Chronos

Chronos is the Greek god of time. While often confused with Kronos, the two are very distinct beings, but this confusion lead to the idea of Father Time holding a scythe. In truth, Chronos is very different from Kronos. Not only does he not weild a scythe, but he often takes the form of a serpentine man with three heads (one of a man, one of a bull and one of a lion. However he also appears as the Father Time we'd all recognize; a wise old man with a long grey beard and other times as a young man turning the wheel of the zodiac. Like Ananke, he's of great importance, yet plays little role in myths.
