Poseidon, Lord of the Seas
  • Poseidon was powerful, decisive, competitive,
    and dignified.
  • It was very important to stay on his "good

    offense. He made a hobby out of taking revenge.
  • He spent eight years getting even with
    Odysseus for blinding his one-eyed son, Cyclops.
  • Before setting out to sea, ancient mariners
    would pray and make offerings to Poseidon, hoping
    for a safe and profitable journey.
