Brief Overview
The Retro Station's Olympus group is a group made especially for those that come from Greek Mythology. These beings do not consider themselves fictives, and prefer to be considered conceptives mixed with factives.This carrd is made to further inform about the functions of our mythological beings because it is extremely convuluted and way too much for pk's description. Click the different sections below for what I hope to be the easiest way to understand what's going on.
About the Exolayer of Olympus
The Olympus group was created for our Cosmagenic formed members or walk-ins that come from an Exolayer that represents a concept of Greek-based Mythological places such as Olympus and the Underworld.Due to the large variety and retellings of the stories, they tend to have multiple different timelines as exomemories Despite this, many have what they call their "primary conceptualization" which is the primary concept/timeline/version of the myth that their exomemories originate from.Many have the same primary conceptualization as the others in this group, although there are some that deviate from this trend and recall events differently due to having a different primary conceptualization.Our conceptualization of Olympus tends to align with that of our Partner System's own well enough that their Greek alters usually line up with ours. However, they are not the exact same, and it is unknown if our psys has an exolayer, if the exolayer is the same or just similar enough if they have one, etc, as they have yet to find way to go back to Olympus as we have.The only ones capable of going back and forth from the Olympian Exolayer are Zippy and Hermes, our exotravellers, and they are only capable of bringing other people in this group with them so long as it abides certain rules.
About Olympus and the Underworld
Olympus
Those from Olympus without 🌎Walk-In🌎 in their name were either formed or decided they wanted to stick around longterm and only pop back into their exolayer when necessary, while those with it in their name are only visiting for a short amount of time.

Underworld
The Dead from the Underworld, known as Shades rather than zombies or ghosts, are usually formed or are brought up for the purpose of staying here. Most of them have been in the Underworld since their death (Some may come directly from death in some instances) and have been vibing for thousands of years, so they have some wild afterlife stories most of the time.
Basic Etiquette
Gods
Address as "My Lord" "My Lady" "Your Divinity" etc. Treat with respect.
Do not treat as if they're alters, they're just here visiting and come and go as they please
Do not seperate from 'source' or treat as fiction. They ARE the beings and wish to be treated as such
Double uncomfortability does not apply, as to them fellow Gods are simply from different Conceptualizations.
Other
Treat as a hero/prince/lord/etc. Most will have in their bios or displaynames what they desire to be addressed as.
Remember not to seperate from 'source' or treat them as fiction. They ARE those beings and wish to be treated as such.
Double uncomfortability may still apply, since despite understanding the idea of other conceptualizations, it is harder for them to grasp as the Gods can.
