O L I V E R  S O U T H B Y  a s  o r p h e u s

The whole world watched & wept as Orpheus led his beloved Eurydice out into the world of the living… as he walked, he sung of their tale of misery, how star-crossed they were, how fated they would be…

It’s a tale of a love that never dies, it’s a love song about someone who tries.

"The thunder crashed and storms of blinding rain poured down from heaven. (E)Iris, great Juno's envoy, rainbow-clad, gathered the waters and refilled the clouds."

Muddy Waters Task 004: Greece Lighting

Lincoln Armitage as Ares

When is a war not a war? His words taste of smoke, and his eyes reflect the flames. You bite back the urge to fight, to raise your fists against this man. He laughs, and rubs scarred hands together. A war is not a war when it’s a game

Penelope Waters as Cassandra of Troy

Cassandra, daughter of the king and queen, in the temple of Apollo, exhausted from practising, is said to have fallen asleep; whom, when Apollo wished to embrace her, she did not afford the opportunity of her body. On account of which thing, when she prophesied true things, she was not believed. - Hyginus

Muddy Waters Task 004 - Greece Lightning (Guest)

Brooklyn Bishop as Modern!Hermes

“Hermes still carries the messages for his family, however little they may speak now. He detests what some people call jokes now, but still finds himself in the comedy clubs late at night trying to get people to laugh anyways. He sits in hostels around the world, swapping stories with curious college students. At the end of the day, Hermes still tries to fulfill his purpose, no matter how hard it became.”

Muddy Waters Task: Greece Lightning

[Dionysos,] an unarmed boy... [who] in his service not the arts of war, weapons, and cavalry, but tender garlands, myrrh-scented tresses,  and embroidered robes of gold and purple.

Harper Brennan as Artemis

Artemis is freedom—wild, untrammeled, aloof from all entanglements. She is a huntress, a dancer, the goddess of nature and wildness, a virgin physically and, even more important, a virgin psychologically, inviolable, belonging to no one, defined by no relationship, confined by no bond.
