God: Hades/Pluto, King of the Underworld
Pantheon: Greek/Roman
Animated Fc: Jim Hawkins
Live Action Fc: Sebastian Stan
Mortal Name: Jasper Krieger
Age: 20
Demi-god Powers: He is a medium, with the ability to see and communicate with ghosts and help them pass on to whatever afterlife they are meant for. He is also able to call upon the spirits that already reside in his domain to communicate with. He is also capable of rendering himself invisible for short periods of time.
Personality: He is a rather gloomy soul, often quiet and brooding alone. He’s the type that prefers to interact in small circles, one or two other people rather than with a larger group or going out to party. He’s a reserved individual, keeping his thoughts and feelings to himself more often than not. Many believe him to be unfeeling or uncaring,but the truth is he feels quite deeply. It is rather difficult to get him to trust someone and open up about the things that go inside of his head. Instead, he will attempt to hold in his problems and worries, holding the metaphorical weight of the world on his shoulders. Though often indifferent to matters of other people, and slow to anger, he has been known to have explosive outbursts when he feels he’s been cheated out of what was rightfully his or someone messed with his domain. He has a soft spot for nature, especially flowers, as they remind him of Persephone.
Mortal Life: Reborn in the heart of the United States of America, Hades -renamed as Jasper Krieger- became the only child of Jack and Marianne Krieger. Marianne was a literary professor while Jack was a mortician. In the early days of his young life, Jasper was a happy child, though often quiet and shy. A sweet boy who loved to have his mother read him classical stories and a curious nature about everything. Including the dead. Yes, young Jasper had many questions about the dead: why people died, what happened when you died, and similar inquires. His parents explained as well as they could, and often his father let him watch him work as he prepared bodies for their funerals. He became quite fascinated by them, and would even strike up conversation with the lifeless bodies, telling them his secrets without fear of judgment.

This habit became vital to him as he grew older and the world turned him more cynical. Children didn’t think the dead, and his father’s job, was as cool as he thought of it. They thought it was creepy, and his curiosity even creepier. And as children tend to do with things they don’t agree with, they were rather mean and sometimes cruel to him. He began to become withdrawn, keeping his thoughts to himself and his dead companions. By the time he entered high school, he was a quiet and brooding individual who felt as if no one understood him. Even his parents no longer understood him, believing he had been too attached to dead things when they realized he had been talking to them and banning him from his father’s morgue. So he kept to himself and sought out a new outlet for his troubles in the form of gruesome and gothic poems and stories.

High school was a challenge in and of itself. Most people avoided him like the plague, disturbed by rumors that were made of him that varied from him being able to summon demons to do his bidding to being a serial killer. The ones that didn’t avoid him tried to fight with him. Sometimes he won, sometimes he lost. If not for his good grades, the teachers would have thought him to be nothing but a delinquent. It was a relief when he finally graduated, but was left with the dilemma of what to do with his life. He decided to apply for the local community college, until he could at least figure out what he wanted to do with life.

So when he got a thick letter from a school called Pantheon University, he was beyond confused. But opening it and reading the surprising acceptance letter inside, the return of his memories cleared everything up. And brought with it, conflicting emotions. Mostly in trying to figure out of he was crazy or not, as well as the emotions that came with thoughts of his wife... Persephone. But he had no time to dwell on those, as his new found abilities in seeing and talking to ghosts were almost overwhelming. It took him all summer to come to grips with the knowledge that returned to him and learning how to handle his abilities. But by the time he first entered Pantheon, he slowly felt more confidant in being able to handle it. He lost touch with his mortal family, only calling on holidays and offering excuses as to why he didn’t go home. Persephone wasn’t at the university, and Jasper- Hades, was relieved. With the knowledge of his mortal life, he was ashamed of how he obtained his wife and feared for the day she too would cross the gates onto campus.
