Synopsis
[edit]Cronus, the titan of time who was imprisoned in Tartarus for thousands of years after being defeated by his son Zeus, escapes when the planets align on New Year's Eve. An ancient prophecy predicts that seven teenage heroes, Jay, Atlanta, Herry, Archie, Theresa, Odie, and Neil, who are the descendants of ancient Greek heroes, will be the ones to defeat Cronus for good. After being found, they are brought to Olympus High School in New Olympia, where they train become strong enough to face him while fighting against monsters he sends to attack them.[4]
Characters
[edit]Main
[edit]- Jay (voiced by Kirby Morrow) – "The Leader", a sixteen-year-old boy who is the descendant of Jason of the Argonauts and the first of the teenagers to be found. The leader of the group, he wields a xiphos with a retractable blade and takes his role as a hero seriously, possessing a strong sense of responsibility and work ethic. He is of Greek heritage on his mother's side and grew up with stories of classical mythology, making him more knowledgeable on the subject than the other heroes, and enjoys sailing. Though he has feelings for Theresa, they do not become a couple until they share a kiss in the series finale.[5] His mentor is Hera.
- Atlanta (voiced by Meghan Black in season 1, Sarah Edmondson in season 2) – "The Hunter", a fifteen-year-old girl who is the descendant of Artemis, who is also her mentor, and the second of the teenagers to be found. Born and raised in the Northwest Territories, she has a scar on her right shoulder from an incident with a puma and has enhanced reflexes and tracking abilities. She has a passion for weapons, primarily wielding jaw-trap steel bolas or a crossbow gauntlet, though enjoys hunting with traditional weapons such as a bow and arrow. Though she can be short-tempered and impulsive, she is studious and interested in environmental issues, being a volunteer for the Green Alliance. She is also a player on Olympus High's field hockey team, along with Theresa. Atlanta has no interest in dating, but had a crush on Phil and develops feelings for Archie. While initially reluctant to change their relationship beyond that of close friends, she eventually decides that she cares for him as much as he cares for her, and they become a couple.
- Herry (voiced by Ty Olsson) – "The Brawn", a sixteen-year-old farm boy who is the descendant of Hercules, who is also his mentor, and the third of the first three teenagers to be found. He has superhuman strength and often does not wield a weapon, preferring to use brute force. Though laid-back and easy-going, he has a short temper, which has caused him to get into trouble. He is fond of his grandmother, "Granny", who appears to have raised him and is seemingly the only parental figure that knows of the heroes, also knowing of Zeus. Though his teammates sometimes belittle his intelligence, he is shown to be smart, especially at coming up with solutions. Herry drives a pickup truck given to him by his grandmother, which Hephaestus modified and equipped to be the group's mode of transport.
- Archie (voiced by Sam Vincent) – "The Warrior", a fifteen-year-old boy who is the descendant of Achilles and the fourth teen brought to Olympus High. He wields the "Hephaestus Whip," a cross between a chain whip and a rope dart, which Hephaestus later upgrades to the "Adamantine Whip". He wears a brace covering his right shin and part of his right foot due to an unspecified medical condition that affects his heel. According to Dionysus, Archie, like Achilles, is immune to disease and has never been sick, although he has a scar.[6] He is afraid of water and refuses to swim, a fear that Atlanta helps him overcome. In addition to his physical abilities, Archie is knowledgeable about Greek mythology from reading Greek poetry. He tends to be brash and self-centered, but is also withdrawn and cynical. His skepticism of the supernatural causes him to be initially hostile towards Theresa, dismissing her abilities as merely predictions, though they settle their differences. Though he had feelings for Atlanta since they first met, he is afraid to confess his feelings; when he does confess, she is initially afraid that their relationship will change, but reciprocates his feelings.[7] His mentor is Ares.
- Theresa (voiced by Kelly Sheridan) – "The Fighter", a sixteen-year-old girl who is the descendant of Theseus and the sixth teen to be discovered. She is the group's second-in-command and assumes the role of leader when Jay is incapacitated.[8] A black belt in taekwondo, she wields nunchucks and possesses a sixth sense, similar to clairvoyance or psychometry, and later gains telepathic and telekinetic powers. She comes from a wealthy family and her father owns cattle ranches across Canada. She is a talented lyre player, and, along with Atlanta, plays on Olympus High's field hockey team. After the gods push her too far, her powers to go out of control in the form of an evil spirit that drains the powers of most of the gods and Cronus, allowing the Chosen Ones to defeat him and fulfill the Oracle's prophecy. After draining Zeus, she declares that she and Jay are free, but is horrified to learn that Hera told Jay to kill her. Jay tries to convince her that the combined powers of the gods will destroy her, only for the Phantom to toss Jay aside, causing her to realize that she has gone too far. She then dies after being overwhelmed by his power, but Jay revives her with a kiss.[5] Her mentor is Persephone.
- Odie (voiced by Doron Bell Jr.) – "The Brains", a sixteen-year-old boy who is the descendant of Odysseus and the fifth teen to be discovered. He is usually considered the youngest of the group due to his small stature, but is among the oldest. Though he does not wield a weapon, he is intelligent and adept with technology, serving as the group's tactician and using a walkie-talkie and a laptop given to him by Hermes, his mentor. He later befriends Polyphemus, whom Odysseus had blinded during his Odyssey. He suffers from claustrophobia, which he can overcome with a specially designed device that places the location elsewhere in his mind. His mentor is Hermes.
