Poseidon
Poseidon was god of the sea, ocean, earthquakes and horses (both salt and fresh water). Poseidon has deep blue eyes and steaming green hair. Poseidon is one of the gods of Mount Olympus. Poseidon spends most of his time in his watery domain. He is brother of Zeus and Hades. Poseidon was second to Zeus in power amongst the gods. Although there were various rivers, they would have been under his sway but, Nereus, the old man of the sea, wasn't really considered on a par with Poseidon. Poseidon had married Nereus's daughter, the sea-nymph Amphitrite. Poseidon had many children their names are Theseus, Triton, Polyphemus, Belus, Agenor, Neleus and Atlas. Poseidon had many wives but his mane wife is Amphitrite. Amphitrite wasn’t jealous of the other wives. Poseidon was mostly worshipped by seamen and sailors, also would make the water safe so they could sail safely.
Demeter asked Poseidon to make the most beautiful animal that the world had ever seen, so in effort to impress her, Poseidon created the first horse. Poseidon’s weapon was a 3 speared trident, which he could make the earth shake which is an earthquake.
Poseidon’s home temple is in Sounion Athens and around the coast of Greece.
