Proving that swords are mightiest when they're also a pen is our Writing mod, @veloxvoid.bsky.social!

VeloxVoid doesn't need to visit Hypnos to live his dream of editing: his genuine excitement to help people develop their work makes him perfect for our project!

Mod intro: VeloxVoid. Writing.
Hey there! I’m Hawk and I love everything editing! Reading has been my passion since I was a tiny kid, so it’s an honour to work on a project for a franchise as incredible as PJO.

Find VeloxVoid on Bluesky and AO3 as VeloxVoid.

In the centre of the tapestry is a large gold circle with the mod's icon. VeloxVoid's icon is of Hawk's OC Ren against a red background. He is smiling with sharp teeth, and has longish, wavy, red-brown hair with a white skunk streak in the front, large eyebrows, mid-brown skin, pale blue eyes, light stubble around his chin, multiple ear piercings, and wearing a white button-up shirt with a silver chain necklace underneath.

Poring over the pages of canon and myth is our Lead Writer, echyrrhus! (echyrrhus on tumblr)

Chyrr's love of legends will help them stitch together all the scenes of our epic zine!

Mod intro: echyrrhus. Founder and Lead Writer.
Hi. I’m Chyrr, and since the age of nine I have been obsessed with the Hellenistic myths, which led my teacher to lend me the Lightning Thief, and now here I am: a writer—although still very unpublished—and PJO enjoyer, ready to commit to this fanzine with all my heart.

Experience: I have written numerous fanfictions and original stories on both Wattpad and AO3, and have worked on several local writing projects! This is my first zine and I am excited to learn.

Find Chyrr on tumblr, X, & instagram as echyrrhus.

Cream background with golden strands. In the top right is a blue tapestry. It has a brown and gold trim patterned in a Greek style. In the centre of the tapestry is a large gold circle with the mod's icon. Chyrr's icon is Black background with a green crosshair. “ECHYRRHUS” is written on top in a futuristic font. Beneath it is the same word written out in Elder Futhark and the phrase “MAY THE TORCHES BURN”.

Helloo! I’m Hibi and I’ve always loved fantasy, always will. PJO was my first introduction to Greek mythology and gave us a world so easy to imagine ourselves in for us to explore.
