Thread: Task of the Year 2015

Way to go! Keep up the great work everyone!

Almost messed up again with the Paris task, but banished him when I realized I HAD TO BE Paris.


ToTY completed All of them.

Dream:

Night #12: Choosing the fairest goddess of all - ToTY completed! - Dream Journals - Lucid Dreaming - Dream Views

I do not see the ToTY permission group there, could you add me? Also, could you make those rainbow wings that Dreamer had to be the wings for ToTY? Will be kind of poor to have nothing under my name lol.

Congrats Percy! Way to gooo!

Yay!! Congrats for completed All of ToTY.

Lol maybe I'm doing this a little late but I'll give them a go anyway

For the ToTY? No that's okay, I think we are just a little early. I say go for it!

Yay, First task last night, Stealing Zeus's lightning rod !

Spoiler for Stealing Zeus's Lightning Rod:

I need to steal Zeus's lightning rod. I remember about Pegasus, and how IRL, I thought would be easiest to summon him.
"Hey how are ya..."I say before turning around..."Pegasus."
I find no winged horse. I only notice a bright white cat. I try to summon Pegasus a few more times but I only find some kind of bright white animal and equally bright white glasses laying on the floor.
"Ok you can stop hiding, I know you're right behind that corner," I shout.
Finally I find a bright white winged horse... Or small pony, rather.
You know what that'll do.
"Are you ready?" I ask.
He nods, and I mount him. He is just about as high as my hips. As he takes off I shout, "TO ZEUS!" then "TO ZEUS'S LIGHTNING", and finally "TO ZEUS'S LIGHTNING ROD!"

The flight is quite exciting. Pegasus is not very stable, and I'm worried about falling off because he's so small. I rub my hands against his fur, to stabilize. Everything is super realistic. Eventually, we reach the clouds and when we go past them, we find a huge golden chair... there is also some kind of safety locker, where I assume the lightning rod is. Before we can go any further, I feel a super powerful presence at my right... In a second, a huge pixelated version of Zeus emerges from the clouds, flying one hand forward. In the other hand is his lightning rod. In a very loud, very deep and mostly, very angry voice, he says...
“You will NOT take my lightning rod!”
I feel an urge to fly away, but I hold my ground.
Worth it.
I teleport off of Pegasus and throw a punch in Zeus’s Massive left side. As soon as my punch lands, I teleport to his opposite side and punch him there. Then, I teleport up a dozen meters above him, where I pull my open hand to my hips and fly down head first towards him… I focus on the “energy” around me which, as in throw my arm forward, converges inside of my arm; the energy reaches my knucles exactly when I strike Zeus. He is blasted onto the ground. I land onto him. I feel the dream destabilizing, but I won’t let it end now. I take the lightning bolt, and then allow myself to slip into a FA in which I write this dream down, before waking up for real.

I mean it was more of a mugging than anything else does that still count

I think I know what I'll do for War of the Gods.

Finally did another task
Took me lots of time to even attempt it for some reason

As I rub my hands together I decide that this is where I'll find the God of Wine. I straighten my arms towards the middle of the roof [of the car], the back of my hands against each other, and then I pull them apart. By telekinesis, the roof opens up in a split. Before I jump down In the car, I make sure to say something like "I knew I'd find you there, God of Wine." Sure enough, the god is sitting there on a backseat couch. He has some kind of golden ornaments around his head, kind of like a really big crown. He's also holding a small carafe of what I assume to be wine. Without saying anything, he pours the liquor in a glass and drinks it. So, I take a filled glass out of nowhere and drink it, too. I'm only tasting a very vague, sour hint of wine.As he refills his glass, I mentally suggest: You're feeling drowsy, you're about to pass out!
He drinks this glass and I just kind of force him to pass out... I just repeated the words "pass out" lots of time, the words felt like I was sending waves of "energy" at him or something.
I'm satisfied but unsure: do I have to drink one more glass to wine, since I only drank one and he drank two? Just in case, I chug my same glass again which refilled itself at some point.

Next up is Pandora's box

The Fairest of All - During the wedding of Peleus and Thetis, a golden apple inscribed with the words "for the fairest" was thrown by the goddess Eris amongst three other goddesses: Athena, Hera, and Aphrodite. All three goddesses claimed to be the fairest of all, and thus the rightful bearer of the golden apple. Paris, prince of Troy, was charged with the decision on whom would have the golden apple. After many bribes, the competition was eventually won by Aphrodite. You are Paris. Take benefits from said bribes and choose who is the Fairest of All!

I didn't take any bribes, so I don't know if this is complete. I didn't take the bribes because they bored me. My dream self has all those things.

I am sitting at a wedding table of the gods on Mount Olympus on a grassy mountainside. The table is full of all kinds of food, and there is a huge cake. The bride and groom are dancing to music played by Pan and some wood nymphs.
I smile and inhale. The air is so pure and fragrant. Smells like wildflowers, wine, and nectarines.
I pluck a grape the size of a plum off a bunch and pop it in my mouth. The grape bursts, and is full of amazing sweet floral flavor. I crunch the seeds and swallow. My, how real my dream body feels. As I reach for a pomegranate, I notice I have a feline paw. Ah, I guess I must be the god of Nothing. I chuckle to myself.
Suddenly, a portal opens, and my goddess, Eris appears in terrifying glory. sparks are flying around her, and thunder claps. The music stops, and all look at her. The magical storm disspates, and she blows out her right hand which apparently caught fire.

