🌊 Poseidon is the Greek god of the sea, earthquakes, storms and horses. Protector of the waters and helper of sailors, he was also called the god of fertility.

💦History:
 Poseidon is the son of Kronos (god of time) and Reia (goddess of fertility) and has five siblings: Zeus, Demeter, Hestia, Hera and Hades. Kronos used to eat his own children as soon as they were born, but his mother, Rhea, managed to protect both Poseidon and Zeus by pretending to have given birth to a horse.
 The brothers Poseidon, Hades and Zeus teamed up to defeat the Titans and, after winning the battle, they divided the world into three parts so they could reign.
While Zeus chose to be responsible for the heavens and Hades for the underworld, Poseidon wanted to be in charge of the waters. Poseidon went to live at the bottom of the sea, in a golden palace.
  Poseidon was married to Amphitrite. When they met Poseidon fell in love with her, but Amphitrite refused him and Poseidon forced her to marry him, however, she, not to marry, hid in the depths of the ocean, only her mother knew where she was. But over time Amphitrite changed her mind and went after Poseidon who she married and became the queen of the ocean. With her he had a son named Triton who terrified the sailors with an amazing noise he made when he blew the conch, an instrument, but also with him he made wonderful sounds. However, in his life Poseidon had many other loves and outside of his marriage he had more children who became well known for their cruelty, the two best known were the Cyclops and the giant Orion. Poseidon competed with Athena, the goddess of wisdom, to be the deity of the city now known as Athens, but Athena won the competition and the city became known with her name.💙 Physical Appearance:
