About Theseus in Hades

Theseus proclaims himself "the great king of Athens". He is considered to be a hot-headed, stubborn, and even childish ex-hero, best known for his notable youthful exploits that earned him an immortal soul. He is also pompous and arrogant, constantly proud and confident in his victories. Most residents outside of Elysium find him insufferable due to his arrogance. He occasionally revels in his pride during conversations, displaying immodesty. He tends to take things to extremes and disregards evidence that doesn't fit his preconceptions, often pushing Zagreus' buttons. In Theseus' mind, Zagreus is useless and not a true warrior, despite repeatedly defeating him. Zagreus' attempts at conversation are seen as lies and deception, and Theseus refuses to accept any provocation suggesting that there are better heroes than him.
