Mental characteristics
Personal history
When the sun rose the day after the cataclysm, another deity had arrived to offer aid. Athena arrived on Brigham Young University's campus and began organizing a college under her direction. She then took another group and guided them to Utah Valley University to open another college. She also organized her church while at the university. Her initial aim was to educate the survivors on the new world they were to live in. She taught them about magic, how to use it, the presence of other deities, and other new forces that were now in play. Athena's main goal has always been knowledge and education, and even went back to BYU to focus her efforts on the college there.
Taboos
Athena refuses to associate with Demonic and Eldritch beings. They are dangerous entities that endanger everyone around them, and she will do everything she can to destroy them. Her opinion on the Fae is a little less antagonistic, but she does not trust them.
Athena's stance on the Revenant species is unknown at the moment, though many speculate it's because she is gathering as much knowledge as she can before she passes judgement.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Athena's goal, first and foremost, is to spread knowledge and educate the masses. She removed herself from UVU in order to keep her knowledge from being militarized. Knowledge is to be used as a tool, not a weapon.
Social
Contacts & Relations
Athena is on good terms with most of the other deities, having no real point of conflict with any of the others. The only god she truly despises is Set, and her hatred is a sight to behold.
