Dolos, in the modern World


Dolos to the ancient Greeks was the God of deception. If Dolos was for real in the modern world, he would have a huge following on all social media outlets. His personal favorites to go on would be Facebook and Twitter. He would spread fake news that seem real to manipulate the general public. He does not care for money or power, but simply finds it amusing to see humans fight one another after. He is cunning and knows the right things to say to get people rallied up and fight over a problem that was never real in the first place. People would follow him online because they believe he is a good news reporter, well in reality, he is simply a good story teller. Everything he post seems so real and authenic which makes it hard for people to see that it is a lie because he generates buzz at ease. He is a scary God to deal with because you may never know where he will come from or where to even track him. He is a God of many faces and many voices which makes him truly terrifying in this day and age.
