Best Answer

Athena helped Odysseus in many ways, she probably provided the olive tree in which he carved a spear to use to blind polyphemus.Olive trees were one of her symbols. Athena may also have had something to do with the rams coming in the second night they were trapped in the cave so Odysseus and his crew could get out to safety. He was very wise which shows she helped him because she was the goddess of wisdom and war.

What would medusa the greek god use her powers for?

Medusa isn't a Greek Goddess, and she doesn't have any powers, except if you mean the 'turn into stone when you look her in the eye' thing. That was only a curse by Athena because Medusa and Poseidon were making love in one of Athena's temples, and Athena is a virgin goddess.

Why doesn't Kratos have godly powers in Ghost of Sparta?

In my opinion it was due to this: When Kratos took the throne of the former God of War, he took all that powers with him BUT he did not have the knowledge tu make use of full godly powers, he just could use magic bestowed by the gods (then that magic are made for a mortal to wield) and it was not until Athena comes from the portal to Mt. Olympus and give to Kratos the knowledge to be able of use it (Thus he was ready to be a god in Athena's words) but it seemed that Athena attempted to make Kratos more peaceful and less rageful against the other gods' behaviour at the time she was giving that knowledge and it is for that reason that Kratos was a little angry with Athena (Yes, a little). That it is my opinion because I see no other reason to not use godly powers when he is fighting a god FEARED BY OLYMPUS while DEIMOS IS RISKING HIS LIFE (That god is Thanatos, I tell that if someone who read it does not know) Of course, the powers of Pandora's box ARE NOT that powers.
