Hades doesn't really have any friends.

His closest relations are Zeus and Poseidon, his brothers, Hera, Hestia, and Demeter, his sisters, and his parents Rhea and Cronus. He was married to Persephone. Also, the personification of Death was Thanatos, so they were (probably) friends. He was also probably friends with the Furies and Hermes, as they punished people who tried to escape death, and escorted people to Hades, respectively.

Hades was Demeter's enemy, because he abducted her daughter, so that she could only see her for part of the year. He did not take sides in the Iliad.

Hades Friends

The Gods of the Greek Pantheon were not really 'friends' or 'enemies'. The conflicts were on going and changing. The most common story of Hades though has the characters Persephone and Demeter. Persephone was stolen away by Hades to be his bride and her mother, Demeter, pined away at her loss. So, in a sense, Demeter was an enemy.

What is your report meant to be about?

Hermes was probably a friend because he guided souls throught he crossroads of death to Charons boat.

He was most likely friends with Zues and Poseidon for they didn't really interfere in each others realms except when Demeter pleaded with Zues for the return of her Daughter Persphone, even then Zeus let him keep Persphone part of the year. I bet Demeter and Hades were enemies after that happen.
She was probably his only enemy because even the gods could be punished and sent to his realm, so I sure most Deities didn't cross him. Hope this helps some. There really aren't a lot of stories about his personality in existence. Technically the ancients never said his name out loud for fear of invoking him and bringing death upon themselves, he was represented in polite conversation buy cupping both hands to your ears and then covering your mouth with both hands breifly while bowing the head, if you had to mention him at all.

Hades in greek and Sheol in hebrew are words that both mean the common grave of mankind. That is all.

Whether in a pot on the mantle, a hole in the ground, at sea, or even shot up in a rocket, that is still the grave. Where in Eccleseastes 9: 5-6 says the dead have no thoughts or feelings so no suffering.

So who are the friends and/ or enemies of Hades? Humans. All humans die for now. They sleep in death. At least there are no nightmares.

Jesus triumphed over the powers of darkness and knows more about Hades than anyone else! That is why he referred to gates, in the plural. That is why he came to 'preach deliverance to the captives' (Luke 4:18). To prisoners, gates are points of emergence into liberty. Or they are sources of unspeakable torment and confinement. Closed gates result in hope dying. We are all prisoners until Christ sets us free and puts us at liberty within His church, against which the gates of Hades shall not prevail. Yet Christ's church is built within the prison! Hades is the prison that is destroyed from within. The prison walls may stand terrible and firm, but the gates will yield to Christ! He has 'the keys of Hades and of death' (which proves death is not Hades - Rev. 1:18) He marshals the captives who put their faith in him, and leads them out of Hades and into His church! All this, done under the baleful eyes of those demonic jailers who are nothing more than imposters! The various gates of Hades are unlocked in Christ's name. But first, they must be identified. Space does not permit full identification and each generation is subjected to its own peculiar barriers. Today we have the gate of Secularism; the denial of transcendent, ineffable, supernatural reality. Secularism may inspire a thousand social works, calculated to relieve the prisoners' worst distresses and inequalities. It can tempt the church into aiding its efforts, thus reducing the church to no more than mere marching around the prison exercise yard. Another gate is that of Individualism. Today young are separated from old; the employed from the unemployed; the rural from the urban; the churched from the unchurched. Immense lonliness grips billions of busy city dwellers just as much as isolated pensioners. Social, corporate awareness has been eroded and the church is also afflicted. One person on Yahoo said that, as a single person, he stopped going to church because of the painful loneliness of worshipping with family groups. Individualism prevents the freedom of fellowship. Yet the church is to be Christ's body, each member playing its supportive part. (Rom. 12:5 1 Cor 12:25-26) Populism is the strongest and highest gate. It has defeated many in the church into believing that the church must be so like the world as to allay fears of a spiritual emphasis. Consensus views, people's opinions, political correctness - all must be embraced and catered for, with spiritual platitudes slipped in as unobtrusively as possible. How many churches have found this hellish gate closing in on them, and they have not used Jesus' strong name to defeat it? (Jn. 18:26) Jesus knew of no popularity in his lifetime, nor did he seek it. The saints are "strangers and pilgrims on the earth" and the world is not worthy of them (Heb. 11:13 & 13:13). That is what defeats this gate. Christ is yet building His church, no matter how insignificant it appears to those without faith.
