 Bacchus eventually joined the [[Net.Trenchcoat Brigade]], a fitting place for the god of madness and tragedy as well as alcohol. Some people say he was the first trenchcoater.

 Okay, so Zeus liked a bit on the side, right? I mean, Hera was never very understanding of that sort of thing. A bit jealous. So, when the big guy took a shine to this mortal woman, Semele, and Hera found out, she really got mad. Convinced Semele that the guy she'd been seeing wasn't just an ordinary bloke. Semele wasn't too happy about this, and the next time Zeus comes round (she's already pregnant by him), she challenges him to show himself in his full regalia. Including thunderbolts, which is a bit of a mistake really, because Semele gets frazzled instantly. Zeus, who's really unhappy about this, takes the kid from her womb, and sews him up inside his thigh to carry on gestating. No, honest, it's all true. Just ask Ovid.
-Anyway, when he's ready, out he comes, and lo and behold, it's a new god, Bacchus, the god of wine. The rest is history. Quite a bit of it, in fact. Listen to the man himself: "You can live for a thousand years and be in your prime. Two thousand- who's to say you ain't gonna live forever? Three thousand, the "noble rot" sets in. And after four thousand years, there are suddenly lots of deadfaced gods attending to unfinished business in a hurry".
