did the Romans get any rewards for their efforts in toppling Mt. Othrys?
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/f258506198e08d4c76e8541b621a2b1c/2039093b3c148fac-b5/s540x810/eac8e4dab6a99267d1c15719d8f2efd48f4f1299.jpg)
Ok but, hmm how can I put it into words.
Chb and Camp Jupiter work in opposite ways. The other camp is more dependent on the gods in their internal working such as their cabin system and whatnot but more independent in general and their outside working, due to their demigods being trained as independent heroes.
We do have more independence when it comes to New Rome and Senate politics but the legion is the gods's soldiers. First and foremost. It's not made up of independent heroes but an army. No offence to Percy Jackson but why should we get a reward for doing our job? The families living in New Rome is safe and the gods are pleased with Saturn's defeat; that's rewarding enough.

ancient rome as a fictional setting is awesome because it is literally a deeply evil yet advanced empire with interesting cultural stuff happening. people should be creaming their pants to have them as villains at the center of their historical narratives but instead you've got white supremacist chuds online doing fallout new vegas rp about it

Helluva-Hazbin RPC Imperium but EU4
GET FUCKING HYPED FOR IMPERIALISM!
In this corner, we have an epic 3-way between @arachn0philia of Portugal, @mourningstarred of Castile and @danger-tits-lute of Aragon!
They're fighting for regional dominance and the ever-so-lucrative Strait of Gibraltar, but also racing for the New World! Who's going to cash-in on all that shiny silver and gold?
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/c3ea1f338a81f18a1396139605d1f865/fc5599f86a7bb47e-d2/s540x810/d85f0d1cf1fddaca88fd15823565e22b4973b5cd.jpg)
And in this corner, another 3-way between @out-of-heaven-and-hell of Norway, @nebula-gaster of Sweden and @cast-you-dxwn of Novgorod!
It's a fight that will shape the very soul of Scandinavia! Will two join against one or will one take all?
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/7f9865a3359d162221b4b5061264ff0d/fc5599f86a7bb47e-94/s540x810/cae5087a18beb47acb4ec16f3c3bf12bde1f370a.jpg)
But now, a double-feature! It's the unification of Italy and the domination of Southeastern Europe, all in one!
In Italy, @triple-moon-rp of Milan, @hellsdisneyprincess of Venice and @furby-organist of Naples fight for free reign over the Mediterranean Sea and to decide the TRUE successor of Rome!
Meanwhile, @rocxyoulikeahurricane of Austria, @dick-meister of Croatia, @infernal-general of Hungary and @primordialruin of Wallachia face not only the invading Ottomans, but each other! Who will unite the Balkans and retake Constantinople?
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/6bcc44e280b543c1ac7d7c5f6f55734c/fc5599f86a7bb47e-2e/s540x810/5a71aadbbc78e3166c0e54e2ea8488e36471b881.jpg)
And finally, we have the historic grudge match that has shaped world history! It's the fight for dominance of Western Europe and later, THE WORLD!
@avispatr of England encroaches on French and Irish soil, discontent with owning most of one island (that greedy tax-loving bastard). Meanwhile, @hells-greatestdad of France must pick-up the pieces of a broken nation as @themosthatedbeingg of Scotland seeks to secure sovereignty!
![Tumblr media](https://64.media.tumblr.com/960b45cd9059729063e6dba50ca7f83b/fc5599f86a7bb47e-01/s540x810/a94f474faea8e346f2372499ee2ca326e64ac69b.jpg)
TUNE IN TONIGHT AT 7PM EST TO BEAR WITNESS TO ALTERNATE HISTORY!

