#Iasion

Zeus: Why does the mortal Iasion keep calling you "babygirl"? Demeter: how about we stop talking for a while.

Demeter being an overbearing mother who doesn't want her daughter to get married is overrated and cliché.

I now present to you: Persephone being an over-jealous daughter who hisses at her mother's suitors.

Iasion: *calling* Hello, is this goddess Demeter? Persephone: No, this is her daughter. Are you calling my mother to conduct business? Iasion: Uh… no? Persephone: Then stop wasting her time.

[0lympian-c0uncil]

Zeus: *kills Iasion*

Demeter,*trying not to cry*: He's just resting....

Zeus: IN PIECES!!! THAT MAN IS DEAD!

Demeter,*tears flowing down her cheeks*: He's so sleepy...

[chrysanthemumgames]

Iasion? is he the one who was killed by Zeus for lying with Demeter in mythology? (Electra's son). I don't think in this version he is the son of Zeus or has ever died hahaha

Well yes. Some things have changed. I have de-related everyone relevant, for starters (easy in this case because he already has a half brother that is now just his brother), and as of yet Iasion is certainly not dead. (There are in fact multiple accounts of how he died; Zeus bolting him is only one option heh).

There will also be quite a bit of liberty taken with what he is up to in the coming book, because, well, I'm more interested in telling a good story than a totally myth-accurate one, and with what I plan to have PC and the others be getting mixed up in, I figured why not bring him into it, too?

Greek Goddess Legacy Challenge: Generation #4 Demeter: Complete

The Good Goddess is also taking attendance: Demeter!

You absolutely hate the hectic place that is Del Sol Valley. You long for more nature, more peace and quiet. So when you accidentally get pregnant as a teen and your mother threatens to disown you, you decide to take matters in your own hands and move to the countryside. you have nothing there, but one of the Nymphs knows a place for you to stay. You find out that you are quite good with plants. You get by by selling your crops and make a home for you and your little baby. It will be forever you two against the world. Nothing can or will come between you two.

Little bit explanation with the sheets: - First sheet is for describing your current generation, with the challenges you need to do each life-stage. Also, because I love the myths, a bit of mythological background. May it inspire you :) - Second sheet is the preparation sheet for this generation, with important characters for your story. It is technically optional, but I love seeing sims with a backstory in my world, so I would highly recommend it. - Third sheet is for your gens children. They all have their own little challenges if your interested in those. I try to make all of them a bit different from each other, so it doesn’t get boring. Your heir is also on this sheet, but I’ve put their challenges on their own sheets. Stay tuned for those ;) - Fourth sheet is completely optional. If you want sims with names from the myths and love making sims to see them in your world, this is for you! All with a little mythological background ofc, you know me.

Next Generation is Persephone! Stay Tuned! Previous Generation was Hera First Generation is Gaia

The Greek Goddesses Challenge by LJJ-Sims is a challenge based on the ancient mythical creatures and stories from Greece. I fell in love with Greek mythology in high school and have not let that love go since. In this challenge you will follow 10 deities in their journey through life. Every goddess has a different take on and goal in life. Special about this challenge?  All your kids have little challenges of their own, not only your heir. These challenges are optional, so if you feel like these are too much or just too restricting for you: by all means let them go. I also have sheets for characters that you can make before you start each generation. This gives your challenge a lot more personality and makes it frankly easier and more fun!

A little disclaimer: because I made these gods and goddesses into a legacy challenge, the relationships in the myths don’t exactly match the relationship in this challenge. There is a lot of keep it in the family in mythology, to put it lightly. And apart from the fact that you can’t do that in the Sims, I don’t really like that part. So I didn’t include it, thus the inconsistency. An example: Ares is now Hera’s stepfather instead of her son, which she conceived with her brother  and husband Zeus. This inconsistency can also be found in the stories. It’s just based on and not copied exactly, as Sims live lives that are a lot shorter than those of immortal gods. And it takes a way from the creativity if we just copy the myths. Even if we wanted to do that, it’s quite hard, as every myths has its fair share of variations and some are just completely different stories.

I use the MCCC-mod to alter the length of life states. You can find the days-years ratio here: the boring stuff.

It would be funny if Hades comments on Demeter becoming a sugar mama/cougar when she starts dating and later marries  Iasion . He knows that gods don't age but seriously this is top level cougar stuff right here.

GEKSHJDDJ YES OMG THAT’D BE HILARIOUS!!! 🤣 Hades totally would though lol!!! The possibilities are endless for that sort of conversation!! 🤣

Hades: So! Demeter, how does it feel to be a cougar?

Demeter: *scoffs* Excuse me?!

Persephone: (quietly) Oh, gods, Hades. Please don’t start.

Hades: C’mon, Demeter, you’re dating a mortal that’s 100s of years younger than you are. You’re basically a cougar…and I suppose when ya marry him you’ll pretty much become a cougar AND a sugar mama. I’d say that would probably be a win/win for your loverboy there.

