'''DIONYSUS'''

Denny Nicely, rock n' roll godling.

Quote: "That's right, baby. Ride the snake to the lake."

'''Traits'''

''Ecstatic'' 5 (his ecstasy is infectious)

''Madness'' 4

''Strong'' 3

''Mean Drunk'' 1 (Sometimes Denny's extreme age and jadedness make it hard for him to get along with those around him, and he has terrible mood swings and does stupid, self-destructive things.)

'''Belief''': 5

'''Occupation''': Bass guitarist. Denny's played backup to some of the finest rock and blues musicians of the last 60 years, and a whole of talentless no-names, too. Any band with Denny in it is guaranteed to be a crowd-pleaser, although he's not that great a bassist, truth be told.

'''Realm''': Denny's Irish Pub. It's a fearful dive with great music, a place where brawlers fight and people fall in love, and they serve a decent spinach pie. Denny is the owner, and the all-female bartenders are all fiercely devoted to him.

'''Recuperating''': Too Much Fun. He's been known to crash parties, get everybody drinking and dancing conga, just for the contact high of watching two hundred yuppies shed their tuxes and inhibitions. It doesn't really satisfy unless folks are going too far, falling into bed together or beating each other up in the alley. He loves college towns.

'''Description''': Denny is a hard guy to describe, but he looks kinda old, and has a long beard and scuffed boots. Sometimes he wears leathers, sometimes denim, sometimes a suit and tie. Always the same snakeskin cowboy boots. He often wears sunglasses to cover his bleary, blood-shot eyes.

'''Motivation''': It's what he does. For all his faults, and all his tendency to cause chaos, he genuinely enjoys the company of mortals. And he loves the music.
Also, when he spends too much time in the Silver City, he gets bored and stirs up trouble. The only reason he goes back there is his friend Hephaestus*, who is always happy to take a break from his wonderful laboratory to go drinking with him.

'''Myth''': "This was a long time ago, but Hephaestus, my genius buddy -- he had a terrible relationship with his mom, Hera. She hated him for being so ugly, and he hated her right back. Anyway, Heph had a nasty sense of humor, so one Mother's Day he gives her this silver throne, most beautiful thing around. So she's very happy, very proud -- only she sits in it, and can't get up. She's pissed, his dad's pissed -- and his dad is dangerous when he gets mad, let me tell you -- and Heph's nowhere to be found. So I know I have to find him before things get too far out of hand. Well, I found him in Athens, rapping about natural philosophy, and I drag him out of the agora and get him good and drunk on the old blushing Hippocrene, fix him up with a couple of nymphs I know, he's a happy guy again. When he passes out, of course, I bring him back to his dad's house so he has to fix things when he wakes up. He was pissed off, sure, but I probably saved his life, and, his dad always liked me after that."

*In this setting, I can imagine Hephestus as sort of a Tony Stark/Bill Gates kind of guy. I'd love to have him show up as an NPC, I almost decided to play him instead of Denny.

Currently he's on tour with a girl-group called the May-Nads. Think Josie and the Pussycats meet White Zombie.
