The god revealed that Garth Alexopoulus was a direct descendent of the hero Theseus, and therefore Poseidon himself. Garth was granted enhanced strength and endurance, the physique of a Greek hero, and the ability to fly.

For a while, things went well for Argonaut. He became decently popular among the people and his fellow Guildmates. When the leader, General Union, found out about a marketing deal Argonaut was setting up for himself, though, things took an ugly turn.

He wouldn't allow himself to do that, and dedicated himself to fighting for the right reasons. He cut all ties with Poseidon (who had already awoken his 'divine spark') and embarked on a new journey as a true defender of the people. | For a while, things went well for Argonaut.

Background and Origin
Early Life
Secret Origin
Dr. Garth Alexopoulus Dr. Garth Alexopoulus began a career in the field that he'd loved since childhood. All the studying and writing and countless hours of neverending work had paid off for him, and he began travelling around the world, delving into ancient ruins and retrieving historical artifacts. While it was nothing like Indiana Jones, Garth loved his life, and wouldn't have given it up for anything.
Personality
Powers, Skills, and Attributes
Powers
Power 1 - Put info on your power here. Be as lengthy as you like.
Power 2 - Not every hero HAS powers, of course, in which case the powers section can be deleted.
Power 3 - Just take everything from the HR tag above the Skills section, up to the "Powers" sub-header, and delete it. You can also edit the Main Header to take the word 'Powers' out of it as well.
Skills
Skill 1 - Skills are the things your character has learned to do, or has an innate talent at doing.
Skill 2 - These skills can be as mundane as painting, to more fantastical things such as enchanting items.
Skill 3 - If your character has no particular skills worth noting, feel free to follow the same directions as shown for the 'Powers' sub-header on how to remove this section.
Attributes
Attribute 1 - Attributes are physical or mental traits, separate from powers in most cases, though possibly enhanced by them.
Attribute 2 - Attributes can be things such as flexibility, or being naturally acrobatic, or good eye-hand coordination perhaps.
Attribute 3 - Again, like the last two, if you have no use for it, delete this section. You can also ALTER the section if there is something missing that you would find more fitting.
Gear and Equipment
Gear
Weapon - Gear and equipment are the things your character carries around and uses. These can be things like weapons and armor.
Armor - Feel free to use this section to name and describe the gear that your character uses, if any. Be, again, as lengthy as you like.
Gadget - If this section does not apply to your character, feel free to delete it. Also feel free to add more sub-headers as they apply, such as for a vehicle, perhaps, and that vehicle's statistics.
Relationships
Lover
This section is specifically for a spouse, lover, or some other form of paramour. Feel free to use any of the formatting from 'Friends/Allies' below.
Friends/Allies
Put any friends or allies your character may have in here. You may give them descriptions or simply list them. To make a numbered list, simply place a # at the beginning of each new line:
- This guy
- That guy
- Some chick
For a non-numbered list, put an asterisk instead (the lines are optional. Simply remove the HR tags if you wish to remove them):
- This guy
- That guy
- Some chick
Or, you could even use a smaller sub-header for each person, effectively creating a small section on them, like this:
That Guy I Know
Put info on the friend here.
That Chick I Met
And here.
Some Dude at the Bar
Don't forget this one.
Enemies
Put any rivals or enemies here. You can give descriptions, or simply list them. Same idea as the Allies and Friends.
