INTRODUCTION
Since the beginning of time, the Gods have meddled with humankind in both a literal and figurative fashion,
siring half-breeds. These children, called Scions, often receive gifts from their immortal parent’s lineage in the form of
Boons and Birthrights. Many cool gifts, documented through poetic odes, Punnett squares, and cutting-edge techniques
involving a pen and a piece of paper, have shaped the world’s best and most beloved heroes into immortal icons.
As impressive as these heroes are, half-breeds don’t always jump for joy when they discover their Mommy had a
one-night stand with a hotel bartender. Is it possible for a Scion to have a God father that isn’t as impressive as Odin?
Yes! To make matters worse, not all Scions share the same caliber of gifts. On occasion, these Scions may acquire
Boons and Birthrights that may be inconsequential or downright annoying when compared to what other (and more
powerful) Scions have received from their immortal parents. In many cases, some Scions believe they’re nothing
more than supernatural “leftovers.”
Titanspawn, one of the many villainous groups within the supernatural community, are aware these other Scions
exist, yet even they say “Meh.” or “Who’s your Daddy?” when encountering less powerful sons and daughters of
obscure Gods. Now, they primarily target the lesser half-breeds while on vacation or on certain retail holidays like
Christmas in July. Sadly, this wasn’t always the case, for the phrase “meat shield” originates from the Titanspawn’s
centuries-old practice of targeting run-of-the-mill Scions and using their bodies as protection against deadlier
opponents or friendly fire. Luckily for modern day Scions, the Titanspawn have tired of bullying average half-breeds
so they can concentrate on their “real” enemies.
While it is well-known that not every God is as potent as Zeus (and not every Goddess as brave as Isis), even
the Gods themselves tend to “forget” their long-lost cousins and great-aunts twice-removed on the other side of the
family. Among the immortals, the uber-powerful feel there are some deities best left off Junior’s wedding invitation,
ignored at holidays, or obscured deep in a poorly updated Wikipedia page.
As ridiculous or useless as any of these lesser-known deities might seem, it’s never a good idea for mortals to voice
their opinion out loud. In fact, many of humankind’s modern problems – dirty bathrooms, lack of sex drive, and an
unhealthy obsession with cats – may be traced back to these unremarkable Gods and their reaction to being slighted.
Even though humankind has attempted to resolve these problems on their own through the use of strong chemicals,
drugs, and sites like icanhascheezburger.com, the truth remains: every God and Goddess needs to be told they, and their
kids, are special in their own way. Perhaps the consequences of humankind’s insensitivity to these lesser beings are not
as dire as the threat of Ragnarök, but it should be pointed out that they can, and will, ruin an offensive human’s day.
