For fun I’m going to try listing as many Greek deities as I can from memory, this will pale in comparison to the real total but it will be fun nonetheless (I’ve probably made many spelling mistakes)
I don’t remember if Orion the hunter is just a hero/demigod or if he is a god. Same for Perseus.
Damn. That’s less than I thought. Can I name all nine muses still?
Idk like half the muses are muses of song and there’s significant overlap in all of them if I recall correctly.
Anyway it’s late so I’m going to bed, I’ll see how wrong I was when I woke up lol
Oh also I have never played the game you mentioned but I have siblings who were very into the Percy Jackson books lol
Excellent work, but I would be remiss if I didn't point out the glaring lack of the great war strategy goddess Athena, borne from Zeus' head fully clad in armor she made for herself, giving Zeus a terrible migraine (and with Hephaestus as a midwife).
Damnit I think I combined her with Artemis because that’s one of the weird birth stories I was talking about. Also yeah I really can’t believe I missed one of the main gods.
Turpsicorian.
I learned that from Cats. (Hence I may not have spelt it correctly).
Pretty great effort here. Not surprising that you weren't sure about Hera's dominion, in pretty much every story she's basically the god of "my wife is such a bitch lol"
Isn't Hera the goddess of wisdom and learning?
You wouldn't know it from the tales. Most people would go looking for Athena or possibly Metis on those counts.
