I finished reading The Song of Achilles (great book, hugely recommended), and it reminded me of my love for Ancient Greece and Greek myths, which I hadn't pursued in a while. So basically, welcome to this rp! Not everything here is going to be 100% historically correct, I'm pretty sure none of us are professional historians, but please try your best to be as accurate as you can :)

Some rules:
dn't be rude. If you act in a way that I think is not okay, you're out, don't argue

swearing is allowed

anything remotely steamy or dirty does not belong here

you know what else doesn't belong here? IRL sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, ANY KIND OF HATE

if I've seen you do things on other chats or rps that I do not think is okay, I am allowed to say no when you ask to join

ASK BEFORE JOINING

lgbt+ is hella allowed

shipping is also allowed, but we're going to write it in as we go, not pre-determine ships, and we're not starting any crush stuff between our characters until at least page 6.

If a bit you post is going to have intense abuse or self harm, or etc, please write (TRIGGER WARNING) above it

please try to be as accurate as possible, do your research

descriptive posts on physical, verbal, and psychological abuse/self harm/etc are allowed, but again, put a trigger warning

if your character has undergone sexual abuse, do not go into detail about the scenes. If they have flashbacks about it, don't be overly descriptive. Obviously you can mention it, but be sensitive

you know what, imma repeat that last bit: BE SENSITIVE

BE RESPECTFUL

I am allowed to ask you to delete a post or leave.

no IRL fighting. If someone is being rude, then obviously call them out on it. But don't throw around unnecessary insults.

please don't make up a character on the spot for this, have a relatively developed one please

don't control other people's characters

ask permission before hurting another character

actually read these rules before asking to join

age limit is 16 to 22

OCs only

No Mary Sues

please avoid one liners… you aren't expected to write a paragraph every time it's your turn, but keep away from single sentences

I'll put up a template if anyone feels like joining :)

@blue_topaz

She’s great, love her!
just maybe look into making the name more suitable to the time
I gtg so I’ll post my form when I get back

@blue_topaz

Also @Autumn, for her to be a healers apprentice and female she’d either have to be very close family friends with the healer, pretend to be a boy, or have a very powerful family.
