Personality
Aphrodite is the Greek Goddess of love, beauty, and sexuality. Proclaimed as one of the most beautiful of all the goddesses, she proudly and unshamefully attracts the attention of men and gods alike. She loves passionately and exhibits the very essence of a woman's sexuality.
She tends to do her own thing and avoids meddling too much with the political views and arguments of the other Olympian gods. She doesn't interfere much with the war that is happening, but has become concerned for her children both on Olympus and Earth who must/will take part in it.
She's a loving mother, a passionate lover, and a stylistic diva all around. Though, she can be a bit vain, ill-tempered, and is easily offended.
History
Aphrodite never had a childhood. She was born from the blood that fell from Uranus when his son Cronus castrated him and threw his genitals into the sea. There, Aphrodite rose from the sea-foam, to which she got her name, fully grown, and beautiful. She soon gives birth to Cupid and the Erotes afterwards. And She later then joins the other gods on Mount Olympus were she is given as a bride to Zeus's son Hephaestus, a black-smith god.
Unhappy with her marriage to the deformed god of Iron, Aphrodite frequently seeked companionship from others, mostly from the god of war, Ares, to whom she had many children with including: Harmonia, John Smith (Alkaios), Phobos, and Deimos.
She also had several affairs with mortal men, giving birth to demi-gods such as Enryx and Aeneas.

Below are a list of characters that Aphrodite is currently in contact/associated with.
Eros:
- Eros is Aphrodite's beloved first born. She's highly protective of him, which she showed when Eros fell in love with the beutiful mortal Psyche.

- Hope is Aphrodite's daughter with Hades. Aphrodite didn't get a chance to be apart of Hope's life for long. Fearing what Hephaestus might do and what he has tried before on some of her other children, she sent Harmonia to hide Hope away on Earth, where she could be safe until she was strong enough to come back to Olympus and join her. But Hephaestus soon discovered Hope's whereabouts two years later and had his mother, Hera, stripped half of the child's immortality making her a demi-god, forever forbidden to enter Olympus. Aphrodite weeped for her daughter but ordered Harmonia to keep a close eye on the babe as she grew.

Aphrodite with Mulan

- Ares and Hephaestus:
- Ares is the God of War, and Aphrodite's one true love (even though she has many other affairs on the side). And Hephaestus is her deformed husband who is a blacksmith god. Aphrodite never cared too much for him, but feared his wrath upon her children.
