Greek Mythology Headcanons pt.2

-Apollo has this constant need and desire for perfection. If he isn't perfect at something, he instantly tries to fix it. He constantly needs validation and praise from people in order to feel satisfied with himself. This behavior surprisingly came from Ares. Apollo feared being scorned by Zeus like Ares is, so he does anything in his power to be everything his father would want in a son. Beautiful, Charismatic, Strong, Fast, EVERYTHING.

-Nerites and Ganymede are super close friends. Both are lovers of the big three, so they got a LOT in common. Nerites is kind of the more outspoken and loud one, while Ganymede is sweet and quiet. Nerites is what made Ganymede feel so comfortable on Olympus, because at first Ganymede was too uncomfortable because he was a "mere" human among gods.

-On the other hand, Adonis and Hyacinthus was a odd but interesting duo in itself. Essentially, Adonis is just insane in half the shit he says or does, and Hyacinthus somehow gets convinced of it somehow. Just know that if you see Hyacinthus and Adonis running towards a specific direction... run. the. other. way.

-Athena does not understand emotions as much as she thinks. Ares is a natural at understanding and deciphering emotion, but for some reason she doesn't get it and it always bothered her. Even though she doesn't understand emotion doesn't mean she can't feel them, but she definitely doesn't express it a good way.

-Cronos could have been a good father. When Zeus was his cupbearer, Cronos often said that he saw Zeus as a son and constantly praised him left and right. He even displays sorrow for his lost children to Zeus' surprise. This is what makes it so hard for Zeus to kill him at the end, because Cronos kept screaming "TRAITOR" until he was thrown into tartarus.

-(This could be interpreted either way since I like them as friends but also as lovers) Hermes is oddly possessive over Apollo but nobody notices because of his innocent, care-free attitude. It's not possessive in a bad way, more like "It's my job to comfort and protect Apollo. What do you mean he has other friends? That's stupid!"

-Apollo almost never looks the same day to day. His hair is ALWAYS styled differently by a day to day basis. Sometimes its curly, sometimes it's pin straight. Sometimes it's tied up, other times its flowing down his back. Sometimes he wants to wear white, others he wants to wear red. That boy never stays consistent.

Fifth in the series: Hera

Hera is known to be the true power behind the crown. She's a no-nonsense type-A personality. She never lets her duties slip, even when she's heartbroken. Her ruthless cunning is what made her the Olympians' strategist. In her youth, she was definitely kinder and more trusting, though that trust and kindness only extended to her siblings inside of Kronos' stomach. Being their 'star', when her powers developed, she was what allowed them to see in the dark. Hera was always in the leadership position, and it was well-deserved. However, her life has also been filled with hurt. Her ability for strategy but weakness in combat resulted in her being kidnapped by the Titans in the tail-end of the Titanomachy, which resulted in her being torn apart a second time. However, that cunning is what allowed her to get close to Kronos and eventually "devour" (think of how stars become black holes) him with an ability that was never seen again and split her in half. She later "spat him out" in Tartaros. Outside of that immense surge of power, Hera is physically quite weak (partially as a result of that power surge) but hides it through her cunning and her political power. She can be extremely cruel, but is usually unbothered by people. She doesn't care to get close to others because the people that she's trusted most ended up being the ones to betray her.

TITANOMACHY: Dreams of the Hue | Omens 05 & 06

Art credit to the incredible Jonatan Anjos

Aqua/Marine | background: SALT OF THE EARTH | hustle: TRAUMA TEAMSTER | specialty: CYBOTEUR (L)

RUFUS | background: POSTHUMAN (MARIPOSA) | hustle: HAULER | specialty: CHARIOTEER (R)

Vroom-vroom, Omens, this world won't fell itself.

High-octane action is a centerpeice of TDoth, you are highly empowered individuals setting out to fundamentally change the world - we assume you have the proficiencies to do as such.

Omens move fast, and the Charioteer is the queen of keeping that speed assured. Rufus here has taken control of a truck from the hood using her BlackThumbs augs, plasma leashes giving her control of any vehicle she can get within a whip's length from. As well, her Chuggaway Mag-Boots keep her solidly (and stylishly) affixed to any metal surface.

Behind her, her Friend-in-the-Chair Aqua/Marine furiously types away on her Hardened Cyberdeck, assuring Aqua's safety on the highways they're precariously traveling.

These two are our first glimpses of Omens engaged in a Strike, the core structure of TDoth. Similar to Cyberpunk's Runs, Blades in the Dark's Heists and Wildsea's Voyages, Strikes are distinct missions with an end-goal of weakening a Titan's power one way or another. Many are high-energy, combat filled take-downs, and some are subtle social soirees simmering with explosive tension.

We got plenty more coming, including some devlogs from yours truly! I hope you can join us over on our playtest Discord, where we continuously refine and expand our playtest program to make this the best game it possibly can be.

