Well, this is being put in here because we all need to figure out who is playing who in this crazy RP as well as who has which position.
For those of you who weren't there when this idea was proposed, here goes. I'm going to start an RP involving gods and the like, deities if you will. Here's the twist though: they all work in an office. Sound like fun? Good. ^_^ Because you don't have a choice. You can choose any deities from any religion. Here's where you choose and ask about positions in the office. We can put up profiles afterwords.
And just so we're clear, I WILL NOT TOLERATE BASHING OF OTHER RELIGIONS! *cough* Now that's out of the bag, let's get started. I've listed a couple of suggestions for positions that we're going to need, so its first come first serve. Suggesting new positions is wonderful, so please do.
(Italics mean there is someone playing this position, but more positions are available; Strike means position is taken, end of story)
Boss - Zeus (Rose)
Secretary - Aphrodite (Alicia)
Human Resources Rep - Anubis (Alicia)
Marketing Rep - Loki (Blake) Accounting Rep
IT Guy/Gal - Satan (Amber)
Office s-l-u-t - Hathor (Natasha)
Office Slacker - Dionysus (Rose)
Lunch Boy/Girl - Freya (Amber)
Boss's Minion - Charon (Justine) Cubicle Minion/Temp - Set (Blake) General Office Worker - Amaterasu (Natasha); Clymene (Blake); Hyperion (Blake)
Fedex Guy - Jesus (Alicia)
The last two we'll probably need more than one of, so there's unlimited space for them. Choose away!
Random note: I think I might take secretary with Amaterasu.

Dibs on the boss' minion, and I want to play Charon. Decidedly. That's right. THE RIVER BOATMAN. Suffer the wrath. ... That or Eros. Coincidentally, they're brothers. Sons of Erebus and Nyx. I'm inclined to say Charon got the bum end of THAT deal, huh?
... additionally... What about the Fed Ex guy? Every office has a hot fed ex guy.

DOOD! Adding to what Justine said I think Jesus should be the Fed-ex guy and if so I SO CALL HIM!
I'd also love to be Aphrodite. Secretary! And Anubis! He can be the human Recource rep!WOO

Alicia-- Natasha already called secretary status. You might be confused. Let me clarify. The LAST TWO we'll probably need more than one of, so there's unlimited space for them. Choose away! Random note: I think I might take secretary with Amaterasu. I believe Natasha meant to impress upon us that the positions of Cubicle Minion/Temp and General Office Worker had unlimited space.

Loki the marketing rep in the house! Lying and Marketing work well together and he's such a classic character. What with the evil, but in a fun way.
Also I'd really like to play Cubicle Minion: Set, as in the Egyptian Chaos God. He has an Aardvark head and is constantly plotting to bash the jerk Osiris on the head. Also, he is a eunech, cuz Horus ripped out his testicles. Which should make for some hilarious dialogue.

Nuklearlad, at this moment in time, I'd like to be awkward about the whole eunich thing. Also, I'd like to protest the unfairness of this board-- because it won't let me spell kocky correctly, but has no trouble with the word testicles.

I promise to refrain from using the word "testicles" as often as possible and just make subtle comments about how no one is completely sure of Set's gender or how he can sometimes sing impossibly high notes... stuff like that.

That's all right about the secretary position. It was just a suggestion, that's all. If Alicia wants the position, she's more than welcome to.
And I think I might have to fix the words on the 'do not show' list. Rawr.

No. bwahahaha. Zeus dupes Hades once more!
Also, Slackering it up, we have Dionysus on the Rose side.

I'd like to be Freyja from Norse mythology as the lunch girl. And maybe Satan as the IT guy. But as Satan, I'd like to reserve the right to switch genders at will, according to what best suits the situation, and what I'm trying to accomplish. <3

I got two more cubicle monkeys for you,
Clymene Titan of Fame (Can anyone say "Star-struck"?) and his cubicle neighbor Hyperion Titan of the Sun
I see it playing out like this. Clymene has something to say, yells at the top of his lungs "SPOTLIGHT" and Hyperion, sighs, and then complies.

Sounds amusing. I'll put them up in a second. Should be interesting with two sun deities wandering around the office..
I'll put them under the general worker since cubicle minions are people who fetch things. And all of them will have cubicles anyways.

So, how do you want us to do the character profiles? Should they be the actual story of the god, or a contemporary version of the back story, or are we supposed to take free reign? I'm just wondering. <3

And I think we need some Hindu gods. Seriously. I'll ask Christopher about it. <3

You can contemporize your back stories, so they still make a bit of sense. If you want to put some office mumbo jumbo in there though, you're more than welcome.

Okay, Just a list of people I _really_ want to be in this rp.
ANANSI: The Spider Trickster God. CHANTICO: Domestic Goddess of the Home and Domestic Hearth Fires. Also has a neat sideline in volcanoes.

There was a Mayan goddess of suicide. Wow... Her name was Ixtab.
BOLON-TZAKAB had a pretty nifty name, he is god of fire and lightning.
