Callisto

Callisto is a Persona in the series.
==History==
Callisto, or Kallisto, was the nymph daughter of King Lycaon, that served under the hunter goddess Artemis, along with sometimes being her best friend. In myth, Callisto had vowed to remain a virgin, but Zeus disguised himself as Artemis, invited her to an embrace and proceeded to force himself on Callisto and then rape her, while she was separated from Artemis and the other nymphs. Callisto's subsequent pregnancy was discovered several months later while she was bathing with Artemis and her fellow nymphs. Artemis became enraged when she saw that Callisto was pregnant and expelled her from the group.
Callisto later gave birth to Arcas. Hera then took the opportunity to avenge her wounded pride and transformed the nymph into a bear (though some depictions changes it to Artemis). Either Artemis "slew Callisto with a shot of her silver bow," perhaps urged by the wrath of Hera or later Arcas, nearly killed his bear-mother, when she had wandered into the forbidden precinct of Zeus. In every case, Zeus placed them both in the sky as the constellations Ursa Major, called Arktos (αρκτος), the "Bear", by Greeks, and Ursa Minor.
