Ebony Hyperion

The solar god Ebony Hyperion (漆黒のヒュペリオン, Shikkoku no Hyuperion) was the first Titan to be released from Tartarus by Pontos. He is very kind, calm and generous to his brothers and followers. He shows a very different face, however, when fighting an opponent or when cultivating his hatred for Zeus and other enemy gods. Like his brother and close friend Dark Lightning Koios, he is trying not just to free Kronos from Zeus's seal, but also all of the humans who followed the Titans in ancient times.

In battle, Hyperion is merciless and uses either his fists or his sword against any opponent. When clad in his Soma, which has the shape of a greatsword, he resembles a horned demon because his helmet has two curved horns. However, he can also be merciful to a foe who shows exceptional valour like Leo Aiolia.

He possesses an analytical mind capable of reading through a technique he has seen only once and then developing an adequate retaliation strategy. He was also one of the first to see through Pontos and suspect his loyalty.

He develops a special connection to Aiolia after their first fight, becoming something of a rival of the Gold Saint. This is further shown as he is the one who welcomes Aiolia into Kronos's Labyrinth. He reappears later, after his suspicions of Pontos are confirmed as a result of Koios's downfall and he discovers that Mnemosyne had been manipulating the Titans' memories. He attempts to attack her and it is revealed that he had been sealed inside the Egyptian sun god Apophis in ancient times and that it was Pontos's Ichor that had brought him back to life. He goes to battle the Gold Saints for the last time after that and falls at the hands of Aiolia, to whom he entrusts his desire to protect his King and his people.

Apart from these techniques, Hyperion can manipulate the air, creating blasts of incredibly high pressure. He can toy with an enemy's body by throwing it away without touching it or spinning it around, and even deflect blasts thrown at him. Hyperion can also create and manipulate lava and, taking advantage of his black sun, create afterimages of his body during a fight in order to confuse his enemy.

Mythology
Hyperion (Greek Ὑπερίων, "The High-One") was one of the twelve Titan gods of Ancient Greece, the sons and daughters of Gaia (the physical incarnation of Earth) and Uranus (literally meaning 'the Sky'), which were later supplanted by the Olympians.He was the brother of Cronus. He was also the lord of light, and the Titan of the east. He was referred to in early mythological writings as Helios Hyperion (Ἥλιος Υπερίων), 'Sun High-one'. But in Homer's Odyssey, Hesiod's Theogony and the Homeric Hymn to Demeter, the Sun is once in each work called Hyperionides (περίδής) 'son of Hyperion', and Hesiod certainly imagines Hyperion as a separate being in other writings. In later Ancient Greek literature, Hyperion is always distinguished from Helios; the former was ascribed the characteristics of the 'God of Watchfulness and Wisdom', while the latter became the physical incarnation of the Sun. Hyperion plays virtually no role in Greek culture and little role in mythology, save in lists of the twelveTitan. Later Greeks intellectualized their myths: "Of Hyperion we are told that he was the first to understand, by diligent attention and observation, the movement of both the sun and the moon and the other stars, and the seasons as well, in that they are caused by these bodies, and to make these facts known to others; and that for this reason he was called the father of these bodies, since he had begotten, so to speak, the speculation about them and their nature." —Diodorus Siculus (5.67.1) There is little to no reference to Hyperion during the Titanomachy, the epic in which the Olympians battle the ruling Titans, or the Gigantomachy, in which Gaia attempts to avenge the Titans by enlisting the aid of the giants (Γίγαντες) that were imprisoned in Tartarus to facilitate the overthrow of the Olympians.
