"She said death, though I have to wonder if she did in fact mean eternal punishment. Either way, both sound horrible." She sighed and then her eyes lit up. "Could you take me to the Goddess's grove, you are the first God I have 'seen' in a long time. Surely, you could help me meet others?" she asked.

Although Dusk was 114 years old and a Godess, she was still young compared to the 3 thousand or so year old Zues. She sighed openly and leaped into the water, as she did so. Her feet turned into fins and fins popped out of her arms and her back. She had become some sort of blueish mermaid. She waited for him to come...

ooc:// Yes, original characters are allowed. But did you think to check whether or not the name you picked was already the name of deity whom for all you know is one I worship? I mean, I don't, of course. I study to be a priestess of Danu. But that's not the point. Using the name for a human without knowledge of its origin is fine. But going into a roleplay where people's religions and beliefs are played out, it would be wise to do some bachground research. I never go into a topic without knowing about it.

Also, I never said I was mad. Just a little put off, because you're good at making stories, but not at thinking before you act.

ooc:// I know how you feel, Feyth. My parents are strict Seventh-day Adventist christians. You know, believing in the God of the Old Testament and the Savior of the New Testament, along with all the prophecies heralding His second coming and the coming of New Jerusalem. They had a fit when I left their faith. But it just wasn't right for me. I may be Welsh, but I live in Ohio. Not a lot of pagans here. It's about what feels right, though my friend thinks its funny that I know Celtic and Norse mythology as well as I know the Bible.

It's pretty hilarious.

Detneth: Or you could just pick a different name. Maybe even look up actual goddesses of animals, or goddesses of vengeance. Either would be cool. At least now you know, so that you can brag to your friend's friend that you know that her name comes from a goddess in a long line of sea deities.

[I'm lutheran, though no one in my family has ever been religious. We go to church for christmas and easter (I go to a Swedish Church, where Easter is a big event), but not much else.

As for a new name, I already know that the Goddess of Vengeance (Or Divine Retribution) in the Greek Pantheon is Nemesis, but I don't wish to use that name. Here, let me start afresh with a new goddess. Give a few mintues to get the BIO done. :) ]
