Athena is the grey-eyed goddess of wisdom, just warfare, and craft, born fully armored from the head of Zeus. Patron of Athens, which she wins with the gift of the olive tree, she favors the cunning and the brave, guiding Odysseus, Perseus, and Heracles through their trials. A virgin goddess of strategy rather than slaughter, she embodies the disciplined intelligence that wins where brute force fails.
