Tell me you're kidding...
And when they help the heroes?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ancien...gion#MythologyThe gods acted like humans and had human vices.[3] They would interact with humans, sometimes even spawning children with them

Even though I'm mostly of Germanic extraction, I've always felt more of an affinity for Greco-Roman mythology and religion. I can't believe how underrepresented Greco-Roman polytheists are among "neo-pagans." We have much more textual, anthropological, and epigraphical evidence of Greco-Roman myth and culture. And Greco-Roman realism in art is unparalleled.

I never mentioned Beowulf? The Lebor na Gabala Erinn mentions a lot of irish gods, and we know too because many of their names or descriptions are similar to ancient celtic finds, such as Lugh vs Lugus or the fact in the book he was born as triplets, and in the statues he has a triple face (sometimes). The poetic edda, written by a christian, 200 years after the last true norse pagan likely died, mentions stories depicted on rune stones made centuries previous, including one where Thor is fishing for Jormundgandr, and he pulls the fishing rod so hard, his foot burst through the bottom of the boat, there is a runestone depicting this scene exactly, down to the bull's head used as bait.
