Amphitrite-Poseidon's Wife. Poor old Amphitrite doesn't get much press as the wife of Poseidon. She's not even mentioned in Rick Riordan's Percy Jackson series. If she was, I missed it. In the Seven Adventures of Cadida, Amphitrite appears, but she doesn't get a lot of page time.
Poseidon was the Olympian god of sea, floods and earthquakes. In some cases, he is also referred as the god of horses. He was known for his fast changing temperament and was easily offended. And because he was also dignified and competitive, it was very important not to offend him or argue his statements and acts. Those who angered him, became the victims of his wrath. He was known for causing major catastrophic events, such as floods, earthquakes and sea storms. He even unleashed his sea monsters in order to get even. Poseidon was also very lustful and selfish when it came to women.
