Name of Deity - Athena
Main Patronage of Deity - Wisdom
Secondary Patronage of Deity - Craftsmanship, Shipbuilding and Navigation
Usual Height - 5 foot 10 inches
Personality - Appears calm and logical making her an excellent choice to help mediate between men or gods. She favours her father Zeus and likes to act as a big sister to Apollo. She does however “lose her cool” frequently with those closest to her. This does not necessarily mean that she gets angry, but they are able to make her ignore the logical side of her personality. Athena is fiercely protective of her family and as Arachne learnt will abide no one criticising them. Her anger is swift and her judgement final though not untempered by compassion. She does not always get along with Ares the Patron of Sparta as she is passionate about her own city and they are often in contention with Sparta.
Favoured Activities - Helping heroes, also has a love of hanging around with members of her family and picnics as she can rest and remove her armour.
Unfavoured Activities - Spending time with Ares, because he is unable to control his Spartans and they upset her flawless Athenians. Going anywhere near Sparta to help any of her worshippers.
Likes - Forests, those who use their brains and watching over her younger siblings
Dislikes - Ares because he cheats and going out in the rain in all her armour.
Favoured Animal - Owl
Key Opinions - Everyone just needs a push in the right direction to make the correct decision. She also believes Ares should make his Spartans behave more appropriately.
Opinion of Worshippers - Honours her worshippers and protects the City of Athens though she often has favourites amongst them.
Symbolic Item - Owl and Aegis (small shield) showing the head of Medusa
Family - Daughter of Zeus and Metis, whom Zeus ate (yes literally nyom nyom nyom). She was born fully armed bursting forth from Zeus’ head when he requested one of the other gods split it open (major headache). She was Zeus’ first child. Her birth inspired Hera to conceive and bear a child of her own without the help of anyone else.
Personal Quirks - She is averse on the whole to others touching her though there are a few exceptions.
Anything Extra - She knows best!
