Description Hell, if I have so many little ideas and characters for it, might as well give it a name. Since it's about reincarnation of gods (and ancient Greek mortals), I decided on GoT.
GoT= Gods of Tomorrow (Yes, I'm lame, I know)

So here we have Achilles. Gods, I love making semi hiatus journals because then I start drawing and having inspiration again. Anyways, we all know the myth about how he was killed by an arrow to the heel, hence the phrase "Our Achilles heel", because it was the only part of his body that was not bathed in the River Lethe when he was a babe.
Then I got thinking, "What if Achilles was a girl?" so I twisted the myth a tad bit. In my twist to the myth, Achilles was portrayed as a man under request as an attempt to preserve her honor (not her request of course) and that she had an association with Paris before the Trojan War and Helen came along. She was a young woman deadest on breaking tradition and becoming a warrior and Paris didn't approve. So she left Troy and headed off to Greece, disguising her identity as a man. When the whole apple scenario came along shortly after, Paris picked Aphrodite, hoping to rescue her from a fate she'd regret but ended up enchanted with Helen instead, forgetting about her until the Trojan war came along. He didn't remember her until some point in the confrontation where Achilles was killed by Paris. He removed her helmet, revealing her to be a girl, already doing damage to the warrior's reputation and honor she'd built up and shot her in the weak spot in her armor, ending her rein in disgust. This wasn't put into the myth and she remained under the impression by people everywhere today that she was a man until her fate strand was rewoven and what do ya know, she's a woman! Her temper has cooled considerably and she became more of a knight kind of person, fighting for honor and the honor she has the need to redeem, which is why I picked the word "redemption" instead of glory or fame. She is awaiting her grand battle with Paris to redeem herself and isn't really surprised at Paris's change in pace and personality. She accepts he is nowΒ a bit off his rocker and a little more than slightly obsessed with her and harbors a secret pride in him that he has abandoned his princely ways and chosen the path of a warrior.

Interesting Facts
-She has a very old fashioned, more fancy way of speaking (Ex. Instead of hello she'd say "Greetings", "Salutations", or "It is a pleasure to be in your acquaintance again.". Ex 2. Instead of "You asshole, I'm gonna kill you!" she'd say, "You son of an ass! I ought to behead you and feed your wounded flesh to the crows!"
-She has a very hard time understanding modern technology and speech. Henceforth, people have a hard time understanding her
-She is very ethical and has a firm code of warrior ethics and honor
-Her apprentice is Narcissus and she views him as her child

Just a little idea, I don't know XD. As mentioned above, I hope to do Narcissus next and the phrase I picked for Achilles could also work for him.
Art and design are mine
It's time for a new folder and long description is long XD
