VERTIGO IS OPEN!

[bruceswaynes]

Myths: Ares - The Greek god of war. He is one of the Twelve Olympians, and the son of Zeus and Hera. In Greek literature, he often represents the physical or violent and untamed aspect of war. In appearance, Ares was handsome and cruel. He is often depicted carrying a bloodstained spear.

ANUBIS (/əˈnuːbᵻs/ or /əˈnjuːbᵻs/ )  ;  is the Egyptian God associated with mummification.  Though once the foremost god of the underworld, over time he became specifically tasked with the process of embalming and funeral rites.  Being the adoptive son of Osiris, it is he who preforms the act of the weighing of the heart upon one’s entrance into the land of the dead, and thus determining the fate of the deceased.  One of Anubis’s most notable tasks was the guiding of souls into the afterlife, and in this the abandoning of those deemed guilty to Ammit.  His name is derived from the same root as the word for “royal child”, though it can also be determined to be closely related to the term for  “ to  d e c a y .”

hello! could i reserve cu chulainn & timur simakov, for yana? thanks!

hey yana! we discussed this, and we're wondering if you could use another face more representative of the mythology? cu chulainn is of irish/scottish origins. as far as we're aware, timur is russian and not outwardly passable as irish/scottish either. we're trying to be flexible and balance representation at the same time, so anyone a little closer to the origins would be great.

★ opening date ★

As everyone has been anticipating, we have our opening date! Friday, February 5th @ 6PM PST/9PM EST. Thanks to everyone for being patient and sticking with us! We’ll be releasing a preview of the mini profile soon! In addition, if there is interest we will do a smol character development contest for an early link to the site cough cough.

star wars characters + greek deities

[bbirdme]

quick question, are roman/greek deities going to be considered the same? i'm sorry if anyone has already asked this

yes! since there’s so much overlap between roman and greek deities, we will be considering them one and the same, so zeus/jupiter, ares/mars, etc will be considered together.
