For me it's Ares plain and simple. I am also very fond of his children. Eros, Deimos, Phobos, Harmonia, Anteros, etc. So working with them is something I will be looking into in the furture. As well as what I would consider to be some of his allies. Hermes, Dionysus, Thanatos, and Hades. I also wouldn't mind perhaps working with Artemis perhaps. She is one of the very few goddesses I am fond of.
i've always been very private about naming my deities online. originally i read how it was believed if someone learned who your dieties were they could gain some power over you. today i just do so simply because it's personal and i don't want to tell everyone [but if you pm me and happen to work with the same deity as me, i'm fine chatting, my matron is very obscure so i know the struggle of finding information on her]
i've jumped around for many years, i never felt that connected with the Wiccan Goddess [the Wiccan God however i always felt a bond] so in the beginning because i always loved Egyptian mythology i tried working with various Egyptian Goddesses [with varying degrees of success] i didn't actually find my matron until late last year. i wanted to form a close connection and all the previous Goddesses didn't click with me, so i did a bunch of research trying to figure out how to find and connect with your matron. one day i googled 'deities associated with [insert animal] ' and she was the first that came up. before i even clicked on the link i got this feeling [hard to describe, it felt like bumping into an old friend i guess] i wanted to make sure it wasn't me just agreeing with the first thing i saw, so i looked at the other deities, and googled a few others, but i kept circling back. about 3 days later i felt her presence, and that night i had a dream about her, so i've been working with her from that day on.
it's been a real experience since there's very little written about her [most people just link her to a similar goddess in another mythology] so it's been a lot of trial and error.

The main, and more well-known, deities I honor and work with include Loki, Fenrir, Mimir, Surtr, Rindr, Angrboda, Aegir, Ran and the Wave Maidens. That isn't to say there aren't others (in the past I've honored Hel, Freyja, Skadi some) but these tend to be the ones I spend the most time and devotion on these days.
The one that thee work with and honor is the one and only triple goddess also known as Maiden, Mother and Crone. If ye does not know of such feel free to ask thee.
