Having been binging God of War music on YouTube, the idea of a thread came to me: Who would you rather be the Demigod bastard child (or grandchild, or great-grandchild, or great-great-grandchild...) of Zeus? Or the illegitimate kin of Odin?

Personally, I veer towards Odin, as he usually has his children with women who are talented in some way (strong, intelligent, expert in certain magiks etc.), so, to me, having a legendary warrior reveal his relation to me would be appreciated, because he'd see some potential. Whatever it might be.
 
Zeus is a sex pest and the origin of most mythological creatures that wreak havoc on the world. Dude can't keep it in his pants and fucked as horses, bulls and whatever else he fancied being at the time - so he's also a furry.

AllFather is all-knowing and gouged out one of his eyes for knowledge. Enough said.

Odin made the filthy jotun Loki his blood brother despite the fact that he knows he will betray him and destroy the world, but he still lets him be in the Norse pantheon and live in Asgard.

Did Odin ever transform into an animal to fuck women? Even if he did he's probably still less of a furry than Zeus. I know Loki turned into a female horse to get fucked by a stallion but he was always a liability.

I'd rather be one of God's children.
 
I choose Zeus, Greek mythology is often just hyper realized Greek fantasy. Fuck tons of women, have super powers, shit like that. Morality doesn't really play into it too much, Hercules labors are essentially just an unstoppable guy going around doing whatever the fuck he wanted because he could.

Norse mythology is a bit lotr but there is no happy ending. I think because of that ending (ragnarok) there is a prevailing philosophy of fatalism in everything.

That's my nerd answer.

Herakles' exploits:
1. Get enslaved and clean horse shit all day
2. Get enslaved, buck broken and forced to cross-dress
3. Get enslaved and tricked into holding up the sky
4. Die to a literal sweater

Real male fantasy right there...
 
Greek mythology gay AF compared to awesome Norse mythology.

Greek mythology usually about "male bonding" i.e. touching each others' dicks. Norse mythology usually about apocalypse

Odin nailed self to World Tree for nine nights like a fucking boss and gouged out own eye to attain wisdom. Zeus only raped kids as a hobby, god of paedophiles

Valkyries >>>>>> Muses

Mount Olympus clearly a gay orgy as opposed to based Valhalla with endless drinking and singing

Operas about Greek shit = mostly weak
Operas about Norse mythology = Entire Ring Cycle

Zeus is a buftie scared of his wife whereas based Allfather so secure in his masculinity he practises witchcraft

Space Wolves can 100% have poofter Ultramarines in every fight. Wolf wolf wolf

Zeus' only based kids were also all girls (Athena, Helen, Persephone, Artemis); sons all poofters. Odin father of MIGHTY THOR

Day of week still named after based Odin. Nothing named after Zeus

Greek religious festivals celebrated nowhere. Yule remains predominant religious festival of world and also world's top commercial event

1. Get enslaved and clean horse shit all day
2. Get enslaved, buck broken and forced to cross-dress
3. Get enslaved and tricked into holding up the sky

He also committed a number of murders and genocide. Not to mention many things were added to the story in later years that are a bit of fanfic. It's been a minute since I've done a refresh, but its light on morals and heavy on doing whatever he wants.
 
Zeus' kids become eternal legends and retire to other realms, or live among the stars as constellations. Odin's kids eventually get summoned from Valhalla to fight in Ragnarok and lose.

If you're gonna be immortal, you need to think about the long game.

Loki got all the gods cool stuff.
Freyr's Skidbladnir and Gullinbursti
Odin's Gungnir and Draupnir
Sif's golden hair
Thor's Mjolnir

There are 100 different subforums where you could post this shit.
It's not a regular occurance that I post a thread, so some of the features are still a bit new to me. *Shrug*

@not william stenchever No, but in one of the stories, he wanted The Mead of Poetry, which belonged to the Giant, Gilling, but he made the mistake of having his daughter, Gunnlod stay in the mountain and guard it. Odin morphed into a dashing pretty boy, and the two slept together, all while Odin sampled the Mead.

In the end, when Gilling returned home, Odin morphed into a snake, then into an eagle, and took the Mead of Poetry with him. He also knocked Gunnlod up, which resulted in Bragi, the half Æsir, half Jötunn God of Music and Poetry, who would become aware of his heritage as the second known son of The All-Father, go to Asgard, and marry Idunn (the Goddess who guarded the apples of the same name), when he came of age.

@isalaide Odin is supposed to have had a daughter, but the rest of his spawn are sons, so it's brushed under the carpet. Also, might I add that Nepr, Baldur's father-in-law, is usually listed as one of Odin's sons, so poor Baldur inadvertently married his half-niece, but that's not as at face value bad as Primordials, Titans, and Olympians, having to shag their brothers and sisters, simply because, at the start, there weren't any "pure-blooded" members to reproduce with.

Some of the Olympians, such as, of course, Poseidon and Zeus were worse, though. For example, they both fucked their sister, Demeter: By Zeus, she had Persephone, and by Poseidon, she had a son, Arion, an intelligent, talking horse, because Poseidon wouldn't take no for an answer, and she ran away in the form of a mare, but Poseidon gave chase in the form of a stallion, and... had his way with her.

Hera was also their sister, but Zeus was married to her, and she didn't have an affair with Poseidon, or anyone else, I don't think, as she was a Goddess of Marriage. Although, in Poseidon's case, he definitely raped Demeter. Some accounts even involve Zeus having a daughter with Persephone... Yeah.

Zeus wasn't a pedophile, but he was gay with some twink, whom he loved/lusted after so much, he made him virtually immortal, and him and Poseidon, of course are infamous for their using their shapeshifting to boink women. One example that comes to mind: Zeus, in the form of a swan, knocked Leda, Princess of Sparta, up with Pollux and Helen (as in, Helen of Troy), but not Castor (or whatever his original Greek name is. Same thing with Pollux, 'cos I can't remember that, either), because somehow, his biological father was Leda's husband.

About Baldur's wife, however: she was Nanna, the Æsir Goddess of Joy, Spring, and the Moon, and the moon part of her, for lack of better words, title(s) or association, makes her somewhat similar to Rhiannon, Welsh Goddess of the Moon, Reconciliation, and Horses (Baldur and Nanna's son, Forseti, is also counted as a God of Reconciliation, but is mostly known for being the Æsir God of Law and Justice), Selene, Titaness of the Moon, and Pandia, half Titaness, half Olympian Goddess of the Moon, and daughter of Selene and Zeus.

@m1ddl3m4rch Which is why Sif has black hair in Marvel, as a reference to Loki's prank. And I like seeing appreciation for The Spear of Heaven. Some images for ya:

From here: https://mythicalcreatures.info/characters/gungnir/

But my favourite look for Gungnir is from God of War. I like the wooden carved look to it, and it doubles as a badass looking walking stick/All-Pimp cane:

@Tablet County Hindu mythology is bonkers, what with certain Gods having 40 avatars. I did Religious Education in high school, and my favourite story was that of Hanuman.
