ATHENA: goddess of wisdom and war
— Greek mythologyAthena was Zeus's favourite child and sprung full grown in armour from his forehead. She was therefore seen as a goddess of wisdom, as she had drawn her wisdom from the head of god.
Athena was fierce and brave in battles. She was known to turn killings into trophy as a memory of her battles. Athena was also known for helping heroes and her ability to invent useful items that could be used in battles.
She helped Hercules in his twelve labours, but also Perseus, with a bronze polish shield that he could use as a mirror against Medusa.

Athena, the fierce warrior goddess of Ancient Greece, was a force to be reckoned with. She was the embodiment of wisdom, bravery, and cunning.
With her spear in hand and her shield emblazoned with the owl, the symbol of wisdom, she marched fearlessly into battle.
She was the protector of Athens, her namesake, her city, in which stood the grand Parthenon where her power and glory were celebrated.
Athena inspired fear in her enemies and awe in her followers, who saw her as a symbol of power, bravery and unwavering determination.
In a world filled with gods and monsters, Athena stood as tall as one of the greatest of them all.
