The Cyclopes are one-eyed giants from Greek mythology, known for their immense strength and mastery of blacksmithing. The two main groups The First Generation (Children of Uranus and Gaia): These are the three brothers Bront (thunder), Sterop (lightning) and Argus (shine). They were allies of Zeus and it was they who forged his thunderbolts, Poseidon's trident and Hades' invisibility helmet.
