I can't believe I've stuck myself with three girls for all of next year who think screaming, shrieking and making sex noises consists of banter. -_-

Posts will be delayed until wednesday, my dudes. Got some uni wori to catch up on.
Howdy all! I figured it was about time I spruced up my bio section. Or, y'know. Wrote something in it other than WIP.
So! Things to know about my mostly-good self:
I'm a 20 year old female, hailing from a not-so-small town in the north east of England. I'm currently about a third through my second year at Uni, and have made some awesome friends there so far. I also debate. That's always fun - arguing has always been an annoying trait (for others, that is) of mine, so putting it into something one can have on their CV is great. The competitions are super fun too. Anyway, roleplaying.
If you've known me for a short or long while, you'll likely know what an absolute slut for fantasy I am. High fantasy to low, I love those kind of roleplays and will nearly always be interested in new ones that crop up. The same applies for Sci-Fi, but at the moment, I'm not feeling inspiration for a good ol' spacefaring RP. Gotta get the Mass Effect out again, get me craving some Turian booty again. However, I won't go for only these ones. SoL can interest me if they're run properly, alongside horror, mystery, romance, etc. I won't ignore something simply because it doesn't have magic or flying bears in it or something. As for level, I like to consider my writing high-casual to low-advanced. Hopefully others will agree with me on that one, haha. Anyway, here's a list of specific fandoms I enjoy, kind of in order of preference:
Lord of the Rings Universe (Including The Hobbit)
Dragon Age series
Elder Scrolls
Mass Effect Trilogy
Star Trek (I'd love a Discovery one right now!)
Star Wars (Specifically the time around the Prequels; while I shan't get into the whole Prequel/Original war on which is better, roleplaying makes for more excitement in the prequel era. Clone Wars guys, c'mon!)
Buffy the Vampire Slayer
Fringe
Greek Mythology (PJO, but with the amount of Camp Half-Blood roleplays that have come and gone, I'd prefer one based more on the Original Mythologies)
Norse Mythology
Marvel
Left 4 Dead
The Walking Dead (Or any Post-Apocalypse Roleplay, really.)
'A Song of Ice and Fire' Series
House of Night Series
True Blood
Deus Ex
Blood Ties
The Vampire Diaries (I admittedly abandoned the show and books when the plot got too boring, but I still like the Universe. I'd join a roleplay based in it, if it had original characters, that is.)
Pacific Rim
Aaannndd I'll stop the list here before I go on forever. Basically there's a lot, particularly in the realm of fantasy. Hit me up if you want me in your roleplay, of if you'd like to do a 1x1 based around any of those areas, or even some additional ones if you think I'd be interested. I love original plots and Universes too, especially if they're done well.
These issues would have been addressed when the CS was created, along with the OOC. As I've said, it is up to you as to whether or not your character has developed powers at the point of the IC starting, and it is up to you how they deal with it; I also made it quite clear that the first time the characters will be aware of Gods existing will be when they meet them for the first time, in the IC.
I put emphasis on a lack of genetic coding from the Gods so that people aren't constricted in what their characters look like - especially ethnicity. Otherwise it would just be mostly white people everywhere, and that doesn't make for a very diverse roleplay.
As I am wanting this roleplay to have some modicum of normality when it comes to mortals, if one writer did decide to give their character non-human or fantastical physical traits, it would cause quite a ruckus among normal little earthlings. If one baby pops out with wings or something because their Godly parent had that, they would probably be seized by the government of whatever country they were born in to find out why this had happened - scientific experimentation and a lot of hushing up about the birth would then proceed - this is if the baby isn't just killed out right in a panic. So, unless that's a backstory you'd like to give your character, yes - normal looking humans would be lovely. In addition to this, your character would still be unaware they have a Godly parent.
I am yet to make the CS, but faceclaims will be used, yes. Real life only - no drawings or cartoons.
I say again - whether the character comes to the conclusion of Gods or not, they have no proof.
As for your second point, a God does not pass along any genetics to their child. How could they? Children of Anubis would be running around with deformed, monstrous half human half dog heads. And I'm pretty sure if Odin got the hots for someone outside of Scandinavia he'd chase em down, regardless of the country they originate from. Gods are powerful - they can do that.
Yes, as stated in the OOC, the Demi-Gods may be aware of supernatural abilities (it is up to you as the writer to decide whether that is the case or not); however, whether they come to the conclusion of divine intervention or not, there will be no proof. Their parent won't pop up all of a sudden to tell them how awesome immortality is or whatever, nor will their mortal parent be aware of it. God shows up, does the deed, leaves mortal with baby.
All this military and science talk and I'm just the Security gal.
"I ain't breaking up your bitch-ass fights, sort it out yourselves." "CHIEF THEY'RE BREAKING THE BRIDGE APART." "Hey! I don't get involved in people's personal issues!" *red alert begins blaring* "Keep it clean guys, I don't want to see any hair pulling."
I should have probably mentioned this in the OP - reservations aren't necessary. In case you didn't notice the Gods were total sluts so it's very likely they all have a lot of kids. I'll only put a cap on something of the numbers get too ridiculous.
Unsure if I'll allow Mania - she was only Goddess of insanity and the dead in Roman mythology - in Greek, she was a spirit, not a Goddess. However, Dionysus had ties with madness, if you'd like him.
