The Greek Myths are reborn, reincarnated into the modern world and
bound to set chaos on mind-shattering levels. The Gods and Goddesses, the Titans
and even the beasts of old have reawoken in the modern age and only time will
prove that this will not be a good thing.

The immortals of ancient times had died out centuries ago. But just because something has died doesn't mean they always stay dead. In this case, we have the rebirth of the immortals. The Gods and Goddesses of times past and the bodies in which they now reside in would be our Immortals. These are special people who have the will, strengths, and personalities similar to that of the God that now resides in them. They have a special bond with their God, can even communicate with them. Though they may not know this to be the case. Awakened Immortals have more control over what their host does, though not complete. They must learn to live in harmony with the one that has been chosen for them. Like all the others that are to be awakened. Immortals have a special bond with the things that they were the Gods and Goddesses of in the past. For instance, Artemis is still Goddess of the Hunt and Moon, Zeus is still the King of the Gods, ect. Before the awakening (and even after), the Immortals have strengths that normal humans do not. Whether they be smarter, faster, stronger, they are better in areas with little to no practice, as if it comes naturally to them, while regular mortals have to train or study. It sets them apart from the rest.
The Demi Gods are, as most of you know, the children of one of the Gods mixed with a Mortal. They are powerful in at least one aspect that normal humans are not. Whether these be in speed or strength, it is something they get from their godly 'parent'. It would be something that was a strength of the demi god who they are the reincarnation for. Demi Gods are not as powerful as Immortals and their life spans are not as long but they do still 'tower' over regular mortals.
Greek Mythology is known for it's rich diversity when it comes to it's creatures. From Dryads to Nymphs, Cerberus to Echidna, Sirens to Harpies and even Centaurs to the Minotaur. They have been reincarnated into human form, though they are not all as they seem. Even if unawakened, the new Creature of ancient Greece hold some of the very talents and interests that they originally did.
The Titans were the parents of the Gods. Locked away in Tartarus so that they would not set off the balance. There spirits were released when Hades was awakened. He had thought it clever and knew it would cause a new string of chaos. Or at least hoped it would. The Titans are yet to have been awakened, though, so little is truly known of how they will be.
Mortals are, of course, just the normal people who roam the earth. After all, not everyone can be lucky enough to get reincarnated by one of the many gods and creatures of ancient times. That doesn't mean that the mortals aren't important. We all need some mortals in the mix to see the chaos the gods and others create. For the most part most mortals don't have a clue about what is going on.
Deities are many things. They do not exactly fit in with demi gods, but they also aren't just creatures. These would be the reincarnations of the Muses or of the Oracles. They would also be people that had been blessed by gods or goddess and held important meaning to them, such as Artemis's huntresses. Deities are awakened by one of the already Awakened Gods or Goddesses that held the most importance to them.
