--- Quote ---Interestingly, WoJ suggests that titans are imprisoned under Demonreach.

Can you give me a reference for this. I would like to see it. I love the idea. Some of the titans had a fifty heads or a hundred arms. That would be hard to do with humanlike heads or arms but if you think of snakes for the heads or tentacles for the arms you would have creatures that sound very much like the Outsiders, at least if they are Lovecraftian as most suspect. At least one was a Cyclops. If, in fact, the theory that the name the Mothers have in common is Gaia things get even more interesting. Gaia was the mother of the Titans and the Giants. She was also the mother of Typhon according to some legends had a hundred heads (sometimes dragon heads) and whose bottom half was the coils of a gigantic viper. He reached to the stars and was covered in wings. She (Gaia) was also the mother (with Tartarus who was a being as well as a place) of Typhon's wife Echidna who is often referred to as the "Mother of Monsters". Depending on the myth, she is said to be the mother of a great many monsters including Cerebrus and the Nemedian Lion. If both theories (that Demonreach was Tartarus and that the Mothers are faces of Gaia) are true then that would open the door for all kinds of interesting things.

Jim: 5) I said that they were real in that world. Whether or not they actually /exist/ is a different story. The Titans got their asses handed to them by Zeus and company, and were imprisoned, destroyed, or consigned to oblivion. How do you imprison a Titan? Funny you should ask...
AMA before CD was released.
OZ:
Thanks. I wonder in TDF universe if Zeus is another of the faces that Odin wears. I would hope not since Zeus was arrogant, a rapist and the world's worst deadbeat dad but it would be interesting in light of the battle between Zeus and the Titans.
