    For anyone who doesn't know, the only reason Nessus' blood was poisonous was because Heracles shot him with those arrows that he coated the tips of with the poisonous blood of the Hydra from his second labor.

      The gigantomachy happened while Heracles was mortal. The giants were indestructible as long as a especifially mortal hero did not hurt them, because they would became mortal again and could be killed. Actually this is why Zeus fathered Heracles, to make the perfect hero to help the gods against the giants. However each author puts that history in diferent points of his life, but was during his mortal life.

    It is odd if ya' think aboot it how Hercules kinda won out over Heracles as the name most people say, because that's basically the only Roman name I can think of that's like that. For the most part all the other major Grecoroman mythological characters either go by their Greek and Roman names interchangeably for most people or there's a slight Greek bias if anything. Zeus/Jupiter, Poseidon/Neptune, Hades/Pluto, etc., people generally play it pretty fast and loose with all that stuff. But it's almost always Hercules as opposed to Heracles. I wonder why that is...
