Tyne Serapis Apollo, definitely. I've always had a particular fondness for him :3 He used to be my favourite deity as well. That is, until I learned that he skinned the satyr Marsyas alive over a music contest, slaughtered six innocent children because their mother boasted that she had more children than Leto, killed the venerable Cyclopes after a temper tantrum, and generally became the doom of every poor nymph, eromenos or maiden whom he ever fell in love with. Plus, he seems to hate Thanatos, and Thanatos is one of my all-time favourites.

Where did you here that Apollo hated Thanatos? I've never heard that before.

Midnight Shadow Fae Where did you here that Apollo hated Thanatos? I've never heard that before. From Euripides, Alkestis:
Apollon : Never fear. I have nothing but justice and fair words for you.
Thanatos : If you mean fairly, what are you doing with a bow?
Apollon : it is my custom to carry it with me all the time.
Thanatos : It is your custom to help this house more than you ought.
Apollon : But he is my friend, and his misfortunes trouble me.
Thanatos : You mean to take her body, too, away from me?
Apollon : I never took his body away from you by force.
Thanatos : How is it, then, that he is above ground, not below?
Apollon : He gave his wife instead, and you have come for her now.
Thanatos : I have. And I shall take her down where the dead are.
Apollon : Take her and go. I am not sure you will listen to me.
Thanatos : Tell me to kill whom I must kill. Such are my orders.
Apollon : No, only to put death off. They must die in the end.
Thanatos : I understand what you would say and what you want.
Apollon : Is there any way, then, for Alkestis to grow old?
Thanatos : There is not. I insist on enjoying my rights too.
Apollon : You would not take more than one life in any case.
Thanatos : My privilege means more to me when they die young.
Apollon : If she dies old, she will have a lavish burial.
Thanatos : What you propose, Phoibos, is to favour the rich.
Apollon : What is this? Have you unrecognised talents for debate?
Thanatos : Those who could afford to buy a late death would buy it then.
Apollon : I see. Are you determined not to do this for me?
Thanatos : I will not do it. And you know my character.
Apollon : I know it: hateful to mankind, loathed by the gods.
Thanatos : You cannot always have your way where you should not.
Apollon : For all your brute ferocity you shall be stopped. The man to do it is on the way to Pheres' house now, on an errand from Eurystheos, sent to steal a team of horses from the wintry lands of Thrake. He shall be entertained here in Admetos' house and he shall take the woman away from you by force, nor will you have our gratitude, but you shall still be forced to do it, and to have my hate beside.
Thanatos : Much talk. Talking will win you nothing. All the same, the woman goes with me to Hades' house. I go to take her now, and dedicate her with my sword, for all whose hair is cut in consecration by this blade's edge are devoted to the gods below.Not that Death hates Apollon any less, mind you.

Javier Cross xXxBlack-Flower97xXx I do LOVE Hades, but sadly, he isnt an Olympian... Hades used to be one of the original 6, actually. That said, i have Hades in my top 10! One of the original six Kronides, but he was never officially part of the Dodekatheon, because he never left the Underworld once he ruled over it (people seem to think that he had a lot of conversations with Zeus because of all the complaints he made about Persephone, Asklepios and such...but people also seem to be forgetting that this is what Hermes is for and why he alone among the Olympians can enter the Underworld).

Did the Gods normally gather at the Solstice during the ancient times, dare i ask?

I like Hades, and I thought that Herakles was a demigod, not a god. I might be wrong, maybe he became one, but as far as i can remeber Disney lied and he was a demigod.
