Palla s (Warrior) Greek A second generation Titan; considered by some to be the god of warfare and of the springtime battle season. Pallas was the son of Crius and Eurybia and the brother of Astraeus and Perses; He married Styx, a daughter of Oceanus; and with her had four children, Zelus, Nike, Cratus, and Bia, whose names meant, respectively, zeal, victory, strength, and force, all terms of warfare. His children and wife fought against him when they joined the great Olympian God Zeus in his battle against the Titans.
