Male or female, Greco-Roman or Micronesian, god of death or god of wine...in the end, who tops the cake for you for the coolest mythological figure or diety who you just can't get enough of in the stories? XP

Of any mythology?

Zeus.

Zeus = Sleeps with anything. Whether it be a inanimate object or some other guy's wife, he's there. :P

And Athena coming out of his head? It just doesn't get any better.

Zeus sleeps with anything? What about Loki, he sleeps with giant horses!

Personally though my favourite is FSM.

Zeus will go so far as to disguise himself as a swan to get some sex. I would say a sawn beats a horse as sawns aren't even mammals. Loki's not technically a god anyway.

While most of the male Greek gods are outright sexy, I'm going to have to go with FSM.

It's gotta be Athena.

Or The Lady from Discworld! Or something else that I haven't thought of yet...

Oh, I know. KEFKA. Pray to the almighty Kefka!

I'm going to have to go with Athena. What can beat a hot chick with a sword who (probably) likes physics?

BTW, both Thor and Anubis are featured on Stargate. Cool, huh?

In the rapildy-turning-to-crap Ultimate Marvel comics, Thor is a drunk hippy who hangs out at nightclubs with teenagers that have everything pierced.

Sounds like pizazz to me.

Thor is a cross-dresser. Nothing wrong with that though. Mjolnir was in danger anyway. Yeah, Thor rocks. I think Idun's cool too, if she asks.

I'd pick Kefka (Final Fantasy III) or the Golden Goddesses (Zelda OoT), but we're talking about actual mythologies here. Bah.

I pick the Male God of War (name?).

Okay, here's where I'm confused; there is a God and Goddess of War, and I think they both are named Ares. This can't be right... oh, and it's Greek mythology, I think. I'm talking about the Male Ares, not the female one.

Although I could've just been horribly screwed up due to watching a show on Teletoon for too long (flipped the channel there by accident), which portrays a female Goddess of War.

Ahh, yes, that's it! That's where I got confused... my favorite is Ares then.

Bastet. Always has been and always will be. <3 Close seconds are Sekhmet, Anubis, and Aphrodite though.

Kintaro is cool too...but he's not technically a god...

Haha, I saw Shigeryu Miyamoto appear in a japanese mythology book. That was pretty funny.

No I don't care if I spelled it wrong.

No. More. Video game characters. You go to gaming for that. This is for real book learnin' stuff. Kefka the Clown God, bah. XD

- Ares is the god of aggressive war, but is ultimately a coward when faced with any challenge directly. Athena is the goddess of battle and defensive war, while having a vastly superior intellect (and.. vanity, but they all have that) and far greater courage. She was always my favorite Greek war deity.

My favorite overall god would either have to be Enki, the god of wisdom; Ishtar/Inanna, the goddess of war and lust; or Ninhursag, the feisty goddess of earth. All from Sumerian mythology. Or Mesopotamian mythology in general, really. Mesopotamian was like Greek/Roman myths. Just name conversions for the most part.

Hmmm, yes, Athena definatly would be my favourite diety. Can't beat someone great in battle, and Goddess of wisdom too; by all rights she should be Zeus's better and at least is his military equal. Good with the weaving too, must be useful when someone tears a toga.

Not even characters from books or flims :( ?

Heh. Sorry Kitten, Prometheus was technically a Titan, not a god. My favorite god would have to be Tulkas. But he's from a book, sooo . . . erm . . . probably Hercules. Even though he only became a god after death.

Lena, you just love Ishtar because she's big-breasted and huge-hipped. XD That chick had curves like nobody's business....and an attitude from hell if you didn't love her for it.

...poor Gilgamesh.


My faves? Well, c'mon. Loki, Loki, Loki. Sexy, mischievous, able to change his form at a moment's notice, loved sex, enjoyed seeing how much trouble he could get into and still manage to slip right out of again, but he still had his gentle side as the god of the hearth- willing to protect humble housewives if they only asked. Was he a god or actually born from the giants? That's disputable.

Often pictured with flaming red hair and an evil grin, he and his children (all of whom I also love) Hel: apathetic half amazingly beautiful/half putrid and rotting goddess of the underworld, Fenrir the giant wolf, and Jörmungandr the Midgard Serpent who can wrap himself around the world will join together with his giantess wife Angrboda and her kinsmen to fight in the final battle at the end of the world, Ragnarok, against the gods in search of total domination and revenge for the suffering the Aesir and Vanir have brought him!


*swoons* Ah, Loki. ^^

I love Ishtar because she's violent and doesn't take crap from people. Like banishing her no good husband to hell because he only married her for power. And unlike FREYA, she doesn't sell herself to four dwarves/hobbits for a shiny necklace.


...She just gets drunk after battle and has one night stands. And swears a lot.


Much better, clearly!
