All greek mythology mentioned bellow is a free interpretation & mash-up of what versions are around.

Origin
Hades was born to the titans Rhea and Cronus, who were both children of the earth goddess Gaia and the god of the sky Uranus. His direct siblings are Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Demeter and Hestia. Although Rhea was considered the 'mother of gods', she did not qualify as a goddess herself. Cronus on the other hand overthrew his father Uranus, envying his power as the ruler of the universe. Cronus and the rest of the titans were eventually overthrown by Zeus, Hades and Poseidon so they could take over the reign of the cosmos.

I haven't been this choked up since I got a

hunk of moussaka caught in my throat.«


Personality
Generally speaking Hades is dedicated to the task assigned to him. Watching over the souls of the dead and accompanying them on their way through the river of Styx. He has quite a temper when it comes to any of his siblings, especially Zeus, since he wants to not only rule over one dimension of the world. Although Hades plays rather dirty if he is determined, he keeps any promise he made, including keeping his part of a sealed deal.

»Nah. I mean, it's, you know, it's a possibility.

It happens 'cause, you know, it's war, but what can I tell ya.

Anyway, what do you owe these people, huh?«


Abilities
The powers of Hades include all of what the underworld consists of. He will attempt to manipulate mortals by different means, which range from sending one of his footmen to taking matters into his own hands. Death is his speciality, therefore he can cause spontaneous decay, extract souls to send them to the underworld directly as well as bringing someone back to life. However, he can not create life as this is not his department.

Weaknesses
Possessing the element of fire to a degree, Hades 'hair' can be extinguished by showering it with water, or simply blowing it out. The only way to render him powerles is to achieve a contract that, if fulfilled, will force him to play by the rules. It should not be taken lightly, no matter what benefits might result for you from the deal, though. Because he is not going to hesitate to cash in a soul he possesses.

or the entire scheme I've been setting up for 18 years goes up in smoke,

AND YOU ARE WEARING HIS MERCHANDISE?!«

Cedric glanced around the Mythological books and read each one of them, until he stumbled upon the Greek Gods and Goddesses, "Fascinating!" He said as he got to read them, but he finally found one of the gods that wasn't mentioned a lot, Hades, Lord of the Dead. "Wow, not once he was mentioned, but at the very end they describe only LITTLE of him!?" He sighed, "I know how it feels. Father is the most powerful sorcerer, and everyone wants me to be LIKE him, but I am not..." He said and saw at the end on how he can try to communicate with either one of the gods and/or goddesses. He then noticed the words, "One hand washes the other...?" Cedric mumbled, "What does that even mean?" He asked.


Cedric held his family wand, and he waived it around, "Summon oh mighty Greek God of the Dead."

((Yeah it's me. The one who RP'ed as Jasmine and Jim!))
The sorcrerer probably wasn't fully aware yet that he hit the nail on the head. Hades didn't like it that Zeus got to rule the meaningful parts of the dimensions - Olympus. Soon though, all of this was going to belong to him and there was nothing his beloved brother could do about it.

Now, depending on his form on the day Hades was quite easy to flatter. His attention something easily earned. Today was one of these days. Not a whole lot of work he wished to attend to and he so happened to be mightily bored. He rose from his throne, paying attention to the spell of Cedric. It didn't matter to him what a mortal may want from him. He was sure to turn it around just the way he needed it to be anyhow.

With an impressive 'boom' and a whole lot of smoke, the deity appeared in front of the - in comparison - quite short sorcerer. Easily towering before him without having to put any effort into it. Hades looked around a little before he spotted Cedric, then smirked down at him, showing off his pointy teeth. "Who's calling me at this ungodly hour, the most perfect point of time?" He inquired, laughing at his own joke. "Hades, Lord of the Dead. With whom do I have the pleasure of speaking?"

((I know. :D Hey there))
"I'm Cedric the Great and Powerful Sorcerer." He said with a bow, "Also, I didn't know my summoning spell would work on a god, but I want to know why this Mythological book would write so little of you." he said as he looked at the book.
"The great and powerful sorcerer?" He repeated amusedly. "How come I haven't heard of you yet, buddy?! Guess you didn't stirr up a whole lot in the world of the living, did you!" The deity briefly tapped his chin, then he grinned again. "Nobody likes to write or think about death and it's consequences.. and yet everyone dies eventually. It's hilarious isn't it? Well, if that isn't a reason to celebrate!" He cheered sarcastically. "So what is it that you wanted to see me for, Cedric? My time is quite valuable and I'm a very busy god."

((I am so curious about what sort of relationship Jack and Hades would have. I mean...Jack is "dead" by his own admittance. I am wondering if these two 1. Know each other 2. Are on good terms with one another or just ignorantly tolerant? Any ideas for any future reference?))
((Well, considering Jack is dead Hades would hold a grudge against him for not being one of the dutyful souls that just vanish into the underworld without causing more of a fuss than necessary. While I doubt Hades would remember Jack as an individual, he would know he doesn't belong into the world of the living at first glance. He wouldn't drag him to the underworld if he can't be bothered, but if Jack proves to be troublesome.. he would. Your thoughts?))
((Makes sense. Halloween Town is a mix of forces that are both alive and dead, so it's sort of its own....pocket. But, it is mentioned that the citizens go to the "real world" once a year to scare people, preferably children. So it sounds as if they'd simply tolerate each other unless something came up that would pit them against one another. I would certainly think the...Christmas fiasco, as I call it, would have been both troublesome yet highly entertaining as well for Hades LOL. But, what you said makes sense. Jack is the kind of Halloween Town and the holiday...but he's still dead. Although it does get confusing, as Jack says that "since he is dead, he can take off his head." However, in the movie, he's also mourned when he "dies" again. So not sure how that works, since Jack can be "killed" again. Also not sure how a lot of things work for Halloween Town, as in the epilogue, it's said that Jack has 4 or 5 skeleton children.

Hmmm, it could be argued that Halloween Town is simply that...a holiday pocket world, or that, due to its nature, it's an offshoot of the underworld/world of the dead/Limbo. In mythology, I know there are some things in Hades in which would be considered "alive" but seem to belong nowhere else. So...maybe Halloween Town is a sort of offshoot of the Elysian Fields or Limbo since it has a mix of things that Hades would have command over...I think...maybe. LOL Thoughts?))
