Did the New Olympians made any great advances in the field of genetic engineering? Are New Olympian scientists at present capable of turning someone like Matt (not the cartoon Matt the Matt on this question server that always trys to condidict me) into a mutate like Sevarius did with Derek?
Greg responds...
I don't think that's been of interest to them. They're pretty diverse as it is.

Some monsters in Greek Mythology were once human for example Athena the Greek goddess of wisdom turned Medusa a very beautiful woman into a snake haired monster because Medusa had a love affair with Poisiden. I was wondering are any of the New olympians desended from humans who were turned into monsters by the fay?
Greg responds...
Descended? It's possible, I guess.
But I'm not currently going to commit to any specific myth.

If Proteus is a villain for NO then how does he get off New Olympus to menace our protagonists or does he stay on NO?
Greg responds...
I'm not going to get into the specifics of how he escaped at this time. But he does.

Why does Terry and Sphinx fall in love with each other? Afterall Sphinx isn't even human?
Greg responds...
And Terry isn't even Olympian. And Romeo wasn't a Capulet. And Juliet wasn't a Montague.
Why do any two people fall in love?
What an odd question.

Why would the Eternal looking NOs think that humans would worship them?
Greg responds...
Cuz once upon a time they did. And cuz they have power. And cuz they want to believe it.

What other New Olympians were you planning to introduce besides Ekidna, Medusa, Chiron, Jove, Helios, Boreas and his son?
Greg responds...
Eventually, lots. But you've covered the biggies for the time being. (If you throw in Taurus, Talos, Sphinx and Proteus.)
BTW. Kiron. Not Chiron.
What's with all the "anonymous" posts, anyway?
Anonymous writes...
What are Talos and Taurus's function in the show? Are they also ambassadors to the UN?
Greg responds...
Also? Taurus is the primary ambassador from New Olympus. Talos is his advisor. Sphinx is an aide.

How does Terry become the ambassador to New Olympus?
Greg responds...
He doesn't. His mother does.

You said that Sphinx was a student so what does she study?
Greg responds...
Among other things... humans.

You once said that you had a medusa character in NO that was eventually replaced by Sphinx. So did you take out the medusa character because you wanted to show that there were also human looking NOs?
Greg responds...
Sphinx isn't particularly human-looking. She's certainly less human looking than Boreas, for example.
Mostly we took out Medusa in a lead role, for two reasons...
1. We thought she'd be very hard to animate. So we wanted to be able to use her sparingly.
2. I liked the ability to use angelic imagery for the first meeting of Terry and Sphinx.
