New Olympia
"They're just saying it's love, but it isn't really love, is it? Nonetheless, karma is such a thing of beauty." - Achilles.
A humanist group known as New Oylmpia is looking for recruits! A group founded by the former Greek Hero known as Achilles (now known as Howl), it is designed for two purposes. The first being the overall downfall and destruction of the Pantheon of all religions, cultures, and nations. The second is to rid Earth of any being that isn't of human origin. The former and latter aren't to be done with negotiation or treaties, but with excessive amounts of force as a first resort rather than the last. An organization of Human Elitist, New Olympia ONLY takes those who are A.) Human or B.) Metahuman or a mutation that spawned in their DNA, nonetheless they are mostly still human.
While the death of all the Pantheon, deities, and aliens are their concern in general, their utmost and foremost priority is to bring down the Greeker Good, or the Greek Pantheon. The reason for this is due to the fact that they, as a group of human elitist, feel as if they could do a greater job in governing the world than those who don't understand what it means to exist in the human condition. This is in addition to the fact that the Greeker Good has been playing with humans as if they were toys since the beginning of their inception. But no more they say! As it is time for humans to govern themselves once more, free from the hands and interference of those whose who have tortured them throughout time.
New Oylmpia, in all its arrogance, is named after the mountain from which the Zeus once presided over. Yet to add more insult to injury, each member is known as a "God of _______". Sometimes even having an overlapping title as one of the currently existing Greek Pantheon. A well-trained militia of twelve, they are warriors for humankind, and antagonist to everything that isn't that. Led by an elitist mind state, their objective cannot be halted, the war of Man vs God is now at hand. Nonetheless, aside from hunting down aliens, Gods, and otherworldly beast, New Olympia is still concerned about aiding humankind where ever possible, performing heroic deeds whenever necessary.
Note: As a note, understand that while this is indeed a plot driven organization that is meant to combat the eccentric species, aliens, etc etc, New Oylmpia is combat/conflict driven. There will be times where Gods, aliens, and beast are explicitly hunted to be killed...not told a Shonen story, but killed. It is a PK forward group, we do things by force, nothing else. We take, we don't ask. So if this isn't for you, then pass up. Predators not prey. The only "Gods" to be respected are creation Gods like Gaea, since they essentially made humankind to begin with. Also, your "God of ______" name should have something to do with their ability or what they embody. As stated above, it doesn't have to be a pre-existing title, though it can be. Try to keep it encompassing and not specific. Do not pick the same name as someone else! Also, recruiting will be done ICly, though I can still reserve your spot here today!
New Olympic "Gods":
- Achilles (Howl) - God of War
- Claire (Katakana) - God of Art
- Zanii (Boogey) - God of Death
Hero Training!
New Olympia needs apprentices! And more than just an apprentice, but Heroes in Training. My ideal circumstance would be people of any group (Heroes, Villians, Vigilante, Civilian) that are mostly untrained in combat, don't have unlocked abilities, those without confidence, etc. Raw prospects to develop. Obviously they'll teach you the things listed above (and be a mentor to mental growth), and as they grow they'll be given missions and goals to complete to show how well their training is progressing. Hero development will VERY focused on threading with their mentor (the New Olympian), the other New Olympians, and the other apprentices until you're ready! The philosophy of New Olympia is also employed during Hero Training, thus you cannot be a hero in training if you're anything besides human or metahuman. But to note, some of the New Olympic training methods are rather...extreme, so be prepared for his many trials that will make you great, a Hero remembered in time. The goal is not only to create more warriors to defend humankind, but possibly ascend to take a seat in New Olympia. There is one Hero apprentice per New Olympian (we use the buddy system!)

Finally, someone that understands the current problem!
Claire Araki hates heroes, sure, but there's a burning hatred inside of her towards the heroes that are gods or aliens. If they have such magnificent powers, and care so much about humans, why don't they utilize them?! They're nothing more than scum, looking to bask in glory and adoration. They need their lives drawn to a close.
Sign her up! I really like the direction this could be heading, and it gives her a chance to kill even more heroes. Put her down as "Goddess of Arts." Whoever is the deity of that is surely lacking...
HOWL,

\o/ Woot! Sounds good to me! I think katakana will be perfect! I could start a thread to recruit her like ASAP, as it seems she already has the will to eliminate the Pantheon and has a similar view to humans reclaiming their place on Earth. |

((tagging GAEA bc 2 lazy 2 switch accounts)) hatred of gods u say? what are their thoughts on the mother of gods? Gaea is atm dealing w/ the Phoenix force but after that she will return to trying to kill off humanity and any of her godly children that get in her way. So maybe she could work with the "New Olympians" when it comes to killin off her bbys? Just an idea, bc uh u know, it'd be better to have gaea as an ally than an enemy. |

