Since 4/5 of the previous voters have voted in favor of Diana.
I am closing the vote.
Diana wins!
I'll have the next update up later today.
The first few updates are going to be fairly short. It is much more of a character creation than full updates and chapters. After the origin arc, chapters will be much more developed.
So origins from the list on page one im intrested in.
Born of Clay
Daughter of Ares (especialy if QM keeps his character closer to the real myth. He is way less EVILLL in myth than DC makes him out to bee)
If write ins are alowed some minor greek gods.
Daughter of Asclepius (God of medicine, health, healing, rejuvenation and physicians.)
Daughter of Hymenaios (God of marriage ceremonies, inspiring feasts and song.)
Sweat covered his brow. His hands shook even as he wiped them against the fabric of his woolen pants. His steps were somewhat jerky as he made his way through the crowd. The noise was deafening. Could he do this? He loved his country. He hungered for its independence, but could he kill a man in cold blood? He waited. The motorcade was on its way. He hoped it took forever. He couldn't do this. It was too much. He wasn't strong enough. It was like a whisper in his ear. The harsh caress of an unrelenting lover seemed to enter him. He hated that man. He was empowered. He would fire the shot that would see his nation freed from oppression.
He laughed as the motorcade drew closer. His power grew. He moved forward with an unnatural speed from the crowd. The gun was pulled from his belt in a fluid motion.
Screams rang out among the crowd as he fired. The Archduke died instantly, his head exploding in a shower of blood which covered his wife. Gavrilo fired again, delighting in the horrified expression on the woman's face. His nation would be free from oppression.
Gavrilo did not feel the pain as guards tackled him. He only laughed.
Themisycra: June 28th, 1914
Miles away, you run along the along the beach of your island. You are unaware of the war which is about to engulf mans' world; you laugh in delight as you leap over a sea turtle which was slowly making its way along the beach. Such a delightful creature! You have always enjoyed your mornings runs, the power of the Gods coursing beneath your skin. You pause in your run, choosing to look out over the crystal blue sea. You had always known you were different...the only child born to the Amazons, but you had never known how different. Your mother's words had spoken of your birth. You had been conceived:
Conception (Determines your connection. Are you more connected to the Gods? Or connected to Humanity?) Choose One
[] [Conception] Molded by Clay
[] [Conception] Born of Hippolyta
I think this is an interesting combo. We could be some kind of ultimate warrior created by Ares, only to be stolen away by the Amazons and raised by them to protect the world instead of destroying it. Gets us a cool internal conflict and likely an interesting relationship with Ares.

On the other hand, he's kind of a bumbling idiot in most original greek myths, to the point where a form of worship for him was basically "please, go share your (lack of) tactical acumen with our enemies, thank you!".
That being said, I do admit it's a tempting choice for this quest.
