The titan is a monster in NetHack. It is infamous for its guaranteed appearance on one of two variants of Medusa's level and can be difficult for a player at that stage of the game to defeat due to its tendency to summon large swarms of monsters. They are also one of two significant obstacles on the average dig for victory (the other being minotaurs).
Encyclopedia entry
Gaea, mother earth, arose from the Chaos and gave birth to Uranus, heaven, who became her consort. Uranus hated all their children, because he feared they might challenge his own authority. Those children, the Titans, the Gigantes, and the Cyclops, were banished to the nether world. Their enraged mother eventually released the youngest titan, Chronos (time), and encouraged him to castrate his father and rule in his place. Later, he too was challenged by his own son, Zeus, and he and his fellow titans were ousted from Mount Olympus. [ Greek Mythology, by Richard Patrick ]
