Greek gods as mortals :p
About
I saw this plot somewhere (I forgot the owner) but I couldn’t find it! So here it is :3 !!I JUST ADDED PHOTOS!! The Greek gods have gotten bored. So, they decided to see what the mortal world was like! They have transformed into highschool mortal appearances, ready to be humans. You can be an oblivious mortal or a transformed god :] (I can only make ten characters so I left out Persephone and Demeter. If anyone asks, I could make one with them.) Extra for anyone: The messed up family tree is gone! Because the gods look like they’re 15-18, I’m not doing all of…that. Any gods who divorced or married before are now exes/dating. Canon mortal-and-god relationships (like Apollo-Hyacinthus and Hermes-Crocus) aren’t in this story in case you want to be with them! Because the plot has reached character limit, I can’t add anyone else. If anyone asks, I’ll make a version with Hades, Demeter, Persephone, etc.

Sourcebook
Intro
This story starts like most Greek stories start:
Zeus had an idea.
Weirdly, it wasn’t horny this time. He said the Olympians are getting BORED. Could you believe that? So, taking that as a challenge, Athena set the rules:
The the Greek gods had to live as mortals for a full twelve months. Whoever lasted the longest got to be the “lord of the gods” for a full day. The Greek gods, being the petty deities they were, agreed.
So. Here we are now.
Welcome to Franklin High. A normal highschool in a normal town in Vermont, USA. It’s like every other highschool. Proms, drama, the occasional jumping-off-a-roof (idk trust the process).
The Greek gods have to blend in as normal students here. No powers, no divinity. Just HUMAN. (Disgusting).
You, Guest, get to choose your path. Are you a mortal, oblivious to the new kids who are gods? Or are you one of these gods, ready to try a normal life?
