Also, the two are nothing alike, so she cannot be a rip off of him. Their personalities and background. An ancient primal entity of great power, but lacking a body, threatens to rise from it's slumber and exact revenge on its descendents the gods. Also the way they talk, the cold manipulative uncaring villain, is very similiary. In general, Riordan villains are often kind of similiar to each other.

In response to why I think Kronos would win, I have several responses. First, in the books, Kronos was said to be so powerful he made Typhon, who could fight all the gods and nearly win, look like a "playground bully". Second, just being in his presence was enough to incinerate you. Contrary to what PERCY JACKSONS GREEK GODS said, the Olympians didn't seem to be more advanced than the Titans, or Kronos at least, because even they couldn't vaporize mortals from just being in the presence of their true form. Thirdly, Kronos was said to be so powerful he could bend reality itself (time) with his very presence. The way this is presented suggests this isn't some inherent power, he is just powerful Time itself bends to his will. Even Gaea, Tartarus or Zeus could not do this Gaea literally IS reality for the gods' sake. She's the Earth. Screw time she can just stop revolving around the sun and BOOM no time.

And no its definitely an inherent power he's the god of time and his name literlly means time.
