hello, gorgeous people ! as we announced in our group chat on discord a little while ago, there have been some doubts about what to do with this group. the plot has come to a bit of a standstill, so to say, and activity has generally been lacking ( let us please just clarify that this is on all parts. weâre both guilty of not getting online and posting as much as we used to either, so please donât feel attacked ! ). because of this, weâre sad to announce that among us is going to take a little bit of a break for a while. weâre going to distance ourselves from the main, figure out what we can salvage of this universe and our plot, and if we find enough material to work with and people willing to re-join, we will come back. this may take a short while, but it could also take a very long time. for this reason, we ask that you do what you like with your characters. if you want to continue rping them, then please, be our guest ! weâre not definitely closing the group, weâre taking an indefinite hiatus to clear our heads.Â
if no one ends up posting, weâd like to direct you to our wonderful affiliate, @pepromenohqâ, which is looking absolutely stunning. if this doesnât suit your fancy, three of our members have started to branch out to their own old rp - @fireandgloryrpgâ, so you could also give that a look over if youâd like. weâre still here, weâre not leaving the rp community. you can hit both of us up on discord if youâd like to just talk or if you have any questions regarding this decision. both of us are in other rps as well, so if youâd still like to rp with either of us, just let us know.Â
then thereâs nothing else to say but thank you - thank you all for the wonderful time weâve spent together. both of us re-connected with old friends, made some new ones and we just generally had a lovely time ! and thatâs all thanks to you. Â

Howâs everyones saturdays going? Iâve spent mine binge watching Hellâs Kitchen which was a great time. It would be super lovely to have to apps in the inbox for tomorrow's acceptances or even to see some interest in the wanted connections or wanted characters.Â
If anyone has any questions they want answered feel free to send them this way, Iâll be around the main for a couple of hours yet!

Welcome to Among Us, KITTY! Z GOLDSBOURNE ( with the faceclaim of  JULIAN MORRIS ) has found shelter in NEW ATHENS, where we hope HE will fit in nicely. Please make sure to check the âafter applyingâ section of our navigation here!
Itâs so nice to see some older Greeks turning up, especially some of the minor gods. Z clearly has some pretty strong feelings about the gods, not all them being good, so itâll be really interesting to see what he makes of the recall and all the demigods heâs not stuck living with for the foreseeable.You really gave us a nice sense of his character, his dislike of his full name and how he knows heâs antagonistic but wholly accepts that part of himself without real apology. Itâll be really interesting to see what he makes of his current situation. Â
AND YOU ARE�
What is your full name, and when were you born?
Z considered the question for a moment, but decided it was better to give the truth than to go about telling the interviewer one of his signature fake names. âI was born on Scheherazade Amadeus Goldsbourne,â he murmured, face a bit pained. Saying it aloud was like speaking in archaic curses, as if letting every syllable drip from his lips would invoke a demon. Granted, he was fairly certain it would. No one uttered his name and got away with it. Not even his parents. âI knowâŚI knowâitâs a mouthful and my mother was a hippie. You can just call me Z. Never had much of a connection with the source material.â The way he spoke the words made a pointed message that it wasnât a request. They would call him Z; they didnât have a choice. âMy birth date is August 31st, 1998, so that makes me what? Twenty-eight? Twenty-nine? I never bothered with keeping track of my age.â
Have you been claimed, or do you belong to a legacy? If yes, state your godly parent / heritage.
âYeah; Iâm one of the bastards of that lazy, floating bloke Hypnos.â Zâs voice had lowered an entire octave, eyes somehow getting darker underneath his heavy lids and thick lashes. He hated the idea of being claimed; hated the thought of being related to Hypnos even more. The cowardly man had done little more than plant a seed in a drugged out flower child and left her with the bill of taking care of a deeply troubled child during the day. During the night, his thoughts were plagued with a portly man with silver hair and teakwood skin lulling him to sleep and filling his head with pleasant nothings. Until, of course, his powers manifested at the precipice of adolescence. Then, the man was nowhere to be found, no matter how far into the realm of dreams Z wandered. In his stead, he found his half brother Morpheus, who he liked even less than his father.
Being insufferable mustâve run in the family.
Z shook away the thoughts and decided to occupy his attention with his nail beds. They needed tending to. âHe claimed me immediately after I got here after the recall,â he said, offhandedly before looking up. âPerks of being a minor godâs child, I suppose. No having to wait in line for that sweet, sweet validation.â
Where are you currently based? Are you attending a Camp (Half-Blood / Jupiter), or are you living full-time in New Athens / New Rome? Is it a combination of both?
