Do you have any favorite mythologies or specific mythological figures?

Here's a few favorites:

There's like so many I couldn't decide.

[b]Psychopomps[/b].... creatures that escort souls to the underworld. I like underworld myths a lot and can have many variations depending on culture.

[b]Prometheus[/b]: In a way the story sounds awfully like a man facing down a tyrant but that's just my take. I think in a way Prometheus is a much better God than all because he risked eternal punishment to give us fire.

The metaphorical take from that is so righteous 🤗

[quote]Prometheus loved man more then the Olympians, who had banished most of his family to Tartarus. So when Zeus decreed that man must present a portion of each animal he scarified to the gods, Prometheus decided to trick Zeus. He created two piles, one with the bones wrapped in juicy fat, the other with the good meat hidden in the hide. He then bade Zeus to pick. Zeus picked the bones. Since he had given his word, Zeus had to accept this pile as his share for future sacrifices. In his anger over the trick, he took fire away from man. However, Prometheus lit a torch from the sun and brought it back again to man. Zeus was enraged that man again had fire. He decided to inflict a terrible punishment on both man and Prometheus.

[b]Bastet:[/b] Goddess of cats.. I like to think she is a protector of them since they face abuse at the hands of man and many cats are now extinct because of us. I don't mean to sound like a nerd but I secretly want an animal uprising.

[b]Ars Goetia: Prince Seere[/b].. demon of lost knowledge (can go revel "hidden" treasure..) in this case to me it's knowledge. I like that specifically because every religion likes to ruin vast libraries of knowledge (like the library of Alexandria which we'll never know what was in there and now modern day ones/statues/documents ruined by radical Islam.)

Prince Seere is sort of a rebellion metaphor for me to go seek what is lost.
