Gods Of War
What is it we really know about to Gods? Are they really a myth, or are they real?


Are they the creatures above, or do they lurk amongst us?


Can they love? Can they hate?

Indeed they love, they hate, they are real, they are the gods of our world, Plandisarian Kriptos. And what human know of these extrodinary creatures is little, so little they think they are unreal being from the ancient greeks thousand of years ago, but behold!
In our very world they lurk, in their own world inside ours.

In this world, the Gods often seem mannered, peaceful, but there is just as much drama, hatred, love, and betrayals as there are in our world.


This, my dear children, is the world, of the Gods Of War.



Available gods:


Aphrodite:

Birth and Family of Aphrodite

As her name implies, Aphrodite (aphro="foam"+dite="arisen"), was created from the foam of the crystal waters of Paphos in the fragrant island of Cyprus, when the Titan Cronos slew his father, the major Titan Ouranos, and threw then his genitals into the sea.
Aphrodite was married to the lame smith Hephaestus, who was the Olympian God of the Iron, but her heart was devoted to Ares, the God of War, with whom Aphrodite was having a passionate, but secret love affair. [ to this, i want you to know that the "love affair" appears to be one sided, since i looked and couldn't find anything on Ares ever loving her back, therefore there should be no mutual romance between the two.]

According to a myth, Aphrodite gave birth to Eros, the winged cupid of love and was often accompanied by him. Other children of Aphrodite were Hemeros, Pothos(desire), Phobos(fear), Demos, Harmonia and Rhodes [1].

Apollo:

Family Tree of Apollo

Apollo was born by the King of the Gods Zeus and the mortal Leto in the divine Greek island of Delos. He was the younger twin of Artemis, the goddess of the hunt.
Apollo and the Music

Apollo was the Greek god of the Music. He invented the lute(a plucked string instrument with a body shaped like a pear), but most popular he was for his playing the lyre, which was invented by Hermes, the messenger of the gods. Apollo excelled in important music contests, competing against Greek god Hermes and the Satyr Pan as well as other deities.

Ares:

Ares, the God of War

Ares, the Greek god of War, was the son of Zeus and Hera. The half-sister of Ares was Athena, the goddess of Wisdom and Skill. Athena also was a goddess of War but approached war solely for the purposes of justice.
Reputation of Ares

Just like his mother Hera, Ares had a very difficult character to deal with and was therefore rather unpopular among the other deities and mankind. For this reason, no Greek city wanted to have him as its patron. He often had conflicts and fights with Artemis, the goddess of the Hunt and also with his sister Athena, especially during the Trojan War.

Artemis:

Family of Artemis

Greek goddess Artemis was born in Mount Cynthus at the island of Delos in Greece as a daughter of Zeus, the Ruler of the Greek gods and the mortal Leto. Artemis' twin brother was Apollo, the god of the Sun, whereas Artemis' cult was connected with the Moon. She had been born before Apollo and had helped her mother Leto to give birth to her little brother.
Artemis, the Virgin Huntress

As a child, Artemis had asked from her father Zeus to remain an eternal virgin and therefore became one of the three Virgin Goddesses in Greek mythology. Artemis had absolute sovereignty over nature and was said to bring fertility to all places that worshipped her. Usually accompanied by Nymphs and Oceanids, Artemis loved to hunt with arrows dipped in poison.

Personality and Style of Dionysus

Dionysus was a god known for his lightheartness and always offered his help to anyone in need. He was therefore very popular among gods and mortals and many festivals were being held every year in his honor. Nevertheless, Dionysus was many times misunderstood.

Dionysus was one of the Olympian gods who actually did not live in Mount Olympus but was constantly travelling around the world together with Satyrs and Maenads in order to discover the secrets of winemaking.

Family Tree of Hephaestus

Hephaestus was the son of Zeus and Hera , although it was considered by some that he had been conceived prenuptially. Hephaestus was married to Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of Beauty, but unfortunately Aphrodite never devoted herself entirely to Hephaestus.
Hephaestus' Disability

Hephaestus was a very kind and loveable god, but was the only deity who was physically ugly and lame. When his mother Hera saw him for the first time, she was so frustrated that she took her son and threw him from Mount Olympus to the depths of the seas, causing a deformation to his leg. Hephaestus was finally rescued by two Nereids, Thetis and Eurynome, who raised him for nine years inside a cave, far away and hidden from his cruel mother.