Ironically I thought of GAEA when I was thinking of this plot. According to Achilles, the "All-Mother" is the only God-like being to be respected, as she is the one who created humankind to begin with. So he considers it like she created human beings to correct the mistake of having created/given birth to the Greek Pantheon. So I'm with the New Olympians joining forces with Gaea to help wipe out her mistake! And unlike her children, we'll actually love and respect the All-Mother instead of trying to find a reason to cast a stone and hide our hand. I also enjoy the idea that the creator chooses mankind over her horrid kids, nephews, and nieces lol. NOVA, |

Extended to 12 Heroes in Training, 1 per Olympian, instead of 3 all being trained by Achilles. Yay! |

WHAT IS HOWLING DOING WITH ALL THIS SUPERPOWERED THINGS
So we've already talked about it and Leo can definitely be pulled into Achilles training him. I don't know about how much of Achilles' ideal he's going to accept though, though I imagine Leo would be impressionable anyway xD Not sure either how Leo would believe Howl is the real Achilles. SO MANY THINGS ONLY INTERACTIONS COULD ANSWER.
So! Let's thread it out and see? Maybe Achilles has been seeing Black Fang from time to time while Leo is in his wolf's mind. Leo might have been doing some vigilante work when Achilles appeared. Black Fang shows some inclination toward Achilles but Leo doesn't do anything and just have to slightly force him to leave. So that when they do meet face-to-face for the first time, they would be familiar with each other already (+ Achilles' attention taken.) Maybe Achilles meets Leo in his civilian identity? Achilles might recognize Leo from the ~scent~ when Leo possessed Black Fang's mind. Then they talk?
...This is unrelated to the group but yeah xD If things go well (which they likely are), he would be one of Achilles' students. |

/o/ I like the idea of molding a homicidal apprentice rather than him just coming like that anyway XD. Sidious x Vader type stuff! But yes, I think that's an excellent idea, since what they seem to have in common is their wolf ties, I think it would be awesome to have found each other via that. So we can pick up post-intrusion on Howling' vigilante stunts being seen by Achilles? If so, whose gonna start le thread?  |

HOWL I've never watched Star Wars so I don't get the reference xD but yes! Post-intrusion.
I can start the wait if you want, and if you don't mind waiting for a bit! Leo would probably bump into Achilles and that's about it haha. Unless my post completely evolves into something different |

NOVA, i like this! im about to add in something to her powers ((she cant kill any of her kids so basically cant kill anyone/thing)) which is why she'll need other ppl to do it for her. this works into my plan of her sorta being like apocalypse as far as getting followers and empowering them, but she wants/needs them so they can go and kill ppl for her. but like by the end im hoping that she starts to care for her various followers/horsemen/whatever i name them and it like humanizes her and doesn't want to completely wipe out the human race. SO maybe that's where the new olympians can fit in? she can power 'em up and shit idk these r ideas. |

GAEA that sounds legit to me, as I'm all for intertwining plots! Also it gives us a leg up to have Gaea backing us so that ya know, there can be weapons, armors, items, empowerment's, etc that I would assume only someone like the All-Mother could endow to make all the New Olympians actually capable of fighting this war and winning it. I have this idea in my head about Achilles himself looking up to Gaea as a sort of mother figure, so maybe this relationship is what spurns the desire to keep some of humanity intact/helps Gaea grow some humanity? Not to mention the whole, humans are actually complicit (regardless of if its because we/they share the same agenda) to a larger degree than her own kids ever were lol. |

Someone who wishes to destroy everything that is wrong with this world? Now that's genius.
Despising heroes already, Zanii always hated how the gods wasted their powers on the world. They could wipe out a whole planet, but yet they choose to protect this forsaken world. He wished to have their power, but since he can't have that, taking it away from them was the next best thing.
To Zanii, aliens themselves had a one up on human kind. Each alien had different traits and most looked down on humans. He can't accept that, especially since some of them have taking earth as a new home. Earth was made for humans to live in, not a bunch of home invaders. If they wouldn't leave, Zanii would be glad to send them to the afterlife.
Being called the God of Death would be a great fit for Zanii, he already carried around a scythe and loved destruction. He might as well be the grim reaper. He's all down for this.

HOWL
Excellent! I can add you up  . I was thinking about dropping in on your heist thread with Achilles, and just using that as a recruiting point, as I had interest in Boogey prior to you posting in this thread! So that actually works out well, as he already seems to have a similar disposition and appetite for chaos and personal goal fulfillment. Also, the whole stripping of power thing really hits home too! HOWL has Werewolf Physiology, as his bite has a nasty habit of making Gods/Aliens (anything non-human) revert to a mortal with human conditions. Just plain people. So I think Boogey would also be a rather good Werewolf as well, if biting him could be a thing! \o/ But that's just a thought, just throwing out sides lol.
