Zeus

Zeus is the god of thunderstorms. Zeus had two brothers they were Poseidon and Hades.His father was Kronos. His job is to go have kids with other women. His wife gets mad because she doesn't like what he does.In the books of Rick Riordon it is known that he is in Manhattan New York in the empire state building. His roman form is known as Jupiter. The pack of the big three. In the Lighting Thief Percy finds out of the big three. The big three are Poseidon, Hades and Zeus.I think the book said that they made the pack before or after world war two. The pack was made to have no more kids because they were dangerous. Zeus is feared in Olympus.   

   

Poseidon

Poseidon is the god of the sea. He is the god of earthquakes, storm-bringer, he also created horses. His mother is Rhea. In Rome his name is Neptune. His weapon is a trident.  His symbol is a  dolphin, and trident, and fish. When he gets made he makes a huge waves causing shipwrecks, crashes ships and sinks or floods islands. He can speak to horses.


My favorite god is Poseidon I wish I can be a daughter of him so I can speak to horses, control the water, breathe under water,  will be able to see under water. He is not a good dad. He has kids with other women. Even when he is married to Amphitrite. He had two children with her they were called Triton, and Rhode.
He doesn't really look like this i just couldn't find one that's appropriate
