Description
The Gifts of Olympus is a series of seven, artifact-like, rock-cut stickers for Counter-Strike Global Offensive where each sticker is a "blessing" for one tool that is an important part of the CS:GO loadout. The idea was to merge real-life lore and transform it into some sort of in-game lore.

# The Story

An excavation site found near Inferno revealed artifacts glowing with mysterious power. Some soldiers patrolling around the area decided to take them along. When caught in the crossfire of daily warfare, they learned their tools suddenly became exponentially better. The Gifts of Olympus had been found. Since then, soldiers have taken these artifacts along with them and conquered every battle for a soldier's tools are their only currency and these are tools granted by the Gods of yesteryear themselves.

# About The Stickers

I love how interactive CSGO has become lately. There are stories and even some lore. This is my first attempt (in many hopefully) to add some community lore to the game. The idea is that anyone with sticker would gain a sort of blessing. Of course, that is just an aesthetic concept and no real in-game effects will apply, but I felt it a good representation. I've done months of research over this project.

In fact, this has been in the making for almost a year in the background. The design decisions—the rock-cut look, the uneven shapes, the chisel like illustrations—are all intentional. I wanted them to feel like artifacts made out of rock. The colours are all colours correctly associated with the Gods in question. I've tried my best to be honest to what I've read and learned about these awesome myths.

I hope you like this collection!
