Hey everybody! Now that I've gotten a fair amount of content on the story, I'd like to hear your feedback as I'm starting to ponder where to go next. What SLs do you like, which do you think need to be spiced up, what SLs would you like to see, who would like to see focused on more, etc. I'm not...

It should work now. I've never read Exalted so I'm not entirely sure what you mean, but so long as it's not some immediate thing, you can go with the Hephaestus story. I was just wary of an endgame like scenario right out f the gate as the story is very much in the world-building stage right now.

You're officially the Editor now.

Thanks a bunch!

Ah, okay, I misunderstood. How do i do that? I've never done it before.

Wow, that's..talk about God Mode. I'd be okay with that so long as it's not really linked with the other threads. Like very much a stand-alone thing, otherwise it could throw a lot of the more story-driven stuff out of whack. Sorry if I'm sounding picky, I'm still fairly new to...

Yeah, that doesn't really fit with the tone of the story, plus I'm not really a fan of the whole "pleasure slave" thing. What kind of forbidden seduction?

I could definitely see that. Not all the former pantheon members outright serve Zeus and Hera anymore. For instance in my SL it's established that Aphrodite doesn't directly answer to Zeus anymore. Hephaestus could easily be another who has his own power base and doesn't need Zeus' patronage, or...

Heh, I'd be okay with any of those. You actually inspired me to go a little more with alternate pantheons.I just put in an alternate option for Zeus' phonecall expanding off Zeus getting shot in Bolivia, where he talks to Pachamama, Incan goddess of Earth, and the de-facto power of South America.

Asclepius, eh? Interesting. Back when I was in a rp game, which was kind of the inspiration for this story concept, we had a player who played Asclepius.

I'm glad you asked as I realize while reading your response that I was lax in explaining this. For the most part I am not a fan of the non-consent genre. I've seen some done well, where no one is forced or blackmailed into doing anything, but for the most part I shy away from it. If it's playful...

Hello everybody. Just put up the beginning of my second story on the site, Olympus on Earth, a story of ancient gods reborn in the modern age. https://chyoa.com/story/Olympus-On-Earth.9726 If you want to know more, have a look here...

Okay, I've drafted an intro chapter that hopefully will be published soon. In the meantime here's a rough draft of the guidelines: Guidelines 1. No rape whatsoever. I know this is something many of the gods did in the past, but they've gained more human sensibilities since then and now find the...

I've decided that while the core story will at the time be centered around the Olympians, at least at first, gods from other mythos can be used. However, these would likely, at least in the beginning have to be spearheaded by other writers as I least what to get the established premise out there...

I could definitely see a major story path being the contentious and often dysfunctional relationship between Zeus and Hera as being a running theme not just n a Zeus/Hera centric path, but something that affects others as well. These are interesting ideas.

A lot of what the modern incarnations of the gods in this day and age would be left up to individual writer interpretation. The only guidelines being that said god or goddess would likely gravitate to something close to their divine portfolio in their prveious life. And of course different...

Absolutely, I won't tolerate that kind of crap in this story. Part of my thinking is as reborn semi-mortals the gods would gain more human sensibilities. That doesn't make them saints by any stretch, but it would definitely make them hesitant to do stuff they would have casually done in their...

Yes, new children with new original powers is definitely a possibility.

Damn, lot of responses since I've been gone. I'll try and answer what I can individually. I'm happy to see my idea has garnered a lot more interest since I've been away.

I seriously considered that idea, but that could get huge really quick. Not sure I'd want to handle that all by myself. If enough people would want that I wouldn't mind a collaborative effort, or perhaps even a rpg concept.
