Helios - God of the Sun
Helios is the God of the Sun. They are a positive and energetic deity, constantly in motion.
They are usually found solitarily flying their chariot led by flaming horses across the sky.
Helios is the Twin of the Goddess Selene, their polar opposite. While the twins used to close they no longer have much of a relationship.
Helios is commonly worshipped by travellers, farmers and by specific cults.
Helios is commonly depicted as a young masculine figure, beardless with tanned skin and curly strawberry blond hair. They are sometimes depicted as feminine, with a radiant corona or with beautiful orange wings.
