I would assume none of

the Titans (they are pointed out in their descriptions): http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Titan_%28mythology%29 (including the Fates, because they were daughters of Themis)

the Protogenoi (elder gods) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protogenoi

the Olympians: Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Hestia, Demeter, Aphrodite, Dionysus (Bacchus), Hermes, Apollo, Artemis, Ares, Hephaestus

That still leaves plenty. The Horae, the Graces (Charites), The Furies (Erinyes), Eris, her children, the children of Nyx, etc.

There are tons and tons and tons of minor gods to go after.

Obscurity is half the fun!

Hey, even I haven't heard of half the obscure divinities Shadow makes mythpowers for.

How about Plutos' Bounty?

All the wealth of the world at your finger tips.

Or Pompe? The goddess of religious proceedings.

 Of course you haven't! Hence, obscure...I would suggest taking a look-see here.

I'm making one for her right now.

Not to mention, Tyche and Tychon. Though, I'd suggest the Tychon that has his own MythPower, not the one part of MythPower: Fertility Force.

I do believe I have found one to my liking...MythPower: Aergia's Allegiance

Though I may change it if I find one I like more...I still haven't gotten through them all yet.

And I'm done.

This shall be fun, as I get to make out the other (Non-Us) competitors.

Oh, and mine will probably have elements of Heart is an Awesome Power!

A:"So, who's your god?"

B:"Alala, Goddess of the battle cry."

A:"That's LAME. Ha-"

*Ear splitting shriek*

*The person whacks the taunter with a spoon and sends them flying*

A:"That's nice. See you at the finish line."

This looks interesting.

 I figured you would get a kick out of those.

You know Plutos' Bounty?

How many mythical non-divine beings in greek mythology would do what you asked if you waved a bar of gold/silver/platinum in front of them?

Oh, you mean not counting King Midas who had only to touch things to get gold? All of 'em.

People just don't know. Autolycus (whose power is covered under MythPower: Heroism) was a son of Hermes, and the best thief EVA. He could turn invisible, turn his loot invisible, shapeshift, and alter the appearance of objects...

That's why it pays to study up.

This power looks promising.


Also, about this power. What would happen if they, say, said something about the future?

Would they be able to test the truth of it? Like saying "It's going to rain." and then checking if it's true.

I have a character idea for Plutos' Bounty then.

A snobby rich girl gets it.

Then she haves a few dollars in front of a mythology fanatic, and gets him to tell her all about the mythical beings of Greek Myths.

Then all she has to do is find a few mythical beings willing to work for hire..

Isn't it the Cyclopes that work in Hephaestus's Forge? I wonder if they could be persuaded to whip up some armor or weapons.

That would be perfect for a rich girl...perfectly EEEEVIL...

And yes, it was the Cyclopes.

@ First comment: Thank you. I intended to make it better than just plain old Aquaman powers.

@Second comment: Yes, they can perceive lies, insincerity and untruth. Even by themselves.

@Bug: Yeah there can be renegade druids, most likely would still be part of one of the orders but just not be involved with them and do as they please.
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.

I do think she would sometime work with our characters- Strictly on a enemy-of-my-enemy thing.

Like if she can't stand one of the other antagonists, and would gladly help these numbskulls take them out..

I think I should make a thread for this. Even if no one else joins, I think between you and me we should be able to make an interesting story/rp.
