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?

Well, I'm... technically dead, so getting out might be tricky. But I've talked my way out of an underworld before.

[acapriciousthing]

Hades is very... diligent in his work.

[helborn]

... Yeah. I'm not going to lie, I'm a little worried about that. But the dead know a lot...

[acapriciousthing]

They do. It's just... there needs to be a plan to bring the information back or the problem will get worse.

[helborn]

Hm... I wonder if portals will work from the Underworld. We could always regroup in Liminal Space, right?

[acapriciousthing]

I think there's a way to portal back to somewhere else. Someone who's been here longer will have to weigh in on whether that applies in universes with multiple planes of existence.

[helborn]

Yeah... sounds like it might be a little complicated. But it's either up the mountain or down into the Underworld where we'll likely find answers, right?

[acapriciousthing]

Probably... I just don't want anyone getting in over their head.

[helborn]

... The concern's appreciated. Really.

I've grown fond of our strange little band of Travellers.
