I would like to have a chat sometime in the near future about things like the other pantheons. There's been a lot of talk about JCM pantheon stuff, but if the other gods exist then wouldn't their places exist too? Do their creatures exist as well? Why or why not? How DOES divine power work, in the game? Right now I'm just using my personal theory, but the other pagan gods aren't as weak as Hermes is, so I would like to clear the mechanics up on that.

Is this cool with everyone?

I wonder if I can give my empty slot to you, or something. I really, really want you to play someone now!! Grawr! *frustrationism*

[frstelf.livejournal.com]

I would if I couldn't but I can't!

...Besides that I don't even know who I'd play.

Not Apollo. One sun god is enough kthx.

Eros? I always thought Eros would be like, a Japanese pop/rock star. XD And move back to Britain because he gets bored or something.

......Wait. Eros is Gackt? *dies*

Now I'm tempted if only for the chance go sort through all those pretty Jrockers for icons. XD

[diaktoros.livejournal.com]

Well not as an alter ego or soemthing, no way!! Eros is still a Greek god with all the blond, blue-eyedness! XD But the whole glam-rock thing would totally appeal to him. And the girls and boys squeeing.

[frstelf.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I figured, but Gackt is the first thing to come to mind when I hear Jrock. He does have blond hair a lot though. And what a way to get worshiped again.

Why is blond hair and blue eyes such a big thing with the Greek gods? I've never met a full blooded Greek who who was blond in my life.

Ah no, but the GODS had blond hair, because it was gold, like the sun. And blue eyes for the sky. Blond hair and blue eyes were exotic, but known in the world of the Ancient Greeks. I read somewhere that all the gods had blond hair--it didn't say anything about eye colour, which is why I give Eros red eyes (red for lust and passion and love) and Dionysus has wine-purple eyes--at least, in my head. Hades is the only one where I cannot see him without black hair and black eyes and light grey-blue skin--as though he's been drinking silver nitrate all his life and has argyros (sp?). Hades might also have glittering, gem-like eyes because he rules over them. Demeter would have green eyes, I wager, and Hestia brown ones. This is just my speculation on the matter of eye colour.

Ah, yes, point I suppose. I like your ideas about eye color, but red eyes to me just seems to be more connected to anger and violence. War has red eyes. I don't know what color to say instead, but red just seems too angry to me.

[diaktoros.livejournal.com]

I know, it does. I always held with the idea that Eros was the bastard son of Ares, and has Ares' eyes. Think of it as rose red, not blood red? Blood is candy-apple red, whereas roses are darker.

[frstelf.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I suppose. That could be kinda pretty, actually... I like the older myth of Eros better, though. The one where Eros appeared out of Chaos and so on.

*poketh* Are you on AIM or not? You flickered.

I'm invisible. <_< I should be writing, so I'm invisible. *Jedi wave* You did not see me online.

[frstelf.livejournal.com]

Ah. I was going to suggest an AU thing, if you'd be interested. Like, not really connected to the game.

I have to get to bed, but IM me tomorrow or something? *has question idea thing*
