The Greek god with gold eyes, or whose children are described with flashing golden eyes, is Helios, the Titan god of the Sun, as he personifies the sun and his eyes emit golden light, a trait passed to his children, the Heliades. While other gods like Apollo are linked to the sun and light, Helios is the direct personification, often depicted with radiant features.
Apollo: Blue as Greek, Green as Roman (Apollo was not a sun god in the Greek days, with that power going to Helios. His eyes are green as a Roman due to domain over the Sun) Ares/Mars: Red in both (both Romans and Greeks alike associated red with this god)

Yes, many Greek gods had male lovers, with the norm being bisexuality, though figures like Zeus (with Ganymede), Apollo (with Hyacinthus), Hermes, Dionysus, and the hero Heracles are famous examples, often involved in pederastic relationships or deep bonds that modern interpretation calls homosexual or bisexual. While gods like Ares, Hades, and Hephaestus had fewer or no male lovers, same-sex relationships were common across the pantheon, with Zeus often cited as the prime example of a powerful god with male paramours.
The top 3 rarest eye colors are typically considered red/violet, green, and gray, with red/violet often cited as the absolute rarest (less than 1%) due to albinism, followed by green (around 2%) and gray (around 3%), though some sources place heterochromia (different colored eyes) as rarest, also under 1%. These rare colors stem from extremely low melanin levels or unique light scattering in the iris.

Hades is very tall with broad shoulders and a sharp, long nose. He has azure skin and ivory white and blue toned hair. He wears his hair short, but in the Mortal Realm it becomes longer.

Jesus is depicted as white primarily because European artists, starting in the Byzantine era and solidifying in the Middle Ages, portrayed him with their own features to make him relatable to their audiences, a practice reinforced by colonialism, creating a dominant Eurocentric image that became popular culture, despite historical evidence suggesting a Middle Eastern appearance. This shift from earlier, darker depictions allowed people to see Jesus as part of their own culture, with later influential images, like Warner E. Sallman's 1940 painting, cementing the fair-skinned, blue-eyed look in the West.
