Brontes, one of the cyclops

The cyclops (pl: cyclopes) was a category of hybrid beast created by the Isu as part of the Olympos Project.

Identifiable by their massive size, the cyclopes resembled giant, one-eyed men armed with rudimentary weaponry. There were at least three known cyclopes present in ancient Greece during the time of the Peloponnesian War; Brontes the Thunderer[1], Steropes the Lightning Bringer, [2] and Arges the Bright One.[3]

According to numerous tales in Greece, various monuments and ruins within the Peloponnese were considered the handiwork of the Cyclopes, their original creators forgotten. The walls of the ancient city Mycenae were also said to be built by the Cyclopes.[4]
