Ouranos

The primordial god of the sky, and the former ruler of the cosmos. Father of the Titans, the Hecatoncheries and the Cyclopes.

= Myths = Created from Gaia, they both spawned the Titans, Hecatoncheries and Cyclopes. Ouranos told Gaia the Cyclopes and Hecatoncheries were ugly and pushed them far away from Gaia and him, in Tartarus where he would never have to see them again. Gaia later asked the Titans for help and only the youngest, Kronos agreed to kill Ouranos. When Gaia called Ouranos down in his physical form, Kronos sliced of Ouranos' genitals (private parts *yuck*) with a sycthe and castrated them. From Ouranos' blood came out Aphrodite from the foam, the Erinyes from the jagged rocks, the Meliae from the grassland, the Korybantes from the raindrops and some of the Gigantes from Tartarus. Kronos later castrated him to the sky, to never again cover Gaia. Ouranos later put a curse on him that his children will overthrow Kronos the way he overthrew Ouranos.His Roman form is Caelus

= Trivia =


 * You might be wondering if the sky was killed how come I look up and still see the sky? Well my theory is that Ouranos physical form was killed but his spiritual form still remained. However the sky still needed support and thus the Titans of the four directions; Koios, Krios, Hyperion and Iapeteus' presence were needed to hold the sky up. However when these 4 were sentenced to Tartarus by the Gods for siding with Kronos, Iapeteus' son, Atlas was punished to hold up the sky forever. However, Perseus later took pity on him and turned him into a mountain range named Mt. Atlas with the head of Gorgon Medusa.Ouranos.jpg
