When he sets his mind to something, he gets it done. The Spear never misses. It could strike down a far-standing grandfather whose throne you seek as easily as a near-standing human who stole the sun. Speaking of burning things, the weapon is too hot for anyone to handle except Lugh.
And the longer he uses it, the hotter it becomes. Other weapons are stored in saferooms or locked drawers, but the spear has to rest in a vat of water at night to cool down. This is critical. Should Lugh forget, the heat will grow until the spear catches fire and basically burns the world down. A royal warrior solar diety. An overly-dangerous mental focus. So, when he tells you to get moving, you happily take your gift basket and follow him down the mountain.
Name : Mithra Religion : Persian mythology Realms : God of the rising Sun, friendship, war, covenants, contracts, the seasons, cosmic order, royalty Fun Fact : Conspiracy theorists believe that this ancient god was poached by Christianity to create Jesus.
Your adventure ends with a movie moment; you and Mithra are sitting on your front porch watching the sun rise back to its rightful place in the sky. After all, he is the god associated with the rising Sun.
Instead, this god appreciates order. For thousands of years, he has wielded his power to keep the seasons and cosmos ticking like clockwork. Back in the day, Mithra protected kings and gave them a divine right to rule. However, he made them sign a contract to keep the order — but more specifically, the god wanted to see leaders who cared for their people. Neglecting them was a good way to break a covenant with him, and if they did then he removed his support from the king.
Nobody wanted that — this god kept the forces of darkness in check, judged souls in the afterlife, and protected humanity.
The god conjures a contract which states that you will never interfere with divine matters again. You are done with trying to turn a celestial body into profit. You like Mithra, he seems like a cool guy. Things turned out pretty well — besides the threats and bribes from the angrier gods. Both the gods wanted to make a passing traveler remove his clothing. Boreas blew and blew at the traveler but this only made him wrap his clothing around himself more tightly.
Helios, however, made the traveler get warmer and warmer so that he willingly removed his clothing, making Helios the winner. Apollo came after Helios and was identified with him. While Helios is the personification of the sun, Apollo is the god of light.
As the god of the sun, Helios played an important role in ancient Greek mythology, known for riding the Sun Chariot across the sky each day. He was credited with keeping the world alive in this way. Although he was later overshadowed no pun intended by Apollo, he remains the most well-known sun god of the Greek pantheon. Tags: Greek Symbols Mythology. Affiliate Disclosures.

Here is a summary of them. At one point, Apollo decided that he needed an assistant, particularly to help with the prophetic side of his nature. So, he decided to find an oracle that could foretell the future. The problem is he wanted an oracle that would give more than just vague answers. He also wanted to have some fun with his gift.
