Under Construction By Robo тнe вιg тнree The Big Three are the three most powerful gods in all of Olympus: Zeus, Lord of the Sky, Poseidon, Lord of the Seas, and Hades, Lord of the Underworld. In the beginning, after they had defeated their father, Kronos, they drew lots to see who would get where as their domain. Zeus received the sky, Poseidon received the sea, and Hades received the Underworld. Zeus retains control over the sky and the weather, Poseidon can manipulate water, storms, and earthquakes, Hades can summon the undead, control shadows, and use earth-related disasters. Therefore, the Big Three are equally matched for the most part. The powers of the Big Three are also directly related as Zeus' control over the weather originates from the Earth's seas, which is Poseidon's domain, while Poseidon's control over storms and natural disasters are linked to the weather, which is Zeus' domain. Hades retains his power from people dying while Zeus and Poseidon get their power from people living, fishing, and praying to them. However, people believe that Zeus is the strongest, followed by Poseidon, and then Hades, due to possessing the Master Bolt as his standard weapon and being the King of the Gods.
Zeus Zeus is the King of Olympus and God of the Sky, Weather, Lightning, Kingship, Order, Honor and Justice. Zeus is considered to be the first of the Olympian Gods and a very imposing figure. He is often referred to as the Father of the Gods and Men. He is widely known to mating with many Goddesses and mortal women, much to the displeasure of his wife, Hera. His symbols are the Thunderbolt, Eagle and Oak Tree and his Roman counterpart is Jupiter. Child: (Robotic Dominican)

As a member of the Big Three, he was divide a portion of the Earth (The Seas). His main domain (residence) is that of Atlantis. Among campers, he is known famously for his feud with Athena. He and Athena competed for possession of the city of Athens. To sway the people in his favor, Poseidon made it spring at the Acropolis. Athena, on the other hand, gave them the olive tree. With it, she won the contest. His symbols are the Sea, Trident, Horse, and Dolphin. His Roman counterpart is Neptune. Child: Marisa Pombal (Aquos Dragoa)
Hades Greek God of the Dead, Subterranean regions and Riches. He is Ruler of the Underworld, and despite being a Big Three, is not considered one of the Olympians. His wife is Persephone. His symbol of power is the Helm of Darkness. Child: Gerald Emerson (Genji Gincosu)

