Zeus Panhellenios

History
Zeus is the ruler of Mount Olympus and the father of most of the Gods of Olympus. Born the youngest of the first generation of Olympians, his mother Rhea hid him away until he was old enough to overthrow his father. When he came of age, he freed his siblings by cutting his fathers stomach open. He then freed his fathers siblings the Cyclops, the Gigantes, and the Hecatonchires from their prison in Tartarus.

In return for freeing them, the Cyclopes give Zeus thunder. Zeus, his siblings, and Cronus' brothers overthrew Cronus and the other Titans in a ten year series of battles called Titanomachy. The defeated Titans were then cast into Tartarus, where Cronus had imprisoned his siblings. Atlas, one of the titans that fought against Zeus, was punished by having to hold up the sky.

After the battle, Zeus shared the world with Hades and Poseidon and drew lots to see who got what kingdom. Zeus took the heavens, sky and air, Hades was sent to the Underworld, and Poseidon claimed the sea. The Earth was left for all the gods.

Zeus' symbols are the Thunderbolt, eagle, bull, and oak.
