What never stops being funny to me is this:

Hercules thanked him, and when he had taken the city and shot down Laomedon and his sons, except Podarces, he assigned Laomedon's daughter Hesione as a prize to Telamon [...] (Bibliotheke, 2.6.4)

And the Iliad:

ALSO the Iliad, however:

Very dead, those other sons of Laomedon. :)

[goethefaustworld]

I mean, he probably would have preferred his own podarces, methinks

rip Achilles you would've loved hightop sneakers

plotting various ways of telling patroclus he cannot reenter battle despite the plight of the danaans that he can't even get mad at me for

I HAVE SOME! MY TIME HAS COME!!!

I've told @dootznbootz some of these (copy pasted too) but I think some of y'all need to hear my appreciation for the Trojan family...

under read more because... yeah.

Priam has trauma over the first sacking of Troy. for all his worth, is stuck in the past. He will forever be the ten-year-old boy who saw his brothers die, the boy whose other younger brothers blame for the sacking, and the slave his favorite sister Hesione had to bargain her freedom with. That tragedy will play in his eyes forever and ever; when everyone moved on, he is still that same boy looking at the carnage.

Priam is the third youngest of Laomedon's kids (his other brothers are Thymoetes and Hicetaon) and he used to be called Podarces. He has TONS of older siblings but his favorite is his sister Hesione, who just loves to spoil him. When she got chained to a rock and about to be sacrificed to Apollo, he was so sad and kept begging his dad not to let her die, but his dad is kind of a jerk. Heracles was the one who rescued her but got mad when Laomedon wouldn't give him the horses he promised him. So... with Telamon, he sacked Troy. Hesione tried to hide Podarces and his younger brothers, but they were found. He is about to become enslaved by Telamon, but Hesione said she'll marry Telamon herself and buys Podarces out from slavery. In honor of his sister's sacrifice, Podarces changes his name to Priam, which meant 'to buy'

Hecuba is Priam's "favorite wife" 🤡 HONK HONK he likes her but like. "yeah you gave me kids girl, thanks for that" dw he starts realizing how badly he treated her when the war comes around. ten more years of living in bliss before everything comes crashing down.

ALL of Hecuba's kids have a few 'non-human' traits, due to her nymph blood. (In my AU Hecuba is the daughter of a river god, and she a nymph.) Most of them have an affinity for water, but they take over their mother's traits differently.

All of Hecuba's children were born beautiful, and extremely enchanting (but Aeneas defeats them in terms of physical appearance lmao), and also strong. She's also the reason why they seem to 'grow up so fast' e.g. most of her kids starting families young etc.

Hector has eldest daughter syndrome <3 while his sister Iliona was firstborn she wasn't... really around? She prepares for her marriage, does things considered to be a good princess, and she actually doesn't care about her siblings that much. She barely has a relationship with them outside of Hector

Helenus and Cassandra were Priam's favorite twins, always asking for fortunes and prophecies and making it a game. But in time, especially since Cassandra started to become 'insane,' he found them 'unnerving' to be around, of how they will say that Troy will be destroyed... he doesn't like being faced with this future.

Priam is a good king, but he was NOT a good warrior. after seeing his older brothers killed right in front of him, and his younger brothers blaming his inaction for their deaths, he had a great fear of war, battlefield, and blood. that's not a good look on a king, especially during that time. so he talks. he talks, and he relents, remaining passive, but also knows when to put his foot down. he KNOWS he needs to have a son soon, someone stronger, someone who will be much better than he ever will be. However, one son isn't enough. whe doesn't want to see his city destroyed because his children weren't enough to defend his walls, so he marries one wife. and another. then another. to the point that he only sees them as some sort of breeding stock

damn Priam needs to stop having kids. he cant btw he has trauma and wants to see his lineage last a long time <3333333

Aeneas was mostly raised by the Trojan court because his dad is mostly considered as an 'embarrassment' for passing off the idea that he was born from Aphrodite. which is incredibly funny because Aeneas DOES look a lot like what his mother symbolizes. however bc of the stigma around his birth and dad, he doesn't really talk much about him :((((((

Paris retains some form of accent thanks to being raised in Mt. Ida for a long time. he tries not to slip into it, but when he's angry he slips to the accent and gets lost in his ranting. or maybe when he's upset he does it.

Paris and Deiphobus have MAJOR beef. Dei is just mad he realized he wasn't the second in line to the throne when Paris showed up and kicked his ass lmao

Aeneas actually liked Creusa, she was like, his childhood sweetheart. had issues with physical touch when he realized he couldn't embrace her anymore during the sacking of troy, though.

Troilus is such a cutie patootie, basically the baby of the family. its obvious he isn't Priam's kid, but WHO CARES? he can make everyone's day brighten up just by existing. no wonder the trojan halls are bleak after his death.

the trojan family generation trauma continues on to -> the roman family generation trauma (thanks, aeneas/j)

Any head canons about the Trojan royal family? 👀

unfortunately i don't have much :'D the trojan royal family really intrigues so i do want to get a bit more into it (y'know. pre trojan war sibling stuff potential :0). If i do end up with some hcs i'll be sure to share em!

[honeyblockm]

Literally head empty Iliad fic only like! Hey man what is a good person does war make you a good person must you fight why must you fight aren't you tired how do you ask someone to be the last man to die for a lost cause how do you ask someone to be the first

[algumaideia]

After they were gone, Achilles would shake his head. “I don’t know how you remember them all. I swear they look the same to me.” I would laugh and point them out again. “That’s Sthenelus, iomedes’ charioteer. And that’s Podarces, whose brother was the first to die, remember?” “There are too many of them,” he said. “It’s simpler if they just remember me.”

