Percy is so very sorry

[mightypen]

So uh… funny thing. You guys remember how I can do that water stuff? Well, okay maybe some of you don’t know because I’ve been gone since forever and have some memory problems.

[Again.]

So hi newbies, I’m Percy. I’m mostly harmless and like blue things and can breathe underwater… among other things.

Anyway, I’m gonna apologize in advance for whatever shenanigans my dad’s side of the family puts us through. They’re not all that bad, really, they’re just…. well, they’re gods. They don’t really get humans all that well.

Blah blah blah, my dad’s Poseidon and that might either really help us here or turn out terribly for me depending. I can help you guys with cover stories if you end up having to use your powers or whatever out in public, demigods aren’t exactly a new thing and if you say you’re one most folks probably won’t be too upset if you break something.

Try not to break things though, it’s not nice.

I can give folks pointers on do's and don't's of ancient Greek society too, though it's mostly "don't claim to be something you're not" and in this case... "Assume everyone might be a god in disguise, even the animals because Zeus is a bit odd sometimes" and don't take sides if asked to judge something.

Uh... I guess folks can also check in here?

Yeah, ok.

You got any idea if there's likely to be much haunting activity going on? Unquiet dead, that sort of thing?

[mightypen]

Depends, I mean ghosts are definitely a thing and if you can talk to them you might get some info about what's going on. Or you know, whatever it is you do with them.

...you might be able to wield a stygian blade if you can find one.

[hazardlight]

Yeah ok I guess this is the part where I stop disappointing my tenth grade social studies teacher and start disappointing the necromancer in my krewe, because I feel like I oughta know what "stygian" means and I don't.

This might also be a good time to mention I'm a bit haunted myself.

[mightypen]

It's a metal from the Underworld that's quenched in the Styx when forged.

Some of my closest friends are Haunted, it's no big deal as far as i see it and if someone gives you crud about it.... kick 'em in the shins.

[hazardlight]

Haha yeah no, I'm mostly thinking it could turn out to be an issue if anyone local sees spirits because Roadrash'd stick out way more than I do in this time period? I mean I'm a little clueless but he's a geist of vehicular accidents. He ain't exactly... subtle. If he's visible at all, I mean.
