    Orpheus all the way. Get out of here with your feats of strength and cunning, I'm about to charm this smurfing rock with my poetry. That is some serious bad-assery.

    And then he goes and specifically does the thing that he wasn't supposed to do in order to get his girlfriend back from the dead

    Honestly, though, I love that story so friggin' much

    Aw cut him some slack. Brother just got excited and wanted to look back real quick. I mean, between him and the freaking lord of the Underworld I think I know who I would be first to blame about the whole thing going haywire.

    Poor Hades is just doing his job and then everyone says he's the devil or something when he's literally the nicest of his family.

    Perseus. Not either of The Clash of the Titans versions, but Ovids. He's just flying around on his winged sandals when the warring winds start blowing him everywhere and he eventually runs into Atlas. He asks to stay for a while away from the winds but Atlas is all nooooo you'll steal my treasures, so Perseus pulls out Medusa's head and turns him into a mountain.

    Typical Greek heroes are a total bag of douche nozzles. Name me one who wasn't a creep?

    Though at least Patroclus died for his love, even if Achiles was a jerk face.
