| | Demigod - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | "Demigod" is sometimes used to translate the term asura in the context of Buddhism and devas in Hinduism. |  | | The term "demigod" is sometimes used to refer to minor gods, and devas in Hinduism, though this is not the proper definition of the term here either. |  | | The hero's mother manages to lie with king and god in the same night (mother of Theseus) or to be visited secretly by the god (Danaë, mother of Perseus), and the seed of the two fathers is mixed in her womb (not a modern biological possibility, but one that was firmly established in Antiquity). |

| | Precious Time |
 | | The demigod had vowed he would not let a third person he loved die, but now it seemed to be beyond his control. |  | | The demigod was surprised that the Olympian responsible hadn’t shown up to gloat, but then he realized that whoever it was must be saving that pleasure until after Iolaus was dead. |  | | The demigod slid a hand under his friend’s head, lifting him up slightly to coax a sip of water into him. |

| | XENA: A DEMIGOD? |
 | | If the everyday world in which people live in the Xenaverse can also be thought of as a chessboard for the gods, then the gods will use whatever material is at hand to attempt to gain whatever advantage or goal they seek. |  | | Suppose further that, in the Xenaverse, the children of a god and a mortal human always resemble each other, regardless of the genetic contribution of each mortal parent, thus endowing the children with a godlike "field identification tag" of sorts. |  | | Part Five: Summing Up [29] Finally, a word to those who would say, "But I like Xena better than Hercules because we already know Hercules is a demigod and it's not really a challenge for Xena if she is one too." Well, of course I can see that point of view. |

| | CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Mithraism |
 | | The Avesta however gives us his position only after the Zoroastrian reformation; the inscriptions of the Achaemenidae (seventh to fourth century B.C.) assign him amuch higher place, naming him immediately after Ahura Mazda and associating him with the goddess Anaitis (Anahata), whose name sometimes precedes his own. |  | | In the Avesta he is much more of a living and ruling deity than in Indian piety; nevertheless, he is not only secondary to Ahura Mazda, but he does not belong to the seven Amshaspands or personified virtues which immediately surround Ahura; he is but a Yazad, a popular demigod or genius. |

 | | Where 'Slumber...' was a dark, brooding and depressive piece of atonally melodic death metal, the sophomore full-length, 'Shadow Mechanics' sees Demigod not only expanding the scope of their death metal sound, but also venturing into other, somewhat unexpected musical realms. |  | | Overall, though, 'Shadow Mechanics' is a great album that goes to show that there is life after Scandeath. |  | | Demigod managed to effectively progress away from the heavy Autopsy influence that was ubiquitous in early 90's Scandinavian death metal without losing any personality or intensity, and for that they deserve high praise. |

 | | "Demigod" is one of the most awe-inspiringly brutal death metal albums I've ever heard and it still has the good sense to put effort and intelligence into the songwriting. |  | | I didn't hear this much on their past few efforts, but on "Demigod", you can really hear the layering a lot more and it makes Nergal's vocals sound muddy and noisy. |  | | The plan is simple - from the time "Demigod" begins to its final note, you will be beaten, battered and bruised. |

 | | "Demigod" (second complete album) on the other hand is more of an easy-listening album as the melodic black-metal is catchier that its predecessor. |  | | DIMMU BORGIR' "Enthrone Darkness Triumphant" and CRADLE OF FILTH (only the keyboard-parts) remind me of the clean sound which is being heard on NINNGHIZHIDDA' last album. |  | | Probably the most annoying band-name in the metal-scene to spell, NINNGHIZHIDDA has been around since '97 so this German metal-formation have had plenty of time to release other albums before "Demigod", like 'Blasphemy'. |
