Cupid had skull wings  that were rib cages while attending Monster High. Not to talk about her definitly not natural skin tone, her black hands and legs. She was at least made monster, just like Posea was. But many godly OCs have nothing monster about them. These I would rather put into Ever After High. So, for me...it really depends. There are alot of myths that definitly are 100 % "monster". And then there are myths, usually involving gods and goddesses, that don't involve "monster" at all. The other way round, there also are enough fairytale characters that would totally work as "monster", too. And really the line between the definition of mytology/folklore and fairy tale is flowing. Main topics of myths were made into and can be found in fairy tales. So I...really wouldn't mind too much about (demi)gods, if done with some deep and intense thought about them. They are present in both, the EAH's and the MH's canon. So  go for it!...really, my main problem is, that a) they should  have monster traits if attending Monster High and b) shouldn't be all to powerfull and mighty, as they then run the risk of being way to handy and convenient....and thus....very mary-sue-ish.

But hey, at the end of the day, create whatever OC you want to create. I really am the last person who will tell you what is and what isn't allowed/reasonable in a canon. Because this is actually something I really hate about fandoms. That there are always people who are telling you what goes and what doesn't and try to force said rules onto you and your OCs if you want to be a part of them...as if they own the franchise. I don't have to like your OCs. You have to. Just because I apply these strict rules to myself...that doesn't mean that I want everyone else to follow them as well. As you said....it's about being creative and have fun. And being told by whoever that your OC is to "uncanny"...can really kill this spirit. I know by experience :/
