PJO Celtic Gods Au Intro

PJO Celtic gods au intro

I can’t believe it’s taken me this long to actually post this au I have been working on it for a long time and probably has the most content out of anything I make. So let begin!

There are Celtic gods, the gods from Ireland, Great Britain, and Gaul. In cannon we know there are not many left and more are fading away. Now the au, due to all the fading the gods have all come to gather under there Irish name the Tuatha De Dahann or children of the Danu, and to the gods that apply they go as either there Irish, welsh, Scottish, or very rarely there name from gaul. For example Lugh is the Irish name but Lugus is the Gaulish name(think Roman and Greek). For simplicity the gods basically fuse there other names together and go by one name now, so the Gaulish god once known as Lugus now goes by Lugh and is the same person as the Irish god Lugh. The gods that appear in the au are Lugh, the Morrigan, Dian Cecht, Cailleach, Aengus Og, Brigd, Manannan Mac Lir, and Arawn.

Not all of these gods are major figures in Celtic mythology and the loss of many major gods is the reason the gods now raise and are very close to and protective of there Demi-god children. Celtic Demi-gods also have not had to deal with monsters like other Demi-gods due to the close relationships between the people and magical creatures. But although they are safer they have to deal with the responsibilities of the faded and older Demi-gods work as or even fully become minor gods. They used to have a school for the Demi-gods and even mortal children to teach them life skills in the mortal world, magic, and other skills, sadly due to there not being enough students it was shut down in 1902 and a small after school and summer day program is used instead that focuses on teaching magic and self defense. The school and program are run by fairies employed by the gods that are also in charge of the seasons but if you have ever seen Ireland and Great Britain they don’t change much.

I introduced the fairies before in the post about porcupine so I won’t go over them here.

Unlike the greek gods who moved to the US the Celtic gods stayed in Ireland and Great Britain since they’re connected to the Irish people and the island itself not western culture. Some Demi-gods do live in the US like Aisling who lives in Modesto California(my hometown because I find it funny) since her ma works in viticulture.

Aisling is one of the main characters in this au along with her family, her dad is the god Arawn. Now in the mythology Arawn has a wife but nothing is known about her so I made her a actual character, Fiona in known as ma to there children, and Mary is known as mum. Arawn and Fiona have been married for centuries and in the late 17 hundreds or early 18 hundreds they met Mary a 40 year old childless widow and all three fell in love and got married turning Mary into a minor goddess and second queen of Annwn. Together they have 4 sons Patrick, Sean, Gillian, and Bart and 1 daughter Aisling. Patrick is the oldest at 24, the twins Sean and Gillian are 22, Bart is 20, and the youngest Aisling is 16.

i'm trying to farm Farosh in TOTK for armor and i keep getting scales not fang shards so here is some story for the pjo celtic au.

While I haven't read the trials of Apollo or the sun and the star, I know that Jason Grace is dead and I'm pretty sure he doesn't show up in the underworld. My fix for this is that Jason's mortal grandmother is Welsh and her spirit is in the kingdom of Annwn, after finding out her grandson died she asked the king to bring his spirit to Annwn so she could give him a loving home. the king agrees and Jason's spirit is brought to Annwn

Annwn is actually a lot like the land of the living but it is said to be a paradise for all who live there. Jason goes through the transition from life to death rather uneventfully, he meets his grandmother and a lot of his ancestors, spirits are given grief counseling to process their death and because of how traumatic Jason's life was he was given a therapist. his therapist suggests hiking in the nearby parks and woods to help relax, on one of these hikes he trips and falls right on top a young girl

Aisling had been very stressed the last few days, she had a test coming up, a very important test. Every young student of magic goes through it, the formation of her very own wand. A wand is deeply connected to its wielder, the person must show off who they are inside and bare their soul to a pure silver medallion. The wand made from those materials contains a part of its creator's magic and soul, strong in the hands of another but most powerful in its creator's hands.

