Nyx

**Nyx** is a Primordial Goddess of the Night. She is also the mother of Hypnos and Thanatos and the grandmother of Morpheus.

She first appears in Episode 77, speaking to Hades while he is unconscious.

## Appearance

Nyx is a large deity with dark blue skin, hair, and massive feathered wings. She has five eyes in total, with two smaller eyes below her two 'normal' eyes, and one large eye on her forehead. All five eyes have black pupils and hot pink sclera. When she smiles, she reveals a row of jagged teeth.
She wears a dark indigo Greek-style dress with an armband on her right arm.
She is occasionally pictured wearing a veil over her head when visiting the mortal realm.

## Personality

Not is much is known about Nyx. After Hades said that he didn't mean to intrude where she resides, she wasn't fond of his flattery.

## Relationships

### **Children**

#### Thanatos

Nyx is Thanatos' mother. There is very little information about their relationship, as Nyx left him in Hades' care when Thanatos was a young child. Thanatos seemed to have no say in the matter. Despite Hades' protests, he would take care of Thanatos for some time.

It is unclear if he and Nyx stayed in contact afterwards, but as an adult, he was shown to be uncomfortable when the Titan Helios referred to her as a "spitfire."

### **Others**

#### Helios

Not much is known about their past relationship. In the present day, Helios asked her son if she is still a spitfire, implying some sort of close, flirtatious relationship between them.

#### Rhea

Nyx is only briefly seen beside Rhea, showing slight jealousy over her son Hades. As a fellow Titan, it can be assumed they got along.

#### Hades

Nyx appears to find Hades endearing. When Hades was a child, she was delighted over his world-weary personality and furrowed brow. She had the desire to steal him as her own, but restrained herself. It seems that she enjoys Hades' company, teasing him while he was unconscious in her "realm."

## Power and Abilities

* Nyx appears to be able to bring beings to the darkness where she resides in a dream-like state, and is able to wake them back up with a snap of her fingers. In addition, she is able to sense other beings around the sleeping forms of those who visit her, for example, she could tell that Hera had arrived to visit Hades despite being far away.

## Trivia

* Nyx's current whereabouts are unknown. Helios refers to her as if she is still active. Nyx refers to the realm she dwells in as "darkness," which could be the deeper parts of the underworld. However, it is unknown if the Nyx in this realm is real or a figment of Hades' dreams.
	+ During Episode 138, Nyx briefly appears watching Hades create "shooting stars" from afar. This seems to suggest Nyx does physically exist somewhere in the Underworld.
* In Greek mythology, Nyx was born of Chaos and married Erebos, the personification of darkness. It is thought that Nyx made Tartarus her home.
* All Episodes that Nyx appears in are Episode 77, Episode 109, and Episode 138
