Yeah, I think she came out of his head when Ares(?) chopped it in half.

This thread caused me to grow a dense beard and start beating metal with my BARE MANLY FISTS.
I might actually have to contribute.

I thought Athena was born from Chronus's head when Zeus cut him up in rebellion after his mother hid him from Chronus' child eating habits?

I tried tracing deonideas's family tree, but it proved to be beyond my skills.

It seems however that Tanya is doubtlessly his mother, while the figure of his father is disputed between leonidas, alexander the great and attila the hun.

I propose we construct a dwarven time machine to locate deonideas and take a genetic sample so we can at least know who is in his progentry.

Also, tadpoles.

Deonidas could only have one father:

FATHER TIME

He could only have one mother:

MOTHER NATURE

And his midwife?

WAR

Yeah. That's right. Father time, Mother nature, and one of the four horsemen of the apocalypse.

I didn't know War worked as a midwife in his spare hours. Does famine bake charity cookies?

IIRC, Athena was born from Zeus's head after he killed Kronos.

*Eye twitches

First off, Zeus did not kill Chronus/Kronos.  Kronos was IMMORTAL, he cannot be killed.  He was locked up in Tartarus.

Second, Athena had nothing to do with Kronos.  She sprang fully formed from Zeus's head after he bedded another Titan.

Finally, you're thinking of the sky father (Called Uranus in roman mythology) when you say Kronos was cut up.  Kronos killed him with a scythe, and the blood + sea foam gave birth to Aphrodite, the goddess of love.

The version I remember involves Kronos cutting off Uranus' dong, then tossing that into the ocean. Which actually makes sense, considering Aphrodite's portfolio.

Zeus didn't castrate anyone. Cuckolding and cockblocking the hell out of every mortal and immortal in existence was more his style.
