TARTARUS
Also known as TARTAROS
TARTARUS: Primeval God of Hell, and the place of ultimate punishment.
One of the first Gods to arise from the void of Creation, TARTARUS, like his siblings NYX and CHAOS, personifies ultimate formless gloom. Little is known of his personality but as the first God of Hell we assume him to be a dour and depressing being.
TARTARUS lives in the bowels of the Earth, many miles below as the anvil falls, and holds together the bottomless pits of the world. Presumably HADES rents the Underworld from him on favorable terms.
As Greek Mythology developed, TARTARUS sank into oblivion, giving his name to the dark places of punishment for those that have been judged guilty of unspeakablenesses.
