[powers]
[initial effects]
During the first phase, characters will discover who they are. They should all know who they are by the end of the phase. They will not really have controllable "powers" at this point. They will be able to affect things, or know things, but this will not be largely in their control. Below is a list of conceivable "abilities" they might have at this point. N.b. THIS LIST IS IN NO WAY FINAL OR LIMITED. We're open to anything you might think up, within reason, and would like to hear what you think. Let us know if you have any ideas for your character(s) and we'll see how we can work them in!
Amphitrite - aptitude for things relating to the ocean and water in general, natural leader
Anteros - apt at managing relationships and love
Aphrodite - very beautiful and alluring, apt at managing relationships and love
Apollo - gifts with music, literature, the arts, and sports, ties to the sun
Ares - courageous (possibly able to inspire courage), possibly able to cause bloodlust in others, aptitude for war planning
Artemis - skilled with hunting and archery, affinity for nature, ties to the moon
Athena - intellectual, strategic, good counselor and tactician
Deimos - ability to cause fear/dread in others
Demeter - aptitude for plants, grains
Dionysus - inhumanly high liquor tolerance, ability to throw one banging party (or be the life of a party)
Eris - tendency to cause disorder around her, things going awry in her presence (and possibly delighting in it)
Eros - apt at managing relationships and love
Hades - increased senses relating to death (possibly of those around him), affinity for wealth, natural leader
Hebe - youthful beauty, aptitude for mixing things (possibly drinks) that have certain effects
Hephaestus - skilled with metalworking and crafts relating to that, sculpting skills
Hera - aptitude relating to marriage and women (possibly feminism), natural leader
Hermes - speedy, stealthy, possibly good at stealing, trickery, or conveying messages
Hestia - gifted in the kitchen, possibly skilled chef
Persephone - aptitude for plants, flowers, instincts relating to death, natural leader
Phobos - ability to cause panic in others/make them flee
Poseidon - aptitude for things relating to the ocean and water in general, natural leader
Zeus - affinity for the weather/meteorology, natural leader
[full power manifestation: "trigger" events]
The second phase will be where the characters regain their powers. This will happen after they know who they are. At this point, there will be an event that will occur (an eclipse), which will allow them to regain their powers once they go through the "triggers" below. This is much like Pleasantville -- different things will cause it for different people, and these things will somehow relate to their immortal lives.
