B.
I was watching a show on television yesterday evening about the Olympians and the Titans. I just became a little bit curious to learn more.
I do not believe in them.
Answer
Immortals
Olympian deities

AÏÏοδίÏη (AphroditÄ) Aphrodite Goddess of love, lust, beauty, wife of Hephaestus. Ares is her lover. Eros is her son. Known as the most beautiful of the Greek goddesses. Her symbols are the scepter, myrtle, and dove.
AÏÏλλÏν (ApollÅ) Apollo God of music, medicine, health, prophecies, poetry, and archery. Also said to be the god of light and truth. Is associated with the sun. Also referred to as the most handsome of the gods. He is Artemis's twin brother, and son of Zeus. His symbols are the bow, lyre, and laurel.
ÎÏÎ·Ï (ArÄs) Ares God of war, murder and bloodshed. Brother to Athena, and is the son of Zeus. Has an affair with Aphrodite. His symbols are vultures, dogs, boars, and a spear.
ÎÏÏÎµÎ¼Î¹Ï (Artemis) Artemis Goddess of the hunt, wild things, and the moon. Protector of the dewy young. She became associated with the moon. Apollo is her twin brother. Artemis is a virgin goddess. Her symbols are the bow, dogs, and deer.
Îθηνά (AthÄna) Athena Goddess of wisdom, warfare, strategy, handicrafts and reason. Sister of Ares, and is the daughter of Zeus. Sprung from Zeus's head in full body armor. She is the wisest of the gods. Her symbols are the aegis, owl, and olive tree.

ÎιÏνÏÏÎ¿Ï (Dionysus) Dionysus God of wine, parties/festivals, madness and merriment. He represents not only the intoxicating power of wine, but also its social and beneficial influences. His symbols are the grape vine, ivy, and thyrsus.

He makes armor for the gods and other heroes like Achilles. Son of Hera and Zeus is his father in some accounts.
