Line 7:
== The Oracle is Chaos ==
No, not ''[[Sailor Moon|that]]'' Chaos, nor ''[[Warhammer 40000|that one]]'', but the primordial Greek Deity that existed long before even Gaia and Uranus. The spirit of the oracle is all that is left of her, and she is playing a millenia-long [[Gambit Roulette]] to regain her power from the Gods.
* I think you forgot [[Final Fantasy I (Video Game)|two more]] [[Dissidia Final Fantasy|Chaoses.]] Does it seem like Chaos gets used a lot for villainous characters, or am i just paranoid?
** Did someone mention [[Sonic Adventure (Video Game)|Chaos]]?
* Doesn't the source mythology inherently [[Joss]] this?
** Yes, I'm pretty sure that Apollo was supposed to be the source of the Oracle's powers.
Line 20:
 
== The series is set [[After the End]]. ==
The United States is referred to as, not only the core of the civilized world, but also the ''entirety'' of the civilized world. Given that this is an [[Alternate Reality]], it's possible that ''this is true [[In -Universe]]'' and not extreme [[Creator Provincialism]].
 
At some point in the world's past, [[Apocalypse How|an apocalyptic event dropped the rest of the world into complete and utter chaos]]; the United States is the last holdout of civilization.
Line 57:
 
== In [[The Film of the Book|the movie]] all of the mythological creatures are [[Mutants|mutates]] ==
* To elaborate Grover the satyr must "earn his horns", Medusa was cursed into gorgonhood, and demigods are plentiful implying that as far as the gods are concerned biology is just a polite suggestion and therefore create satyrs, centaurs, hydras, and whathaveyou on whim. Also, [[Unfortunate Implications|Unfortunately]] [[The Mind Is a Plaything of Thethe Body]]
** Actually, the part about Medusa being cursed is from actual [[Greek Mythology]]. Athena cursed because she was a maiden of one of her temples and had the [[Disproportionate Retribution|audacity to be raped by Poseiden in Athena's temple.]]
 
Line 68:
 
== There will be a Crossover Crossover with ''[[The Kane Chronicles]]'' eventually. ==
The first book of The Kane Chronicles has [[Shout -Out|Shout outs]] to the Percy Jackson series and the end of The Last Olympian said that Rick was writing a new half-blood series, and The Kane Chronicles is it.
* That, or [[The Heroes of Olympus]].
 
Line 155:
* Jennifer Jones
* Many real life [[Alpha Bitch|Alpha Bitches]].
* [[Justin Bieber (Music)|Justin Bieber]] - His massive [[Hatedom]] and [[Hate Dumb]] is an organized attempt by the children of Apollo for revenge.
** Until Anonymous/the internet caught on. Now it's just [[Hatedom]].
* [[Taylor Swift (Music)|Taylor Swift]] - Same as Bieber, and ''damn'' if she didn't inherit [[Unkempt Beauty|her mother's characteristics]]!
* [[Big Brother|Dr. Will]].
 
Line 196:
* [[Keith Richards]]
* Edward Jenner (was doctor and less famously a poet and musician, how could he NOT be a son of Apollo?)
* [[Iron Maiden (Music)|Steve Harris]]
* [[Blind Guardian|Hansi Kursch]]
* [[Charlton Heston]]
Line 205:
* Mary Shelly
* [[Vincent Price]]
* [[HPH.P. Lovecraft]] (Or a possible child of Dionysus, due to him being the god of insanity and all)
* [[Stephen King]]
 
Line 259:
Think about it: European mythical creatures in America that are [[Invisible to Normals]] unless said normals are the seventh son of a seventh son, the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter or (Wait for it) have red hair. Three words: Rachel Elizabeth Dare! But, now we are left with a question: Is Sally Jackson the seventh daughter of a seventh daughter?
 
== The members of [[Muse (Musicband)|Muse]] are sons of the actual Muses. ==
With anti-olympian sympathys. Hence ''Uprising''.