the cockles masterlist, part 6
now split in SIX parts for link limit reasons
WARNING: this post glitches and crashes on mobile. it’s recommended you view this on your desktop, or at least on your mobile browser rather than the app. if my desktop theme is hard on your eyes, try an extension such as Just Read or Reader View to customize the layout and colors.
if you’re still having trouble viewing, or if you don’t want to have to switch between the five posts, here’s all of the links compiled into a google doc.
welcome to the cockles masterpost, a labor of love/insomniac hyperfixation.
i recently wrote this cockles manifesto, but after it got a lot of notes and i kept adding more links to it, i decided i should just go through my 8 years of archives and compile all the cockles posts in a much more accessible and navigable way. after everything with the series finale and destielgate, i figured we could use some happiness, and it turns out there are a lot of people who’ve never heard the cockles gospel.
important disclaimer: yes, i do think that jensen and misha have a private romantic/sexual relationship, but no i do not, in any way, think that they have ever cheated on their wives. we think they are polyamorous, which is a real and valid thing, and misha is openly poly. some people love more than one person, and that’s okay. their families are close and we love and support all of them.
second important disclaimer: despite the amount of innuendo below, this is not about fantasizing about two hot guys fucking. cockles is about the joy of witnessing two people who love each other and make each other happy and are disgustingly cute together. we’re not fetishizing, we’re just appreciating what they publicly share with us.
third important disclaimer: because some of y’all don’t know, the cardinal rule of cockles is that we don’t talk to cockles about cockles. DO NOT leave any comments on their social media accounts implying anything. not even green and blue hearts. they know that we know, but it’s on us not to make it weird. if we’re too obvious and say too much, they might start sharing less. don’t say anything.
for the sake of my sanity, these are in no particular order.

Roleplay request for Gladiator II
Hi there!
I’m looking for someone interested in roleplaying as Emperor Geta, Emperor Caracalla, Lucius, or General Acacius. Please note, I’m not replacing the partners I already are with—this is just for a new story idea!
Rules:
•18+ only since the roleplay has mature themes
• I can write semi-lit to literate, so feel free to match my style, but no one-liners, please.
•Be comfortable with MxM pairings, and keep in mind that this RP will include themes like violence, smut, and intense drama, as seen in the movie.
Character:
I’ll be playing my OC, Felix, a lowborn man with striking beauty who is sent to Rome to serve the emperors.
Plot Ideas:
Here are some plots we could explore!
1.Felix is noticed for his beauty and brought to the emperor's court as a servant. The emperor becomes captivated by him, taking him as their favorite concubine.
2.Felix the servant of one of the emperors having eye contact with Lucius in the colosseum ,them having a secret rerationship which could get them both killed.
3. Felix is a skilled archer sent to kill General Acacius only to get captured and becoming a servant under his command.
4. Plot something different together!
If interested dm me or like this post and I'll get back to you

Hello! I am Bianca Di Angelo! I am the daughter of Maria Di Angelo and the Greek deity Hades. I am also known as the deceased sister of the Ghost King, @the-ghostking-di-angelo! I am currently 12 years old and will forever remain 12 as I am dead. I was a Hunter of Artemis before I died, and would have been a current resident of Cabin 13 at Camp Half Blood. The Fates did not consider social media when writing the rules centuries ago, so this is a technical loophole I have decided to exploit since Elysium is a bit boring. OOC: Please send asks or tag me!! OC's are always allowed to interact <33
➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳➳
@gh0st-king-nico - my younger brother! he's honestly just a sweet little kid. If I find anyone being mean or even remotely rude to him, I can easily show you the horrors the Underworld will have have in store for you :)) @hazel-the-jewel - my sister! she's so sweet and responsible and talented. im so proud of her! she's the praetor of New Rome and everything! Once again, if I hear a single comment about her, I will find you and make you wish you never opened your mouth :))
@will-shoelaces - Nico's boyfriend! Very nice kid and a gentleman. Nico really cares about him so I fully support him! He's also a healer and can glow! if you dare break his heart, I know where you live :) @challenging-lord-frank Hazel's boyfriend! Very responsible and extremely kind. Hazel loves him a lot <3 But once again, if you dare break her heart, I know where you live :)
@lightning-boi-is-here - he's my brother's best friend! he's a good person and really friendly. Honestly reminds me of a golden retriever @forbiddensonoftheseagod - Son of Poseidon and a greek hero. He's really nice and extremely loyal. 10/10 quest mate!
Grover! - Satyr and Lord of the Wild! Apparently he's a protector so he might follow you and your brother around for a while in a totally not creepy or terrifying way.
@pinecone-face-thalia - Daughter of Zeus and Lieutenant of the Hunters of Artemis! Very cool and a bit intimidating. Nice to talk to though!
@annabeth-w1se-g1rl - Daughter of Athena! Dating Percy and friends with my sister! She's very cool and I admire her leadership.
@p1per-mclean - Daughter of Aphrodite! Hazel's friend and Nico's friend. She's really nice though she seems like a troublemaker.
Shel! - Mortal! She's Piper's girlfriend. She's really sweet and easy to talk to.
@fireboy-supreme - Son of Hephaestus! Nico warned me not to trust him. He does look like he gets into a lot of trouble.
Reyna - my honorary sister! She's one of Nico's closest friends and joined the hunt! She has an aura that demands respect and is a very sophisticated and cool person
@rangaartist - Also a Mortal! She is also the Oracle! (I'm so sorry Rachel for that repeating prophecy my dad sent, I told him twice would be enough)

