Aphrodite

Aphrodite The Goddess of Love and Beauty; Daughter of Zeus

Aphrodite is a minor character who first appeared in the third episode of Blood of Zeus. She is one of the gods who sided with Hera during the Greek gods' civil war against her father Zeus.

Personality Not much is known about Aphrodite's personality except that she is very loyal to her stepmother Hera. Like the other Olympians, she honors the laws of their Pantheon, which was shown when Zeus prepares to save his lover Electra from demons. She, along with Hera and other gods, came to remind him of their laws, even if it meant stopping him by force.

After Hera declared the Greek gods' civil war against Zeus, Aphrodite was one of the gods who sided with her.

She also has a calf-length cape, which is shown to be pastel purple.

Her Powers and Abilities Powers Olympian Deity Physiology: Aphrodite possesses the conventional superhuman physical attributes of an Olympian goddess. Immortality: Like all of the Greek gods, Aphrodite seems ageless, or at least long-lived. Aerokinesis: During the battle for the Eleusinian Stone, Aphrodite is seen summoning a tornado and directing it towards Hermes to prevent him from delivering the stone to Athena. Abilities Seduction Mastery: As the goddess of love and beauty, Aphrodite is a master at drawing out the lusts of anyone, especially of men, allowing her to attract anyone, either mortal or god, that she desires. Equipment Sword: The sword seems to be Aphrodite's weapon of choice in combat, as was shown when she prepared to attack Zeus. Trivia Ordinarily, Aphrodite is portrayed having been born from seafoam after the blood (or genitals) of Uranus was cast into the sea. Otherwise, she has occasionally been depicted as a daughter of Zeus and Dione. In the mythology, Aphrodite was married off to Hephaestus by Zeus in order to prevent petty squabbling over her amongst the pantheon. Hephaestus was chosen because Zeus knew the male gods would not be as jealous over him as they would someone else. Aphrodite found her marriage to be an embarrassment and so cheated on Hephaestus many times, often with Ares, with whom she had many children, such as Phobos, Deimos, Harmonia, Eros, and Adrestia. In Blood of Zeus, there is no indication as to whether or not Aphrodite or Hephaestus are married at all, as Aphrodite is often seen with Ares and Hephaestus has made no signs of being married to her though he did sacrifice himself to save her from being killed by Typhon, indicating he'd cared about her.