- Neil (voiced by Ted Cole) – "The Good Looking", a sixteen-year-old boy who is the descendant of Narcissus and the seventh and final teen to be discovered. He is vain and arrogant and works as a freelance model. Because of this, others initially doubt his status as a "hero". Neil considers himself to be cultured and an expert on fashion and becomes upset if his clothes get dirty. He is notorious for being late and is obsessed with horror films about vampires and werewolves. His luck helps him in combat and in winning games likes coin tosses and board games. Though he generally does not wield a weapon, when he does he can do so effectively. Despite his self-centered attitude, he cares for his friends and will help them when they need him most, even if it means putting aside his well-being. His mentor is Aphrodite.
- Cronus (voiced by David Kaye) – The main antagonist of the series, who combines traits of Cronus and Chronos. His sons Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades imprisoned him in Tartarus following the Titanomachy, but he escapes after the planets align on New Year's Eve and seeks to exact revenge on Zeus and the Olympians and take over the world. He controls several giants and fights the heroes, who are prophesied to defeat him, by sending monsters to attack them, convincing his allies to take out their anger on them, and forming alliances with the foes of the original heroes. As one of the most powerful immortals in existence and the god of time, Cronus has several powers, including regeneration, creating portals, shapeshifting, and duplicating himself, as well as reversing and accelerating time, though these powers weaken with overuse. He wields kama-like scythes that materialize out of thin air.

Locations
[edit]- Aeolia – The floating island of Aeolus, Keeper of the Winds. It rests on the back of a giant sea turtle and has a temple at the top where Aeolus can command the four winds.
- Atlantis – An ancient civilization and continent that the Greek gods punished by sinking into the sea using the Antikythera Device after the Atlantean army's failed invasion on ancient Athens. A giant statue of Poseidon was located in the main temple, but is destroyed when Jay and Theresa set off explosives to destroy the Device.
- Crete – A volcanic island that is the home of Talos and Hephaestus' original workshop.
- The Garden of the Hesperides – A sacred garden of Hera's where golden apples of immortality grow on trees. It was guarded by the Hesperides as well as the dragon Ladon.
- Greece - The country of origin for the original Titans.
- Lerna – A region of ancient Greece with swampy springs. It is also the home to the Hydra, the many-headed water-serpent.
- Mount Caucasus – The Russian mountain that Zeus chained Prometheus to as punishment for stealing fire from the gods. In the modern day, the mountain is the location for the Temple of Prometheus, where a fire can be lit to summon the eagle which ate Prometheus' liver. After Cronus and his giants capture Herry's grandmother as a hostage, the heroes travel to the mountains to save her.
- Nemea – A town in classical Greece home to the Nemean Lion, whose defeat was the first of Hercules' Twelve Labours.
- New Olympia – The city the heroes are summoned to, which the Greek gods moved to from Mount Olympus to stay safe from Cronus and train and protect the heroes. It is located in Canada.[22]
- The Brownstone – A complex of buildings that serves as the heroes' dormitory and is protected from Cronus and his minions. Each of the seven heroes has their own room that reflects their personalities.[23] Jay's room has a sailing theme and references the Golden Fleece that his ancestor retrieved, Atlanta's room expresses her interest in sports and the environment, Theresa's room shows her spiritual interest, Odie's room has technological components and computers, and Neil's room has mirrors and things related to his modeling career. As seen in director Brad Goodchild's blog, Herry's room is centered around his interest in bodybuilding while Archie's room has a Japanese theme, fitting with his love of poetry.
- Olympus High School – New Olympia's high school, which the seven heroes attend along with the rest of the city's youth and cannot be detected by Cronus due to being under the protection of the gods. The Greek gods reside in a secret part of the school that can be accessed through the janitor's closet with medallion keys that each of the heroes possess; this part of the school contains training facilities, weapon stores, secret portals, and Hephaestus' workshop. The school also has statues, including ones of Zeus armed with thunderbolts and Asclepius with his Asclepian rod. The school was invulnerable to the timeline change Cronus made by winning the Titanomachy.
- Ogygia – Calypso's tropical island paradise, where Odysseus was stranded and kept for seven years during his journey home.
- The Underworld – The ancient Greek realm of the dead, which Hades and his wife Persephone rule over. Cerberus guards its gates, Minos judges the entering souls, and Charon ferries the dead across the river. Though one must be dead in order to enter, the heroes circumvent this rule by entering through the picture of the seasons in Persephone's solarium.
- Tartarus - The deepest area of the Greek underworld, which is guarded by Campe. Cronus was imprisoned in Tartarus after Zeus defeated him and it is where wicked souls are condemned.
- Elysium - A paradise for heroes and souls who did good. It is the one place in the underworld that is not dark and gloomy, but idyllic and peaceful instead.
- Plains of Asphodel – Plains where asphodel grow. There is a field of aconite growing in the field, but anyone who steps off the path to enter turns to stone. Odie circumvents this by putting the path's dirt into his shoe, making it so he is technically on the path.
