BIOGRAPHY

You hadn’t seen this much love in one world since you discovered yourself. Your mother visited a seer when you were born, but it was you who gave a warning to the seer instead. It was said that you would have a long life if you never discovered yourself. Little did they know you would win a staring contest with your own reflection. You were a hunter, but each time you killed an animal, they had to resist the urge to thank you. Roses stopped to smell you. You can kill two stones with one bird. Your garden maze was responsible for more missing persons than the Bermuda Triangle. You once made a weeping willow laugh. You were loved by complete strangers who expected you to just love them in return. Echo, the mountain nymph, and Ameinias, the hunter, spurned because they did not know you. Nemesis, the goddess, lured you to a pool of water. The only reason you were thirsty was because you were curious as to how it felt. Just like your only regret is not knowing what regret feels like.

Destined to love yourself because of a petty god, you faded from existence only to find yourself within Elysium. It was the only place you thought good enough for your presence. You lived alone on a hill, surrounded by the flowers that were named after you, the memory of past lovers that would come and go. If opportunity were to knock and you were not home, opportunity would wait. You could steal thunder’s thunder, and Dionysus knew that. You and he had your fun together, but the god understood the desires of love, and gave you a chance at a life again. Pushed from the veil when it was patched back up, this is your moment to thrive. You live vicariously through yourself. You are the life of parties that you haven’t even attended. You are...the most narcissistic man in the world.

BIOGRAPHY

One of the four originators of the Aztec underworld, you were the god of providence. You were the representation of the silent wind, and the representation of the thunderous war. You were also called the Smoking Mirror; in reference to the obsidian that was forged by your hand first, put upon earth to show your ability to see all evil behaviors committed by your people. You were also a nagual, and there were times you’d walk among your people as a jaguar, the most sacred of animals to you and them. You were associated with many different concepts, but it was war that your people relied on, and that’s where they turned to you. The Toxcatl ceremony was what you demanded, and your people always provided. Sacrifice was what kept you alive, and the ability of rebirth was your own.

Your battles with your brother, Quetzalcoatl, were felt throughout the underworld. It was a consistent event, though you both were reborn as your festivals were held during the year. However, when your people’s kingdom fell, so did yours. The sacrifices ended, and when you died, your soul was within the Omeyocan, looked over by the dual god that had given birth to you. It was there you remained, watching as the world changed and adapted. When other deities began to be free from their bindings, you found yourself pushed from the Omeyocan. Rebirth was given to you once more by Ōmeteōtl. Now that you have another chance, you are pushed into a world that you do not know, and a conflict that does not involve you.

BIOGRAPHY

In Crete they called you Queen, and you were one of the firsts to call yourself a patron to the Goddess of both death and spring: Persephone. But you were betrayed, and your husband was turned into the first of the vrykolakas. His once pure heart was corrupted so he would love only Persephone and you were left alone so that he could wander the world spreading the darkest of curses. In your grief your affections were turned towards a God who promised you vengeance, Zeus, he named you his oracle and from your lips you volleyed the words of the highest King to his loyal servants at Minos. But this affair was not without consequence and brought the ire of the Queen of Olympus upon you. Hera could not strike against her own husband so she came for your children instead, they were struck from the Earth, and the boon that Zeus left you with was a curse that twisted you into the monster that later stories painted you as. Sorrow carved the form that you took, a woman who appeared as a serpentine creature who’s endless nightmares kept her from ever truly finding rest.

Hypnos, in his pity, gave you the ability to wander the dreams of others so that you might find escape from the terrors that haunted you. But you were not without your own power, you became a figure that the Greeks would whisper about under hushed breath, a story to frighten children: be home before dark or the Lamia will devour you. But mortals never needed to fear you, it was the Gods themselves who first began the rumours of your terror, and it is the Gods themselves who needed to work to keep their divine children beyond your reach. Bellerophon who dreamt of being the greatest hunter of beasts, fell and broke his back, Herakles who thought once he might become a God, went mad and murdered his family, and brave Achilles who believed he could never be killed, was felled by a single arrow. For your actions you were hunted by the original shifters and sent to the Underworld, it’s there you were made to linger at the crossroads, unable to find peace until Hypnos used the reparation of the veil to force your shade through the point where it was first formed: the Temple of Apollo.

BIOGRAPHY.

You were left to die. Your father was a king, and he wanted an heir. Left on a mountaintop days after your birth, it was Artemis who heeded your cries. She ensured you were taken care of and raised properly, and it was to her whom you owed your life. Swearing an oath to her, you were the greatest huntress in all of Greece. You slew Centaurs, you defended women from those who would cause them harm. You craved adventure, and you roamed Greece as it pleased you. It was your name that was commended for slaying the mighty Calydonian Boar, and you who wore the pelt in honor. You were the only woman to sail with Jason and the Argonauts, your talent unmatched even among men. You dared any man to race you, refusing marriage until someone proved themselves worthy. 

When you lost, you kept your word. But you and your husband were envied – Rhea decided that you would not have any happiness, and she turned you into a Lion. It was Artemis who brought your soul to Elysium when you died. She had not forgotten your oath, and in turn, she rewarded you with a life among the gods. Now, however, your strength was required to protect your goddess’ creations. The shapeshifters are yours to protect against the tearing of the veil. For if it is gone, they would no longer exist, and you do not want to see that happen, as you have already mourned Scylla and Fenrir. His revival to the living world has given you more reasons to protect those you love.

Can shift into any animal of her choice.

