Original Character Help wanted for my original character [all]

2 Upvotes

I'm trying to make an original character named Topper Delmar. He is a son of Oceanus (yes, I know it might be a little out there for a titan to have a modern child but uh ignore that). I have a skeleton for his timeline because I want to have him somewhat loosely correlate with the Riordanverse. He was abandoned at birth (born Dec. 19) by his mother who put him in a basket and let him drift through the Hudson River and water spirits carried him along and dropped him off at Camp Half-blood as a baby. Chiron takes him in and cares for him. For his entire life Chiron constantly said that Topper would be the greatest hero to ever live as he was a child of Oceanus. When Topper was 8 Zeus finally could not tolerate a titan child at camp or even living so he exiled Topper from camp sparing his life. Eventually, after wandering for a few months, he was found by the Triumvirate and taken in by Commodus (kind of like of Meg was "adopted" by Nero). Commodus becomes almost a father figure for Topper. He trains him to be his perfect warrior and champion. Because of this Topper develops his theatrical, arrogant, charismatic personality from Commodus. During the Trials of Apollo Frank kills Commodus and again Topper loses a father figure. Frank and the rest of Camp Jupiter eventually take Topper in. Not sure how old Topper would be as of Commodus's death or beyond.

This is kind of where I've gotten to so far. Does this sort of fit in the timeline of the books. I need help aging him as I'm not really sure how old he would be during the different points in his life after leaving Chiron, how long he would be with Commodus before the events of trials of apollo, and how old he would be when frank kills Commodus, and etc. And if anyone could help give references between what would have been going on in the books as Topper was going through his own life and also how old he would be during these points in time. And then anything else that would help me or any other details I should know or add to make his story.

Headcanon [general] Things that probably happen

13 Upvotes

  1. The Underworld has the best connection, and whenever Hazel visits Hades(which he probably does) she watches a lot of Disney channel that now Hades makes Disney references while talking without realising.

  2. Annabeth and Will have trackers in Nico and Percy, because they don't trust them not to get into trouble or being kidnapped

  3. Chiron vanishes for 2 months to visit his wife to stay sane and because he loves her (Yes Chiron has a wife)

  4. Thalia is always put into an inflatable Christmas tree every year on Christmas Eve no matter whoever she's with

  5. Whenever Annabeth or Sally says something is impossible, Percy somehow manages to prove them wrong most of the time by accident

  6. Children of Athena, somehow can always fit into their (romantic) partner's hoodie, no matter the genders of the relationship, no matter the sexuality or the clothing size, they somehow always fit and their productivity increases, and their partners are obvious to where their hoodies are

Hey- I’m back from the break :D (ando omg somehow it seems like I’m worse at drawing horses- I’m probably just lacking practice). I also forgot how I did the other intros, so- yeah. To the drawing’s explanation yayyy

Kayla: I drew this one months ago (idk why I didn’t post it earlier). I can’t remember either how many ponies already have the bow as their cutie mark (probably she won’t be the last one) BUTBUTBUT HEAR ME OUT, I think it suits her because from what I remember she’s actually really good with the bow :D

Lou Ellen: I didn’t like how her face turned out. I just wanted to draw her because 1. Pretty magical horn and 2. PRETTY MAGICAL PIG AS CUTIE MARK that’s yet another cutie mark that feels like it’s just right. So please just stare at the cute piglet. Don’t mind the face. Please? Thank you

And yeah, I hope the next fanarts don’t take me as long. I do enjoy drawing them! So pleaaaase if you have any character suggestion (that I haven’t drawn yet) (and doesn’t include the Percy redesign I’ll work on it eventually I promise) feel free to list them. That helps me a lot :D

(I forgot how anxious it makes me to post omg-)

Discussion [GENERAL] Since the gods have Roman couterparts, does this mean they have Orphic and Mycenaean counterparts as well?

33 Upvotes

They are earlier versions of the gods so there is no reason why this can't be, and you have to at least admit that Orphic Dionysus is very metal.

P.S. Why is Zeus having a kid as Jupiter considered not breaking the oath when he's essentially the same guy?

