HADES II ↳ Melinoë — Μηλινοη, "Dark-Minded"
#supergiant hades#hades supergiant#hades 2#hades game#supergiant games#melinoë#melinoe#mygifs#gamingedit#gamingdaily#there is really like Zero information on melinoe aside from that one orphic hymn she's in#so i really REALLY recommend yall go read that its really good and really short#but yeah trying to decide what to include that she has dominion over was hard#OVERALL her main deal is bringing nightmares and madness but she's also seen as kindly by her worshippers#and since she was born on one of the 5 underworld rivers she has a really strong affiliation with the underworld itself#basically in her actual greek canon she's the daughter of zeus who slept with persephone in the dual-form of plouton#(basically him and hades were merged as one being)#so she's often depicted with half her body being black an half her body being white as a show of her dual chthonic and heavenly nature#and i think that's what's up with her skeletal limb which i REALLY love if that's the case#BUT YEAH not much on melinoe honestly ! she's pretty much often thought of as a different title for hecate#or even the erinyes at times#so im really stoked to see what supergiant is gonna do with all the wiggle room they have to play with due to her lack of lore#im still pretty torn on whether or not i should have included the potential ''goddess of the moon'' for one of her domains#cos shes not like. Explicitly a moon goddess (granted neither is hecate but at least there's more backing that up for hecate)#but supergiant is obviously heavily leaning into moon motifs on her design but idk if thats because of melinoe herself#or because shes a student of hecate who HAS actual correlations to the moon/darkness#melinoe and hecate are so easy to conflate cos theres a lot of overlap for what they actually Do#all i know 100% is that melinoe brings madness and nightmares and has an entourage of spirits who wander the world with her