As always, hope to see in there. We'd love to have you~

"Titan Battle"

An injured Titanomachya gimenezi is about to be mauled by its neighbor a bull Carnotaurus sastrei. Despite its armor this individual born with a malformed foot and separated from its herd does not stand much of a chance.

Titanomachya is a recently discovered TINY sauropod related to Saltasaurus. It lived in Argentina towards the end of the Cretaceous period. Even cooler is that it's the second named dinosaur species from the La Colonia Formation, making it neighbors with the famous Carnotaurus.

It's also a great name, being named after the Titanomachy or the war between the olympian gods with the titans.

I find it really interesting how it's so small for a sauropod, only about the weight of an elephant. I love unconventional dinosaurs such as this and like to imagine there were more in the world than we tend to think.

Rhea: You are what you eat.

Kronos: No, you’re messing with me.

Kronos: I can’t be my own child!

You know what’s wild?

Kronos doesn’t have time powers. Chronos does. Chronos, meaning Time, who’s of the Orphean tradition. In Greek Kronos and Chronos are pronounced slightly differently. But over time, and as the Orphean tradition was neglected, Chronos’ powers were mixed with Kronos’ so now many versions of the myths portray Kronos with Time manipulation powers.

Olympian Headcanons

Disclaimer: I'm not a greek mythology expert, this is not factual, just headcanons I've been thinking of. However if you want me to explain why I think of something, I'd love to talk on it

-When Zeus neglected Ares as a father, Ares would go to Poseidon for comfort and guidance. After Poseidon's son r@ped his daughter and Ares killed him, Poseidon never kindly spoke to or about Ares again.

-Athena will always feel a sense of loneliness on Olympus, even though if you asked her she'd say allyship was not necessary for her. Most of them rather despise her, like Ares or Poseidon, or see her as a competition to beat, due to her favored child status. She's respected, and perhaps loved by Zeus, but she considers very few her friend.

-Apollo will never feel completely satisfied. He's wildly loved by everyone, he's beautiful like the sun, and his knowledge knows little to no bounds. He's powerful and well-loved by Zeus. But he'll always want more. He'll always think he needs to be more.

-Hades built a bond with Poseidon while in Kronos' stomach, due to Poseidon being the only brother he had. Hades became incredibly quiet and reserved because of the trauma, but Poseidon protected him and often spoke for him. Hades would only really speak to Poseidon. Which is why Hades would never forgive Zeus for splitting them apart and ruining their relationship, even if Poseidon was at just as much fault as Zeus.

-The reason Zeus was trusted so easily during the titanomachy was because of his looks. He looked so similarly to Rhea, that his siblings immediately felt safe around him. Kronos' stomach was so dark that none of the siblings could see each other, but when they realized Hades looked exactly like their father, they recoiled in fear.

-Even though Ares is treated bad by multiple members of the Olympians, Hephaestus will always feel intense loathing and jealousy towards his older brother. Because despite Ares' flaws, Ares will always be beautiful, beautiful like his mother and father. Hephaestus will never realize that the reason Aphrodite didn't love him was because of his neglection of affection, not because he was ugly.

-Athena didn't start off hating Ares. She once saw him as a little brother, despite the fact he was technically born first. She'd attempt to teach him her ways, just for him to get frustrated and lash out. She would continue to be Zeus' favorite, and that tarnished any relationship they could've had.

-When Ares finally gotten back from the jar, he was in critical condition. He couldn't die, but he was as "unhealthy" as a god could get. He felt no urge to get better, and refused medical treatment until Zeus talked to him.

Norse Mythology Vanished

You know what's sad? How little we know about Norse Mythology. Like, there are so many gods and goddesses and heroes and stories that used to exist, that just... don't anymore. Some scholars compare our knowledge of Norse Mythology now to if our entire knowledge of Greek Mythology consisted only of Herculean and Thesean myths. Of course, that's not exactly accurate; it's based off all the references in ancient texts to stories we can no longer find, as well as certain stories like Beowulf, which was likely originally about a Son of Thor but was altered by Christianity, but it's still pretty sad to think about.

Like, by all likelihood, there was probably a huge epic, on par with the Titanomachy in Greek Mythology, or the war over Amrit between Asuras and Devas Hindu Mythology, between the Aesir and Vanir in Norse Mythology, but now... it's gone. Lost in time. Same with so many different gods and goddesses. I mean, we really only know of like, 3 Vanir, but there were definitely wayyy more.

The reasoning for this is also pretty annoying; in the 11th century, the Church began moving to Iceland, and once Christianity had settled over Iceland, they began recording and archiving Norse myths. However, they also began throwing out a lot of it; whatever the Church thought was dangerous or unneeded was either burnt and discarded, or altered heavily to be more Christian.

Idk man, it's just so annoying for me

Anyways have a great day yall.

I want the lost epic poem about the Titanomachy so so so so bad. It's frustrating how little we know about it and how few fragments from it have survived.