тнe powerғυl nιne Aside from the Big Three, there are nine other Olympian Deities that sit upon the thrones of Olympus. While not as powerful as the members of the Big Three, they are still equally powerful in their own rights. These Gods are known for having an array of children as opposed to the Big Three who tend to have only one or maybe two.
Hera Hera is the Goddess of Familial Love, Marriage, Motherhood and Women. She is wife of Zeus and the Queen of Olympus. Due to the nature of what role she plays as goddess, the likely hood of a demigod coming from her (in other words betraying her husband) is very low. Hera is known to be proud and extremely jealous when provoked, insulted, or shown unfaithfulness to. Even Zeus himself is afraid of his wife when she is furiously angry. Due to her being the Goddess of Marriage, she has great loathing for the mistresses and illegitimate children of Zeus, since they are all concrete evidence of her husband's infidelities. Therefore, she is often portrayed as mercilessly persecuting Zeus' mistresses and illegitimate children, and doing everything in her power to make their lives as miserable as possible, with Hercules being the most infamous example. Her Roman counterpart is Juno. Child: -
Demeter Demeter is the Goddess of the Harvest, Agriculture (Presiding Over Grains and Fertility of the Earth), and Seasons. As an Elder Olympian, Demeter is an extremely powerful goddess, more so than her older sister, Hestia, but not as powerful as her younger sister, Hera and her Big Three brothers. Due to her having divine control over agriculture, she will often punish those who offend her with famine or hunger. She is also the Goddess of the Seasons, and hence could change the climate and state of the earth. When she is with Persephone, the daughter whom she loves most dearly, the earth is warm and ripe, but when Persephone is away with her husband Hades, the world is dark and bare. Her roman counterpart is Ceres. Children:
Athena Athena is the Virgin Goddess of Wisdom, Handicrafts, Useful Arts, and Battle Strategy. She is a Virgin Goddess for she conceives her children literally through thought (no physical contact needed). She is the daughter of Zeus and Metis, and her symbols include the Owl, Aegis, the Olive Tree, and the Snake. Her Roman counterpart is Minerva. Children: Tatiana Yanelle (Tsuki-chan4)
Apollo Apollo is one of the most complex and important gods, and is the god of many things, including: the Sun, Light, Music, Poetry, Art, Reason, Prophecy, Archery, Plague, Healing. He is the son of Zeus and the Titan Leto, and was born in the Greek island of Delos, along with his older twin sister Artemis – Goddess of the hunt. Together they are known as the Twin Archers. His symbols are the Lyre, the Sun, Mice, and the Laurel tree. Children: Atlan Barr (Klayko)
Artemis Greek Virgin Goddess of the Hunt, the Moon, Chastity, Animals, and the Wilderness. Twin sister of Apollo (Twin Archers). Due to being a Virgin Goddess she has no children (nor demigods) as she has never been with a man, nor does she produce children like Athena (via thought). She however has a group of handmaidens known as the Hunters of Artemis. These group of young women turn they back from the company of men, pledging themselves to the goddess. Her Roman counter part is Diana. Hunters of Artemis:
Ares Ares is known widely as the God of War. More specifically, Ares represents the violent and physical untamed aspect of war, which is in contrast to Athena who represents military strategy and generalship as the goddess of intelligence. Although Ares embodied the physical aggression necessary for success in war, the Greeks were ambivalent toward him because he was a dangerous, overwhelming force that was insatiable in battle. His symbols are the Dog, Wild boar, and Vulture. His Roman counterpart is Mars. Children: Mavis Valentine (Yaroki)
Aphrodite Aphrodite is the Goddess of Beauty, Love, Lust, Desire, Sexuality, Pleasure, and Procreation. Because of her beauty, other gods feared that jealousy would interrupt the peace among them and lead to war, and so Zeus married her to Hephaestus, who was not viewed as a threat. Aphrodite had many lovers, both Gods like Ares and Hermes, and men like Anchises. She is perhaps the goddess with the most frequent amount of demigods. Her symbols are the Dove, Swan, and Roses. Her Roman counterpart is Venus. Children:
Hephaestus Hephaestus is the God of Fire, Technology, Blacksmiths, Craftsmen, Volcanoes, Forges, and Sculptors. He was the son of Zeus and Hera and married to Aphrodite by Zeus to prevent a war of the gods fighting for her hand. He is directly responsible for crafting the weapons of the Gods as their Master Forger. Within his forge assisting him are typically the three Elder Cyclopes, as well as his twin Kabeiroi sons (Alkon and Eurymedon). Hephaestus’s ugly appearance was the reason Zeus chose him to marry Aphrodite, but despite this she had many affairs with both gods and men. His symbols are the Ax, An Anvil, A Pair of Tongs, Hammer, and Fire. Children: Jessie Kaoru Marlowe (konaustin)
Hermes Hermes, like Apollo, is a God of many things. He is the God of Messengers, Commerce, Travel, Trade, Thieves, Travelers, Sports and Athletes, and Guide to the Underworld. He was the second youngest Olympian God and was the son of Zeus and Maia, one of the seven Pleiades and daughter of the Titan Atlas. As the God of Boundaries and Transitions, Hermes was known to be quick and cunning and had the ability to freely move between the mortal and divine worlds. It is this skill that made him a luck-bringing messenger to the gods and intercessor between mortals and the divine. At times he would outwit the other Gods and Goddesses either for the benefit of mankind or for his own amusement. He owns a Delivery company known as OPS and his symbols are the Caduceus, and Crane. His Roman counterpart is Mercury. Children: Dante Ramirez (Rebel the DESTROYA)
Dionysus Dionysus is the God of Grape-Harvest, Wine, Madness, Parties, Ecstasy and the Arts. He created wine and spread the art of viticulture. He had a dual nature; on one hand, he brought joy and divine ecstasy; or he would bring brutal and blinding rage, thus reflecting the dual nature of wine. He is also known as Mr. D, the camp director of Camp Half-Blood. He was placed as the director by his father Zeus as punishment for chasing after an off-limits nymph. His symbols are the Thyrsus, Grapevine, Leopard skin, Panther, Tiger, Cheetah and his Roman counterpart is Bacchus. Children: Bryony Wood (Femme Feral)
Hestia Hestia is the Virgin Goddess of the Hearth, Home, Right Ordering of Domesticity, and Family. She keeps watch over Camp Half Blood. Hestia was the first of Kronos' children to be swallowed and because of the vivid memory of it, she wore to become a Virgin Goddess. At one time she was counted among the Twelve Olympians but later gave up her place to Dionysus. Her symbols are the Sacred Flame and Donkey.Her Roman counterpart is Vesta. As a Virgin Goddess she has no children..

He has been said to do nothing much but sleep, and did not play a role in the last Second Olympian War, implying that he is a lazy god (if not the laziest).

Nemesis Greek Goddess of Balance, Justice, Retributions and Vengeance. Her Roman counterpart is also called Nemesis for revenge does not change from Greek to Roman myths, it is universal.
