Muses Cabin (2024)

TheMuses Cabin (Cabin 199) is the cabin that houses the children of the Nine Muses, Greek/Roman goddesses of music, dance, poetry, and inspiration.

Claiming and cabin[]

When one of the Muses claims her children, her symbol appears over the child's head.

1. Calliope - writing tablet
2. Clio- scrolls
3. Erato - Cithara (an ancient Greek instrument in the lyre family) or paper and ink pen
4. Euterpe - Aulos (an ancient Greek, flute-like instrument) or musical notes
5. Melpomene - tragic mask
6. Polyhymnia- veil or paper, ink pen, and ink container
7. Terpsichore - dancer
8. Thalia - comic mask
9. Urania - globe and compass

The cabin itself looks normal, but there is a wreath of the Muses' symbols of power over the door. On the inside, the cabin looks like a combination of a cabin, dance studio, music room filled with instruments, and writing room.

"Urania wanted and personally asked Mr. D and Chiron, for her kids not to be near the other cabins because she didn't want them to be disturbed by other campers when studying the sky or just wanting to sing or play music on their own. Also, because there are too many trees, and they wouldn't be able to see the sky."
