Well, i got a list of the major, most recoognisable player, their symbols and any specific things they wore (kiddies books a bout greece in the fts when its not busy are so useful!)
I was going to post them here, but, shall we resurrect the costumy thread? then we can keep updating the list when theres a new snippet of information, and keep track of who's going as who, and share photo's and ideas and interesting pictures we've come accross (like i've seen loads of statues of Anthena, but don't want to fill up this thread)
Shall we do that?
Mai! How about Hebe? Goddess of Youth, who i think married Heracles, or Hestia, goddess of the hearth and home (not very glamorous sounding, but she was the most worshipped - every single greek houshold had a shrine to her)
I'm wavering, was thinking about Hera (i like peacock feathers)
Isn't sanity really a one trick pony, anyway? I mean all you get is one trick, rational thinking! But when you're good and crazy...ooh hoo hoo hoo... the skys the limit!

So what's the garb and symboly stuff for Hades?
"But you sleep like a ghost with me
It's as simple as that
So tell me I'm mad
Roll me up and breathe me in
Come to my madness
My opium den
Come to my madness
Make sense of it again."

I'm a Greek/Roman mythology cretin. Did they have court jester gods?

God of the underworld, Hades also know as pluto, is usually associated with a sceptre, the three headed dog Cerberus, a cap of invisibility, the key to the underworld, and a two pronged staff. Trees/plants sacred to him are the cypress and narcissus.
I've no idea of their actual validity, it was a kiddies book - but i thought information like that would be good for choosing colours and patterns etc.
It all helps.
Ok, i'm going to start the new thread, but maybe not tonight, i'm tired. But sometime this weekend.

I think Jade's suggestion of Hecate for mai is a good one.
Does everyone else concur on the Morpheus thing o_O? Odd that I'd be the god of something I never really do (or remember i do, rather), lol.

Yeah, it's cool, and the ghost stuff was my reasoning, too. Were you going to go as Hades? I thought it'd be cool to go as a brother but don't particularly care for Zeus and don't know much about Poseidon.

No one can see their reflection in running water. It is only in still water that we can see.

Poseidon is the god of the sea, get a trident and hang kelp in your hair.

Really, growing out the hair to do the pulled back look, and hopefully finding some product that will make it poof when I let it out. Just need a "River" to run away every time I do it.
