There are way too many options for a character, have you got any personalities, godly parents, 'powers' etc you would love to have more than anything else? I'm trying to narrow down my options. Haha.
Feel free to take all or parts of the suggestions below. I’ve bolded my favourite choice for each personality.
I’d love to see a determined, ambitious character who’s aiming for the stars, even if they won’t get there - and they’re okay with that. Their god parent hasn’t contacted them, but that isn’t going to stop them from finding out everything about their abilities. They don’t have any training when they come to Cure, which is why they want to find people with similar abilities as them and learn from them. They’re optimistic, charismatic, and work at one of the shops in town.
Daisy Ridley - Roman (Vesta from this post)
Lily James - Norse (Freyja)
John Boyega - Egyptian (Horus)
Rami Malek - Egyptian (Seth)
I’d also love to see a character who is extremely independent and stubborn. They’re not necessarily rude, but they refuse help whenever it’s offered. When they were younger they didn’t receive much assistance and they adopted the mentality that they didn’t need anyone else. They’re the kind of person who believes that it’s hard work, not luck, that leads to success. They seek to better themselves in every way possible (physically, financially, intellectually, etc.) so that they’ll never have to rely on anyone for anything.
Alexander Ludwig - Norse (Odin or Thor)
Katheryn Winnick - Norse (Odin or Ullr)
Jamie Clayton - Norse (Tyr or Ullr)
Oscar Isaac - Greek (Hephaestus), Roman (Mars), or Egyptian (Ptah)
There’s also a wanted connections page that has a few ideas. If you need any more help deciding, don’t hesitate to ask!

What are the special powers granted to the children of Isis?
I’ve just answered this question for Hera, Aphrodite, and Hel. Please refer to that ask as far as powers after training and “Can my character do X with Y training?”
Possible starting abilities for children of Isis include being able to prevent/induce conception, bring small plants and animals on the brink of death back to life, or being able to ease the pain of those in mourning. Some personality traits for children of Isis could include being protective and perceptive.
What are the abilities of children of Hera, Aphrodite, and Hel?
There are no set abilities for demigods. Below I list some possible starting abilities.
Hera: the ability to prevent conception (i.e. if their parent wanted to have another child, but they didn’t want a sibling) or the ability to solve, cause, or worsen relationship problems (restriction: the people must have been interested in each other to begin with)
Aphrodite: the ability to charm others (innate), the ability to slightly alter one’s appearance (appear slightly skinnier, change eye colour, alter skin flaws, etc.), or Alisha’s power from Misfits
Hel: being able to sense if someone is about to die (they may or may not know who) or foreseeing death in dreams (it would take practice to remember the details of these dreams)
I can’t give you a list of what powers a demigod will have after receiving training because there are tons of possibilities. If you’re wondering if a demigod can have a certain power, just send another ask including what that power is and how much training they’ve had. If you need help coming up with powers for a character you’ve already created, just send what you have so far and we can figure out what would work best. (Use Tumblr’s chat to avoid the annoying character limit on asks.)

What kind of powers would a child of Hestia or Vesta have?
Below are some ideas of what demigods of Hestia and Vesta could do. I’ve also included some personality traits demigods could inherit from each of them.
They’re both hearth goddesses, and the hearth symbolizes the home, so they could both have abilities relating to family life. They could have the luck of always having a family. Family in this sense isn’t limited to blood relatives, and could include close friends. They could influence people’s attitude towards family, such as causing someone who has cut off ties with their family to feel loss or longing, or causing someone who has been forcibly cut off from their family not to care. Alternatively, they could fix most damaged family ties.
Hearth in it’s literal sense is a fireplace, so the demigod could recharge faster while around a fire. They wouldn’t be able to mend broken bones, but being around a fire could boost their mood, stamina, and energy.
Hestia is also a food goddess, so if you use her, you could give your character an innate cooking skill. They could also require less food to quench their hunger and never feel stuffed as smaller perks. Personality traits you could include for a child of Hestia, but do not have to, are being passive, non-confrontational, and family-oriented.
Vesta was seen as a protector of Rome, so I’d probably give a child of Vesta the need to protect others, even those they aren’t particularly close with. I can also see a child of Vesta naturally being gifted at teamwork and leadership. The hearth was an extremely important part of family life in Rome; it was seen as the centre of activity and the fire that burned there was the most important. Because of that, I can see children of Vesta being self-centred, vying for attention within their group of friends. Jealousy would compliment that flaw nicely.
I also think that children of Vesta and Hestia would find it easy to keep their household in order. Some people have difficulty balancing household tasks with their job and recreational activities, but I don’t think these demigods would ever experience that.
I hope this helps! If you need any further clarification or are wondering about other gods, feel free to send another ask.

# THE WRITER, THE MUSE, THE BLOG
Viewer discretion advised but this blog is very anti rachel smythe / lore olympus critical for a number of many reasons and that has made it difficult for me to actually fully digest the comic for my own comfort but I'm still determined to get to it one of these days but if you feel the same way or want to read a good retelling of the webtoon, I recommend Lore Rekindled

002. My version of Persephone is extremely canon divergent and will dissect Persephone under a slightly altered narrative regarding her psychology, trauma, etc revolving around an emotionally repressed person that struggles with dissociation in many forms.
003. This blog is going to contain seriously triggering themes. Themes that are meant for a mature audience. Themes include but not limited to: sexual violence, murder, genocide, baby trapping, emotional abuse, reproductive rights, gaslighting, pregnancy, toxic relationships, infantilization, legal age gaps, etc. You have been warned.
