HADES (Clash of the Gods) 1/4

Hades (Άδης or Ἀΐδας; from Greek ᾍδης, Hadēs, originally Ἅιδης, Haidēs or Άΐδης, Aidēs, meaning "the unseen"]) refers both to the ancient Greek underworld, the abode of Hades, and to the god of the underworld. Hades in Homer referred just to the god; the genitive ᾍδου, Haidou, was an elision to denote locality: "[the house/dominion] of Hades". Eventually, the nominative, too, came to designate the abode of the dead.

In Greek mythology, Hades is the oldest male child of Kronus and Rhea. According to myth, he and his brothers Zeus and Poseidon defeated the Titans and claimed rulership over the universe ruling the underworld, air, and sea, respectively; the solid earth, long the province of Gaia, was available to all three concurrently. Because of his association with the underworld, Hades is often interpreted in modern times as the Grim Reaper, even though he was not.

By the Romans Hades was called Pluto, from his Greek epithet Πλούτων Ploutōn (πλοῦτος, wealth), meaning "Rich One". In Roman mythology, Hades/Pluto was called Dis Pater and Orcus. The corresponding Etruscan god was Aita. Symbols associated with him are the Helm of Darkness and the three-headed dog, Cerberus.

If Hades is the Angel of death, then what is Thanatos?

[SPARTANsenator7]

@ct3gct3g

Thanatos is death, Hades is the lord of all dead!

[XGrellSebastian]

@SPARTANsenator7 Thanatos is actually the personification of peaceful non violent death. Hades is the God of the Underworld and everything and body who presides there. That is the difference between the two.

[SPARTANsenator7]

@XGrellSebastian

Actually in Greek, thanatos means death, without mentioning if it's violent or not!

@TheBeerclaw

Righteous people also went in the Elysian fields!

[TheBeerclaw]

@spyder3309 Nope, only "Heroes" (mostly Demigods) were the ones granted access to the Elysian Fields, not "good people", regular jackoffs went to Hades regardless. The real dicks went to Tarterus though.
