Aphrodite :) -goddess of beauty.
Aphrodite is the goddess of love, beauty and sexual rapture. According to Hesiod, she was born when Uranus (the father of the gods). Cronus threw the severed genitals into the ocean which began to churn and foam about them. From the aphros sea foam arose Aphrodite, and the sea carried her to either Cyprus or Cythera.
After her birth, Zeus was afraid that the gods would fight over Aphrodite's hand in marriage so he married her off to the smith god Hephaestus, the steadiest of the gods. He could hardly believe his good luck and used all his skills to make the most finest jewels for her. He made her a bundle of finely wrought gold and wove magic into the work. That was not very wise of him, for when she wore her magic girdle no one could resist her, and she was all too irresistible already.
Aphrodite loved and was loved by many gods and mortals.
The goddess after rising from the foam first approached the island of Cythera, and then went to Cyprus, and as she was walking on the sea-coast flowers sprang up under her feet, and Eros and Himeros accompanied her to the assembly of the other great gods, all of who were struck with a daze and love when she appeared, and her beauty made every one desire to have her for his wife.
Strengths: sexual attractiveness, dazzling beauty. Appearance: Gorgeous, perfect, young woman with a beautiful body. Weaknesses: A bit stuck on herself, but if you had a body like hers who could blame her?-l0l
