Name: Archelaus Cleo, Son of Zeus.
Codename: Storm-Heir
Gender: Male
Orientation: Bisexual, favors men.
Species: Deity. Default form is a Golden Eagle.
Age: 26
Personality: Prideful and arrogant, though he is actively working on this. Determined and bearer of a terrible wrath, another fault he is aware of and seeks to keep in check. Is not so full of himself that he won't do small things to help others without comment, and has a quite admiration for mortals and their accomplishments. Is especially fond of children and is eager to entertain and protect them.
Abilities:
Heir of the Storm and Sky: Archelaus can freely call down divine lightning to strike foes, or invoke electricity in general and manipulate it. He also has the ability to manipulate the weather and call up storms, regardless of his location, though his range is limited to a few blocks at most. Anything larger requires asking his father for help, or investing a significant portion of his divine energy. He bears a small measure of Authority over other divine domains, and can command spirits, but much of this is purely from his father's reputation more than his own.
Of The Line of Ouranos: As a trueborn Olympian, and one of the next generation, Archelaus is supremely durable, bears senses beyond what any mortal and many spirits or lesser gods possess, near-endless stamina, and can alter his physical form as he wishes, though he can only grow so large. He is capable of moving at the speed of lightning as well, for one second. Any more requires using more divine energy. He can also sacrifice his physical shape to become the Storm & Sky Incarnate, though this comes with the risk of turning any mortal and lesser spirits to dust who witness it, and it would cost him dearly to reform his physical shape.
Flight: As the Heir of Zeus and a minor god of storms and the sky, Archelaus has the right to freely fly on Earth, and can share this gift with up to three people at a time.
Teleportation: Archelaus may freely teleport to Olympus no matter where on Earth or any realm tied to it he is. He may also freely teleport to any shrine or temple dedicated to him and their grounds.
Immortality: As an Olympian deity and part of the Planet's "operating system," Archelaus cannot be truly killed until the day the Planet itself dies. His physical form may be destroyed and his essence scattered or contained, but he will always come back at full strength after a period of time.
Weaknesses: For all the power he boasts, Archelaus is not invincible or beyond harm. Weapons of sufficient magical power or of certain materials, such as Faerie forged weapons, can wound him. Those who are empowered or chosen by the Fates will also be able to harm him, regardless of weapon.
A check on his power in the form of a curse was also placed on him at birth, that renders him vulnerable and powerless whenever he is shackled or chained with bronze bonds. In such a state his physical form can be easily destroyed and his essence bound, though the Planet will still render him unable to truly die. This curse will only be lifted when he officially becomes the King of Olympus.
His personality can get the better of him, his pride swollen or damaged, or his wrath incurred, all of which will make him think and operate without a clear head.
Finally, as he still a nascent deity he doesn't command anywhere near the power his family commands. Though he has a few cults dedicated to him around the world to provide faith-borne divine energy, he himself has a limited supply that must recharge if overused. In such a state he cannot wield his divine authorities, and can only wield his powers on a much smaller scale.
Profile: The trueborn son of Zeus and Hera, born of love in the mid-90's. Zeus had finally begun to feel the weight of time upon him, and with the world changing so drastically and so few revering him as they once had, he thought it was finally time to look into passing on the throne. Deeming Ares an unfit heir, he and his long-suffering wife finally got marriage counseling, and formally made up. Thus was born Archelaus, and his parents saw to it he would not only be educated, but be a better king than Zeus had ever been.
Archelaus has been all around the world, not only to understand his duties but to see all of mortalkind at their best and worst. He looks forward to when he can become the King, and strives to make his mother and father proud of him. He wrestles with the worry that he might have to usurp his father, as there were prophecies stating as such would happen if Zeus ever had another son. In the current day he mainly operates in and around Sable City, as it is a place where magic and power is still as it was in his father's heyday, though he also travels the world when it doesn't need his help. His temple in Sable City is a small wind farm that provides a portion of the overall demand.

I *love* that Zeus and Hera got themselves marriage counseling! XD It's both sweet and hilarious. But I find it such an interesting coincidence: I'm going to have furry versions of the Greek gods in my own story too - only my version is *much* different.
But anyway, Archelaus looks awesome and downright *sexy*! Plus it looks like he's in store for quite a rip-roaring tale of his own.

Very solid work, I look forward to seeing more of him! I love the fact that Zeus finally caved in and admitted that he should do things differently, it's fun to see him go through some amount of growth after the spans of time, heh. But I have to wonder if he got any unique powers, or inherited some things from Hera.
Aside from that, very nice outfit, certainly looks fitting for someone of his status and bloodline!
