Topic: Camp Half-Blood - We Need Campers!

[Jag]

“Keeping Young Heroes Safe from Harm (Mostly) For Over Three Millennia"

"I suppose I must say hello to you and tell you a bit about the camp since you managed to avoid being killed by the monsters and got across the boarder...I'm Mr. D, you're camp director. I'm not your friend and I don't want to hear your sob story about how you miss your mortal parent or how you feel abandoned by your Olympian parent. So stop your whining or I'll feed you to the cleaning harpies. Till we know who your Olympian parent is, you'll be staying in Cabin Eleven. All undecideds go there. Don't go sayin' I'm your father, I've been in this infernal place for over twenty years, so that won't work. Anyways, I'll let Hay-for-Breath over here take over."

"Hello, Children, I'm Chiron, your friendly activities director and centaur. I understand that some of you must of been shocked to suddenly find yourselves being attacked by monsters of all kinds and then picked up by a Satyr and brought here. It really is for your own good. You're the half-blood children of the gods and monsters find that kind of flesh very tasty. We will ask you not to step outside the boundaries of the camp, as we cannot insure your safety outside of the camp.

Now, I'm going to ask you all to stand up straight and tell me your names. If you know who your Olympian parent is, please say so. Don't lie, the cabins will know if you're lying. If you tell me you're a daughter of Zeus and you're not, then Zeus's cabin will reject you. So it's best to be honest...Come now, don't be shy..."

"Chiron here, again, just wanted to give you a few things before you head off to either you cabin or the Hermes' cabin. Remember, for those of you that are unclaimed, you will be staying in Hermes' cabin. Hermes' accepts all since he is the God of Travel, but remember he is also the God of Thieves. Many of his children have been claimed and live in there. Please keep your personal possessions very close to you. Now here are your maps and your rope necklace. If you manage to live through the summer...now, now, don't cry, I'm sure you'll live...you will receive a bead to put on it. I also wanted to warn you that while curfew is more of a suggestion, the cleaning harpies do take it seriously. If you plan on sneaking around after 11o'clock, then be sure to take a weapon and be sure you can run fast. Camp Half-Blood can not be held responsible for loss or life or limbs to the harpies if you're out after curfew...Now off you go and good luck with Capture the Flag..."

Stuff:

• If you're unclaimed, we'll discuss in PM who you want your parent to be and organize something to help you get claimed.
• If you're claimed, you'll have to attempt to earn the respect of your Olympian parent through winning events.
• Over all, have fun. Your Olympian parent couldn't keep it in their pants, why should you?
• Quests must have three characters and a story line.

Question: Are we playing in a classical period or a more modern one?

[Ashes]

Despite my choice of character picture. Looking at the threads in the orignal post, it looks modern setting to me.

[Jag]

Yes. It is a modern setting. Abigale is currently holding Vincent's iPod hostage, so yeah, modern. ^^

I've add both your profiles to the character's thread. Feel free to post in the OOC thread if you want to. I'm working on the post to bring everyone up to speed right now. Once that is up, you two (and everyone else) can start posting. ^^
