Why is Hades not allowed in Olympus?

Hades isn't an Olympian because the title refers to gods who live on Mount Olympus, and Hades' domain is the Underworld, a separate realm, so he rarely lives there. Despite being a major deity, brother to Zeus and Poseidon, and having immense power, his residence in the underworld set him apart, making him a Chthonic (underworld) god rather than an Olympian.

Why is titan's weakness neck?

The nape of the neck is the Titan's weak spot because it's where the human consciousness/body resides for Titan Shifters, and for regular Pure Titans, it's the critical point connecting the brain to the body, effectively the source of their existence, meaning severing it stops the Titan's regenerative ability and kills the host or the Titan itself. For Shifters, destroying the human inside kills the Titan, while for Pure Titans, it's the origin point where their consciousness is concentrated and connected to their massive body, making it their Achilles' heel.

Why can't Hades have kids?

Hades generally doesn't have children in mainstream Greek myth because he's the god of the dead, making him sterile and associated with the underworld, not life, though some rare Orphic traditions mention children like Makaria or Melinoe, and later interpretations, like in Lore Olympus, suggest infertility from eating pomegranate seeds or psychological blocks.
