But soon his overzealousness lands him in hot water with the headmaster, getting him suspended. To graduate, Troyd must improve his grades. But when Cupid retired, he opened Cupid's Academy, a school where teenage gods and goddesses, now armed with magic pistols and love potions, study to become Love gods, matchmakers for the human race. Long ago, Cupid used his bow and arrow to become the king of matchmaking. But rather than being a delivery boy for Mercury, a firefighter for Prometheus, or a wine steward for Dionysus, Troyd dreams of becoming the kind of god people will remember: a Love god like his idol, Cupid. He lives on Mount Olympus, where the gods have day jobs working for major gods like Zeus. He's not extraordinary - he's extra ordinary.