âIâve been moved to New Athens after the accordance. Youâd think Iâd lodge with the little gremlins or the Romans? Not blooming likely.â
Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? ( If youâre applying for a canon character, are you diverging from book-canon? If so, how?)
Dark looks donât always mean a dark person, but one could propose that Zâs not doing the rage against the stereotype any favors. He tended to have quite the wicked tongue and possessed a bad attitude to boot. He doesnât say any of this. Instead, he offered a toothy grin. âIâm told I can be rather antagonistic, which I consider a compliment,â he commented without missing a beat. His disdain for pleasantries stemmed from the constant isolation heâd received in his life after his powers had manifested. At the early stages, he could hardly control his hypnokinesis and people didnât like being around him because it made them feel groggy and gross. Classmates who were once friends became strangers, never daring to even look in his direction. Heâd become a pariah. The hardness of his person, the penchant for dark colors, and habit to be vexing blossomed as a defense mechanism to make himself feel less like a victim.
The presence of his powers were also the reason behind why he even took up psychology. He thought that having others open up to him would help him fill a void in his chest, which in turn would help ease their suffering. It also served as the only place he felt in power. Somewhere along the way, megalomania had taken up a permanent residence in his heart.
He paused then after, but began again once heâd considered out it sounded. âIâm not all bad, though. I have a soft spot for the dreamers of the world, something my mother says I inherited from my father. I think itâs important to hold onto your wonder for as long as you can. Life is dreadful without it.â Z was quite the dreamer himself. He had always wanted to be center stage, adored by many, but his penchant for sleeping and general lack of punctuality kept him from ever securing any auditions he set out for.
What were you doing prior to the Recall?
âImmediately? I think I was finishing some light readingâSacrĂŠ Bleu by Christopher Moore,â he shared with ease. He didnât mention where heâd been reading or what circumstances had given him enough leisure time to do so. Instead, piercing eyes washed over the interviewer to really take them in physically, something he hadnât bothered doing before. If memory served correctly, their kind were called satyrs. They wereâŚcute. He wondered idly if they were as plush as they looked or if their furry bits were coarse. He hoped for the former; it would put them on the top of his to-do list. ââŚbut, I suppose thatâs not exactly the answer you were aiming for.â
Z received a response in the affirmative. Nosy little bugger, werenât they?
The demigod thinks back to what specifically heâd occupied his time doing before being uprooted and forced to move in with the weird colorful characters of his fatherâs world. âI worked as a psychiatrist and danced in performances in my free time. If youâve ever seen a Broadway Bares performance, youâve probably seen a lot of me.â

Welcome to Among Us, MEL! POPPY THOMPSON ( with the faceclaim of  HAILEE STEINFELD ) has found shelter in NEW ATHENS, where we hope SHE will fit in nicely. Please make sure to check the âafter applyingâ section of our navigation here!
You had us at the answer to the first question already, with the clever little line about being dropped off at a shop, a detail some people tend to forget about demigod lives. Poppyâs major is such a fitting one, and itâs very nice to see her very realistic view of her family; even though she clearly loves them all to bits, there have been times where she doubted that happiness. No family is perfect, and Poppy knows it. Itâs going to be a wild ride for her, juggling a major and her job at the greenhouses, but we have all the faith in her that sheâll make it through. Welcome aboard!
AND YOU ARE�
What is your full name, and when were you born?
âMy full name is Poppy Isabelle Thompson, but please, just call me Poppy. I was born on April 3rd, 1997, or at least that was the day I arrived at my dadâs shop.â
Have you been claimed, or do you belong to a legacy? If yes, state your godly parent / heritage.
âYes. I am a claimed daughter of Demeter. I wasnât claimed as soon as I arrived though, I donât quite remember exactly how long I was at camp before my mother claimed me, but it felt like forever. But when it finally happened, it felt very right. I mean, I wasnât exactly surprised, and I felt at home in the Demeter cabin as soon as I had one foot inside the door.â
Where are you currently based? Are you attending a Camp (Half-Blood / Jupiter), or are you living full-time in New Athens / New Rome? Is it a combination of both?
âIâm currently living in a slightly cramped dorm at New Athens University, but donât get me wrong, i love it there. I also spend some time at Camp Half Blood, as I help tend to the greenhouses from time to time.â
Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? ( If youâre applying for a canon character, are you diverging from book-canon? If so, how?)
