Q8: In Roman Myth Chronos' father was named UranusQ9: It was foretold that one of Chronos' children would overthrow him so in an attempt to overcome this destiny (the futility of combating destiny being a common theme in a lot of greco/roman myth) he commanded that all of his children be presented to him at which point he would consume them. Rhea, Zeus' mother was tired of seeing her children eaten so she gave chronos a stone, the umphalos (which now resides near delphi), instead of her child.

he was captured by some Taoist and Buddhist forces along with some of the greatest deities in heaven. He was captured but they couldn't deal with him so the jade emperor called in the Buddha to help and he was the one that dealt with the monkey king my trapping him under a mountain that was the Buddha's hand.

for question 19, I'll go with the cyclops, if I remembered correctly. If that is not it, I'll go with Vulcan, the god of the forge.
