Origin[]
Neptune (known as Poseidon in Greek Mythology) was the god of the sea in Greco-Roman mythology. He was one of the Twelve Olympians, the brother of Zeus and Pluto of Hades. He was also the father to many sea nymphs and other creatures. His consort was Amphitrite.
He was responsible for sexually assaulting Medusa in the temple of Athena which led to the woman being transformed into a snake haired monster by the angry goddess and also the birth of their sons Pegasus and Chrysaor who emerged after their mother's beheading by Perseus.
