Atlas (AT-luhs)

Greek Titan

Atlas

Atlas is the bearer of burdens, the eternal Titan whose punishment became a symbol of unyielding strength. Son of Iapetus and brother to Prometheus, Atlas sided with the old gods in the Titanomachy and paid dearly—condemned to hold up the sky at the edge of the world. But even as a prisoner of fate, Atlas became more than myth. He is the strength beneath obligation, the quiet dignity of bearing what must be borne.   While others sought thrones or vengeance, Atlas endured. His name passed into stars and maps, and even in silence, he became foundational. From his line came generations of celestial beings, including the Pleiades and Hyades—daughters who carry light across the heavens. He remains, still and steadfast, more monument than man, yet not without memory or pride.

Physical Description

General Physical Condition

Vast and muscular, Atlas is carved in stone and sinew—skin like granite, hair black as stormclouds. His eyes burn gold under the strain of endless weight, and his hands are calloused from cradling the sky.

Mental characteristics

Sexuality

Stoic and private; his capacity for intimacy is matched only by the weight of his silence. He loves with restraint, but never with absence.