"And why was I not invited?"

All are silent.

"Anyway, here ya go," she says, tossing her wedding gift upon the table. Inscribed on it are the words, "Kallisti! To the prettiest one."

"Well, thank-" the bride begins to say, but is interrupted by Aphrodite.

"I am obviously the most beautiful goddess in the world, for what is more beautiful than Love herself?"

"Pshaw!" snorts Athena. "Wisdom is more beautiful than flightly love, which causes good men to do evil deeds, and makes women ugly in their jealousy. Wisdom is the mother of peace and justice."

"You silly sad, bitches, I am the Great Mother Bitch!" scream Hera. "I am the prettiest one! I gave birth to everyone and everything!"

Eris grins at the discord sown.

"Zeus!" shouts Hera, "Who is the prettiest one? Who is the owner of the apple?"

"Well, isn't the apple a wedding present? So, it should go to-"

"Wrong answer!" Hera screams, and throws a large pumpkin at Zeus's head which he narrowly dodges.

"Hmph!" says Athena, let's ask Paris, the God of Nothing. "Come here boy," she beckons to me. Hera and Aphrodite stand next to her. "Look at us, who is the prettiest?"

Athena is gorgeous with green eyes and coppery curly auburn hair. She has a cute pointy nose, strong yet feminine jaw, and sexy lips. She speaks to me telepathically, and I have a vision of gaining knowledge and wisdom to make myself wealthy, and I have a palace full of gold.

I look at Hera, and she looks like a naughty MILF. She smirks at me. She has long straight brown hair, dark brown eyes, and full lips. She gives me a vision of conquering my enemies in battle and expanding my kingdom.

I look at Aphrodite. She has strawberry blond hair, and green-blue eyes, and pouty lips. She gives me a vision of my soulmate being with me. "I already have that!" I think.

I turn to Eris. She has long curly black hair and violet eyes. "Oh, Eris Goddess of Discord, how I love and worship Thee, you are Khaos, you are the Apple and Omega, the Beginning in the End, You are the All-Mother, for out of Khaos, Matter was Born. I take the apple off the table and walk to Eris. I kneel down before her, and offer it to her."

She grins, picks up the apple. She takes a bite, and like it's a regular apple, and says, "thanks," nonchalantly around a mouthful of apple. She chuckles to herself and steps into the portal.

The other three goddesses fume at me. I smile and wave at them. "bye, bitches."

"No fair! We didn't know he was a Discordian!"

"HAHA! 23 IN YOUR FACE!" I step through the portal.

I am sitting at a wedding feast of the gods, which I apparently rejoined after leaving with Eris. Hera, Aphrodite, and Athena are alternately fuming at me, and ignoring me. I chuckle to myself.
I stand up and walk around. The setting on Mount Olympus is amazing. Wildflowers and majestic tall trees are everywhere.
I see Hercules drunkenly tossing boulders over a cliff, whooping it up. I join him at his side, tossing boulders over. He stops.
"No, Mr. Nothing, this game is called Drunken Boulder Toss. Every time you miss, you have to take a drink."
"Miss what?"
See that mountain? That's out target."
I toss a boulder at a mountain peak which is about two miles away. I make it about 15 or 20 yards out from the cliff.
Hercules laughs and pours wine out of a large barrel into a golden flask for me to drink. I drink deeply. It's amazing. Sweet, fruity, and delicious.
Zeus joins us. He tosses a boulder. It goes sailing into the sky until it's out of sight.
"You have missed, father!" Hercules laughs uproariously. Zeus joins in, and pours himself a drink.
I pick up a boulder and toss it straight up. It lands on my head, bounces off, then rolls off the edge of the cliff. Hercules falls over laughing, and Zeus hands me another drink of godly wine.
Pan walks over to us. He tosses a boulder to Hercules, who catches it. "I missed the mountain," he grins. And puts his face under the wine barrel spigot and pours it into his mouth he drinks the whole barrel.
"Okay... beetchez... firszt, I'mz going to toss one of theses bitchees..."
He picks up a boulder, and tosses it at the mountain. It sails through air, and hits it, making a huge cloud dust and a muffled boom. We all clap and laugh drunkenly.
"Hmm... let me try! That wine works well."
I pour an entire barrel into my mouth also.
I pick up a boulder and lift it above my head, and accidentally toss it backwards. It lands behind me on a steep slope, and rolls down to me. I turn, and the boulder crashes right into me. I get stuck to it, and roll with it down the cliff. It feels like a fun ride. The boulder and I, roll to the bottom, then I fly up and rejoin the other gods on the plateau above. They are laughing uproariously.
"Did I win?"
They laugh harder.
Zeus shouts, "NO!" with a thunder clap, and tosses a boulder at me, which I narrowly dodge.

This has always confused me: when someone says they completed a task, how can you be sure they're telling the truth? It's not like you can post proof or anything.
