Hector's Clique: Captains of the Football Team (Jocks)
Hector was the number one player for Troy during the Trojan War, and he was definitely a sight to behold on the battlefield. Tons of Greeks fell to him, and his skills got him a draw in one on one battle with the massive Ajax. But even though he had the home field advantage, Troy's top player was eventually taken down by the mighty Achilles.
Achilles
If the Greek army had played football in their off time, Achilles would have been first-pick for everybody's team. He is the buffest, hottest, most skilled dude around. Hate him or love him—you can't deny that that Achilles was the jockiest jock of the Trojan War.
Ajax
If Ajax were still stomping around the earth today, you'd better believe every NFL team would be trying to recruit him. This guy is massive, strong, and not to be trifled with. Ajax might have been the second best warrior of the Greeks at Troy, but we're pretty sure he could wreak major havoc on a modern day football field.
Agamemnon
Agamemnon was kind of like a quarterback mixed with a head coach for the Greek army during the Trojan War. He was the dude that made up the strategies and drafted the players, but he also didn't mind getting into the battle, calling the plays, and doing a little damage with his own two hands.
Aeneas
Aeneas is not to be messed with on the battlefield, and we're guessing he could totally regulate on the football field, too. Sure, he's not totally popular with some of the big Greek jocks like Heracles and Achilles—they're still holding a grudge because he's Trojan and his descendants founded Rome. But to all the Trojan and Roman fans out there, Aeneas is the jock of jocks.
Heracles
Heracles is massively strong, and his list of amazing feats is pretty much endless. And this guy did so much awesome stuff while he was alive that he became a god after he died.
Thor
God of thunder and the son of Odin, Thor is a top dog to the ancient Norse people. Like Heracles, this guy is freakishly strong. The cults of these two jocks actually got totally mixed up over the years, and Heracles' club pendants became kind of interchangeable with the hammer pennants of Thor. Hmm, maybe their marketing teams should've worked a little harder on brand recognition.
Gilgamesh
Gilgamesh is the awesome Sumerian/Babylonian king of Uruk. He is the star of The Epic of Gilgamesh, a poem about his adventures and his quest for immortality and eternal life. Just like Aeneas, Heracles, and Thor, Gilgamesh gets into lots of trouble and defeats some pretty gross monsters.
King Arthur
King Arthur is a noble warrior and star of some very famous legends. Does the phrase "the knights of the round table" or the name Guinevere ring any bells? Well, King Arthur is basically the first knight in shining armor, and Guinevere is his ladylove who betrays him by falling in love with Sir Lancelot.
Cuchullain
Cuchullain is a rad hero from Celtic legends. He has a trusty, deadly spear that slaughters anything that comes in its path. Legend has it that Cuchullain was offered immortality, but he turned it down (how noble!). In battle, he is often described as being monster-like because he gets so worked up.
Superman
That's right, you heard us. Superman also belongs in this clique of jocks. He's an important American legend who has plenty of adventures and soars above any obstacles that come his way.