âSure thing, not that thereâs really that much to tell, a part from the whole demi-god thing, my life is pretty normal and dull. But here goes: I grew up with dad, Andrew Thompson, we lived in a small apartment above his flower shop, and spent most of my childhood playing hide and seek amongst the flowers. Then I started school, which was kind of bad at first, because I was super shy, and I pretty much never wanted to go. But eventually, I came out of my shell and made some friends. However, I was still hanging behind a bit when it came to schoolwork due to the A.D.H.D and dyslexia, but once we figured out why I was struggling, I got help, which I hated at the time since I thought it was so embarrassing, but now Iâm very grateful for it. After I started school, it didnât really take long until I was begging my dad to let me start playing sports. I tried pretty much every sport in the entire world, but I ended up falling in love with soccer and volleyball, which I still play to this day. I wish I could say I was artistic, but unfortunately, Iâm not. Iâm definitely more of an athletic person, but I really do appreciate art, even though I couldnât draw anything more complex than a stick figure to save my life. In high school, I, like everyone else, was trying to figure out what to do with my life. So I joined a variety of clubs, including a charity club to raise money to save the rainforest, just to see if anything really piqued my interests. And it was then that I realised my passion for the environment, and how I wanted to make a change for the better. So thatâs how I ended up studying Renewable Energy engineering⌠even though math has never been my strongest subject. Itâs hard, but I definitely think itâll be worth all the hard work I have to put in. Oh, I forgot to tell you about Lauren! Sheâs my step mum, her and my dad met when I was around seven I think. Either way, Lauren and her two sons, Mason and Will, moved in right after my ninth birthday. And not too long after that, Violet was born. And I love them all to bits, even though there have definitely been days, or months where I wished I could go back to the times when it was just my dad and me.â
What were you doing prior to the Recall?
âWell, I was mainly just finishing high school and working in my dadâs shop, nothing special. Of course,I was both excited and nervous about moving to New Athens and start studying, new things are always so exciting, but I knew that I would really miss my family. However, I never thought The Recall was what would push me out of the nest.â

Welcome (back) to Among Us, DANA! ALICE AATTO ( with the faceclaim of  PENELOPE MITCHELL ) has found shelter in NEW ATHENS and NEW ROME, where we hope SHE will fit in nicely. Please make sure to check the âafter applyingâ section of our navigation here!
Aliceâs backstory is such an original one. Not only is she an Amazon for the second time in her life, she was also a werewolf. The fact that she cured herself of this terrible fate only shows what a strong person she is. Her not liking to talk about herself is quickly solved by your inclusion of a para, showing us everything that happened to her after her bite. Itâs going to be very interesting to not only see her interact with the other Amazons and inhabitants of the cities and camp, but also to see what city she chooses as her residence until sheâs allowed to go back to Seattle. Her perspective regarding demigods and legacies is one we havenât seen before either, and it was generally just a nice application to read. Weâre interested to see what she brings to the dashboard!
AND YOU ARE�
What is your full name, and when were you born?
The blonde sits up straight in her seat, looking tense but itâs easy to tell that this is her default. She looks like sheâs on guard for something or nervous about being interviewed. She doesnât like to talk about herself and there are things in her past that she would rather not discuss anymore. Still, she smiles at the interviewer. Clearly itâs a forced one but at least sheâs trying. âMy name is Alice Rhiannon Aatto and I was born on December 10, 1992. My mom is an Amazon and I guess Iâm considered one of the legacies. You know, they have to keep the Amazons going somehow even if some of them are more old-fashioned than others.â Her smile falters for a moment before she lets out a laugh. âSorry, I just thought of something funny. It was nothing, really. Nothing to worry about. Anyway, what about you?â She flashes the interviewer a toothy grin. âWhatâs your name and birthday? I mean Itâs only fair if you tell me yours now that you know mine. Donât you agree?â
Have you been claimed, or do you belong to a legacy? If yes, state your godly parent / heritage.
Alice let out another laugh. âYou see, my mother wasnât very clever. She actually named me after our legacy, you see. Iâm a third generation legacy of Alce. My grandmother was a daughter of Alce and my mother ran away and joined the Amazons when she was aboutâŚ15. Shâe always had this weird thing about being the strongest and the best at everything. Maybe it comes with Alce? I mean you canât really live up to being a legacy of the goddess of battle strength if youâre a weakling, can you?â Alice thought back to the time when she was on the run. Scrawny, scraggly, and barely what someone could call a âhealthyâ weight. If anyone had seen her then, they would think she was a totally different person than the one sitting in front of them and, in truth, she was. Sheâd gotten healthy again, colored her hair, and worked hard to get back into the good graces of the most important Amazons. Sometimes she had the feeling that she wasnât entirely there yet, but it didnât matter. Her mother and the few cousins she had in the Amazons had accepted her back with open arms and so had a few of the others. Some in secret, of course. But she couldnât really blame them after what had happened.
