I Really Need a BSG Icon
Mar. 28th, 2007 04:03 amOnce again, I can't sleep, and once again, I find myself hung up on those darn Lords of Kobol.
According to most lists I've found, these are considered the twelve major Olympian gods: Zeus, Hera, Athena, Apollo, Artemis, Aphrodite, Demeter, Dionysos, Hephaistos, Ares, Hermes, and Poseidon, with Hades being the most major deity not residing on Olympos. Since sea travel has not been shown to have any importance to the Colonials as a space-faring people, I am willing to consider cutting Poseidon in favor of Hades. Or perhaps Hades is the unnamed god of the Thirteenth Tribe, or the God of the Cylons, but I doubt either of these interpretations, as it leaves the Colonials without a death god.
Except for the fact that Aurora (allow me to say again, a very minor goddess) is apparently one of the Twelve Lords of Kobol. Oy, my brain.
( Cut for rambling meta and also spoilers )
And on a totally unrelated note, a line I know I will never hear on BSG, but that I would love to anyway, in light of the revelations of Crossroads, Part 2: ( Again, cut for spoilers )
For my next trick, I will attempt to make sense of Helo's career track over the course of season 3.5.
