Kronos

Kronos was the leader and last of the mighty Titans who fathered the first of the Olympians with his wife Rhea.
==Biography==
===Early Days===
During the reign of Uranus, Gaia constructed a sickle and ordered her children to use it against Ouranos, but they refused. Only Kronos was brave enough to take the weapon. When Uranus met with Gaia, Kronos ambushed his father and castrated him with the sickle; from the blood sprouted the Giants, Erinyes, and Meliae.
After defeating Uranus, Kronos and his sister-wife, Rhea, took the throne of the world as king and queen, respectively. This period of Kronos' rule was called the "Golden Age," as the people of the time had no need for laws or rules; everyone did the right thing, and evil was absent. However, when he learned from the Sisters of Fate that he was destined to be overcome by his own son, just as he had overthrown his father. As a result, although he sired the gods Demeter, Hera, Hades, Hestia, and Poseidon by Rhea, he swallowed them all as soon as they were born to prevent the prophecy from happening. When the sixth child, Zeus, was born, Rhea called upon an eagle to take the baby far away from the watchful eyes of Cronos. In the baby's place, Rhea wrapped a stone in cloth and offered it to Kronos, who foolishly believed it to be the baby and swallowed it whole.
===Great War===
The mighty Atlas was the leader of the Titans in their epic battle against the gods. Kronos had almost been defeated, but was saved by Atlas, who was defeated by both Hades and Poseidon. After Zeus created the Blade of Olympus, the Titans were banished and imprisoned in the pits of Tartarus to endure eternal suffering for all time, but Kronos would be granted another great fate in time.
Zeus punished his father, Kronos, by forcing him to wander the Desert of Lost Souls with Pandora's Temple chained to his back forever. The whirling sands may have one day ripped the very flesh from Kronos' bones, but he was given no sympathy. When the Titan Horn would be blown, Kronos would be called upon to allow countless warriors to endure the many dangers which lurked within the temple. Above all warriors, Kratos, the Ghost of Sparta, was responsible for completing the many feats within the temple and even retrieving Pandora's Box.