âI happen to like being a legacy more than I would like being the child of a god. Can you imagine what kind of hell that would be? No offense if you are, but itâs hard enough living with someoneâs legacy on your shoulders. Make one wrong move and you can ruin it for your whole immediate family. I would be terrified of being smited if I made one wrong move if I was someone with a direct connection to a god,â Alice nods her head. She knows a lot about ruining things for her family with one decision. The interviewer didnât have to know that though. But what if they already did? What if they already knew and they were just interviewing her to see how good she was at hiding who she really is. What she really went through? That was a possibility that seemed to be running through her head more often than not lately when anyone tried to be to nice to her or too welcoming. Still, if anyone really knew about the things she did, she doubted that they would be having such a pleasant conversation with her at all.
Where are you currently based? Are you attending a Camp (Half-Blood / Jupiter), or are you living full-time in New Athens / New Rome? Is it a combination of both?
Alice tilts her head curiously. She immediately went to answer Seattle but the Recall had ruined that. âFor now? Iâm bouncing back and forth through the two cities. I canât decide which one I like more at the moment.â She flashes them a charming smile.
Can you tell us a little bit about yourself? ( If youâre applying for a canon character, are you diverging from book-canon? If so, how?)
This was where the girl dropped the charming, innocent act. Her expression turns cold and she leans forward in her chair, looking more like a predator ready to strike than anything. âListen, buddy. I donât have to tell you anything except for the fact that I was born an Amazon and now I probably have to spend until my death trying to get back into the good graces of everyone else. Understood?â She paused and waited until the interviewer gave a weak nod.
What were you doing prior to the Recall?
Since the Recall, sheâd found herself living in certain fear. Â Fear that people would find out about the monsters that live in the dark and haunt their nightmares. People finding out that those were real might be worse than finding out about demigods, but the interviewer didnât need to know that. âPrior to the Recall? I was stationed back at the Amazon Headquarters so my mother and everyone else could keep a closer eye on me.â She drums her fingers on the arm of the chair, staring at the interviewer until they motioned that she could leave.
SHOWTIME!
Dusk
Alice Aatto never believed the things her mother said to her. Sure, she knew that things that go bump in the night existed and that they were more dangerous than people could possibly even imagine but she didnât have any idea what would happen to her. Alice was 17 when she ventured away from the small group of Amazons, consisting of her mother and her cousins for the most part, that she was traveling with at the time. She was young and ignorant and she paid for it. Her mother followed the sounds of Aliceâs panicked screaming into the woods and by the time she found her, whatever had attacked her was long gone, yet Alice was close to falling unconscious. Blood was everywhere and it was cited as a miracle that the animal (Alice insisted it was after all and there were no other witnesses) hadnât killed her.
There was no hint that anything was wrong for a few more weeks. Alice returned to her full health very quickly to the surprise of her mother and the other Amazons who knew about the attack. The blonde was careful as anything to keep the bite hidden from anyone; insistent on the fact that the thing had healed just fine with ambrosia and nectar, there was no getting her to show anyone so the point was moot. Sheâd even fooled herself into thinking everything else was fine until the full moon hit. Sheâd told her mother that she was too tired and not feeling well to avoid going to dinner and she ended the night early, though not in the way most people would imagine. Alice knew that someone catching her would get her killed, so the second that her fingernails started the painful transformation, she slammed herself as hard as she could into her bathroom door in a panic. Unconsciousness came, along with a rather annoying mark on her forehead the next morning and she still found herself with the soles of her feet dirty.
The fear of not knowing led her to confide in her cousin. Her closest cousin who she had grown up with for as long as she can remember but her cousin betrayed her by telling her mother. Her mother couldnât have anyone knowing, of course, so she made up a lie that Alice had been sent on a special scout approved personally by Hylla which most people knew better than to question. Instead, Alice spent the next few months locked up in her own personal prison. Her mother had rented an abandoned house close enough to the headquarters that it would be easy to keep an eye on anything. The only sign of anything different were the howls that echoed from the direction of that little house everytime the full moon came around, until one day when Aliceâs cousin didnât manage to slip through the door quick enough. The now 18 year old, delirious from being locked up for so long in her own personal hell, bashed her cousin over the head with a coffee pot and ran.
