Only one edit: Poseidon already exists as a card, change the name of that god.

As a serie they are good, not exactly equal, that's impossible, but well balanced.
I think the weapon should be changed if anything.  Let this fit.  Maybe change the name (of the weapon to) Triton

Okay, look here (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twelve_Olympians#List_of_the_Olympians) for the 12 olympians. And Rainbowz, you can edit your card, you'll have to anyways, to make it better

I haven't the time to read this massive topic, but after seeing the first page I'd like to let you know that Zanz has stated that he will not give any cards other than the Weapons / Shields a name that details a personal identity.

So Names that will fail by default because they have a personal identity:
"Bob the Builder"
"Zeus"
"Bloodshadow Devilord"

Alternates that may work because they are the creature type without an Identity:
"Suburban Builder"
"Demigod of Thunder"
"Blood Shade"

See now here's where we're getting into sources.

My sources disagree with yours, that's all.

Mythology by Edith Hamilton, one of the most noted writers on Classical Mythology, lists the Olympians as being Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Hades, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Aphrodite, Hermes, Ares, Hephaestus, and Hestia.

Zeus's brothers being Poseidon and Hades, and his sisters being Hestia and Hera (also his wife). His children were Ares, Athena, Apollo, Hermes, and Artemis. Sometimes also considered his children were Hephaestus and Aphrodite.

These are the 12 great Olympians. The gods of Olympus, who reside therein.

Demeter and Dionysus were considered Earthly Gods, because they did not reside in Olympus, and instead delighted in the revelry of man, who worshiped both as great gods of the earth. Demeter for providing the Harvest, and Dionysus for providing the wine.

While other lesser gods did live in Olympus (not to be mistaken with Mount Olympus, a different place), they were not considered to be part of the Great Olympians, for their role was lesser in regards to man's life. These gods were Eros, The Graces, The Muses, Hebe, and many others, though less often mentioned. There were also ideals who had become embodied that resided in Olympus. These were Themis, Divine Justice; Dike, Human Justice; Nemesis, Righteous Anger; and Aidos, the sense of respect and shame that keeps humans from sinning.

For some reason, I find this funny.

I actually like the idea of making this Demigods, like Demigod of Thunder, or Demigod of the Moon.

Eh, I like the series anyway.

Also, as if you both referenced 'Wikipedia' in a debate. Shall I go edit the article to show Edith Hamilton's 12 Olympians instead?

I don't bother editing Wikipedia, because well, any idiot with an internet connection can edit any wikipedia article.

I'd rather site their original sources instead.


Well see, it's a difference of Sources is all. We don't really know who the Greeks classified as Olympians, because even the Ancient Sources disagree.

I know that several less noted authors don't include Poseidon and Hades as part of the Olympians, because their primary homes were in their own domains.

lol Rainbowz, why did you say sorry to me? I suggested Hecate for darkness remember :P

I also suggested Thanatos, the actual God of Death, for Death and Janus for Time, as he's the God of New Beginnings, and I don't think Aphrodite fits time at all. She's classically considered to be most directly related to water, as she was born of the Sea Foam, according to most classical sources, being born when Cronus's testicles fell into the ocean.

Well, she's the god of love, beauty, and sexuality. I don't think time fits any of those, but nothing else does, and it kind of fits there, because supposedly love is forever. IDK though, you could put her in a lot of places if you had a decent argument