Little brat.

Hmmm nope!!!

love the combat of war

[littlesparklight]

"[...]Hercules thanked him, and when he had taken the city and shot down Laomedon and his sons, except Podarces, he assigned Laomedon's daughter Hesione as a prize to Telamon [...]" (The Bibliotheke)

"The two sages, Ucalegon and Antenor, elders of the people, were seated by the Scaean gates, with Priam, Panthoos, Thymoetes, Lampos, Klytios, and Hiketaon of the race of Ares." (The Iliad, Book 3)

"[...] Laomedon begat Tithonos, Priam, Lampos, Klytios, and Hiketaon of the stock of Ares." (The Iliad, Book 20)

Priam: I lost my brothers many decades ago. :(

Lampos, Klytios, Hiketaon: STOP TELLING PEOPLE WE'RE DEAD!!!

Priam: Sometimes I can still hear their voices... :'(

[ender-chimera]

so just to be clear: 

protesilaus - first to die after stepping foot in troy in the trojan war (and perhaps something to note for sbi fans, his brother podarces joined the war in his place after his death) 

zephyros - god of the west wind 

harpocrates -  god of silence, secrets and confidentiality 

[dreamsurvivormultiplayer]

Techno has given me rights to theorize Syndicate lore based on one of my special interests POG so here’s code name analysis

Harpocrates - Egyptian/Greek god of silence, secrets, embodiment of hope and the sun ("child sun"), associated with roses.

Most likely Foolish - the aspect of “child sun” is probably an association of childhood = ignorance = “foolish”ness Only likely others would be Hannah (based on rose association) or Puffy (as she seemed to be interested in concepts like the Syndicate and has been corresponding with Techno).

Phil - Zephyrus

Greek god of the gentle west wind. Pretty self-explanatory. Bird Dad. In some versions of some myths involving him, Zephyrus was jealous of Apollo being with Hyacinth and so made Apollo accidentally kill Hyacinth with a discus, which could also fit with how c!Phil was forced to kill a loved one (in his case, his son).

Techno - Protesilaus

A hero in the Iliad, son of Iphiclus ("Lord of many sheep") and leader of the Phylaceans. He was the first to step ashore at Troy and the first to die in the war (”An oracle had prophesied that the first Greek to walk on the land after stepping off a ship in the Trojan War would be the first to die, and so, after killing four men, he was himself slain by Hector. After Protesilaus' death, his brother, Podarces, joined the war in his place.” - wikipedia). Either this somewhat alludes to Techno and Wilbur being “brothers forged in blood” and Techno sort of taking up this path of anarchy and fighting for “freedom” in Wilbur’s absence, or it just bodes very very poorly for Techno.

Ranboo - ???

I would guess likely options include:

Janus (Roman god of doorways, choices, etc. Iconography depicts him as literally having two faces. Ranboo is a Thomas Sanders fan, so if he is at all caught up in his Sanders Lore he definitely knows this one)

Lethe (River of memory/forgetfulness in the Underworld and also the name of the nymph of that river)

Morpheus (god of sleep and dreams)

Hypnos (God of sleep)

Mnemosyne (goddess of memory)

Oneiros (personified dreams)

Cassandra (seer who was cursed so no one would believe her prophecies)

Pythia (Oracle of Delphi)

Delphi (see former)

and Python (creature that guarded the oracle of Delphi)

the danaan troops are all lining up outside my tent to beg for me to return to Battle. And i dont give a shit.

[soulgathered-a]

 @caustixsoul​ asked : ‘ everyone says i used to be a hero, but i can still taste the blood in my mouth & still feel bruises blooming because of my fists & my eyes are still stretched wide & terrified. ’ From theseus to Cass ( sentence prompt // selectively accepting )

with a sigh, cassandra extends her hand, motioning for him to place his hand in hers. carefully, as if those bruises were still there, she slowly removes the blue gloves. “they seem like fine, strong hands to me”  she mumbles, though still treating them with the utmost care.

“let me tell you a story, theseus. do you know that my father’s name was not priam at first? when he was born my grandparents named him podarces. when he was around twelve, heracles attacked troy for an old wrong done to him. he killed every member of the royal family - all, besides my aunt hesione and my father. she bought him free that day and through that act, he became king and build troy back up to the beautiful city I knew. ‘priam’ simply refers to him having been bought, he never let anyone believe that bothered him.

...but he was afraid that day. even later, when I was little and begged my mother to sleep by her side, I would see him wake up at night, eyes wide and terrified. and later too, during the war, no matter if sister or brother: I saw fear in their eyes, I heard them wake from nightmares, stare at parts of their bodies with scars, as if they expected those to open once more. I cannot count how often I bandaged one of my brothers hands.” sometimes, she could still feel her own scars. sometimes when she rested, she could feel the knife cut through her again... those last few moments of her life. and then she has to admit, that she is a dead person still fearful of death.

“your fear, your bruises: your memories of those things. you are not a hero in spite of them, but because of them. they make you more human. they make you the son of the parents you loved... a person that fights with no fear, with nothing behind their actions is even less than a beast.” because even beasts fight to survive. 

“you do not have to be proud of this, though if you wished you could. but personally I do not think those thoughts make you any less, king theseus.”
