PHILONECRON, grandson of the god Poseidon, Assistant Manager of the Department of Sanitation for the Underworld. As a student, Phil took a long time to pick a career path. His teachers pronounced him highly intelligent but lacking discipline, the sort that would rather spend his time writing sonnets about gastronomical distress than doing his geometry homework. After graduation from high school he worked in a few low-level agencies before settling in at the Dept. of Sanitation. But Phil has other goals. He isn't going to be a garbageman forever. He has a plan.
