#god Odysseus

[cryptid-writer]

Okay so I got two ideas for godified Odysseus (inspired by @fictionforlifenz frayed feather spin-offs)

Odysseus, God of hatred and vengeance

It was his defeating of Poseidon that really cemented him in the position. The rest of the Odyssey goes the same, except the combination of besting a god in battle and the traces of godblood from Hermes results in his assent. The slaughter of the suitors is what grants him his domain. He doesn't realize what's happened until he gets a minor injury and instead of red it's gold.

Odysseus, child of Hermes

Sacred animal being weasels for their mischievous and cunning nature. Though not his official domains, he's known for being just as cunning and tricky as his kin. Has three sets of wings like Hermes, head, lower back, and ankles. May appear as an osprey or weasel. Far more prone to general shitheadery, likes messing with mortals as much as he aids. More familiar with mortals than some of the other gods. Uses a "glamor" type spell to hide his wings from mortals.

Based on my HC from… literally half a day ago blasting 600 strikes on repeat can do wonders apparently

for those who know me, you know that I am a big fan of greek mythology, so when the epic saga by Jorege Rivera-Herrans came out I couldn't help but fall madly in love with it, his music accompanied and inspired me while I was working, and now that this long journey is about to end I couldn't help but leave a tribute to thank him for all the work he has done. he couldn't have left us a better christmas present under the tree! thanks again for everything.

ps: I already know that with the last song I will cry like a fountain!!

Odysseus: *gently hands Athena baby Telemachus*

Athena: …you were PREGNANT AND YOU DIDNT TELL ME?!

Odysseus: what?- no-

Athena: DO YOU KNOW HOW DANGEROUS THAT IS?! I WAS TRAINING YOU!

Odysseus: no I wasn’t the one-

Athena: THAT POOR BOY WAS PROBABLY SO SQUISHED IN YOUR HELMET! LOOK AT HOW SMALL HE IS!!

Calypso I hate you but I love you but I hate you but I love you but I hate you but i love you but I hate you but I love you but I hate you

now that the ithaca saga is out i'd like to just put it out there that, in the original text, after they reunite odysseus and penelope immediately run off to fuck - obviously (20 years at sea away from your wife call that the wettest dry spell mankind's ever seen). BUT while they're getting all hot and heavy, athena decides to put her owl motif to good use and wingman for odysseus by quite literally holding off the dawn until they're fully satisfied (od. 23.345-348). which is just. what a way to end off one of the greatest pieces of storytelling in human history

Perhaps one of my favorite bits so far

Ichor was never meant to mix with mortal flesh. It burns and eats mortals into nothingness, unless it comes in contact with a mortal already carrying blood of the gods by birth. Even trace amounts. When that happens, a reaction occurs. A godling is made. But there's nothing Poseidon can do, pinned to rock by his very own weapon. So he's forced to witness, can do nothing but agree as the magics of spilled god, trace amounts of divinity, and the power of the deal merge. Create a god fueled by hate. Distantly he realizes this is why divine beings were never meant to lay with mortals, yet here they are. Sure, Zeus may banish the new immortal, but there's nothing they can do to kill him now that he's become one of them.

Still playing around with it, but here’s my Hermes design!!!

And something extra BEJSHEJ //hits play on Wouldn’t You Like

[sunshines-child]

this is how god games went right

[baambastic]

I see your “Apollo agreed so easily because he doesn’t care about Odysseus” and raise you “the god of prophecy knows that Odysseus is going to make it home, so he’s not going to make much of an effort to stop him.”

I will need 3 to 5 business days to emotionally recover from this part in gigi's animatic of God Games......
