Description
| Main Article: Bellerophon |
Bellerophon is basically a human who thinks he's the son of Poseidon, and therefore half god. He is not half god. He invented the telephone, the xylophone, and sticky notes. He gained a lot of favor with the gods by taming the Pegasus and slaying the Chimera.
Abilities
Has a Pegasus, spear, and bow and arrow. Otherwise, just pretty much a human.
Tale
| Main Article: Bellerophon |
Bellerophon sought the advice of Athena, and tamed the Pegasus with her help. After taming it, he took it to Lycia where he hunted down the Chimera. The battle was vicious, and Bellerophon found it difficult to get the upper hand. He tied a block of lead to his spear and dropped it at the Chimera. When the Chimera tries to eat the spear, its fire breathing melts the lead, blocking its throat and causing it to suffocate and die.

The Fight
Taking place on a moon base with a low, domed ceiling of a max height of 12 feet, Bellerophon faces off against four Headless Men, only his spear and Pegasus at his side. The headless men move around to surround, Belle fending them off with thrusts of his spear. One headless man takes a stab from the spear, biting down on the spear with its large mouth, grabbing it with the limbs it can use, and trying to prevent harm to his fellows.
Bellerophon quickly commands the Pegasus to attack one of the headless men, biting fiercely at one. Bellerophon says "You know I killed a Chimera, right?" And pulls out his bow, and starts firing arrows at the others. One weird headless man takes this moment to fist the Pegasus right in the anus, causing slight discomfort due to having large hands. The Pegasus kicks back, trying to hit the headless man in the head. Unfortunately, nothing is there and the headless man is fine.
In the chaos, the final headless man dives at Bellerophon, tackling it off the Pegasus, but Belle's superior fighting abilities overcomes the attack, killing the headless man. The other three slowly die from their own injuries and fights with the Pegasus.
Winner: Bellerophon.
