[[folder:Cronus, Kronos, or Saturn]]
In Greek mythology, the [[OurTitansAreDifferent titan]] Cronus (also spelled Kronos) was the former King of the Gods and the father of Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades. Fearful that his kids would overthrow him, he tried eating them - this didn't work and Zeus overthrew his father.

The Roman name of Cronus is 'Saturn', and the titan is indeed associated with [[UsefulNotes/{{Saturn}} the planet]]. The Roman form also has the added effect of sounding a bit like 'Satan'.
