I'm still writing my Rise of the Dreamcathers story, but this had to be written.
Here are some tips and tricks to make a unique character without using clichés. Enjoy.
Here are some clichés:
-Daughter of Artemis (yup and then she fucks every single male at camp)
-Daughter of Poseidon (*cough* Mary Sue *cough*)
-Daughter of Hades (cough see above statement cough)
-Daughter of Kronos (look up, idiot)
-Daughter of Apollo (do I even have to say it? look up)
-Child of Hecate, for daughters look up
-Nico/OC (okay, we all know you have a crush on him, please don't incorporate that into your story)
-PJO goes to high school, more specifically, Goode High School (we all know that'll never happen)
-The hunters come to visit the day your OC arrives at camp (they really don't visit that often)
-Your math teacher turned into a monster (seriously, be more creative)
-You have a Greek mythology class in school (like that ever happens)
-Chiron is your teacher (no way.)
-You have a satyr friend (yeah, okay, but really, not every demi god has one, face it)
-You were chased by monsters (they were killed in the battle of Manhattan)
-Annabeth dumps Percy because she's going to college somewhere (we all know she wouldn't do that)
-PJO truth or dare (no. You may not resurrect Silena, Charles and Luke. Clarisse will also never play, and I do not know why Chris is here)
-Annabeth thinks Rachel is a bitch (no. They became friends in TLO, remember?)
Some original gods who are not mentioned enough:
-Charon
-Tartarus
-Selene
-Akheilos (yes, even shark shaped sea demons can have kids)
-Delphin
-Amphitrite
-Triton
-Aeolus
-The four winds
-Khione
-Krios
-The Gigantes (Porphyrion, Enceladus…)
-Gaea
-Ouranus
-King Lycaon
-Typhon
-Aether
-Helios
-Oceanus
-Metis
-I could go on for a lot longer…
Okay, let's face it. These gods don't have enough of…
Poseidon- sons
Hades- sons
Kronos- sons
Apollo- sons
Demeter- children
Dionysus- children
Charon- love
Hephaestus is actually pretty well stocked right now…
Aphrodite- children
Ares- children (come on, not all of them can be that bad…)
Hypnos- children (not every child has to be a son/daughter of Morpheus)
Nike- sons
Chaos- acknowledgement
You get the picture…
Okay, I had to write this, and flames are welcomed because I really won't bother with them. This is my rant and I am aloud to voice my opinion. So go eat some tomatoes and leave me alone.
