The Roman Gods were more militant, disciplined, formal, warlike, and tended to interfere less with the lives of mortals and demi-gods.<br/><br/>In the Percy books, Poseidon comes to visit Percy for his birthday and what not...Neptune would never do that. They don't get involved with their children much at all.<br/><br/>The way Hephaestus puts it fits the Roman Gods well: "He decided it was high time we got back to traditional values. Gods were to be respected. Our children to be seen and not visited."<br/><br/><br/><div class="quoteheader"><div class="topslice_quote"><a href="https://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=105114.msg4599282#msg4599282">Quote from: Aiden on 05-05-2011, 17:05:26</a></div></div><blockquote class="bbc_standard_quote">I think I already mentioned that my inspiration for Vincent was leaning a little more towards Vulcan, but I just like blacksmiths and fire in general.

Yes that is possible...as you will find out when you are finished reading that book.  ;)<br/><br/><br/>EDIT: *keeps getting distracted from the manticores!*
