The Fates are a group of deities in Disney's 1997 movie Hercules. These three sisters share one eye, which they use to see the future. They also determine the deaths of mortals, cutting a mortal's Thread of Life to send them to the Well of Souls in the Underworld. They have extreme psychic abilities, knowing everything that has happened, is happening and will happen, and are an authority above the gods in this respect, though the one thing they cannot do is kill a god.

  • The Fates were said to be three old women from the Far East given the gift of a crystal eye by the Greek gods to see the fate of everyone and everything. In 1937, Indiana Jones recovered the shield of Perseus off the Greek coast which contained a fragmented message by Perseus claiming that he "stole the Eye from the three women of Hokk—". Suspecting the broken word could refer to the Japanese island of Hokkaido, Jones used the shield as the first clue to finding the artifact.
  • The Fates (also known as The Moirai) are the three white-robed personifications of destiny in Greek mythology. Their Roman counterparts are the Parcae or Fata. The Greek word Moira literally means part or portion and by extension one's portion in life or destiny. They controlled the metaphorical thread of life for every living thing from birth to death.

  • God gave Atropos the job to maintain fate, make sure everything happened the way it should, that everything followed its destiny and that everything died when its time was up. After Balthazar saved the Titanic, Atropos was immensely enraged, which caused her to take matters into her own hands, killing all the descendants of the people who should have died. She then tried to kill Sam and Dean, as it was them who put her out of her job. She managed to force Balthazar and Castiel to change it back by threatening to kill Sam and Dean. She also ignored Castiel's threats because killing her would anger her sisters, who she implied to be more powerful. She also reminded Castiel that with Heaven's civil war, he would be too busy to look after them.
  • The Three Fates are characters in Hercules. These three sisters share one eye, which they use to see the future. They are wise and also determine the deaths of mortals, cutting a mortal’s Thread of Life to send them to the Well of Souls in the Underworld.

  • The Three Fates are responsible for maintaining the destinies of all gods and mortals living under Zeus's Olympian order. They are Clotho, who spins the thread of life to mortals & gods alike; Lachesis, who measures the threads of each individual; and Atropos, who cuts each thread of life when it is time for someone to die. Their appearances reflect their functions: Clotho appears as a young maiden, Lachesis as a mature woman, and Atropos as a crone.
