History
Origins[]
Asklepios,[1] also known as Aesculapius[4] or Asclepius,[5] was the son of Olympian God of light Apollo and of Coronis, daughter of King Phlegyas of the Lapiths.[2]
He became a Greek healer[4] and the God of Medicine.[2]
At some point, he sired a son, Machaon.[5]
Trojan War[]
He served the Greeks during the Trojan War and treated Philoctetes after he was bitten by a snake in Tenedos. Despite Asklepios' skills, the wound remained, along with a violent stench, and Philoctetes was left behind on the island of Lemnos.[4]
Years later, in order to win the Trojan War, Odysseus retrieved Philoctetes who was healed by Asclepius' son Machaon.[5]
At some point, Asklepios started residing in Olympus.[1]
War with Mikaboshi[]
He was brought to heal Zeus when he was injured in battle against Amatsu-Mikaboshi, but failed to recognize his injuries at first.[1]
He was present when East god Inari came to the Olympians to ask for an alliance.[1]Attributes
