Cronos - Father of Zeus and other Olympians. A fearsome and ruthless Titan, son to Gaia, who had killed his own father (Ouranos) and progressed to develop a prediliction for attempted infanticide. His reign, although the one in which the human race was created, is typified as a period of anarchy predating all 'modern' institutions and behaviour. Only his sixth child, Zeus, escaped being eaten due to the quick-wittedness (and despair) of Kronos' wife Rea. His actions in effect brought about the rise of the new Olympian centred religion with a battle of the gods that saw his children victorious.
