Calliope

Calliope is one of the many characters in the game Stray Gods. She is an Idol and a Muse. Calliope is voiced by Ashley Johnson.
== Background ==
Calliope was one of the three Muses who were once close companions to Apollo. Eventually she became the last living Muse and drifted apart from Apollo.
After years of arguing with the other Idols because she thought they had “lost their way,” Calliope decided to leave Olympus. She befriended Persephone, who gave her an apartment. The two became romantically involved. However, Persephone grew tired of Calliope’s lectures, and they did not speak for two years before the events of Stray Gods.
== The Night of the Murder ==
Having received warning from Apollo about his prophecy that "The Idols cannot continue as long as the Last Muse lives," Calliope was conflicted over whether she should go to the Reliquary or flee. Then she happened to hear Grace in the auditorium and joined her in singing "Adrift." Afterward, Calliope followed Grace home to find out where she lived, just in case she should have to pass on her eidolon.
Calliope ultimately decided to go to the Reliquary. She planned to use Nyx's mirror to contact the Fates and implore them to annul the prophecy. In order to get in, she went to Pan for a key, which is how Athena found out about her plan—Pan told Medusa where Calliope was going.
After a visit to see Aphrodite and Eros, Calliope made her way into the Reliquary. But before she could use the mirror, the Furies appeared and attacked her. Calliope ran away bleeding. Both Asterion and Medusa tried to chase her, but they lost her in the fog. She fled to Grace's apartment just in time to pass on her eidolon.
