athena
"In greek mythology and religion, Athena is the goddess of wisdom, courage, inspiration, civilization, law & justice, just warfare, mathematics, strenght, strategy, the arts, crafts, and skill.
The bird which sees well in the night is closely associated with the goddess of wisdom: in archaic images, Athena is frequently depicted with an owl perched on her hand. This pairing evolved in tandem so that even in present day the owl is upheld as a symbol of perspicacity and erudition."

conclusion: Athena is a pretty badass goddess.
I have loved greek mythology ever since I first learnt about it in 3rd grade. I just think that the stories behind the gods and goddesses are extremely fascinating, and my favorite has always been the one about Athena. (You should definitely look it up!) She is so tough and I love that one of the best and wisest warriors throughout the greek mythology and its history is a woman.
