Hades
Lord of the Underworld
Lord Hades (a.k.a. Pluto)
Hades, Sometimes referred to as "Pluto", Is the Olympian god of the underworld. Ruling over the realm of the same name, He has been in charge of maintaining the realm for over 10,000 years.
Born in The Abyss as a part of the first batch of gods, Ahriman soon told Hades that he, Zeus and Poseidon were to be family, Brothers. He accepted this, But over the years the relationship between them soured rapidly. Few hundred years later, He was also told that he would be the sole inheritor for one of the five hells, A decision that he still resents to this day. In modern day, Hades actively hates his brothers, Preferring to stay in the underworld rather than speak with them. The only time he goes to Olympus is to participate in the Olympian Reunion.
The only thing he doesn't regret is meeting his wife, Persephone. She is the only reason Hades has any joy in existence anymore. He visits her often, Whenever there is free time.
He often sits, Contemplating his life. And while he may never be able to have a life outside of his realm, He feels content knowing that his wife can. He has a purpose, And he can live with it, For now.