NAME. UTP ( Patroclus ) AGE & BIRTH DATE. 3,000+ & Unknown GENDER & PRONOUNS. Male & He/Him SPECIES. Rift OCCUPATION. UTP. FACE CLAIM. Zac Efron.

BIOGRAPHY.

You committed murder at a young age out of jealousy, banished from your kingdom, and destined to become another prince’s companion. This did not phase you, however. You had learned how to cope with your temper, and instead, you became irreplaceable. War was not your favorite, and in fact, you could have done without it. But your mastery of the craft was rivaled only by your prince, Achilles. You loved him, and you followed him into Troy, where you knew you would draw your last breath. It was Achilles’ destiny to die, but not without you. You, who knew him like no other, and who could see an unworthy king in the eyes of Agamemnon. But you did not argue, nor did you shy away. Yet you were defeated at the hands of Hector, and your body was held by Achilles for far too long. You were between life and death, unable to pass on Charon’s boat. It was Nyx who came to you – her secrets were yours, as she had not had a visitor in what felt like centuries. Yet when it became too much to bear, you mastered a spirit form and appeared to Achilles – begging for death. 

When you finally passed to Elysium, you waited for him. Achilles joined you, and your afterlife was complete. That is, until Nyx asked for your aid. The veil had been torn, an earthquake shattering the world of the living – the world you hadn’t visited in centuries. Nyx’s children needed help. A promise you’d made centuries ago, that you wouldn’t let her creatures fade into obscurity. And that maybe you would be able to help them.

BIOGRAPHY.

Your father was blessed by the gods and chosen by a nymph. You never knew your mother, but your father spoke of her like she was the most beautiful creature he had ever seen. You grew up on a farm, and you dedicated your life to poetry. As a shepherd, you’d bask under the Laurel trees and write down words that held meaning to yourself. You caught the attention of Hermes, and with him, you became the inventor of poetry. Hermes was enamored, and he bestowed on you a ring. With it, you had his favor and a way to speak with the god, to call for help if ever needed. You lived your life blissfully unaware of what happened in the world around you. Your small farm seemed big enough, yet the gods are greedy, and take all that they can. It was then that a naiad entered your life – Nomia – and she made a vow that if you would be faithful to her, then she would be to you, as well. And you tried. But seduction was a fool’s game, and you were only mortal. Hermes would call, and you would answer. Betrayed, Nomia blinded you. She nearly turned you to stone before Hermes came to your aid. Banishing Nomia, Hermes was able to stop your imminent death. What he didn’t, however, was restore your sight. 

You lived the rest of your life in darkness, unable to read the words you’d written out of love. Upon entering Elysium, however, Hermes was able to gift you your sight, and there, you followed your own flocks of sheep across the beautiful world of the gods. More recently, however, you were pushed from the veil. Bid by Hermes to be his own eyes among the supernatural creatures of Corinth Bay. You were his herald, now, and you would do anything for him. 

ABILITIES.

Hermes’ Ring: This ring has the ability to stop time. However, it drains his energy the longer he keeps it activated. It’s used to escape trouble. 

Immortal.

Has heightened senses, an effect from being blind when he was mortal.

BIOGRAPHY

You were a beautiful maiden who wanted only what all women wanted. Someone to love, someone to have a home with, someone to bare children with. What you hadn’t wanted was the eyes of Poseidon to find you that fateful day. Turning away his advances, he cursed you, and in desperation, you ran to the temple of your goddess, Athena. Poseidon had taken everything from you with that curse, and when you begged Athena for her help, she looked upon you with disgust. It was then, while you were lying within her temple, broken and ruined, she cast her powers onto you. Your beautiful hair turned to serpents and, what you would come to learn soon enough, your touch became so terrible that the mere grace of your fingers would turn others into stone. She cursed you, when you had done nothing but beg for her help. It would not be long before you came to resent the Gods, when you vowed that their demise would come with the help of your own hands. But you would not come to see that day, for your life was taken when Perseus used the gifts given to him by the Gods to steal it from you. Or so it would seem. For though your head remained on the shield of Zeus, it was with Perseus’ last breath that life was restored to you. Once more, you were given the opportunity to enact the revenge that you so seek on the Gods, the ones that ruined your life and saw to ending it so that they would not have to deal with you any longer.

So as the veil began to rip and tear, when the supernatural that had been crafted by those that had ruined you were called back, you vowed to ruin what they held so dear. You vowed to stop the healing of the veil, to bring it down once and for all, to watch each of their children and precious creations be stricken from this world.

ABILITIES

Cannot be compelled or cursed.

BIOGRAPHY

You were chosen, one among four, to be favored by the highest of Gods. To protect the human realm from those that sought to ruin it. You were gifted powers beyond your wildest imagination, and among them, the greatest gift of all: to transform yourself into that of the Nemean Lion. With golden fur impervious to attack, and claws sharper than a mortal’s sword, you were tasked by Artemis herself to protect those that could not protect themselves. From supernaturals that sought only to harm. You could never have anticipated the vengeance you felt, which only seemed to fester when your brother, Fenrir, chose a mortal life. You cast him aside without so much as a quarrel, adamant on upholding the task that he found himself incapable of. And you did just that, keeping an eye on the humans while creating your own line of shifters. From lions to tigers to feral cats, you crafted your children so that they may hold their own against vampires and cubi and other such supernatural that wished to teeter the balance of the world. But news came suddenly, a shift in the world’s order: the death of your sister, Scylla. Fenrir had chosen to cast away his immortality, but your sister? She had no such desire, yet her demise had come swiftly. And so you sought to find her killer in the streets of Corinth Bay, to call upon your children to come fight by your side, and discover who was capable of killing such an immortal creature.
