Intro

Hello Epic amino! I'm new here, so I thought I'd introduce myself with the icebreaker challenge :)

• Preferred Name?

Coco/Iliza

• Age and where you're from?

I'm 18, and I'm from Belgium🇧🇪

• Favourite Epic song?

'Keep Your Friends Close' from the Ocean saga. I love the music, it's super catchy. I love the atmosphere and vibes of the sky island, and of course the character of Aeolus, they're so fun! I love how Odysseus is hyped when they tell him 'Let's play a game'. (Sadly it gets ruined by his shipmates, boooo)

And of course, the iconic line:

ODYSSEUS OF ITHACA! DO YOU KNOW :sparkles: WHO I AM? :sparkles:

• What's your hopes for the future of epic the musical?

A videogame in Hades style. I'd also love love love an animated series, with every saga an episode or something.

• Are you interested in more Greek mythology?

Yes! I have been a proud Percy Jackson fan for four years now

• Who's your favourite character?

Odysseus, Aeolus and Circe! I also love Penelope (and Hermes, and Athena, and-)

• Did the Odyssey teach you anything?

Every choice you will ever make will influence your story. Even if the choice you make doesn't seem so big, it can end up being one of the most impactful. It also told me that love can make you do terrible things and you must decide for yourself how far you're willing to go for it. (Not that I think Odysseus is terrible person, just that he did some... questionable things, but let's be honest, he wasn't really put in a healthy and nurturing environment)

• How did you find out about epic the musical?

Tiktok lol. The edits on there are :sparkles: chef's kiss :sparkles:

• Do you have any suggestions for this community?

Some kind of newsletter/paper that artists and writers can work on together? Something that could be published every month or bimonthly or something. (Idk if that's already a thing, if it is, sorry :grimacing: )

• Tell us more about yourself?

I LOVE TEA. I drink it every day, in excessive amounts. I also love drawing! I'm currently working on an Epic animation for 'Full Speed Ahead', but I casted the characters with Percy Jackson characters :eyes: .

I also read a lot! My other hobbies include horse riding, bton and going for walks in nature.
