12: Rick Riordan Forges a god
SI/OC Fanfic.
A mortal is born in the Rick Riordan universe and is put out that he is a mortal. Deciding to take matters into his own hands, he determines to become more than mortal. Not having any interest in becoming a god, and wanting to avoid the uselessness that is being a magician in a world of gods, he goes for broke and gather seven cores of power: concentrated Mist; a massively powerful Egyptian artifact; a ritual designed using Norse runes; Yin-Yang (Body-Soul) cultivation resources from Asia; Sands of Time, the fire of an Ifrit, the Blood of a Naga, and the feathers of a Roc from Persia; blood from Kronos, Typhon, the Gigantes, Apophis, Fenrir, Loki, and Ouroboros, the Sutr, and Set; and the Cores of 36 monster (twelve from Greece, Egypt, and Persia) that line up with the zodiac, and combines them into a ritual that will turn him from mortal into something else. Caught by the gods while he is unconscious, he gets thrown straight into the pits of Tartarus where all hells meet due to Kronos convincing the gods that he was the way Kronos intended to revive himself in order to distract them for a bit. Waking up powerful, but only just starting his journey, in Tartarus, he gathers the bits of Kronos and binds them into a box that is next to impossible to open, taking it to Olympus to prove his innocence. Accused of trying to switch sides, he is attacked by the gods, and he almost kills Zeus in self-defense, but Hestia begs for his salvation. Stuff happens from there.
