#Bet Dionysus loves a rum and coke

Give Dionysus Potatoes

❤️Love❤️ all my Dionysus lovers and fellow practitioners, and honor them as you may with grapes that's awesome...

But grapes are overrated.

Yeah yeah, grapes make wine, prefect, but give this man some hops! Give this intoxicated god some barley, give them sugar cane for their rum! Give them potatoes for their vodka!

Give Dionysus a bit of coke for a mixer, a bottle opener in his name.

Character Intro: Hermes (Kingdom of Ichor)

Nicknames- Jackrabbit by Dionysus

The Busy One, The Lucky Lad by the people of Olympius

He Man by Apollo

Smart Ass by Thalia (muse of comedy)

Age- 18 (immortal)

Location- Arcadia, Olympius

Personality- He's a cheerful laid back guy for the most part. There’s always a sly devilish grin on his face. He loves being the center of attention. He’s cunning, clever, and quick on his feet. Hermes never passes on the opportunity for a dare, bet, or wager and he also has a wicked sense of humor. He’s pansexual & is currently single.

As the god of roads, travelers, thieves, merchants, messengers, speed, trade, sports, borders, thoughts, communications, money, & luck, he has a wide range of powers/abilities. They include clauditikinesis (being able to control locks), magically expanding storage spaces, telepathy (being able to read minds), chrimatakinesis (money manipulation), teleportation (through a red mist), force field generation, chemokinesis (chemistry manipulation), super enchanced speed (the fastest deity in the pantheon!), hypnokinesis, communicating with/shapeshifting into animals that are sacred to him (like tortoises, rams, hawks, and snakes, etc...).

He gives off his natural scent- a mixture of ground up coffee beans & gasoline.

Being the god of many things (roads, thieves, hospitality, etc...) He oversees a lot of businesses in Olympius. Hermes helps his father with his several powerful business conglomerates, he helps his half-brother Hephaestus (god of the forge) with his tech & construction companies- more specifically with road construction. Hermes even works for his uncle Hades (god of the dead), ushering souls in the Underworld. He's the founder/head of the OPS (Olympius Postal Service). He also owns most of the banks and has his own chain of casinos in the country- called Caduceus Palace. Hermes has other ventures including a few night clubs, his own airline (Diaktoros), a successful fitness magazine (Powerpulse), a business/finance magazine (The Acropolis Street Ledger), his own gas stations, the largest oil refinery in the entire realm (Polytropos Refinery), karaoke bars, novelty prank stores, & nationwide gyms called Fit to be a God. Hermes also has a popular sneaker line called Airopolis, an athletic/streetwear fashion line called ViVoTrack (which includes eyewear), and a line of energy drinks called OmegaDash.

He even has his own amusement park- Talaria Theme Park!

His mischievious nature started out early in life when he stole a herd of cows from his half brother Apollo (god of the sun, music, poetry, healing, medicine, archery, plague, light, & knowledge) when Hermes was barely a day old! Another notable moment from his godly career was when he slayed the hundred eyed giant Argus.

He's the creator/founder of the social media website Fatestagram, the video sharing site PanopTube, as well as the internet search engine Omega.

Hermes' favorite football team is the Arcadia Rams!

As an induction gift his father gave him a white gold chunky chain necklace with a key charm covered in white diamonds.

His most prized possession is his smartphone that can also transform into his caduceus.

He’s also one of the co-chairs of the annual Olympic Tournament- the biggest sporting event in all of Olympius!

Hermes is fluent in all the languages spoken in Olympius!

His go-to drink is a rum and coke. He also likes soda (most flavors) & energy drinks (especially his brand). A usual for him from The Roasted Bean is an olympian sized iced coffee!

As well as living in New Olympus, Hermes also spends some time in the Underworld. He lives in an apartment at The Obsidian Tower. He also has an estate in Arcadia where he owns a farm with a lot of cattle and sheep!

Hermes has the largest, most extensive sneaker collection in the pantheon!

His all time favorite dessert from Hollyhock's Bakery is the rocky road brownies!

Hermes' favorite ice cream flavor is chocolate coffee.

As far as his relationships with the other deities, Hermes tries to be friendly with everyone, even his step-mother Hera (goddess of women & marriage); in spite of her thinly veiled insults.

Hermes was the second deity to be mentored by Pan (god of the wild, satyrs, shepherds, & rustic music).

He adores his mom, Maia, always taking the opportunity to spoil her with extravagant gifts. Hermes also has a cool relationship with his aunts, The Pleiades. He considers Electra to be his favorite aunt. Hermes feels that he has to put on a show (less flashy, more restrained) when his grandmother Pleione (Titaness of sailing & stars) is around.

He loves snacking on pickle flavored chips!

In his free time, Hermes loves pulling pranks on people and the other deities! He also enjoys playing basketball, playing dice, sailing, writing (in his journal), cliff diving, playing dominoes, video games, doing live streams, bungee jumping, poker, mountain climbing, billiards, playing jacks, skateboarding, bowling, rollerblading, football (soccer), traveling, and working out. He's also been bitten by the photography bug & has enjoyed taking pictures! Hermes has become quite the photographer with many of his pictures being in art galleries in the city. His father Zeus (god of the sky, thunder, & lightning) even allowed him to do the photography for the New Olympus travel brochure. He's even started to collect cameras.

Hermes enjoys teasing Hecate (goddess of magic & witchcraft) about them making out at Hades’ Ta Kalanta party. He remembers the taste of spiced rum on her lips. He has a “friends with benefits” relationship with Peitho (goddess of persuasion & sensuality) and hate-sex arrangement with Chelone (goddess of tortoises).

Hermes' last long term relationship was with Chione (goddess of snow). Their breakup was shown on a HUGE jumbotron, as they were arguing during a basketball game.

He also had a crush on Philotes (goddess of sex, friendship, & affection)- with him having a life size poster of her in the penthouse apartment he shares with Apollo & Dionysus (god of wine), that was personally autographed by her.

Hermes has been in a “duel” of sorts with Thalia (muse of comedy). It all started after he performed at her comedy club and garnered a louder standing ovation. They’re always trying to one up each other to see who's the funniest. They both say that they hate each other. Other beings (like Aphrodite) say they have angst & sexual tension.

He also kinda hooked up with Adephagia (goddess of gluttony).

His favorite meal is a large mediterranean pizza. Hermes also likes his mom's fried rice, lo mein, and szechuan chicken. He also likes steak (well done) topped with sauteed onions as well as olympian sized onion rings with a cheesesteak burger from Olympic Chef!

His favorite from The Bread Box is the reuben sandwich (sometimes added with extra coleslaw) along with a medium container of potato salad.
