Athena - God of Wisdom
Athena is the Goddess of Knowledge and Warfare. She is a wise and cunning divinity, yet arrogant to a point.
Athena can be found sharing her wisdom and immense knowledge to only a favoured few. Otherwise she can commonly be found researching and strategising, gathering all possible knowledge and perspective that is available.
Athena is said to be the offspring of the Goddess Hecate, though the story of her birth has many versions. The primary one is that Athena was born out of the mind of the God Zeus after being implanted by Hecate.
Athena is commonly worshipped by politicians, scholars and those who pursue knowledge. Athea is also worshipped by generals and strategists looking for battle guidance, alongside her brother Ares.
Athena is exclusively depicted as feminine, commonly as a muscular, middle age figure with long dark hair and tanned skin. She is commonly depicted armoured with a helm, a shield in one hand and scrolls of knowledge in the other.
Athena is also sometimes depicted as a giant owl.