The new found stamina was certainly a gift as she found she didnât stop running until she was almost out of Washington state entirely. She was a deserter now, a traitor to her own family. It could be a lot worse, though. She could be being tortured or just shot and put down like some kind of rabid animal. It was thoughts like this that kept Alice going while she was on the run by herself. Â No amount of good thoughts could replace human needs like food, water, and a place to sleep. Alice found herself living like an animal and within the first 5 months sheâd turned into something that her family probably wouldnât recognize. The only way she could describe herself was as feral. She was wild and totally untamed, stealing food from trash cans behind diners and restaurants in order to sustain herself. The food was enough to help her cope at first until one day the smell of hot food hit her and she went into what could best be described as a frenzy. Alice jumped out at the person, stole their entire bucket of KFC, and ran off with it. She was glad as ever that her mother wasnât there when the boy caught her because the threat of her first hot meal in months being taken from her drove the Amazon to tears. Maybe it was the hysterics that made him change his mind, but he shared his food with her and she learned very quickly that he was like her.
Full Moon
Alice hated being on the run more than anything else in the world. Sure she was a werewolf now, but that didnât mean that she wanted to spend her whole life wandering trying to find somewhere safe to call home. She wanted to go back to Seattle and beg for forgiveness, beg for help, and hope that they wouldnât return the favor by killing her on the spot. Instead, she kept running like it was the only thing she would know for the rest of her life. Plus, she wasnât alone now and that made it easier. She was praised like she was a goddess in her own right and told how she was special and for someone who had spent her whole life waiting to get some sort of recognition, it was great.
And great it was for a while until she had her eyes opened. It all started when theyâd made their way to New York. It was closer to the borders of Camp Half Blood, as close as monsters like them could get in fact when they met a few rogue demigods. Alice had announced herself as a legacy of Alce and had denied their courtesy when they offered for her to come in. The war between the Romans and Greeks was over now, after all. One of them, a girl who had to be 15 at most, made a passing comment about how she wished she could meet something that was mystical or different. Alice stared at the girl, the expression on her face a mix of panic and pity, âNo you really donât.â Alice had taken it like it was, a comment made by a little girl who had no way of knowing that the people she was talking to were actually the monsters that people talked about in storybooks.
Her partner didnât take it that way, though, and made a comment about killing the girl before she told someone. Alice wasnât too sure if he was being entirely serious or not, but it still scared her. After all, above everything else, she still felt it was part of her mission in life to protect people. Years on the run can change you, but sheâd been an Amazon for far longer than sheâd been a monster. Little pieces started to fall into place after that and it didnât take long to realize that it was like making a deal with the devil and she wanted out. So one night, not at all close to the full moon, she left without taking anything in the middle of the night and caught as many buses as it had to take to get back to Seattle.
Dawn
Just because she was back in Seattle didnât mean she was ready to face anyone she knew. Â She was still a werewolf and that was a problem that wasnât going to fix itself. Alice rented a crappy little apartment which just so happened to be across from someone who was a practicing Wiccan who was in a phase of making potions. That was in her mind the second she started looking into werewolf cures. Wolvesbane was what she needed but it could be poisonous if taken in large doses. Through connections she thought were long lost, she managed to get her hands on a sufficient amount of ambrosia and nectar that she thought would get her through.
Over the course of a few days, she dealt with the convulsions, nausea and other symptoms of wolvesbane poisoning. Fighting back death every time with a piece of ambrosia and a drink or two of nectar. Finally, the real test had arrived. It was the night of the full moon and even though Alice felt weaker than sheâd ever felt  she managed to sit up on her couch and watch the moon rise through the windows of her apartment. It took a while for it to register in her brain fogged with sickness but the moon had no effect on her.
Alice took another few weeks to fully recover, mostly due to the help of the nectar and ambrosia, before she decided that it was time. So she bid her neighbor a fond goodbye and took cab as close as she could to the Amazon Headquarters where she knew her mother would be. Walking with a slight limb, she pushed her way through the front door and hobbled up to the front desk. The woman behind the desk tried her best to hide her shock as Alice shot her a wicked smile.
âAlice, you look like hell.â
âThanks, I just crawled out of it. Now can I speak to my mother please? We have a lot to talk about.â
