I could name more if Titans and Pre-Pantheon Gods are allowed. I don't particularly see why they wouldn't. If you read Greek texts from during polytheism, they will frequently bring them up. For example in Plato's Euthyphro, the character of Euthyphro justifies his bringing the ancient Greek version of a modern day lawsuit against his father for murder by pointing out how Kronus castrates his father (Ouranos) for trying to prevent the birth of Kronus' siblings, and how Zeus overthrows Kronus for doing the same thing. Plus rather famous works like Hesiod's Theogony make a point to include as many as possible. And Prometheus is a titan. | |

And Prometheus is a titan. Usually when people say Greek Gods, they think of the Pantheon, so I was assuming only the Pantheon would be allowed. | |

| Hey guys, let's make a thread where I post a huge amount of bullshit unprovable claims about how good I supposedly am at everything. That sounds like a socially acceptable thing to do. | |

Sounds awesome. I know, I just logged into my MonPandamari account to do so because I don't think the Tellen Silversun account could handle all the praise it's getting. | |