She knew that the test is really a formality, her parents and teachers had told her multiple times. But the nagging fear of failure was always there. So she studied in the forest by her home, practicing using the practice wand that barely worked half the time and reading spellbooks. Her aunt Morigon would surely test her on magical knowledge and trivia. You see Aisling wasn't a normal kid, well for starters she knew magic and lived in the faerie realm during summers and holidays, but she was also a Demi-god, half god half mortal. Her Dad was king Arawn and her mom, well she had two moms, see about 200 years ago the king and queen met and fell in love with a mortal woman by the name of Mary, Aislings mum, so her moms are queen mary and queen Fiona. That also meant her Aunt Morigan was The Morigan goddess of fate, death, war, and lots of other stuff.

So she studied, and today was supposed to be no different but one moment Aisling was reading about shield spells and the next she was smashed to the ground under a huge weight.

AU where the Justice League forms like usual, except Batman maintained his “totally a myth” status and has in fact been active for years before the JL forms. He’s very cautious about trusting them, but still joins, and the others sort of accepts that as long as they trust that Batman has a really hard time with trust, it will all work out in its own weird way

Then, one day, in the middle of a JL mission, the League gets in a tight spot. Out of nowhere, this blue and black blur swoops in and saves everyone’s ass. Maybe breaking some shackles that were proving very difficult, maybe disarm a bomb that the League was just a hair’s breadth too slow to reach without help, but whatever happens, the shadowy figure pauses just long enough to say, “Hey, Batman, you know you there are these things called cellphones now and you can just call sometimes, it doesn’t have to be this dramatic?” and bounds away after shouting ‘let’s do brunch! Bring your new friends!’

Batman is mortified.

No one lets it go.

The entire rest of the mission, the whole League is asking so many questions. Who was that? Do you know him? How do you know him? What’s going on? I didn’t know there was a vigilante in this area?? They don’t let up until he talks.

“That was Nightwing.” Batman is mumbling. The JL forces him to bring them to the Brunch. Brunch happens to be in a run-down apartment on the edge of a bad neighborhood, at five in the morning, in costume. Nightwing introduces himself as Batman’s lovechild with justice.

“I did not realize Batman had a child,” Martian Manhunter says, calmly enough that no one’s sure if he’s accidentally plucking a really loud thought out of the air or if he’s trying to make a joke.

Nightwing stares for a moment falling over laughing. He doesn’t get up. Batman starts trying to apply anti-Joker venom but Nightwing just kicks him and laughs until he cries. He keeps trying to wipe his eyes and his mask keeps getting in the way, so he asks everyone to leave so he can please get a hold of himself

He is still laughing when they leave. Everyone is confused. Batman is furious.  Nightwing manages to breathe long enough to say, “We’re just so glad you’re socializing now, Batman.”

Superman turns to look at Batman very slowly. “…’we’?”

While Apple Sauce seems to have people’s attention

Ok so I need to vent about something here. I've been playing assassin's Creed: Odyssey and I have two complaints that make me angry.

1) WHY ARE THERE CACTI IN ANCIENT GREECE!!!! Cacti are a plant that almost exclusively grows in the Americas and at the time of ancient Greece why do the islands have cacti.

2) I don't really know how to feel about how they portray Persephone and Hades relationship. So I have stoped calling Persephone, Persephone and have instead been calling her bitch

3) I want more quest lines with Cassandra / alexiosis family. It's like you finish the main quest line then they're just lieutenants. That's it. I want family drama! I want Cassandra alexios and stentor to have a awesome sibling bonding adventure! I feel like the main character and Nikolaos need a better story together! AND WORT OF ALL WAS MYRRINE she was a badass mom and now that the story is over she is shoved to the side never to be seen again.

In summary my love floral culture has stained one of my favorite games. Persephone is a bitch and the game really likes to remind you that she is a prisoner and that Hades is the worst husband ever. And finally the family is an underutilized part of the game and we need some side quests with them they would be so much fun.
