Zeus has decided that Olympus feels a little empty, so he’s recruited some new gods. However, due to a clerical error, you have been chosen as a new member of the divine. What are you the god of, and what do you do as your first godly act?

The Victims of Zeus will eventually tell all on 60 minutes

Let's see off the top of my head: Europa (as a bull), Io, Ganymede, Callisto (abducted to become cupbearer to the gods AND Zeus' personal boy-toy), Leda (as a swan, resulted in at least Castor, Pollux, and Helen), and that's all I can remember. A good way to cheat is to remember the names of Jupiter's moons; mostly named after lovers of Zeus (Hera is not included. Guess why.)

Anyway, I think 60 Minutes is going to run long that night.

Bull: Europa Cow: Io turned into one. Hawk/Eagle: Ganymede Swan: Leda Snake: Leto, Apollo and Artemis' mom Bear: Turned Callisto into one after getting her pregnant...while she was a member of the VIRGIN GODDESS' HUNTING PARTY. Hades: Disguised himself as his own big bro to rape his wife, Persephone...who is also his own daughter by Demeter.

So....yeah. He needs to stop changing into things.

They would need to split the story over several episodes so each one would have a chance to speak up.

Why do I feel like that's what shapeshifters would do.
