Roman culture in modern culture - Diana and pantheon

              In the game League of Legends, there are characters called Diana and Pantheon. Diana is a goddess of the moon, and pantheon is a god of battle. Diana gained her powers by climbing mount Targon and finding a hidden Lunari temple high up on it. When she entered she was deemed worthy of the power of the Lunari and gained the powers of the moon goddess. Pantheon (formerly Atreus a Rakkoran) gained his powers when he was taking his dying friend to the top of mount Targon.he was attempting to make it to the top of the mountain to be blessed with powers from the gods, but when they reached the top nothing was there. In that time barbarians had begun to attack villages and when the armies of the barbarians and the Rakkorans started to climb toward the top of mount Targon a snow storm started to slow them down and make it hard for them to move. As both armies closed in on the top of the mountain the stars of the pantheon constellation shot down to earth and fused with Atreus. Atreus had become one with the warrior's aspect and became: The Pantheon a god of battle. the stories of these two characters don't exactly match up, but with Diana, the celestial character of Diana how been associated with light and prefers to dwell on high mountains which matches up with Diana the character's story. In Pantheons case, I couldn't find anything other than the temple so I am not entirely sure why he got his name. For Diana, the use of her name makes sense because both are goddesses of the moon, and for pantheon I again don think the use makes sense but it sounds cool.
