History
Hestia is the eldest child born to Cronus and Rhea. She was swallowed by her father and grew up inside of his stomach and eventually freed by her younger brother, Zeus. She fought alongside him in the Titanomachy where she slew the Titan Koios, incinerating his body. When they won, the other Gods expected her to take up the role as the Queen of their Pantheon but was shocked when Zeus took the rule. Hestia protested Zeus's imprisonment of their mother within Tartarus but was outvoted as the other gods except for Hades were bitter about her passiveness during the war and her inability to save them.

During Typhon's invasion when the other Olympians fled to Egypt, Hestia battled Apophis evenly for a while but was ultimately beaten back by the Chaos Goddess. Apophis spared them due to the fact that she saw Hestia as an entertaining fight. After the Emerald Dragon went into slumber, Hestia discovered that Ouranos still lived and told her grandfather what happened to her mother. Together, they freed Rhea, who had been abused in Tartarus, and rehabilitated her.

Appearance
Hestia appears as a young girl with reddish-orange hair and orange eyes. She has a gem resembling a ruby on her forehead. In her flaming form, Hestia's hair flares upwards and becomes flames. Her entire body transforms into a humanoid being made of pure fire.

Personality
Hestia is kind and gentle. She is the most sisterly of all the Goddesses and does not look down on mortals as pleasure tools or pawns. Hestia is the only Goddess and God that Zeus can be himself around, mainly because she can't find in her heart to see him as a monster or a horrible person in general. Hestia always manages to find the best in Zeus and brings it out of him and around her, Zeus becomes a young boy who loves to spend time with his older sister. She will, however, go against his choices such as his decision to imprison Rhea in Tartarus. She is also very humble as seen when she willingly gave her seat up for Dionysus, despite her siblings' protests.

Hestia gets along well with other Gods from different pantheons. She is in love with the Slavic God of Darkness Chernobog much to her siblings' joy and Chernobog's sister, Belebog's relief.

Despite being a pacifist, Hestia is no stranger to combat and will only fight and kill in self defense.
