Greek Myhtology - FeedBack

Hey everyone! I have an idea for a story but want everyone’s opinion on it. So just about everyone knows of Zues, Hades, Gaia, Hera, Artemis, etc etc… but what about the ones we don’t know about? Or even those we do, how much do we really know about them? I don’t know, I thought it could be a cool idea to make a story about the whole Greek Mythology world. If you could leave some names of gods, goddesses, demi-gods, etc… that way I can make sure I get them all plus some that are unpopular to most. Thank you :smiley: :hearts:

Honestly, I can’t remember many outside of the main 12.

Selene, Helios, Eros, Hebe and Persephone are all minor, but are still relatively well-known.

The most unknown God I can think of is Koalemos, God of Stupidity, who has little to no recorded information and who’s existence was pretty much mentioned only once by Aristophanes, but he’s not always referred to as a god.

Some links

I’m assuming these lists repeat a bunch.

a list of minor gods & goddesses
a list of minor goddesses
another list of minor gods & goddesses

edit: just remembered Circe, another minor goddess.

I know she is popular but she’s my favorite,

Athena
Daughter of zeus (Was given to zeus as a prize for winning a war)
Has a bad relationship with zeus
One of the three main deity’s because she took hades chair as a gift from zeus after winning the war of Athens against Poseidon (the god of the sea, another main deity and zeus’ brother) who is her immortal enemy.
Athena is not only the patron goddess of wisdom but is all the goddess of war
Athena’s symbol is an owl

She’s the daughter of Helios
