Oizys

Oizys is a Greek goddess, the daughter of Nyx. She is the goddess of misery and anxiety, and she has no demigod children.

**Series**

Oizys is featured in the following series:

* Demigod Quest

**Early Life**

Not much is known about Oizys's early life. At some point she became friends with Pasithea and the two began plotting to kill demigods and mortals by driving them into insanity and suicide, later intentionally plotting to kill Jackson Stevens.

**Demigod Quest**

Demigod Quest #1, Immortal Secrets: Oizys sent Jackson a note saying "You know what you did. Oizys" and she is mentioned by Andy to be the goddess of depression. Jackson knows Oizys is mad that he tried to kill himself but was stopped and he didn't go back and do it again.

Demigod Quest #2, The Son of Fire: Andy tells Jackson that he needs to deal with Oizys.

Demigod Quest #3, The Fountain of Souls: Oizys is mentioned a few times in conversations on how Jackson needs to talk with her if he is going to get rid of his depression. Later, Ben thinks that Pasithea is Oizys and mentions her. Pasithea mentions that she and Oizys had a deal where the two would work together in a competition to see who could make Jackson kill himself first and says that while she will leave Jackson and Ben alone, Oizys will not quit so easily. Jackson and Hal discuss Jackson's depression and Oizys. She shows up and starts trying to force Jackson to want to commit suicide in the caves of the Fountain of Youth. She tells Jackson to kill himself and convinces him to slit his wrists, then walk to the edge of the cliff. He jumps to his death, but shifts reality at the last second and appears back to safety, no longer wanting to kill himself. Oizys realizes he has overpowered her and he uses his star force, vaporizing Oizys and temporarily killing her, implying she would be gone around ten years. He later tells Ben that he killed Oizys.

Demigod Quest #4, The Tangled Web: Oizys is mentioned on several occasions in reference to The Fountain of Souls and how Jackson still suffers from depression, but nowhere near as severely.

Demigod Quest #5, Olympus Rising: Oizys is mentioned a few times in an explanation of how she and Pasithea made Jackson hallucinate and want to commit suicide, and then he killed Oizys in The Fountain of Souls.

**Personality**

Oizys is an incredibly determined and motivated individual who seeks power and wants to kill anyone who opposes her or offends her by not fulfilling their initial plan to commit suicide--she considers it the loss of a sacrifice.

**Appearance**

Oizys is described as having long, straight black hair, black eyes, and a tear-streaked face. Her wrists are scarred and are covered in dripping red blood, which is not her actual blood. She wears a midnight blue gown with silver and black details.

**Trivia**

* She intentionally went after Jackson Stevens as soon as he showed signs of depression because the Godslayer can only be killed by an accident, the Fates deciding it was his time, and by suicide.
* She was killed by Jackson Stevens using the godly "Star Force" and was banished to Tartarus for ten years or so because of this.
