Olympians

The Olympians are the twelve major gods of Ancient Greece

Original Olympians
The original Olympians were the six children of the Titans Kronos and Rhea.


 * Hestia
 * Hades
 * Demeter
 * Poseidon
 * Hera
 * Zeus

Modern Olympians
The goddess of Aphrodite was born from the sea and testicles of the Sky God Ouranos, and therefore has no exact Olympian parentage. Because of her great beauty and passion, she was given a seat on Mount Olympus.

After Kronos was defeated several more gods arose and were born.


 * Hephaestus
 * Apollo
 * Artemis
 * Athena
 * Hermes
 * Ares

Several minor gods were born as well, such as Persephone.

21st Century Olympians
Due to the Olympians constant fighting among each other, Hestia, the eldest and the youngest siste, decided to take her leave of Olympus. She gave her seat to newcomer, Dionysus. Hades never held a throne on Olympus and kept to his kingdom in the Underworld, not feeling welcomed their only during the winter solistice.

The twelve Olympians were now complete:


 * Zeus
 * Hera
 * Poseidon
 * Demeter
 * Ares
 * Athena
 * Apollo
 * Artemis
 * Hephaestus
 * Aphrodite
 * Hermes
 * Dionysus
