Olympian

An Olympian is called that because they are one of the most powerful gods/goddesses that there is. There are 12 gods and goddesses on this council and they each have a throne on Mt. Olympus. They each also have a home and a temple on Mt. Olympus but some of them do not live on Mt. Olympus. In the past the Titans were the 12 Olympians but the gods took over.
