Can you name any god from any mythology who had shittier life than Hephasteus?

Can you name any god from any mythology who had shittier life than Hephasteus?
>his leg is fucked up (or he doesn't have it at all depending on the version)
>ugly
>works his ass off all the time
>but he has the hottest wife in the universe so it's not that bad right?
>she cheats on him with that faggot Ares
>no one fucking invites him to any parties (or was that Hades?)

he is that nerd kid from school everyone pretends to like when they want something from him but otherwise they mock the poor shitlord

and speaking of Hades he deserves an honorable mention as well
>got the shittiest job while Zeus can freely fuck women in disguise of a swan and do other perverted acts and Poseidon rules over seas
>does literally nothing wrong
>Greeks were scared of him and didn't build any pretty temples anyway
>his cunt wife hates him
>every other god (and mortal) goes ''HURR WHY U SO GRUMPY HADES XD?''
>people get butthurt at him for doing his job which is making sure the dead won't escape
>even his dog is villanized despite the fact that he is actually friendly to souls entering the realm he just goes batshit when they try to run away
>speaking of which Cerberus is propably the only being who isn't an asshole to him

Rick Riordan pls go

Kvasir had it even worse.

>Literally made from spit in a jar.
>Get killed by a bunch of greedy dwarves, and the Gods all decide it's a good thing because they can mix your blood with honey to make mead and use it to inspire poets.

>>Greeks were scared of him and didn't build any pretty temples anyway
really? that's just sad.

Why are gods always such cunts? I have no idea why people worshipped them hell even Odin had a title ''Oathbreaker''

the whole idea of a "just" god is a recent phenomenon

people back then knew their leaders were shitheads who did as they pleased and it reflects in the religion

Because the gods are representations of reality, and reality ain't always pretty.

The sea looks nice, until there's a storm, then the sea can be a real cunt, just like Neptune, or Nehalennia

>recent

Relatively speaking. The idea appears in the Republic.

That's because Plato was an idiot

Tyr.

>like most gods, destined to die
>still the god of war despite missing a hand
>forced to sacrifice his hand because the gods wanted to keep loki's wolf baby
>dies fighting another wolf

I honestly think Plato was just a sperglord. He got hung up on a bunch of little details and tried to construct a system of metaphysics that justified his hangups. You can see this in his "REEEEE GODS CAN'T BE UNJUST" and his attempt to justify the absolute existence of his ideas rather than accepting the possibility that the stuff he values may not actually have any substantial nature to it.

I mean... Loki got fucked by a horse.

>implying he didn't love every second of it.

Defiantly Hades.
Also, his mother in law is a major bitch.

Hades had a shittier deal.
>Get swindled by his brothers and ends up being the lord of the underworld
>Because of the nobody likes him or invites him to shit
>Just saying his name was bad luck
>Be lonely and try to get a wife but nobody talks to him
>Finally gets pissed off and abducts a wife to have, mother in law is a total bitch
>Even Zeus has to step up and say he's really not a bad guy
>Be forever demonized because Christians conflate him with the devil, despite being one of the more honorable of the Greek gods

At least he was rich as fuck

Alright well he still got bound by his son's entrails while a snake dripped venom on his face.

Don't forget when Hephastus caught Ares and Aphrodite fucking in a net the Pantheon all laughed at Hephestus getting cucked and forced him to release them.

Unexpected boner

defiantly is not the same word as definitely retard

The weirdest thing is that Ares is also like his best friend who he makes weapons for.

I thought we know almost nothing about Nehalennia?

>Chad Thundercock fucks his best friend's 10/10 wife

Why is that weird? It's high school drama.

Aphrodite is atleast an 11/10

Yahweh
>get to choose one people
>choose the Jews
>the Jews Jew him to death
>he Jews the Jews to death
No wonder Yahweh went over to the gentiles and the Jews went over to Baal/Moloch/Satan.

Auto correct screwed me over

his leg is fucked because in the olden days smiths got a lot of toxic fumes during smelting, like arsenic and such, and this caused nerve damage which manifested as walking problems, dragging one leg and so on, so it remained like a trademark

his wife is venus/aphrodite both because of astrologican connections but also as this symbolises some basic male female relation thing, with him being the personification of constructive, productive, creative, sublimated male power, but in a sense castrated trough this commitment to work and organised effort, so his wife is obviously the ultimate sex object slut, which again might have some correlation with earlier fertility cults, just like the leg thing

she cucks him with ares, again because of astrological connections, mars and venus having that dance thing going on every year, but also because the god of war is like the other stereotipical aspect of malenes, willfull destructivnes and organised violence, while at the same time the connection betveen the two is rather clear since hephestus makes the weapons

He was also pretty chill. Like that time he let Orpheus rescue his lover from death.

>why didn't the Aesir just slay their kin's child
>lol who cares, they're just a wolf
You disgust me, outlander

>dont be a sperg and just accept that youre wrong bro

yeah i wish every philosopher had this mindset

hephaistos also gets back at them through his ingenuity and craftsmanship, let's not forget

wasn't ares considered a looser

>Chad Thundercock

Ares was the cunt who shoots up the school. Not a chad.

He catches them in a net at one point.

See
He was humiliated by the other gods as a pathetic cuck and forced to release them.

Platon actually had a vision of Christ the eternal.

Christianity by the way is the root of all religion, all the polytheisms are simple degenerations of it, it starts with Christ, which becomes the Sun, which spreads to the elements, which then become personified.

>Aphrodite is atleast an 11/10
Incorrect, she was a bestial erotic harlot, i.e. not beautiful.

Porno addicted onanist virgin manchildren will not understand this.

