Helios Siddharth Nair

 “HELIOS (or Helius) was the Titan god of the sun. He was also the guardian of oaths and the god of gift of sight” (Helios).  He is commonly associated with the chariot, horses, and whip that is used by him to cross the sky to brighten the sky. God or Monster?

 Helios is the son of the Titans Hyperion and Theia.  His siblings are Eos (Dawn) and Selene (Moon), symbolizing the daily cycle of night and day.  In the Titan-God War Helios sided with the gods and as a result wasn’t punished when the Titans lost the war. Origin Story

 Helios is mostly known for the Tale of Phaëton, in which his son, Phaëton, attempts to lead his father’s horses on their daily route across the sky but is too weak. As a result many countries and people burn and freeze to death as he attempts to control them, eventually, he is killed by Zeus to save the world from total destruction. Famous Stories

 On Helios’ personal island, where he keeps his herds of cattle, Odysseus and his men landed. When food supplies ran out, despite constant warning, they brutally slaughtered the cattle for food. As a result Helios complains to Zeus who as retribution kills all the men except Odysseus. Connection to Odysseus