Hera:

The Family of Hera

Hera was born by the Titans Cronus and Rhea and was one of the three sisters of Zeus and later on became his wife as well.
The royal wedding of Zeus and Hera was celebrated with exceptional splendour and the couple gave birth to four children; Eilithyia, the goddess who was protecting the childbirth, Ares, the Olympian god of war, Hebe, the goddess of youth and Hephaestus, the Olympian god of metallurgy. According to some beliefs, Hephaestus was born without the intervention of Zeus.
Hera's troubled marriage with Zeus

Although Hera was one of the fairest goddesses in Mount Olympus, Zeus was giving Hera plenty of reason to be suspicious and jealous; Hera therefore used to stay in high places in order to keep an eye on her husband's doings. There were times she would also interfering, causing harm to Zeus' mistresses, since Zeus himself was invincible.
The Creation of the Milky Way

Most of all, Hera was in conflict with the semi-god and hero Heracles, since he happened to be the son of her husband Zeus and a mortal woman.

The drops of the spurting milk became the Milky Way.

Hermes was the only Olympian god who was authorized to visit Heaven, Earth and also the Underworld and enjoyed this way popularity among all the Greek gods and spirits.
Hermes, the God of the Thieves

It is well known that Ancient Greeks endowed their gods with human weaknesses. Hermes, for instance, felt an irresistible impulse of stealing ever since his infancy and quickly developed as the god of the cheaters and the thieves.

Hestia:

*Poseidon:


Family of Poseidon

Poseidon, the Greek god of the Seas, was born by the major Titans Cronus and Rhea. He was an older brother of Zeus, the King of the gods.
Personality of Poseidon

Poseidon was considered to be the bad-tempered, moody and greedy god among the Olympians. Once insulted, he would revenge himself, like he did in the case of Odysseus, who brutally blinded his son, the Cyclopes Polyphemus .

*Zeus:

The Family of Zeus

Zeus was the last child of the Titans Cronus and Rhea and had five older brothers and sisters. All of them had been swallowed by their jealous father; however, Zeus managed to escape the menace and flee. Later on, he would revenge on his father and set his siblings free.
Zeus married his own sister Hera, the goddess of marriage and monogamy, but was giving her plenty of reasons to be jealous, since Zeus was renowned of his numerous love affairs. As a result, Zeus was the father of plenty of children.
Role and Responsibilities

Zeus had his golden throne on the highest summit of Mount Olympus and was respected and awed by all Gods and mortals. He was the "Lord of Justice", punishing anyone who lied or broke an oath, but was fair and always striving to keep a balance of all things.
Furthermore, Zeus was responsible for the weather and was shaping it according to his temper. When in high spirits, Zeus was blessing the world with fine weather; in case of bad mood, however, he would throw rain, winds, lightnings and thunderbolts to cause disaster to the mortals.

But even Zeus' powers had their limits, for, however powerful as he was, he had neither the right nor the ability to intervene the decisions of the Fates.

Amazons:


The Amazons received their name from the fact that they voluntarily removed their right breast in order to easily draw the bow and fight, leaving only the left breast to feed their children. During their fights, they were carrying half-moon shields and wielding spears and were usually wearing a chiton that left one shoulder bare fro activity.

Periodically, the Amazons mated with men from another tribe to produce children, but were in the end only keeping their female children, disregarding or mutilating any male ones.

The Amazons were a horde of passionate, skillful maiden warriors from the Black Sea. They supposedly descended from Ares, the god of War and the Naiad Harmony.

Fates:


of the Fates
Genealogy of the Fates

The Fates were among the eldest goddesses in ancient Greek mythology. The Fates were either daughters of Zeus, the Lord of the gods, and Themis, the goddess of justice, or were created by goddess Nyx without the intervention of man.
The three Fates: Clotho, Lachesis and Atropos

There were three Fates in Greek mythology: Clotho, Lachesis, and Atropos. Clotho, the spinner, was the youngest of the three Fates; she spun the thread of destiny with a distaff, determining the time of birth of an individual; Lachesis measured the thread length to determine the length of life; finally, cruel Atropos cut the thread of life, determining this way the time of death.
The Role of the Fates

The Fates (Moirae) were the spinners of the thread of life, determining the span of human life of every mortal from birth to death. No other god had the right or the means to alter their decisions.
The Fates were the personifications of destiny; nevertheless, no human could blame the fates, since there were times he was the only one responsible for his failures.

Your Role

Gods of war is a special academy where
Demi-gods, Gods, and other creatures can come
together to try and form that bond their nations have
had since, well, forever. And in this academy, locked away
tight, vacume sealed, locked with multiple air-tight doors
and nearly an unbreakable magic wall keeps safe the most
important things in all this world.

The weapons of the gods.

The weapons of the god include;

Zeus's Lightning bolt
Ares' sword, constantly dripping a deadly venom
Poseidon's Trident
Athena's shield
Hades' flame
Medusa's eye
Artemis' moonlight crystal of youth

All of these are special weapons, of course the
remaining are not trusted to the Academy's volt,
and the few gods not listed keep their most prized
weapon on hand constantly.

Your role is to join this academy, learn how to use
your abilities, your gifts, learn battle skills and combat,
and help find the weapons, WHEN, of course, they finally
go missing.




Please contact me if you have any questions of suggestions.
