Agreed. Athena will f you over. Same here for Poseidon I mean look at Odysseus.

Probably Loki. Though there are lots of others, like Athena, Thor, Odin, Set, Artemis, Freya, Artemis, Isis, Hela, Nephthys, Lakshmi...

Man, there's so many.

Got a thing for Artemis, eh? I always found her a little ... chilly. Nice girl but not a real warm personality.

Artemis or Athena because they're a few of the goddesses that aren't portrayed in a sexist manner, which is kind of ironic given how the Greeks behaved towards women. I like Loki and Odin for male gods though, Loki for his fun, tricksterish ways and Odin for his intelligence and I'm going to be frivolous here, because eyepatches are cool.

There are quite a few pagan gods whose stories I like, so it is hard to choose. Sutekh, the Egyptian god of chaos and the desert is probably the most interesting to me. He was originally a hero, but later Egyptian stories about him portray him as evil because of his association with foreigners. He is kind of analogous to Satan or Lucifer in Christian mythology.

There is an out of control trolley speeding towards Jeremy Bentham, who is tied to the track. You can pull the lever to cause the trolley to switch tracks, but on the other track is Immanuel Kant. Bentham is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Critique of Pure Reason. Kant is clutching the only copy in the universe of The Principles of Moral Legislation. Both men are shouting at you that they have recently started to reconsider their ethical stances.
