Flaws (2): Can be overconfident, is a bit overpowered
RP example*: I swiftly look at the other gods. Shame on the day they were born. "Hera, just go order them to do something."

"What, my love?" Hera asks.

"ANYTHING!" I yell loud.

Hera sighs. "Fine." She leaves.

I smile, happily. I look at myself in the mirror. I comb my gray beard, then go out.

Personal history*: When Zeus was about to be born, Rhea made a deal with Gaea to save him from Kronos. In Crete, on a mountain, Rhea gave birth to Zeus, and fooled Kronos by giving him a wrapped up rock. Here are wiki's steps on what happened next:


He was then raised by Gaia.
He was raised by a goat named Amalthea, while a company of Kouretes— soldiers, or smaller gods— danced, shouted and clashed their spears against their shields so that Cronus would not hear the baby's cry (see cornucopia).
He was raised by a nymph named Adamanthea. Since Cronus ruled over the Earth, the heavens and the sea, she hid him by dangling him on a rope from a tree so he was suspended between earth, sea and sky and thus, invisible to his father.
He was raised by a nymph named Cynosura. In gratitude, Zeus placed her among the stars.
He was raised by Melissa, who nursed him with goat's-milk and honey.
He was raised by a shepherd family under the promise that their sheep would be saved from wolves.

After this, Zeus forced Kronos to swallow the first stone, in exchange for his siblings back. Zeus then cut his stomach open. Soon, he released the brothers of Kronos, from their dungeon in Tartaus, and that killed the guard, Campe.

Zeus got lighting as a token, which before was hidden by Gaea. Soon, him and his siblings went against the Titans and overthrew them This was the war called Titanomachy. All Titans except Atlas went to Tartaus, and Atlas had to hold up in the sky as his punishment.

Zeus shared the world with his siblings, and each one of them got something. (Example: Poseidon got water). Gaea couldn't be claimed, that's why the three had to share her claiming (Hades got death/underworld, Zeus got the sky, and Poseidon got water.)

Gaea hated how the gods treated the Titans, because they were her children. Zeus soon took the throne, but had to fight some others of Gaea's children, such as Typhon and Echidna. Typhon got trapped under Mount Etna, but Echidna was left alone, along with her children.

Zeus and Hera started having children. One time, a nymph named Echo had the job of distrating Hera from his affairs and such. When Hera discovered it, she cursed Echo of repeating the words of others. Zeus and Hera were back together.

After this, many things happened, such as Zeus meeting PJ. Also, there was another Titan war in which they had to fight Kronos. Zeus offered PJ to be a god, but he denied. Also, Zeus had two children named Thalia and Jason. Zeus was sworn by PJ to make the gods claim their children by 13, and Zeus also wasn't allowed to have much children anymore.

Notes: Zeus's Roman form is Jupiter Optimus Maximus.
