Hermes’s epithet Argeïphontes (Ancient Greek: Ἀργειφόντης; Latin: Argicida), meaning “slayer of Argus”,[75][76] recalls the slaying of the hundred-eyed giant Argus Panoptes by the messenger god. Argus was watching over the heifer-nymph Io in the sanctuary of Queen Hera, herself in Argos. Hermes placed a charm on Argus’s eyes with the caduceus to cause the giant to sleep, after which he slew the giant with a harpe.[14]
Why no Artemis? I would think they would have an affinity for the hunt.
Even Apollo with his bow and arrows.
I dig Kratos instead of Aries. And as much I love Athena, the blunt force combat side of war seems more appropriate for these guys.
HOWEVER. If there is a female pilot, her call sign should be Athena and she should have Zeus on her plane, so whenever she gets out she’d be emerging as a fully formed warrior from his head.
Hermes was never violent.
That was before they broke into his house and killed his dog. Now he yeets Sidewinders.
Hermes the type of guy to gift you with insanity drown you with wine then ride your corpse like a surf board.
