I need some urban fantasy plot hooks involving Greek mythology.

Minotaur trapping people in a maze like dimension, then eating them

Read Azzarello's run of Wonder Woman for ideas. Another good one is having to protect a mother with another illegitimate child of Zeus from killing rhen

Also trawl through Percy Jackson for ideas.

Watch/read american gods

A mysterious figure sets up a beauty pageant, with a large, magnificent, golden apple figurine as the first-place and only prize. Strangely, entrants are even more cutthroat than usual, and have begun employing increasingly drastic methods of sabotage against their top rivals.

What's that Eris from? Googling "eris chimera" doesn't do much of anything.
At least, I assume that's Eris, given the golden apple beauty contest thing.

it's from the colorful talking ungulate cartoon that gets you banned if you mention it outside its containment board

>>53683225
Oh. That's a shame, she looks cute. And it means I won't be able to see more of her without running into that cancer.

>>53683304
It's r63, and isn't named Eris anyways.

>>53683772
Is the r63 named Eris at least, or did the first guy just post it to shove it everywhere with no relevance?

>>53683797
I have no idea. I only know anything about said things because of a young relative I sometimes babysit, and recognized that it's a female version of one of the male villains.
So I'm guessing the latter.

Atlantis is discovered by finding the point where somebody spliced an undersea internet cable. The natives are adept mages and shitposters.

Cancer here: The original version is basically Q (Even voiced by John de Lancie) in chimera form and while I don't know who first came up with the R63 form she's always been called Eris.

Atlantis is off the coast of Australia, so when they get their IP scanned, it tags them there. All the shitposting Australians are actually Atlanteans knowing they can get away with it.

The real fantasy here is a world where Aussies aren't the biggest shitposters on Earth.

>>53687762
>implying Aussies won't step up their game to defend their reputation as the greatest shitposters of all time

Hades sees the state of the Greek economy and loses his shit.
