You are invited to the realm where you can only see in books. Experience Greek mythology. Be the Olympians, the leader of the story, the Titans are wiser and older generations, the Primordial Gods, who are never the leaders but they play important roles as the creators of the realm, and a lot of miscellaneous gods
Be fraternal gods if you want to be in a 'gang', mermaid-like creatures nymphs, superhumans demigods, and last but not least, be the rulers of the land, mortals themselves.
Think myth is just a bedtime story? Then think again.
♣ COUNCIL OF THE GODS ♣ delayed until further notice
Involving the new plot (the mortals starting to forget the gods), the gods need to hold a council, which involves all the gods to attend. We're planning about this.
Due to lack of activity recently and the start of new term, we've decided to delay this. Although we have made the threads about it, we feel like we should wait for other members to come. For now this council will be delayed until further notice. Sorry for the inconvinience.

Image of your character:
Celeb you're using: Diane Kruger
Physical Appearance:
She is middle sized in height. She has beautiful long hair golden like the sunrays in the morning as it covers the whole world in splendour and beauty as her long hair graces her slender body and enchanting smile. Her blue ocean-like eyes seem to look at everything with a curiosity that few girls her age would ever posses. As if the depths of the sea itself were hidden in those glamorous eyes. And perhaps such beauty was always feared by men, who mistaken her for a goddess. Few friends she has because of this and, like her father, she fears the rage of the gods for such beauty can be a blessing or a curse.
Feel the heartbeat
Personality Description:
Andromeda is the kind of woman that was brought up in a palace and brought up to be an intelligent woman and a wonderful bride. And she worked all her life till now and still does to be the best at all the things a woman could be. But deep inside her heart longs for a radical change, a change that could give her a sense of freedom and true love, away from any convention or arranged marriage.
Likes: Freedom, being in nature, justice and sometimes the opposite people would like. She loves poetry and music.
Dislikes: Injustice, one way or another the fact that men are the ones to work and enjoy life in a way women can’t.
Strength: Her intelligence, beauty and the will which makes her do anything for the ones she loves (which is also her weakness).
Weaknesses: Those she loves, not being able to help others sometimes and being unable to change things (her impotence).
Story of my Life
Spouse/Lover: None
Marital status: Single
Family: Father: Cepheus ; Mother: Cassiopeia
History:
Being the daughter of a King was always a blessing for me and I have always been thankful of Athena inspiring such to be; but, I am aware, also, of the price of such life, if we were ever attacked and conquered, for one, I would turn into the slave of the one king or Prince that killed my father and brought ruin to my beloved lands. Of course I always try not to think of such things and am ever loyal to the ancient rites concerning the gods and the duties expected of me.
Though I fear the gods’ lack of patience concerning my own mother, though I am glad she is proud of me and thinks me of a greater beauty, I am afraid one day the gods will revenge on her ‘hybris,’ which is rarely forgiven on mortals. Hybris, being the excess of pride, was always the worst of sins anyone could commit against any of the Greek deities. I always pray for Athena to dissipate such anger and give reason to my mother so she realises how serious it is to tempt the gods. I have always held the highest respect for the gods and always make sure I do as they like; though I have to admit that being a mortal, though I am sure the gods have this too, I have preferences though I always honour them all. My father has cultivated in me strong respect and admiration toward the Holy Archer, Apollo Phebus, the one that inspires the development of the arts and great aim. I have always admired Athena, as well, for representing what she represents: the greatest of wisdom and prudence. But I could never forget Artemis for her wild temper nor Demeter for her benevolence with mortals giving them the key for harvesting and being hungry never again.

Everything looks good and descriptive. I like the way you made the history . Just one question on the history, was she already tied to be eaten by the sea monster? And later saved and married to Perseus?

Thank you
No, that will happen later though I don't think she will marry Perseus (if it is possible to change her story?) I was thinking of another solution to the monster problem
