Phoebe is the Titaness of Mystery. She is a member of the first generation of the Titans, daughter of Ouranos and Gaea, the sister-wife of Koios, and the mother of Asteria and Leto.
History[]
Phoebe was born as both the penultimate youngest Titaness and the tenth-born of the twelve Titans, the eldest of the three races born to Gaea (Mother Earth) and Ouranos (Father Sky). She, her sisters and her eldest brother Oceanus, all refused to take part in Kronos' usurpation and subsequent castration of Ouranos.
She lived on Delphi. She was one of the first people to figure out how to hear the voices of Delphi. After Phoebe and Koios got married, they only saw each other once in a while since they lived very far apart.
Personality[]
According to Percy Jackson's Greek Gods, she wasn't a gloomy, mysterious sort of fortune-teller and always looked on the positive side of things. Her prophecies tended to be only good stuff.
Abilities[]
- Prophecy: As the Titaness of Mystery, Phoebe held the gift of foresight and could see into the future as well as decree prophecies. She was the original holder of the Oracle of Delphi alongside Themis before passing it down to her grandson Apollo whom inherited her prophetic abilities.
- Titanic Energy: Like all Titans, Phoebe has the ability to blast things hundreds of yards away from herself with a yell or a wave of the hand.
- Titanic Divine Form: As a Titaness, Phoebe has the ability to incinerate any being lesser than a god/Titan only by being present.
- Tongue of the Old Times fluency: According to Tyson, this is the ancient language that Gaea spoke to the Titans, Elder Cyclopes and Hekatonkheires before the birth of the Olympian gods. Hence, Phoebe understands and speaks it perfectly.
