In terms of personality, he is often seen as lustful (because of his numerous affairs), selfish and arrogant. His most famous symbols are a thunderbolt and an eagle, his sacred animal. Zeus’ appearance is often that of a grown man with a grey beard and long curly grey hair. Hades, another major Greek god and brother of Zeus and Poseidon, is omitted since he does not live at Mount Olympus but rather in the Underworld, where he reigns as king of the dead. Besides Zeus, the Olympians include Hera, Poseidon, Demeter, Hephaestus, Apollo and Athena, as well as Artemis (goddess of the wilderness, hunting, the moon, chastity), Aphrodite (goddess of love, sex, beauty), Hermes (messenger of the gods, protector of the travellers) and either Hestia (goddess of hearth and domestic life) or Dionysius (god of wine, fertility, theatre). The Twelve Olympians are a group of major Greek deities. Zeus resides, alongside the twelve Olympians, at Mount Olympus. Much of Greek mythology’s most famous divinities and heroes were the offspring of Zeus’s extramarital affairs, such as Athena (the goddess of wisdom) and Apollo (the god of the sun and the arts). This is ironic, being that Zeus is married to the goddess of marriage and monogamy, Hera. Zeus is also known for his numerous sexual affairs with both other goddesses and mortal women. Zeus marries Hera, the goddess of marriage and his sister, conceiving with her Ares (the god of war), Hephaestus (the god of blacksmiths and artisans) and Hebe (the goddess of youth). Zeus is seen as the king of all Greek gods, and he also takes the role of a father, even by those that are not his natural children. The five siblings that Zeus rescues from the stomach of his father Cronos are also important and well-known figures in Greek Mythology: Poseidon, the god of the sea Hades, the god of the underworld Demeter, goddess of fertility and agriculture Hestia, goddess of hearth and domestic life and, finally, Hera, goddess of marriage, womanhood, family and Zeus’ wife.
After defeating the Titans, Zeus banished them to Tartarus, a place even beyond the Underworld. By tricking Cronos, she saved Zeus, who would later rescue his five siblings and take the Titans to War. Rhea did this because she could not stand to lose any more of her children to Cronos. Saturn is the Roman name for Cronos.Īfter devouring his first five children, Cronos was tricked by his wife, Rhea, into eating a rock wrapped in cloth instead of a child.
He is the youngest son of the Titan Cronos, who, after receiving a prophecy that one of his children would take his place of power, begins to swallow his children moments after they are born. He allows us to see Kratos with a slightly different lens because he's experiencing it all differently.In Greek mythology, Zeus is the god of the sky, lightning, rain, storms, justice, law, and morals. As he starts to learn who he is, how he fits into all of this and who his dad is, it's an interesting sort of way that-he sees life differently than we see Kratos. They've lived in this forest, a very small area. “Atreus only knows the world that he lives in with his dad. Cory Barlog, Creative Director ( Mashable) He allows us to see Kratos with a slightly different lens because he's experiencing it all differently.” Cory Barlog, Creative Director ( Mashable ) They're both sort of teaching each other a little bit and kind of helping each other hobble through a very difficult emotional journey."
The kid has no idea about any of that stuff. He's helping Kratos understand what it was like to be a human and Kratos is trying to help the kid understand what it means to be a god. "From a story perspective, Atreus is the humanity that Kratos lost.
