A/N: Skia Tectum is my own little creation. When I read in TLO that Hades' children were left out of the ancient myths I couldn't help but think: this is how I think it should've happened. So I slowly developed Skia. Basically he was one of the greatest heroes on par with Heracles and Theseus. And since his father didn't have an heir he was rewarded with godhood and became the god of shadows, darkness, souls, and the underworld's monstrous denizens. Ever since he has mostly been tracking down the more dangerous escaped souls, keeping monsters from completely pouring out of the underworld, and helping the occasional hero. But he would inherently be a threat to both the great stirring and the souls escaping through the doors of death: and thus a big target. So when his dad got the sword of Hades; the staff was reforged and turned into a sword for him giving him the power to defend himself from things like giants and titans. (Though he could already take on their weakened forms depending on the giant/Titan) And that is a general summary of his past with some spoilers shhh.
Any ways he's 6 foot 4 has huge black bat wings, black hair and eyes and a badass Stygian iron long sword.
Skia Tectum sat alone the top of his father's palace brooding. Alecto saw him briefly then blanched and turned the other way when she saw his mood. "A new Titan War was brewing", Skia thought. "He had already gotten offers from Kronos of course. Take over his father's realm, gain unbelievable power, blah blah blah. He wasn't stupid though, a demigod born god like him would never have power under Kronos' rule. But still, escape Hades' shadow until the prophecy was completed and rid the world of Zeus? Tempting. I honored my father of course but I hate the ancient laws and dad's rule not to mess with and or help heroes to much. Zeus however I would happily leave in Tartarus to rot for eternity. Maybe a visit to the surface would clear my head." Skia Tectum pondered. He took off immediately.
He flew just high enough to not be seen. He briefly checked all the illegal exits and entrances from the underworld and was surprised to see a small demigod child exit from the labyrinth and head towards the judgement tent. He would have to ask Father about this...
A/N: this is my first fanfic so please review and tell me what I'm doing wrong and/or tell me what I'm doing right. The first few chapters are going to be either in mythical times or are going to be half flashback and half plot. I haven't decided yet.