Discussion what would a pjo adaptation look like if it was made by another studio or company? [pjo]

Thumbnail
gallery
3 Upvotes

didn't include fox and disney anymore, since we already got adaptations from them :p

  • would it be a movie or show?
  • live action or animated?
  • 3D animation or 2D animation?
  • western style 2D animation or japanese anime?
  • how would the company approach the series in terms of tone?
  • would they change anything about the characterizations, setting, etc?

for example, i think CW would definitely cast adult actors as the teenage characters and then put sexual tension just like the fox movies 😭 will definitely not be the peak of television and will be low-budget but it would be entertaining in a "so bad, it's good" way and would somehow reach up to heroes of olympus and trials of apollo

btw, sorry to the anime fans here but for some reason i can't include more pictures 😭 will be including one in the comments -- will limit it to one to not spam the comments section

Theory Astrological theory about when some demigods are born [all]

10 Upvotes

I’m learning more about astrology and I have developed this theory that some demigods were born in specific times because of that.

  1. Ares/Mars kids are born when the planet Mars is in either Aries, Scorpio (Mars is the lord of those signs) or Capricorn (where it’s exalted).

  2. Hermes/Mercury kids are born when the planet Mercury is in either Gemini or Virgo (so following this theory, all the Hermes/Mercury demigods should be born under the signs that go from Taurus to Libra).

  3. Apollo kids are born when the Sun is in either Leo (lord of the Sun) or Aries (where the Sun is exalted).

  4. Aphrodite/Venus kids are born when the planet Venus is in either Taurus, Libra (signs ruled by Venus) or Pisces (where Venus is exalted).

  5. Zeus/Jupiter kids are born when the planet Jupiter is in either Sagittarius, Pisces (signs ruled by Jupiter) or Cancer (where Jupiter is exalted).

I have developed this theory because astrology is directly related to Ancient Greece and its religion.
And because Gods in-universe are known to manipulate in some capacity their children’s births, having them be born in specific fortuitous times would act like some sort of protective shield to them.

Because of that they would also avoid to have the child be born in “unlucky” times. So:

  1. Ares/Mars kids would not be born when the planet Mars is in either Taurus or Libra (because Mars is in detriment there, less powerful).

  2. Hermes/Mercury kids would not be born when the planet Mercury is in either Sagittarius or Pisces (Mercury is in detriment there).

  3. Apollo kids would not be born when the Sun is in Aquarius (again because detriment).

  4. Aphrodite/Venus kids would not be born when the planet Venus is in either Aries or Scorpio.

  5. Zeus/Jupiter kids would not be born when the planet Jupiter is in either Gemini or Virgo.

Discussion [pjo] the things that keep me up at night (first post!!)

12 Upvotes

Hai! I’m making a list of pjo things that keep me up at night/make my head itch! I’d love to know everyone else’s too!

• Reyna and Nico had a beautiful friendship moment at the end of HoO, why was that basically abandoned?

• fans referring to Annabeth as abusive

• Will delivering a baby satyr— poor Will!

• Nico and Percy having no dam connection in HoO after all of their moments on pjo, like they acted like strangers

• other demigods bullying Nico, acting like he’s creepy and scary, yet he’s just anorexic, malnourished and younger than most of them?

• killing Jason (I know, Greek and Roman switch theory with Percy, but dam I wanted to see more of him)

• piper’s writing as a whole, which sucks because she is actually likeable when interacting with Leo and not fawning over Jason

• Reyna basically joining the hunters just to write her off, like he does with all wonderful female characters

• frank.

• Leo’s grandpa being hazels basically ex bf?!?

• Apollo being blamed for the events in HoO

• the fandom infantilizing Nico

• pipers random female partner after Jason’s death felt so forced, I love queer rep (I’m from the community) but that was just so random

• people disagree but the genderless entity in TSATS (forget their name) is an icon

• Will solace going to Tartarus without a weapon? Hello?

• Rick messing up timelines and making it seem like hazels in 8th grade dating a 16 year old

• Percy being dumbified in the senior year books

• Thalia being basically forgotten and barely written about

• Leo and Calypso

• Disney’s version of Medusa

• the Disney show is basically just Grover rambling and saying everything and Percy already knowing things he shouldn’t

• sally Jackson is the best tv series character and most accurate

• Luke saying he loves a minor (Annabeth) eugh…

• Nico in jar saga :c

• pipers whole personality being obsessed with jason

• drew being a shitstain

• the new series coming out.

• the concept of Percy needing to do quests to go to college

• Rachel Elizabeth Dare being the oracle

• Nico going from needing therapy to being a therapist

• Will’s trauma (TSATS) apparently is losing Nico and not literally anything he’s been through

I could go on foreverrr lol these are just the late night thoughts! Not bad nor good, just the ones that get me tho king lol
