Zeus was the opper god, and the god of thunder and lightning. He became the opper god by fooling their father, the Titan Kronos, and freeing his brothers and sisters; Poseidon, Hades, Hera, Demeter and Hestia. He is Always seen with an eagle and the master bolt, which produces every lightning. He has done it with very much persons, immortal and mortal. This didn't always go well, and most of the times, Hera became angry. And of course, there were also a lot of 'accidents', like Hercules or Apollo and Artemis.
