''This synopsis is considered up to date leading up to right before Zeus' assassination.''

"Olympus is the main realm of the gods and the
personal realm of the ruler of the gods, Zeus. It is in
the form of a medium-sized city of classical Greek-style
architecture atop a huge mountain. The Palace of the
Olympians features as its most prominent structure. It is
from here that Zeus rules as lord of the universe, assisted
by his council of Olympians.

"The council officially consists of the following deities:
Zeus, Hera, Poseidon, Athena, Ares, Demeter, Apollo,
Artemis, Hephaestus, Aphrodite, Hermes, Hestia,
Dionysus, and Heracles. In practice, only some of these
deities spend much time in Olympus. Poseidon visits
occasionally, but spends most of his time ruling his
own kingdom in Atlantis. Heracles frequently goes off
on adventure. Hestia has basically given up her seat
and spends her time at the true Delphi. Dionysus is
rarely present, spending most of his time wandering the
multiverse. Note that Hades is not part of the council,
as he is almost never in Olympus—officially because of
his dire responsibilities in the Underworld, but it may
be due to resentment and poor relations with Zeus.

"Many other deities not part of the council are
frequently found in Olympus, including Apollo’s son
Asclepius the Healer, Eros, Hebe, Helios, Persephone,
Rhea, Iris, and occasionally Hecate and Morpheus.
Another notable inhabitant is Zeus’ personal cupbearer,
Ganymede, a beautiful mortal boy he kidnapped
and brought to Olympus to replace Hebe. Ganymede is
said to be Zeus’ lover, and is well-liked by most of the
Olympians, although he is utterly hated by Hera.

"Olympus is simply the most important seat of power
in the multiverse and the most-likely place for player
characters to encounter several other gods, engage in
Olympian society and Machiavellian scheming, and
win favor with the more-powerful deities. It is also
from here that Zeus judges cases that require his direct
intervention, settling disputes between the deities,
though he prefers to be very cautious about interfering
with petty disputes that do not have a direct effect in his
realms or the stability of the multiverse as a whole.

"In some campaigns, Olympus may serve as a home
base for the player characters. In others, it might be rarely
visited. Regardless, it is always in the cosmic center of
all things, the final destination of the Olympian Road
and epicenter of divine power. It is not usually a place
for open conflict, but one for political scheming and
mischief, as well as a luxurious center of relaxation and
entertainment for any deity welcomed by Zeus."
''~from '''Lords of Olympus''', p. 90''
