Description
The Greek god of wine making, insanity, fertility, and wildlife. He was born like most gods in the Greek Pantheon, Zeus having an affair with a mortal woman Semele. Which Hera finds out and decides to take up a disguise, transforming into an old woman and talks to Semele who trusts her and confides her that she is with Zeus himself. So she told Semele to tell her lover if he is Zeus by showing his true form. Which when they do meet he does and immediately vaporized Semele but the baby was still alive.So he takes baby Dionysus and sews him into his leg so he can finish growing, then he was born.
Dionysus is unsafe on Olympus on account of Hera, so Zeus sends him away to be raised in secret.
He discovered how to make wine, but before he could spread his knowledge, Hera drives him Crazy and wanders for a while before Rhea helped him regain his sanity. Then he spread his knowledge of wine making across the world.
Dionysus was then caught by sailors who were possibly going to sell him to slavery, and Dionysus responds by transforming into a lion and turning the mast and oars into Snakes and filling the ship with Ivy, and the sound of flutes playing, causing the sailors to go crazy or scared, who then jump over board and turn into dolphins. He also gave king Midas his golden touch, which was not good. His cult was the celebration of intoxication and a lot of marginalized people such as women, slaves, and more because they can shake off societal norms and be free. He had some pretty intense women who killed Orpheus.
He doesn’t really like Yahweh because he caused the fall of the empire and also caused people to stop worshipping him and his pantheon.
I gave him horns to show his previous designs, and gave him a light strip on his nose because being drunk gives you a bit of red face.
