Character Background
Poseidon is the Greek god of the seas, earthquakes and horses in Greek mythology and a major figure of ancient mythology. He is the son of Kronos and Rhea, and the brother of Hades, Zeus, Hera, Hestia, and Chiron. Some even believe that he is stronger than Zeus, although, he, Zeus and Hades possibly have the same strength. Also, like Hades, he was also partially an underworld god, but not the ruler of it.
Poseidon was born by Rhea but Kronos shallowed him, afraid of a child taking his throne. When Zeus saved his siblings from Kronos's stomach, Poseidon, like all the other siblings of Zeus, was freed. But this caused Kronos's anger and led to the Titanomachy.
Poseidon rallied with Zeus and his siblings, beginning the war against the titans called the Titanomahcy. The war lasted ten years, but they succeeded in overthrowing the titans, throwing them into the deepest pits of Tartarus. That's because Zeus freed the imprisoned Cyclops and Hecatoncheires Uranus trapped. Poseidon, Zeus, and Hades drew lots to see who would rule each of Kronos' kingdoms, the sky, the seas, and the underworld. Zeus choice the sky, Poseidon was given the seas, and Hades was given the underworld. Poseidon was angered because Zeus claimed the heavens, seeing the handout of the seas as patronizing. His jealousy would lead him to clash with Zeus, and attempt to out due him in everything. Although Poseidon is one of the twelve Olympians, he rarely leaves his underwater palace, just like his brother Hades.
