where the Olympians have a lot history of being Greek business men or mafia or something. Zeus works at a very professional office job, Poseidons a retired fisherman who still sometimes does random work involving his brother, and Hades lives far away from everyone. Hera is Zeus’s stay at home wife who just does whatever the fuck she wants with Zeus’s money, and knows just how many affairs Zeus has had.
Aphrodite is a famous model and not related to them, married to Hephaestus but is always hooking up with Ares and everyone can tell they are a thing. Hephaestus knows, but is just too busy to care. He’s a mechanic/engineer, mainly making stuff that he can just sell. It’s not his passion really anymore, it’s just his job so he can make money. He’s like lower upper class, with Aphrodite also making her own money. They don’t divorce but clearly aren’t a good couple, and really don’t see each other that often.
Ares is a professional wrestler who doesn’t really do much wrestling anymore, just goes on interviews and goes to events and stuff to flex and show off, boast about his greatness. He’s also a war veteran. Hermes does a lot of stuff for Zeus, and is a postman. He’s pretty much a nepo baby. Has a simple job, but is rich with old money. Athena is a professional politician, who mainly deals with stuff involving war and sometimes does photography on the side. (Just because.)
Artemis is a professional archer, doing competitions and Olympics and such. Actually, I think maybe all of the family has done some Olympic sport at some point. Anyways, Artemis also trains young girls and encourages them to go into careers and be strong if that’s what they wanna do. Tells them they can do anything, and not let a man tell them what to do. Teaches them archery and such. Apollo is a singer and musician, who has lots of teen fan girls. He spends a lot of time partying and having fun. Has a penthouse apartment, and a studio. Does music, writing, art of all kinds. Dancing, gymnastics, a lot of stuff. Sometimes joins his sister in her training sessions, since he’s also good at archery. Did a little bit of medical stuff in high school, so he knows a little more than basic first aid.
And here’s my favorite. Dionysus. He’s the youngest, and one of Zeus’s least favorites. All of his siblings and family’s careers kinda took off because they all had the money and family reputation, Zeus had ties and stuff. It’s why they’re family’s so well-off and all are super known. Dionysus is known as the failure, even though he didn’t even do much. But compared to his family he isn’t seen as good enough. He was a wild child, first of all, and then when he was older his career was acting. He acted for a little bit, then slowly spiraled into alcoholism and had to quit. Even when he slowly got over it and became better about drinking, he felt discouraged about retrying. So now he’s going on by doing small other jobs and such. One of those jobs is helping endangered animals! Specifically, leopards! Through that groups connection is how he met Chiron. Who is actually disabled and he runs a program for young children who come from tough circumstances. He has a summer camp that helps teach them certain things and is a place for kids who were deemed “hopeless” to have someone show them they are not. Sometimes Dionysus pitches in and does stuff for that, and eventually gets more involved. Especially after he meets a certain child on his way to a first date. Percy Jackson.
here’s my estimated ages for the Olympians!
Hades: early 70’s but very healthy, they all are.
Hera: 60’s (but again, they are all very healthy and very young looking.)
Artemis and Apollo: mid to late 30’s.
