Shattered Pantheon Non-God Characters
Cleo
The Heroine of 'A Mountain of Trouble' Cleo is an artist who discovers there is so much more to life than her average nine to five job to pay the bills. A fighter with the guts to back up her snark she takes no crap from anyone, even the gods.
Anna
A sweet woman who shines in our second Shattered Pantheon installment 'Shining Desire' Anna is meek and cute, right until she isn't. She may appear to be all flowers and smiles, but our petite sweetie is strong enough to fight for what she wants even if she doubts herself more than she should. Close with her family and her bestie Cleo, Anna is a happy person who just wants love.
Naomi:
A woman with a secret. Naomi sees death, before it happens. Her visions are violent and grim and out of her control. Until she begins being transported to a dark underground land where something chases her down torch lit tunnels. She finds not only fear in the corridors of the underworld, but her strength and a wealth of knowledge she never knew she needed.
Indica
Ooh, I bet you want to know more right? Indica will be making a pretty big appearance shortly in her and Strife's tale. Hang in there for more as we draw ever nearer to her grand entrance to the series!
Mike
Mike is the owner of a small diner in the middle of nowhere California. A big man with the strength of character to standup for what he believes and those weaker than himself he ends up embroiled in the world of gods and goddess by employing Aphrodite herself who quickly introduces him to Hera.
Nymphs
Petite and soft spoken in nature Nymphs appear quite similar to mortal human women except that they roam Olympus and have lifespans several hundred years longer than the average human. Used by the gods as a servant class they tend to go about their duties quietly and without complaint. Fragile looking, but not afraid of hard work.
Sylvia:
Sylvia should be your typical water nymph. In touch with her feelings and unafraid of emotional or physical affection she loves with a grace and ease that makes her hard not to love in return. Able to scry using still water like most water nymphs she has the ability to not only see, but also to hear the scenes she views, something uncommon to her kind. Lusty and brazen Sylvia fears no gods or goddesses and lives every moment with purpose.
Imps
Bat eared, almost hairless, goblin-like creatures, imps are the less attractive underworld version of nymphs. They do the menial tasks of the underworld and tend to have a meaner disposition than their prettier Olympian counterparts. Small in stature, but big on attitude.
Satyrs
Half goat and half man Satyrs are the party animals of Olympus. They tend to the wine and music though they will chip in if a job is too tough on the petite Nymphs. Satyrs spend their time wandering the Olympus naked and ready for a good time. Lewd fellas they're ready with a dirty joke or limerick and tend to get on the nerves of the more serious gods and goddesses.
Grandma Jinny
Naomi's grandmother (see 'Bunny Slippers of Doom' for more on Naomi), Jinny is a woman who has seen more than most in her eighty plus years and is shocked by nearly nothing. She loves matchmaking and has no qualms getting mixed up in the personal lives of those around her to see that they get the nudge towards happiness they need sometimes.
Charon
Ferryman of the underworld Charon sees to it that the souls of the dead are brought to the three judges to be sorted and then takes them to their final rewards...or punishments.
Gabby
As Indica's mother and the former lover of Kronos (Titan of unmitigated trouble making) Gabby is a bit of an enigma right now. She's an integral part of 'A Special Kind of Strain' but as I'm still writing that I'm loathe to put too much info here and realize she has asserted herself in the story in a completely different way. I'm digging the tiny, high-spirited, slightly violent, and always supportive mother and hope you will too as more becomes available on her.
