ATTN Resident Deities

[BabylonHoruv]

I claim the hearth and home. I am goddess of all things domestic. That might mean that Freeky and I have a bit of tousle over the fire, but hell, she's Goddess of Disasters, she got no room to complain!

You are Hestia?

Yeah; my famous photographer friend even did a photo shoot with me as Hestia. Someday maybe he'll let me see the pictures. 

Are you claiming the vengeful spouse domain too?

(might be kinda scared of you)

Vengeful spouse?  Hestia never married. Actually she's kind of boring, compared to the other goddesses, and that whole "virgin" thing is a real bummer, but I'm willing to overlook those aspects and make up my own myths.

Oops, my mistake.  I was confusing her with Hera for some reason.  Not sure why that crosslinked in my mind.

Here's what I saw at first glance.

Admittedly, Hera is way cooler at the level that she has way more actual mythology about her, but Hestia is more egalitarian.

Cornholing Hera would be fun, but the sort of fun you'd really really pay for later.

[BadBeast]

Bit on the Grudgy side, Hera.  When someone wants revenge on Nemesis, they send Hera. Even Zeus  generally disguises himself as some sort of animal when he wants a bit of  "Strange".
But I suppose it serves him right for marrying his Sister.

Utah is Aput's turf. 

[BadBeast]

Then I'll dedicate this too Aput. Because it's what I was playing when I clicked into the thread, and saw "Utah".

I think Pele rules the volcanoes here on the West Coast. I don't think there is a Salish word for volcano.
Terry Pratchett had a pretty good one with Bilius, the Oh God of Hangovers.

[BadBeast]

A lot of the place names here (In SW England) are associated with Celtic/PreCeltic local Deities, and in many cases, that's all that's left of them. I'll dig some up, and post them.

There's Sil, Milke, Melke, Tan, Sulis, Cram, Crom, Cerne, Nuada,   lots of derivations of Bel, Bran, Bron, Woden,  places named for Pan,  references to Erle, Elves, Weland, Bridey, Shea/Sidhe, Lugh, you can't move around here without some pre-historic Deity jumping out of a well, or a Long Barrow. The Romans rounded a lot of them up, and turned them into Saints, but couldn't catch them all. Now they only manage to get out for Harvest Festivals, or Beating the Bounds, and even then, hardly anyone recognises them.

Yeah, Dimo can't take deity of volcanoes because Pele is like the Hawaiian version of Eris. D/N/T. She killed her brother for taking too long to come home one day, and his girlfriend.


I am The Swarm.

This is dissapointing...

So Freeky, since you've decided to take over fire. You better do something about the Quebec fires, because my asthma was so bad yesterday I couldn't go outside. Thanks.

[Richter]

Deities in charge of something have never been too keen on scalling it back.  Freeky, in this case, may jsut knock the heels of her firey boots together three times and ignite half of Maine for kicks. 

I'm hoping the rain today knocks that shit out of the air though.  I wasn't able to breahte deep either.  Colling down / having a beer helped a lot.
