## Biography

### Kronos: Creation

Gaia and Ouranos were Primordial Daimons created when Earth was freshly created. The pair became lovers and when they were not enjoying one another, they created wonders on the primordial Earth, shaping mountains and rivers. They helped populate the planet with various basic lifeforms, and built a palace of magic on Mount Othrys as their home in which to spend more intimate time with one another. To oversee their slice of this precious world, Gaia and Ouranos chose to create great beings of their own design to rule over this planet. These were the Titans.

### Kronos: Rise of the Titans

Kronos was considered to be the greatest among the Titanic creations (or at least the most feared) and so the Primordials ordained him the leader of his siblings, making the others swear oaths upon his name.

As leader of the Titans, Kronos ruled all of Earth that a Titan could pace from mount Othrys in a day and made the mortals do what Gaia and Ouranos never did before them. They made the mortals worship and serve them. When Ouranos learned of this and objected to it, he chastised his Titan children. Ouranos' intervention did not had the effect desired. Not humbled, but rather enraged, Kronos conspired with his siblings to invade their creators' Haven by force.

The Titans caught their creators in a passionate embrace. At Kronos' command, his sisters grabbed Gaia while the brothers of Kronos took his fierce sickle and violently castrated his father before further blows were dealt.

When Ouranos was finally murdered, Kronos used a portion of Ouranos' essence to fashion an interdimensional prison from the remains of the primordial to imprison Gaia so she could be interrogated for instruction on the creation of Titans, the workings of her Haven, and other elevated disciplines that the Titans could now master with Ouranos' essence.

These rites were used by the Titans to exalt mortals, thereby creating surrogates of their own so they could retire to the Haven and other estates to enjoy the intoxicating effects of worship in solitude.

### Kronos: The Titanomachy

Over time, Kronos began to suspect that mortals were losing faith in him and were turning their worship to the Titans' exalted lieutenants instead. One by one, Kronos began imprisoning his own lieutenants in Tartarus out of paranoia (some justified, others not so much). But his own mate Rhea grew fearful of Kronos and decided to aid one of the gods, Zeus, allowing him to escape imprisonment.

Zeus would later return with a coalition of allies consisting of satyrs, nymphs, cyclops, giants, humans, Amazons, and gods, including his own progeny and his liberated siblings recently liberated from Kronos' prison.

### Kronos: Fall of the Titans

Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades managed to defeat Kronos as their allies defeated the other Titans. Kronos was then imprisoned in his own prison, in the deepest and darkest depth where the voice of Ouranos' shade could be heard cackling at his creation's new eternal misery.

### Key Affiliations

* **Titans of Othrys:** Kronos was the king of the Titans of myth, and held court on Mount Othrys in Ancient Greece. He ruled by fear, having usurped the throne from his creator Ouranos - only to have the same dealt to him later.

## Threat Assessment

### Assets

* **Titan Physiology:** Kronos was fashioned from the eldritch elements, chthonic ichor, and the remains of the dead prepared in necromantic rituals by the Primordials. At the time of his birth, Kronos had twelve exceeding potent souls and a multitude of lesser souls contained within his being. Kronos impaired six of those potent souls upon his adopted children when he exalted them, raising them from the ranks of mortality to godhood. Kronos would lose five more of his greater souls and nearly all of his lesser souls when he was defeated and imprisoned by the same gods he created.
	+ ***Invulnerability:*** Kronos is unharmed by conventional weaponry and is immune to pain, common physical ailments, and disease.
	+ ***Mythic Might:*** Kronos has truly Titanic strength.
	+ ***Supernatural Senses:*** As a supernatural being, Kronos can interact with the unseen forces at work, such as ghosts and astral beings.
	+ ***Tongues:*** Kronos instinctively understands any and all languages.
* **Residual Endowments:** Kronos took essence from his father's remains when he murdered him, splitting the spoils with his siblings and binding the eldritch power to their own souls to grant them great power. Though this essence was later taken from him, Kronos retains a small measure of that influence.
	+ ***God of Evil (Residual):*** Kronos can sense what dark desires are in the minds of others and can tempt them to act on those desires. He can also sear the minds of weak-willed mortals, filling them with terror.
	+ ***God of Fate (Residual):*** Kronos can read the auras of those in his gaze.
	+ ***God of Harvest (Residual):*** Kronos can accelerate maturation of plants.
	+ ***God of Justice (Residual):*** Kronos can sense if any being in his presence is feeling regret over wrongs for which they have not been punished.
	+ ***God of Seasons (Residual):*** Kronos can sense when weather is shifting.
	+ ***God of Time (Residual):*** Kronos retains the ability to mentally experience time in a different state than others around him. He can live through years in a blur or live in an eternity in a single second. He cannot move faster than normal. This is a mental state.
* **King of Titans:** Kronos may no longer have a throne of his own, but most of the Titans are still bound to his authority by ancient oaths.
* **Scythe of Saturn:** Kronos has a fierce adamant which is said capable to kill any and all.

### Flaws

* **Adamant:** Weapons made from Adamant inflict serious wounds on the gods which are not easily healed and can be easily fatal.
* **Ancient Laws:** As a cosmic being, Kronos is bound by arcane rules.
* **Cosmic Energy:** Kronos can be harmed by beings of similar might.
* **Magic:** Kronos is subject to magic and similar cosmic forces.
* **Weakened:** Kronos was forcibly stripped of much of his former power. While he is still powerful, but is in pain and his stamina is very impaired.
