HERSILIA // FIRST QUEEN OF ROME

“She was a figure in the foundation myth of Rome. She is credited with ending the war between Rome and the Sabines. In some accounts she is the wife of Romulus, the founder and first king of Rome in Rome's founding myths. She was said to have begged her husband to forgive the Antemnates’ parents and receive them into the state; which would, in that case, gain in strength by harmony. He readily granted her request. She later was deified as Hora Quirini.”

Quick story + recap + modernization

Hi? I’m Hora, the goddess of Rome and balance. Back when I was a mortal, a prophecy was sent that I was to help a man revive the pantheon to relieve the curse upon my city. I became a puritan worshipper of the gods and was often overlooked by others in my city, despite being a princess. Later in the Kidnapping of the Sabines, I was matched with the King of Rome. The young Romulus, who admittedly was a young, stupid and smitten man. I fell in love with him, stupidly in love with him.

I was pregnant with our first daughter, when my father waged war against Rome. There was a risk of both cities collapsing, so I rallied the women and jumped in front of the war as a peace token. That’s my heroic deed.

The two cities combined, and my father died shortly after. When my husband and I were older, he went to a Senate meeting and was killed on the way there. Devastated I gave my son the crown and retreated to the temples on the hill, where Iris guided me to my husband, who is a god— Quirinus

I am a mentor to Greco-Roman demigods, and I consider them my children. Yes I do PJO rp and even just general myth rp.

Day 20. Favorite Child 

I got confused at this one, since the only characters I know who are children (and the ones with the child form) are Satanick’s children and Reficuls’; None were my favorite.

I chose Hersilia instead.
