Dionysius


Hi my name is Dionysius and I am also called Bacchus. I am the god of wine, festivals and parties. Some of the symbols that are most commonly used to represent me are grapes, wine and ambrosia. One of the stories I am most known for is the story of my birth. The story of my birth is that Zeus, my father raped my mother and when she was about to give birth to me, one of the thunderbolts of Zeus killed her. But someone managed to rescue me. Although I have no special powers, I’m immortal.
