Mythpowers Roleplay: Thinking Caps, Activate!

Here is the plot.

I've used it before.

Zaleramancer wrote
In Mount Olympus, Home of the great and mighty Olympians, a simple disagreement between the brother-gods Poseidon, Zeus, and Hades has escalated until it verges on out-right war! With the gods and goddesses choosing sides, and chaotic Eris spreading strife among them, The situation looks like the beginning of a war unlike any before.

 Just as it seems that open hostilities will break out, the wise Athena presents them with an alternative. Part entertainment, and part contest, She proposes that the immortals choose mortals and empower them with a portion of their abilities and to the gods and goddesses of the victorious, goes a prize unlike any other. A seat on Olympus!

 Now the gods and goddesses go forth to choose to choose their chosen, all seeking the singular prize.
So.. Basically it would work out like this.

You are a normal person, doing whatever, when a god/goddess pops up and offers you power, rewards, ect..

You gain one of the mythpowers. (It can't be one for a titan/monster/hero, only deities)

The Twelve Olympians themselves are also off limits. Why? Because each of them will be presenting a different challenge for the mortal heroes (That would be you).

In between these challenges, you will be able to go about your normal lives (Unless the other mortals decide to get rid of you before the next challenge).

Shad will be my co-leader-GM-dude. Because I'm going to need his help for the personalities of some of the more obscure divinities.
SO LET THE PLAN-INNING BEGIN!

Wulf: Any Lore I need to know for my power?
Romans 8:31 What, then, shall we say in response to this? If God is for us, who can be against us?

1 Corinthians 13:1-3 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.

Excellent Choice!

An aura of laziness is bound to be useful.

So, what shall your character be like?

Great!

Now I just need a name and four words that describe your character.
