated to wear shoes, and instead wore lacy embroidery on her feet, secured with silk ribbons.

|Earthly Appearance|

How would they appear as a mortal from day to day life? What are their striking features? At least one solid paragraph.

@HalfOfLancelotAlright, here's the CS for Nike:

Nike

Nike

Goddess of Victory

---

Basic Profile

|Name|

Nike

|Alias(es)|

Nike (Greek), Victoria(Roman), Nicole Harrow(Mortal)

|Gender|

Female

|Sexuality|

Heterosexual

|Relationship Status|

Single

|Pantheon/Faith|

She prefers Greek, but is technically also Roman.

|Occupation|

Nicole is an athletic trainer, and in her last "life" was an Olympic coach. She mainly just trains regular people now, either in running, weight lifting, yoga, or swimming. She owns the small buisness, Win Big!

---

---

Appearance

|Godly Appearance|

Reference Nike's Wing's and Sword both traditionally represent victory. Those wielding the sword are supposedly impossible to defeat at anything, whether it actually involves the sword or not, though this effect does not guarantee anything with non-mortals.

|Earthly Appearance|

Nicole is attractive, not nearly as beautiful as Aphrodite or Persephone, but still very pretty. Nicole's long dark hair almost always hangs down, framing her face, and she only puts it up in an elaborate manner for fancy events. She has striking blue eyes, which often catch the light, and some people say they see flashes of gold when looking into them. Nicole stands a taller 5' 7", and her form is long, lithe, and well muscled. Nicole's mouth is full and pleasant, and a row of brilliant white teeth are often the subject of comment.

---

---

Who Am I?

|Personality|

Nicole is driven, vibrant, and endearing. She will absolutely refuse to give up, at anything and everything. At the same time, she's happy, friendly, and bouncy (excited?). She loves helping other people almost as much as she loves helping herself. Nicole tries as hard as she can to engage others, rather than talk about herself, in order to get people to open up to her. She desperately wants friends and for people to like her, and she sometimes comes on too strong in her efforts. Nicole loves her daughter Alexa more than anything in the world, and would do anything for the girl.

Nicole is also rather apologetic, convinced that every time something goes wrong, it must have been her fault for not doing something correctly. Her stubbornness is often and issue, even the most simple things become a challenge if she doesn't get them right the first time. Everything must be perfect, and she must succeed. It often drives others to give up on helping her, which both infuriates her and pushes her to try harder. Often, she'll even try to press others to succeed, even if they don't think they will. It is both a blessing and a curse.

|Family|

-Sisters Krata, Bia, and Zelus
-Adopted daughter Alexa, 15

|Strengths|

• Driven
• Friendly
• Athletic
• Supportive
• Loyal

|Weaknesses|

• Stubborn
• Lonely (Despite her many friends)
• Apologetic
• Self-defeating
• Vengeful

|Likes|

• Working Out
• Traveling
• Cake
• Movies (Action or cheesy rom-com)
• Oranges (and associated products)

|Dislikes

• Failure
• Laziness
• Pessimists
• Steroids
• Cheating
• Artichokes
• Snobs
• Spiders

|History|

Born from a Titan and a Goddess, Nike as a goddess was mighty, fearless, and strong. She championed the cause of the Olympian gods, and enamored their soldiers with strength, and rewarded them for their victories. Anywhere she went on the battlefield, success and glory followed. And then the Romans came. They diminished her, she was still valued, but she wasn't as important. But what she hated was that the Romans had no qualms about fighting dirty, and their concept of honor was not for each man, but for the soldier. She did her job, but she had lost the sense of greatness associated with it.

When the time came to surrender their powers, Nike gave in, one of the few times she did so without much of a struggle. She didn't love her job anymore. Once the gods had turned in their hats, she left. Disappeared into the world, hiding from the other gods. She didn't champion battles, none of the victories of the great powers were part of her assistance. She had no interest in the military. Instead, she explored the earth, looking for amazing things, victories of nature. And then, she studied biology, interested in how nature had accomplished these feats. Every time she "died" she would go back and learn it all again. It started with plants and animals, and then once Darwin was through, just animals. And then mortal anatomy. Which led her to healthcare, to see victories against disease. And all the way, she learned more about the mortals she had so long championed from afar.

Following the horrors of the second world war, Nicole finally settled down. She tried teaching, but found that without a professorship, she didn't enjoy it enough. She began to train people, and eventually it came to Olympians. She lived in Colorado training Americans, and in London training Englishmen. Then, she decided she would achieve a victory of her own, raising a child. So she adopted a girl, technically Russian. She moved to San Francisco, and began to raise the sweet little child. Nicole loved every second of it. Sending Alexa to the first day of school was one of the hardest things she ever did. She feels that Alexa is her greatest victory.

|Opinion on Mortals|

Nicole is enamored with Mortals. She finds them incredible, capable of so many great things. She loves them much more than she loves any of the gods, who she sees as greedy, arrogant, and dangerous.

|Theme Song|

Hey There Delilah – The Plain White T's
_{”Delilah, I can promise you
That by the time that we get through
The world will never ever be the same
And you're to blame”}

|Favorite Myth|

Odysseus' final victory against his wife's suitors

Mortal vs. Immortal

|Mortal Skills/Abilities|

Nicole is a master biologist, given all her time studying. She's also incredibly athletic from her more recent jobs, and she's probably capable of running a marathon or an iron man, though it's not really her thing. Nicole knows everything there is to know about travel at this point, given she only settled down 14 years ago, and spent the majority of the last 1500 years traveling the earth. Nicole also plays the flute, though she hasn't picked it up in ages.

|Immortal Skills/Abilities|

Currently, Nicole can only inspire people to victory, giving them a sense that they will be able to win. As her powers return, she will be able to increase the odds or even ensure victory in mortals, and at least give immortals a boost to their chances. She cannot guaratnee the impossible though, the more likely the person was to originally be able to accomplish something, the easier it is for her to boost their chances.
Currently, Nicole has no wings, the only thing she misses from being a goddess. As her powers grow, so will her wings, though she'll be able to hide them. She will not be able to achieve full, wild, flight until she is at almost full strength, though she may be able to hover and glide sooner.

@Undine

What do you think of Benzaiten and Persephone doing some sort of charity gala together? Like Benz brings in local artists and Seph brings shelter pets in, the artists paint/sculpt/draw the pets, then auction the art while Seph sets up adoptions for the pets via the artists or art buyers/donors. It could be an annual thing they do together. It could be a huge social event that all the gods attend. We could make it very formal and dramatic. A masquerade would be fun. But I may be getting ahead of myself, lol.

Edit: @Apokalipse Your dog trainer could auction lessons.

That sounds really fun :D

Although they likely live in different countries so it might be a bit tricky--but there's always video chatting and such, and they could hold it in the same place every year :)

@Undine

Persephone is a very free, nomadic spirit, so traveling wherever/whenever isn't abnormal for her. Plus, as CEO of her company, its likely that she has vacation homes in many areas. *shrug*
