I feel like I’ve seen very few people make this connection which annoys me. But there are statues at a certain island(if you know you know) of someone wielding a bident(a bident being like a trident but with 2 prongs instead of 3). These statues are almost certainly depicting Hades.

biden
By the way, this little rant was sparked by me reading the wiki page for said island, realizing that the wiki didn’t mention Hades fucking once, and then reading the comment section and seeing someone theorize that the statues were depicting Calvus. I then made a fandom account to tell that commenter what Hades’s signature weapon is and add this info to the trivia section of the page. After making the account, I realized I had no idea how to reply to comments or edit wiki articles.
Please kids, read Percy Jackson, it’s both really funny and really educational. It doesn’t tell you everything about Greek mythology, but it’s a great way to be introduced to it.
you could ask stocksounds, they edit the wiki i think
how do people think it’s CALVUS
I mean I can understand not knowing it’s hades (remember, the weapons go spear-zeus, bident-hades, trident-poseidon), cause like not everyone knows it, but thinking it’s CALVUS is just absurd. He’s not THAT old, and he has some weird quadent thing that he uses as a polearm, not a bident
lotta smart people on the wiki it seems
calvus?!??!?!
Speaking of people being stupid, I somehow never realized that each one of the big 3 of Greek gods wields a long pointed thing, with varying amounts of spikes. Thanks for bringing my attention to that.
does that make me a god if I wield a fork
too many prongs
pretty much the first time that hades has been acknowledged which is really interesting since it may be the first clue to the status of the chthonic gods. i know about the thing with him being the twist villain of arcane adventures, but that sucked ass and i would hope that it’s since been retconned
i’ve had the idea that the chthonic gods are still around, having laid low and remained unknown to the humans even during the war of the humans against the olympians. how are people still dying if thanatos isn’t around, for one
