Hermes’s epithet Argeïphontes (Ancient Greek: Ἀργειφόντης; Latin: Argicida), meaning “slayer of Argus”,[75][76] recalls the slaying of the hundred-eyed giant Argus Panoptes by the messenger god. Argus was watching over the heifer-nymph Io in the sanctuary of Queen Hera, herself in Argos. Hermes placed a charm on Argus’s eyes with the caduceus to cause the giant to sleep, after which he slew the giant with a harpe.[14]
Why no Artemis? I would think they would have an affinity for the hunt.
Even Apollo with his bow and arrows.
I dig Kratos instead of Aries. And as much I love Athena, the blunt force combat side of war seems more appropriate for these guys.
HOWEVER. If there is a female pilot, her call sign should be Athena and she should have Zeus on her plane, so whenever she gets out she’d be emerging as a fully formed warrior from his head.
Hermes was never violent.
