Athanatoi

Athanatoi is a rich and immersive role-play sim in Second Life, steeped in the lore and grandeur of ancient Greek mythology. This virtual environment allows users to engage in a wide range of activities and narratives inspired by the gods and heroes of Greece, blending historical themes with a vibrant, community-driven experience.

At the heart of Athanatoi is the character of Hermes, the god of farming, merchants, thieves, athletes and the one who guides souls into the afterworld with its three parts: Elysium, Tartaros and the plains of Asphodel. Hermes’ multifaceted role in the sim reflects the diverse activities available to players. As the trainer and coach at the Golden Paw fight club, Hermes oversees the training of athletes, fostering a competitive and dynamic atmosphere. This fight club is a central hub for those looking to engage in nude fighting, a common practice in ancient Greek athletics, adding an authentic touch to the role-play experience.

Hermes also serves as the captain of the Golden Paw Tharl Racers, a team within the Tharlarion Racers of Gor (TRG). This role highlights the sim’s focus on athleticism and competition, encouraging participants to embody the spirit of Greek sportsmanship. The Golden Paw is more than just a venue for fighting and racing; it is a community where players can forge alliances, test their skills, and immerse themselves in the rigorous training regimes of ancient athletes.

The Hermes Market on Athanatoi is another key feature of the sim, offering a bustling marketplace where users can trade goods and engage in economic activities reminiscent of ancient Greek commerce. This market is integral to the G&S farming system, allowing players to grow and trade crops, livestock, and other resources. The market also showcases Athanatos wines and booze, created within the sim, adding a layer of authenticity and depth to the role-playing experience.

Athanatoi is explicitly a gay sim, providing a safe and welcoming environment for LGBTQ+ players to explore themes of gay RP, sex, and slavery within the context of Greek mythology. Players can engage in role-playing scenarios that reflect the complexities and nuances of ancient Greek society with its slavery. In the past, the Olympian gods like Zeus, Poseidon, Dionysos, Eros, Apollo, and Ares further enriched the narrative, allowing players to interact with a pantheon of gods and demigods. Lately, the center of roleplay activity shifted to the counterearth and particularly to Isfahan in the jungle of Schendi. The Athanatoi sim now serves as farm and as terrestrian bridge point for voyages of acquisition for diverse actors situated on Gor.

Overall, Athanatoi offers a unique and immersive experience that blends historical authenticity with creative role-playing opportunities. Whether participating in the Golden Paw fight club, trading in the Hermes Market, working on the farm or exploring the intricate dynamics of the gay slave existence, players are invited to delve deeply into the world of ancient Greek mythology and history, to discover an afterlife in Elysium or in the Tartaros, or to discover the counterearth Antichton already known to the ancient Greeks.
