"We don't receive wisdom; we must discover it for ourselves after a journey that no one can take for us or spare us." -- Marcel Proust, French novelist (1871 - 1922)
Name: Athena; currently known as Athena Pallas Association: Goddess Age: Immortal Occupation: Bookstore owner. And not one of those tacky chains either -- rare first editions, esoterica, that sort of thing. Also owns several other buildings next to her bookstore. Affiliation with others: Oh, I know all sorts. Zeus was my father, Metis my mother. Hephaestus gave me a son, Erichthonius, though not in the way he'd hoped. Medusa owes her hairstyle to me and Poseidon and I had a little friendly competition going over Athens. (We all know how that turned out.) My dear Nike. A lot of the crowd owes me a little something... Herakles, Perseus, Odysseus... Where do you stand with regard to the upcoming war?: Whichever side it is will win.
MYTHOLOGY
The Greek goddess Athena is usually portrayed as one of the most benevolent goddesses ... strong, fair, and merciful.
Athena is known as one of the three virgin goddesses, referred to as virgin because they were able to remain independent, unswayed by the spells of Aphrodite, the goddess of love, and the consequent pull of marriage and motherhood. Romance and marriage did not feature in Athena's mythology.
Although usually depicted holding a spear, her golden helmet pushed back to reveal her elegant beauty, the Greek goddess Athena was known more for her role as judge, diplomat, and mediator than for actually fighting in battle. Her decisions were renowned for their fairness and compassion.
