Hi! So I've been asked a couple times for a complete list of everyone and their powers! I posted a list of it on my tumblr a while back that had everyone so far except handmaiden who appeared last chapter. Would you guys like me to do an intermission post after this one with a list of everyone and their powers as of now?

The winning chapter? Follow Calliope's Team!


The goddess of Patience takes her time as she walks along the stone path leading to her genetic donor's Palace. She hums to herself leaning over to pat at a stubborn glowing white moon flower as it peeks through the cracks in the walkway.

"What the fuck are you DOING Calliope!?" Caliborn growls stomping back to stand before her, one robotic foot coming down to crush the persistent flower. A frown creases Calliope's lip as she sighs pushing herself up and brushing off her dress. "The only reason I agreed to go alone with this goodie goodie plan is because I want to be the King down here. So lets GO GET MY CROWN!"

She sighs running a hand through her hair and brushes past him walking down the way to meet up with Gamzee. "You should have patience brother. All good things come to those who wait." Gamzee's grin is lopsided as he turns to shuffle behind her leaving Caliborn to have to jog to catch up.

"Patience is YOUR thing! I just want to kill stuff!" He scoffed slowing down from his jog to walk beside her.

A smirk tilts the corner of her lip as she turns to go through the gates of the palace. A large garden set before them, almost all the fog and lusus blocked out on all sides by large rock walls. The palace looks like a castle of old made of rock towering up above the rest of the underworld. "Yes because 'just wanting to kill stuff' with no plan worked so well for you last time dear brother." she taps his leg with her wand, a hollow echo sounding off of it to emphasize her point.

Caliborne snatches at the large gun strapped to his back turning it to point at his sister with a scream of frustration. "Be careful I don't Kill you before we Kill Dad!" Gamzee honks in the background drawing their eyes to him. His own half lidded eyes focused ahead of them. Both turn their heads to follow his line of sight their own going wide when they settle on the god before them.

He's huge, at least three times taller than the towering Gamzee himself, and green. His upper body is nothing but muscle and his bald head looks even more like a skull than Caliborn's own. His eyes practically roll a multitude of colors as puffs of smoke come out of his mouth. He's not wearing a shirt under his long neon green trench coat. The trim flashing with the rolling colors of his eyes. His white pants stretch taunt across the muscles on his legs as he moves to step closer. "You're going to kill me?" His voice echoes through the garden followed by a genuine laugh, tumbling out from his belly.

Caliborn gulps, taking an involuntary step back as his red eyes widen, slowly bleeding to a solid shade. Calliope takes a step forward, delicate fingers wrapped around her wand as she steps up to look up at her father figure. "Lord English. God of Souls. Father. I ask that you please consider your placement at this time and step back allowing us to take over so that we may further assist in the overthrowing of our Queen the Condesce."

Swirling eyes roll down to settle on the young goddess a snarl escaping through sharp fangs as he leans over. "You overstep your bounds daughter. Be careful I don't place you back into them by force."

An loud echo bounces through the garden as a plethora of bullets ricochet off of the towering god's chest drawing his eyes up to settle on the solid red of his son's. Calliope sighs at her brother's impatience and jumps back to stand beside him, wand raised in preparation. Lord English's head tilts, a grin splitting his boney face as he braces himself, his mouth opening wide a stream of souls gathering at the opening of his mouth, fusing together into a bright light. The gathering only lasts a few seconds before the stream shoots forward towards the two younger gods.

Calliope chants a quick spell souls coming together around her to form a barrier, the beam hits the bubble protecting the two leaving veins of cracks along its surface before bouncing off and crashing into the walls, sending rocks and flowers flying through the underworld. The cracks falter and chip falling to the floor to disappear in puffs of steam as Caliborn lifts his gun up to shoot at Lord English's head.

A large hand comes up repelling the bullets like they were flies as the giant god steps closer, claws marring the rock surface with every angry step he takes. Calliope begins chanting again, souls starting to gather around them. Lord English reaches out, pressing his palm against the top of the bubble, with an absorbent pop the souls disappear into his hand. "Trying to fight me with my own power as your only defense was a very stupid move. Now I'm going to have to kill both of you."

Calliope smiles, her eyes a normal glow of lime green as they settle on the multicolor of her father's. "Actually father. I was just the decoy."

Lord English stops, his head tilting in confusion for a second before a flare of pain splits through the back of his skull. Caliborn grabs his sister and jumps out of the way, the floor shaking as Lord English falls to one knee, then forward, face cracking hard against the rock where the two were standing just seconds ago. Caliborn sets his sister down lightly on her feet, pulling away leaving only their fingers laced as the two turn to smile at the god of music.

Gamzee honks, two juggling pins held tightly in his right hand splattered with green as he grins over the body in front of them. Calliope walks forward, kneeling over to touch the concave spot on the back of her fathers head, blood pouring out of the wound around it. "I'm glad you two were patient enough for me to learn his weak spot."

Caliborn scowls tightening his hold on her hand. "Just don't think we'll be making a habit of me taking orders from you!"
