Pjo fic, but the reader is the Oracle for Camp Jupiter

Like, there are so many gods to be the child of — Janus, Apollo, Fauna, Carmenae, Carmenta, just a regular mortal like Rachel, etc

And the powers. Since Octavian reads prophecies through animal entrails (as opposed to Rachel), how would reader interpret one?

Obviously, friendship with Rachel is a must. Octavian can be a kinda understudy Oracle, and he gets real bitter and jealous about that

I’m thinking a kind of Ranpo-esque reader, where they know everything, but only through a niche, obscure ‘ability’.

The Roman goddess Carmenta was honoured with two feasts in the month of January - the first taking place on the 11th. These feasts were called the Carmentalia and were primarily celebrated by women. 

Carmenta was a goddess of childbirth, and patron goddess of midwives. However, she was also a goddess of innovation and higher learning. It was said that she was the one who invented the Latin alphabet.

Interestingly, unlike many gods and goddesses of this period - she forbade blood sacrifices. So the traditional slaughter of a ram of a bull would not be observed. Instead offerings of food (not meat) and fruit would be made to her. Her abhorrence of death was so profound that it was forbidden to wear leather or animals skins in her temple or sacred groves. This meant that many of her worshippers did so barefooted.

Mistica do mês de Janeiro

Janeiro contém, em si, todos os potenciais do ano, mas guarda os elementos, as lições e os resíduos do ano que o precedeu. Por isso é um mês para se livrar do velho , preparando planos e projetos para novas conquistas, mudanças e…

“The kinds of Demons -you- don’t fuck with--”  What up y’all!? So, I really wanted to draw some Madamas, and whom’s better but @quasahi ‘s Madama Carmenta and @kelbremdusk ‘s Madama Alkonost?  This also marks the debut of Vivien’s pact: Lady Lachesis A bit about LL: Based on the Death’s Head Moth. Her over all theme is Fate and Destiny and she is commonly known as the “Death Dealer”. (More on her later when I do a stand alone piece! Anyway, I hope these lovely artists like my rendition of their kick-ass MAdamas!  (Also please forgive the messed up hands @-@)
