Proteus
By Jimmy Joe
A minor sea-god. Proteus was the eldest son of the Titans Oceanus and Tethys. Proteus was often referred to as the “Old Man of the Sea”. Proteus’ 2999 brothers were all river gods, except for him.
Proteus had the ability to change his shape as well as having oracular power. If captured and held until he surrendered, he would answer his captor’s questions about the future (which Menelaüs (Menelaus) did seven years after the fall of Troy).