Demeter: *scowling at Hades*

Persephone: *pulling Hades away from her mother* Y’know what? How about we go talk to Despoina I think I’d rather be doing that right now. C’mon.

demeter gave iasion a little gift in form of flowers <3

[sarafangirlart]

I know we depict Demeter more in the abduction of Persephone, but seriously I kind of otp ship her with Iasion. Also I kind prefer when he's not Zeus's son and is the son of a Italian king.

Honestly I feel like with modern adaptations, ppl tie Demeter and Hades with Persephone’s kidnapping a lot when there are other stories to explore about both characters, like you said let Demeter get laid she deserves to be happy! Also I want a story about Hades settling in to the underworld for the first time that would be fun.

Iasion: Are you afraid I'm going to tell everyone you like to be the little spoon? Demeter: Everyone likes to be the little spoon... it makes you feel safe!

[i-bring-crack]

Lmao you fools I need the Demeter family headcanons or else I'll die so here they are:

But first, for context:

Demeter had fallen in love with Iasion while at the wedding celebration of Kadmos and Harmonia in Samothake, (protip, never look into the family tree in mythology, it aught to save you like another road that doesn't lead to Alabama) and laid with him in a field. Such affaire produced Ploutos and Philomelos. Later on, Zeus God of ruining everything, decided to strike Iasion, killing him, and then taking Demeter from which this other nonconsented union came Persephone. Later on though not specified again and this mostly on my theorithical part, Demeter would have had another consort that being the cretan demigod Karmanor (sometimes identified with Iasion with both being consorts but Karmanor located in crete while Iasion was in ) and with him had Eubouleus and Khrysothemis, whom the former boy had his and swallowed by the earth when Hades kidnapped the Persephone. After which, Demeter, in her search of Persephone, had been followed by Poseidon who also didn't know how to keep it in his pants and from him she gave birth to Despoine and a horse Arion.

Of course myths aren't nesesairly traced well so I'll link the sources and more info in a reloj hours later If you are interested for more on the demeter fam.

Anyways.

Headcanon time:

Persephone is the middle child. Ploutos and Philomelos are the older twins, Euboleus is the younger brother by a year, yet Persephone treats him as though she is older because he is just a demigod. Khrysothemis is almost last with Despoine and Arion being the younger twins.

Ploutos has spoiled Persephone a lot, he is the god of ritches after all, and even if he can't see he always claims that his sister is the best! (Bad choice of words ploutos, don't let the gods get any ideas—oh there goes apollo)

After Ploutos was struck blind by Zeus, Persephone cleaned up his wounds and helped him adjust in a world of pure darkness (since Philomelos never got along with his brother and thought he deserved such punishment). As such, when Persephone was trapped in the Underworld and afraid of the new world she had to get adujsted to, after Zeus basically gave off her daughter to another God without a blink, Ploutos whom his ritches would connected to the eyes of the earth, would send down jewels of sorts for Persephone, hoping to give her some sort of relief from being away from her family.

As for Philomelos, He was unlike his brother, quite hardworking and skilled in engineering, so after hearing of Persephone's kidnapping, he too tried to help out, searching everywhere through the stars for the goddess but could never meet her.

When Helios answered to the grievinh Demeter, for the first time Philomelos and Ploutos made up to take care of their mother, alongside Khrysothemis who sang beautiful tunes with her flute.

Thanks to Euboleus and Triptolemos (a soon demigod of the Eleusinian mysteries, you know, the one whom demeter raised) Demeter is always told as such about how Hades is treating her, so it help ease the winter a little more each day.

Persephone has raised alongside Euboleus the two children from poseidon, eventually Despoine was brought with Persephone to the Eleusinian mysteries, and Arion just likes to carry his sisters around as they sing one of Khrysothemis' new songs.

Persephone often jokes that Ploutos and Hades are quite alike, detesting almost everything and moody when it comes to their work as gods. Ploutos is like "What? No!" But then when he goes to meet the brother in law, they actually have a lot in common saying how much they don't like Zeus "He blinded me!" "His children cause too many problems in the underworld!" As well as the humans who are quite greedy. So they both do respect each other, and Philomelos-Bootes laughs about it all the time that Ploutos might become the god the underworld at this point. He got kicked back again to the stars.

Philomelos and Euboleus do get along really well, often making a lot of gardening tools to help their mother Demeter.

Not long after Iasion was killed, fearing that Zeus might try to attack the children, Demeter had left Ploutos on the hands of Tykhe, goddess of Fortune. Meanwhile Philomelos stayed with her since he was more of ademigod rather than a full God like his brother.

Khrysothemis played at the wedding of Persephone, the one where Demeter finally attended and, though hesitating, gave the blessings to Hades.

Karmanor did his best to be as good of a father as he could to all of them, even Persephone, Ploutos and Philomelos who where a few years old (around 3 and 7 respectively) and powerful children. He loved them all eitherway.

Karmanor is their only dad, say all the children of Demeter. (He is a demigod, not even full god..)

Triptolemos, Polyxeinos and Diokles aren't excluded here they are also part of the family and get to drives epic dragon chariots with the other siblings, often having chariot races for fun.

Despoine was gifted her cloacks by Khrysothemis after the other wore her clothes and were too lose for the little Despoine at the time. Eventually the cloacks would be filled with little adorning gems and trinkets by her siblings.
