Poseidon (Neptune)
Poseidon (Neptune)
Poseidon, god of the sea, has some anger management issues. Sometimes he is super placid and calm, but other times he is about as angry and vengeful as it gets. We suppose this personality makes a lot of sense for the god of the ocean; sometimes its waters are calm, and other times they send waves crashing. If you make Poseidon mad, he won’t hesitate to send storms, floods, and earthquakes out to get you. Like his brother Zeus, Poseidon is a famous womanizer. He is married to the sea goddess, Amphitrite, but that doesn't stop him from sleeping with everybody in sight.
