Chapter 1: The Prologue aka The Fall of Iron
Before time began there existed two separate and unique beings. The gods of this time were the beings known as Titans, and their offspring, the creatures they had created, were known as Olympians. Now these two races had a few racial differences. The Titans, the creators of the Olympians, were made of metal, synthetic alloys, and possessed strange powers n technologies. Oh and were the size of planets, though they could change their size at will, and thus they believed themselves superior to their creations the Olympians. Now as if a opposite of the Titans the Olympians were made of flesh, bone,sinew, and blood. But the Olympians were always dissatisfied with the balance of power and feeling oppressed they sought to balance the scales. Thus this resentment lead to the two strongest, wisest, and smartest Olympians , Zeus and Poseidon, to rebel against their gods and creators the Titans.
Thus it was through the hubris of the Olympians and the dismissiveness of the Titans that the "War of the Gods", as it would later be referred to, began. The Olympians knowing that their meager tech and inferior bodies would be unable to kill the Titans. So it was they found a Titan as greedy for power and as overlooked as the Olympians, or so he thought, for they knew a Titan such as this would be weak to Olympians persuasions so with time the Olympians found Prometheus. Prometheus, a lowly weapons stockroom tech, you see had accesses to the secure weapons vault of Cronus leader of the Titans. From him Prometheus stole the "Fire" weapons line and bestowed them to the Olympians to begin their rebellion. You see the "Fire" weapon's line was made to kill even other Titans unlike the other weapons the Titan's had produced. But for his betrayal Zeus and Poseidon rewarded Prometheus by strapping him to the very torture devices the Titan's had used on rebellious Olympians and so the torment of Prometheus began.
So with the "Fire" series weapons in hand the Olympians marched upon the very fortress of the 13 leaders of the Titan's. Upon the Titan ship Othrys Zeus and Poseidon made war upon the ship to claim it for the Olympians. The battle raged for days with uncounted deaths on both the sides of the battle. But, it was during one of these assaults that the Olympians made a breach in the ships internal defenses and the lines of Titan warriors. Taking advantage of this gap the Olympians made a bold assault upon the command center of the ship. When Poseidon and Zeus reached the Control center they reaped a mighty vengeance upon the Titans using the Titans own weapons to dismember kill and torture their gods and creators. It was during this last fight that one Titan had escaped into the vacuum of space, but Zeus and Poseidon knew it would not be long before they would have full control of the ship and then....they would hunt down the rogue and slay him.
Chapter 2: The Hunt for Death
Time passed and the Olympians finally gained control of the Othrys and using this technology and the power of the ship they began the hunt for the last Titan...The master of death. You see the last Titan, the escapee, was the one known as Hades and Hades was the keeper of the secrets that the Titans held. Oh, did i forget to mention he was also one of their greatest inventors and warriors? Sorry my bad! At least you know now. So with Hades missing and free to do as he pleased, the Olympians feared that one day he would return and kill them all. Probably a justified fear considering Hades was one grudge holding motherfucker but ... you never know he may have actually left them alone. Because, unlike the other Titans Hades didn't care about the Olympians or the Titans all he cared for was his research. MOVING ON NOW!
So with control of Othrys , The Olympians later renamed it Olympus, the Olympians began their hunt of the last Titan chasing him to a deep, dark, dead and forbidden sector of space. Then when they had him cornered the Titan changed taking on the size of a planet. With his new size Hades was more then a match for the Othrys and an epic space battle ensued and much devastation was wrought upon that sector of space. Hades despite being outmatched fought ferociously attacking and damaging the Othrys to the point where they Olympians knew that the cost of continuing the fight would result in the destruction of themselves and their prize. So they retreated back to their known galaxy leaving the Titan Hades to sit in the darkness of that now forgotten sector of space to waste away alone. But what the Olympians did not know is that they had sufficiently damaged Hades enough to the point where the Titan had to shut himself down and wait for a worthy successor to come along and take up his mantle because his time was over the great Titan Hades was dead...Well half dead ... you will see.
As time passed the Titans grew to become forgotten, and The Olympians having retreated back to the planet known as Gaia grew to view themselves as the most superior beings alive and as such imitated the titans and created the human race. Thus repeating the cycle of the titans eventually causing their own self destruction. And thus the Titans were forgotten that was until at least I came across a reference to them with my best friend in a long forgotten corner in a long since forgotten temple on the planet mars.

Chapter 3: My Story!
It was in this chamber we, me and my so called best friend, found the story detailing the fall of the Titans. But, we also found the location of the last Titan the one they feared would return bringing doom upon the world. So it was that my best friend and I being young, stupid, and reckless decided we would take the journey and be brand new discoverers of an ancient secret. We were after all we were tomb raiders and archeologists and such a discovery would no doubt net them tons of cash. And maybe net us a sweet movie deal? Lilith Saint Crow and the Raiders of the dead Titan anyone? You know where I am at movie producers call me. ;)
So, we chartered a ship and set our course through the vast endless void of space towards the remains of the last titan. When we got to the place and landed upon the planet in our drop ship we realized that the place we had landed upon was not a planet at all but instead the corpse of the Titan itself. We should have left then, but we were greedy and wanted to explore this corpse and plunder all its secrets and riches. So we found a pathway deep into the heart of the dead planet till we reached a circular room, the core of the Titan, and it was there that we found it. A massive orb of gold, now the rarest of precious metal's in the whole galaxy, but it seems my best friend, the bitch, had decided to not split the loot. Thus a fight began and during this fight shocked by the betrayal well ...no easy way to put this but I lost. But, not only had I lost...I LOST MY DAMN EYE! AND, WAS IMPALED WITH A SPEAR LOOKING THING.
So what does one do when they are laying dying in an extremely old ruin in the dead center of a dead Titan light years away from help bleeding out from the loss of a eye and being impaled, by your now ex best friend (The bitch thought she could just run me through and run away with the loot) with a seven foot long spear? The answer is simple. YOU LAY THERE AND DIE! But, this death was not the end of me. It was in fact the beginning of my brand new life.
So as i lay there bleeding out dying, or so I thought, in the heart of this long dead Titan I wondered what impact my life had on others...But, luckily for me, as I lay there in the darkness slipping into the ice cold void of death I heard a voice speak to me. It told me that what i was experiencing death, but it was a death I could avoid. So wanting to live on I choose to continue my existence and strove to held onto life. So the Titan found me worthy and thus it was that in the heart of this dying Titan I was remade. Hades changed my flesh, bone, and sinew into a thing more like his own body. I became a being of Metal and Synthetics yet I still maintained my human exterior and looks I could blend in among them where even the Titan's could not. I was stronger than anything else I knew of and on top of all that my natural senses and reflexes had been amplified to beyond the imagination of mere mortals. Even my brain remade streamlined and perfected. Before where I could not do complex problems or follow twisted thought patterns. I now could with the greatest of ease. All these adaptations were only the beginning, of course, but I was now reborn and god help the universe I was going to take my new life and live it to the fullest
