personailty: Hermes is on a mission to charm every living thing he lays eyes on. Weather thats into sleeping with him, or into giving him that trinket you just bought, as long he gets what he was from you. He’s a con man, a brilliant con man really. He can talk you out of, or into, almost anything and, even worse, he knows when your lying. It comes with the whole “god of lairs” bit. He’s got a smile to make you swoon and words to set your heart aflutter. Its a dangerous game he plays, its probably best to avoid him if you can, especially if you don’t feel like losing anything. A very smooth criminal and a very slippery snake, you’d say, depending on weather he’s facing you or not. So he seems all fun and games, but that was just the light side of Hermes, he is a Greek God after all and you can only live so long without developing a somehow sinister side as well.
He has a bit of a temper, lets say. He usually does not get upset easily, but push the right buttons and he’ll flame up like a spark in a gasoline factory. Don’t dis either of his scared animals: the ram or the tortoise. Do not insult his children. Do not insult him. He can tell pretty easily if your being playful or not, poking fun, thats fine. But if you’re really going to try your luck and actually call him out or put him down, you could be dead before you think twice. Greek gods are not exactly well known for being forgiving, so don’t get on his bad side. Just smile and play along and everything will be fine. Remember, he’s not all bad. He has a heart and generally doesn’t like to harm, just don’t get him riled and you’ll be fine. You know...in a matter of words.
Um. Well, I’ll touch more on this later, but Hermes has two large snakes that have minds of their own. They act as sort of his secretaries as he tries to deal with all the gods mail and messages. One is named Martha. She’s very into her job as a secretary, alerting Hermes to when people are calling and taking messages and such. She likes to be respectful and professional and often scolds George, the other snake, for being rude and slacking on his job. That brings us to George I suppose. All he really cares about in life is rats. He loves to eat rats. If your not talking about rats he really could care less, but he’ll occasionally interject with some rash comment that will quickly be followed by an apology by Martha on he’s behalf. Hermes loves them, but acts like he hardly tolerates them. Truth is he need them if he wants to do anything with his life besides take orders from all the other gods.
appearance: He is a god and so does hold the ability to change his appearance, but he’s so proud of his human form, he doesn’t feel the need to change it often. He’s got a bright grin and stunning light blue eyes that are enough to make most girl’s melt. Or, at least, he’d like to think so. His hair his moderate in length for a man, dark and falls with a slight wave. He carries a come in attempts to keep it tidy, but it does tend to fall into a bit of a mess, though most tend to think it doesn’t make him any less handsome. He’s got a well structured jaw that is mostly always clean shaven, though on occasion you’ll catch him with a shadow. His fit, given his rule of athletics and gymnastics as well.
As far as fashion goes he likes to keep it classy if not dressed in his official herald gear, that being an older type mailman uniform with winged shoes and a winged travelers hat. He’ll wear tailored suits on any occasion he can manage, sometimes with a hat to match. You’ll often see him with a phone or a cane, neither of those being what they seem. Being the messenger god does leave him rather busy with the mail of the gods actually. His cell is a simple, black, flip up deal with an antenna that is strangely always occupied by two small worm like creatures. Likewise, his cane is the home to two large snakes that have wound their way up like a caduceus. In either of these forms, to the onlooker they seem just pretty decoration, though, should Hermes decide to lose the disguise and reveal that, in fact, he is holding a large shepherds staff, then one would notice that those “decorations” are actually two very live, very large snakes. You should know that they might try to talk to you telepathically. They are gold in color, to match his staff, though move like a normal stake like, slithering around the poll in a never ending twist.
history: Hermes was born in a cave to his mother Maia, a mountain nymph, his father being the almighty Zeus. Hermes was hardly born when he went out to steal his brother Apollo’s cattle and it was from then on that he was known for his gift of thievery and trickery. Hermes only grew more clever with the years, using his gift for persuasion to get whatever he wanted. He grew light and happy, though slightly burdened by his job as not only the herald of the gods, but a guide for the dead to the underworld. He’s good at what he does, even if he tends to slack a bit in order to indulge in his own pleasures. He helped a few heros on his way, helping other gods in order to help himself mostly. He’s famous for his seduction of the Love Goddess Aphrodite, whom bore him three children. He’d never tell, but he’s rather scared of her. He’s seduced countless mortals and nymphs alike though, compared to some of the other gods, he’s only got a few immortal children. Mortal....well he probably couldn’t even tell you if you asked. He may or may not have pissed Hera off a few times, once when he killed her guardian Argos so Zeus could save Io, a girl he loved whom Hera turned into a cow. In all truth, Hermes repeatedly pissed people off through history, but somehow nearly always managed to talk his way out of it.
The greeks move to where they’re worshiped most usually the problem is, hardly anyone worships them anymore in today’s day and age. Thank the...uh well...him he’d like to say, for Tintagel. Here, at least, Greek gods have been fluttering around long enough for them to build at least a fair amount of believers. So Hermes would like to call that his reason for coming here to teach. He’s a big fan of having fans after all ;D