>mfw my Dad wanted to name me Hephasteus at my birth because he was a cunt.
My sister saved me from a dire fate and forced a more normie name instead.

>he is that nerd kid from school everyone pretends to like when they want something from him but otherwise they mock the poor shitlord
Let's be honest, every single kid identified to Hephasteus at some point during their time at school because of that BS.

I refuse to believe your dad is your real dad, I refuse to believe someone that autistic has reproduced and is not incel.

a jewish god for the jews

Just because you made some shit up doesn't make it true if fucking Greeks said she was beautiful then she was.

Who is the Elliot Rodger of mythology?

Completely and utterly false statement.
Christianity stole almost every thing from Mesopotamian religions that existed for thousands of years before it.
The Old Testament was compiled by Jewish scholars who were captives in babalon, they needed a way to legitimize their cult and stole and rewrote Sumerian, Akkadian, Caananite, etc. etc. beliefs.
Open a history book not in Christian reading rooms library and this will become quickly apparent.

What? That's total shit. If anything Christianity stole a lot of its identity from Zoroastrianism.

>Tyr was the closest thing Fenrir had to a friend
>The known as honorable
>sacrifices honor for the safety of realm. No one else will.

Zoroastrianism still stems from Mesopotamian ideologies . Seeing as it started in Iran. Look into the Sumerians. Namely the Enuma Elish and you will have your mind blown

Well yea local traditions tend to build on themselves. They don't exist in a vacuum.

Then the previous poster who claimed every thing stems from Christianity and Christ is totally false since Jesus wasn't born until AD. You cannot just wipe away 4000+ years of history because of what your pastor has told you. That's my argument. I'm not arguing Christianity was influenced by Zorastrianism because it was.

I never argued otherwise m8 I think you're confused.

I'm referring to this guy Looks like you and I got caught in the mosh. Cheers

And then it was Orpheus's fault he fucked up even after Hades gave him a set of extremely specific rules

Fenrir has a pretty sad story

>Be spawn of Loki
>Grow up with the Aesir
>Shunned by Aesir
>Tyr was his only friend
>Aesir fear he will be their end
>tricked into trying on shackles
>breaks them all
>they make the dwarves build magical shackles
>refuse to put them on because magical
>get goaded until giving in
>agree only if his friend Tyr agrees lose his hand if it is a trap
>get shackled with no escape
>Tyr loses his hand and his honour
>Fenrir tricked by his only friend to be trapped forever.

Seems pretty self fulfilling.

>Fear X is going to kill you
>Treat X like shit
>X now wants to kill you

well many stories are pretty much told so people will not fall into the same ways.

Don't be a cunt like the gods is pretty much a common theme.

Because pagan gods were often personifications of nature effects, thus being very fickle and brutal. The idea of a God as a perfect moral ideal for humanity came later.

does Tolkien count?

>be yavanna
>qt forest spirit that Eru and all the other 8 valance love as their golden child but won't actually help her
>sings sad songs while her pretty forests are destroyed
>Eru gives her fucking ents and that's it "good luck protecting your forest they get pretty sleepy sometimes"
>just want to grow pretty forests and sing to the trees
>your autistic "weird uncle at the Christmas party" Melkor keeps burning all your forests and killing wildlife with his abominations all because he's a petty bitch that wants to play with his blocks alone and wants to destroy everyone else's blocks because only he gets to play with blocks blocks and nobody else
>just keep singing sad songs while the elves, humans, dwarves, and orcs burn down her forests for industry and Melkor's beasts corrupt her forests

yavanna is suffering

Arguably shittier life, but he takes it better.
Terminus, based Roman god of boundaries.

>Introduced by Romulus himself.
Largely disregarded as pagan animism but never goes away.

>God of peace and good-neighborliness.
Astroturfing about pagan blood sacrifices still circulate. Really only wanted a party with honey and wine between neighbors to seal the deal after a land purchase so no one gets bad feelings afterward. But all the other gods want blood for it to count so, slaughtered lambs it was.

>His domain and cannon basically are modern day property law in practice and lineage.
No one has ever heard of him. But damn if wine and parties aren't held to celebrate real estate deals between clients for 'good luck'.

>He had to share his temple with Jupiter when they tried to kick him off his primary altar in the Capital.
The auguries went poorly for Jupiter so they had to build around it and leave a hole in the ceiling above Terminus' altar cuz he likes the open air.

>Catholics remix the 'Saturn swallowed a stone instead of Zeus' story to make the stone Terminus.
Doesn't matter if it's true or not, Terminus is still placed in the 'needs to be saved', submissive role and only to sell Catholicism in early AD after Rome's collapse.

>Temple of Jupiter Optimus Maximus gets leveled and the statues destroyed or sold off for centuries leaving only rubble.
His altar stone is lodged into a wall in the Palazzo Caffarelli that stands there today

>Concedo Nulli

Cerberus always seemed like such a nice dog. Three times the licking and goofy dog face? Yes please.

Ull has it pretty shitty because he seemed pretty prominent in that many places are named after him but almost everything is lost about him.

>>his cunt wife hates him
Actually, their marriage seems to work well, mostly because Hades is a loyal husband, and the only time he got interested in some Nymph, Minte, Persephone changed her into a mint plant.

He does love Cerberus though, as he gave condition to Hercules that when he's borrowing him, the Cerberus had to be returned unhurt.

Ares was the bully that everyone feared but nobody (apart from Aphrodite) really liked.

The fuck is wrong with you? Hephaestus is a cool anme

Hephaestus was welcome as fuck among men. You have to consider that.

Prometheus.

Tried to rape Athena.
