I was talking to Geneva on twitter about Uranus, and she updated her blog post about the Primordial Deities because of it. This increased activity is really renewing my interest, I just wish I could figure out the whole Raven thing.

I did find this it might be useful:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultural_depictions_of_ravens

Ravens are mentioned in Greek mythology, but not much. They are far more common in Celtic and Norse myths.

I don't think they are going to stretch out into other mythologies, but it might be something for us to keep in the backs of our minds.

^ They just thanked for the application and said that they will be reviewing them and making placements over this week. I'm sure it's not too late to send an application.

I applied as a teacher. Interesting to see which position I'll get Smile

There's a new blog post it sets up what we are going to be doing, so it seems (at least to me) everything before this was sort of a prologue:

I highly suspect that once the roles at the school are filled, the rest of the players will participate as the chorus. It seems we're off to a rolling start on this one. Smile I really enjoy the whole modern mythos thing. We get to make stuff up! I actually can't wait for my 'school assignment.' lol

surprised that in a school about mythology, they would have need for an IT specialist, got this message:

We would like to offer you a position as our Student IT Specialist. In addition to being a student initiate, your duties will include assisting your peers with their Information Technology needs.

to which my response was:
I am honored to have a chance to help my fellow students. I accept, I
would also prefer my preferred name from the application form (kira)
rather then my real name.

short bio
Kira is a smart, yet kind and understanding 17 year old girl who
excels at computers. She is disabled with cerebral palsy and vision
impairment (although she can still see). Her interests are IT, anime,
biology, mythology, astronomy and gaming.

hope they don't read this forum and find out I am a boy...Smile

I got offered a job as an "Incendiaries Specialist."
Maybe we will end up burning the town down. Lol. A quick search of my new job title lead me to the other definition of incendiary: "a person who excites factions, quarrels, or sedition." And now I'm even MORE excited.