is the governing of New Rome separate from the legion? like is there an adult government that manages most things in the city specifically and the praetors just manage the legion or is the city governed by like two sixteen year olds at any given moment
Yes and No. The Preators are the leaders of the legion aka military; while New Rome is governed by the Senate.
The Senate is made up of the centurions and preators currently serving, lares who held the rank of senator during time of death and ten former legionnaires who now live in New Rome and held the rank of Centurion or higher during their service. Every year a general vote is held to rank in/against favor of the current senators and the one/s who have the most dislike of the population are expulsed of their rank.
Matters and policies concerning New Rome are voted on by the senators, and only get passed if a majority of %60 approves it. Though if the policy in question only concerns the city, it can get voted privately between the senators not in service of the army and then gets presented to the Preators in Principia for a final say.
Unless Rome is at war neither of the preators hold more power than any other senator, at least on paper. A few too many riots would occur if the decision makers were 20 years old at maximum. Gods know it's hard to get a budget expansion as it is, I do not envy Minnie's job.
We've not been able to vote in/off any senator due to the extraordinary circumstances of the past few years, but hopefully, if the gods will it, we will be able to this year.
Tl,Dr; The city is governed by the Senate which includes legion members and New Rome citizens but only twelve of the senators are teenagers at most in normal times.

Gladiator II got me feeling some kind of way so here I am! I’m looking for an oc rp, either mxm or mxf.
I’d love to play a gladiator in a whole bunch of scenarios: for mxm, maybe against another gladiator fighting alongside one another, maybe a lanista (man that purchases/looks after gladiators), maybe a soldier/general for an enemies to lovers type thing, maybe even against a prince or emperor, and even more! Angst, drama, tension, small moments of vulnerability and growth; there’s so much opportunity!
Also very open to mxf, with me as the m! Consider: the wife/sister/daughter of a lanista who is intrigued by the gladiators and grows close to one; maybe an old, long lost childhood sweetheart/friend that found herself in Rome first only to see her old friend now, years later, being carted in after a victory against her home nation; maybe a fierce soldier forced to learn how to live after the defeat of her nation and connects in fleeting moments with the captured gladiators. All the heartache and the tenderness, the fight to stay alive and reclaim freedom or find something worth living for in this new place!
I’m open to any dynamic and I’d love to plot something out with my partner! Dark topics and violence to be expected, smut welcome but not the priority; irl faceclaims preferred (I’ll be using Paul Mescal, if that influences/deinfluences anyone). Rp to take place on discord or tumblr, with advanced literate writing styles, multi para at the least and novella welcome. Complex characters and unique dynamics/relationships, please! I am 21+ and won’t rp with anyone under 18. ⚔️
Like if interested!

I have an RP character from a fantasy setting heavily based on Rome's empire-building. Most players in the same world focus on other parts of the story -- my character's homeland is by no means obscure, but the details aren't widely known.
Every time a new real world conflict breaks out, I get someone in my inbox either complaining that I'm taking advantage of current events for my silly fictional roleplay, or complimenting me on my insightful and nuanced take on current events.
War is war. Colonization and oppression are colonization and oppression.
My character's story is a war story, and there are things about war that don't change over thousands of years. Any half decent fictional fantasy war is going to have similarities to real world conflicts.
The evil empire canonically uses Latin names. I named my character Alaric. Put it together, people.
