Arcadia Panoptes

Art by Taleart

### My "Magic" Touch

I assume that you're referring to my eyes, yes? At least one of them is always open, so almost no detail can ever escape me.

### Oh "Gods!" Moments

According to some, I can be a bit "intense".

### Best Friends Immortally Forever After

,

**Arcadia Panoptes** [she/her] is a 2020-introduced and all-around character. She is the daughter of Ἄργος Πανόπτης (Argus Panoptes) from Greek Mythology. Although she is a staunch **Rebel**, she considered it best it finish her education at Ever After High.

## Character

### Personality

How do they act? How are they perceived and what are their intentions?

People often create subheadings for interests/hobbies and other potentially relevant topics, like their opinion on destiny.

### Hobbies and Interests

*Cinemythography*

* Arcadia is an amateur documentarian who has been using her talents to further the Rebel cause as of late.

*Debate*

*Philosophy*

* She has a fascination with the subject, in particular, discussions of the ethics of discipline and surveillance. She's noted for her distinct antiauthoritarian flare which some consider hypocritical due to the way she *controls* her film exploits.

### Appearance

Arcadia is a very tall young woman with long brown hair, olive skin, and striking blue-green eyes which cover the left side of her face, winding down her neck and the rest of her body. She often uses a dark wood cane to walk due to having very limited mobility on the left side of her body.

## Myth - Io & Zeus

### How Does Myth Goes?

Argus was Hera's servant. His great service to the Olympian pantheon was to slay the chthonic serpent-legged monster Echidna as she slept in her cave. Hera's defining task for Argus was to guard the white heifer Io from Zeus, charging him to "Tether this cow safely to an olive-tree at Nemea". Hera knew that the heifer was in reality Io, one of the many nymphs Zeus was coupling with to establish a new order. To free Io, he had Argus slain by Hermes. The messenger of the Olympian gods, disguised as a shepherd, first put all of Argus' eyes asleep with spoken charms, then slew him by hitting him with a stone, the first stain of bloodshed among the new generation of gods. After beheading Argus, Hermes acquired the epithet Argeiphontes or “Argus-slayer”.

The sacrifice of Argus liberated Io and allowed her to wander the earth, although tormented by a gadfly sent by Hera, until she reached the Ionian Sea, from where she swam to Egypt and gave birth to a love child of Zeus, according to some versions of the myth.

According to Ovid, to commemorate her faithful watchman, Hera had the hundred eyes of Argus preserved forever, in a peacock's tail.[1]

### How Does Arcadia Come Into It?

How do they come into it? What happened after their parents completed destiny?

Backstory is usually noted here.

### Viewpoint on Destiny

She finds the idea of essentially being the watchman for a kidnapped woman entirely unethical and repulsive.

## Relationships

### Family

Describe the relationship your character has with their family. You can use subheadings if you want.

### Friends

Who do they like to hang out with? Why? If you've given any of your character's relationships ship names this can be a good place to note them.

### Pet

During the Animal Calling, she summoned Agnès, a large moth covered in eyespots who is often found perched upon Arcadia's shoulder, intently watching the situations around her unfold. She is generally somewhat aloof with strangers, but can be very affectionate with people she likes.

### Romance

Are they dating? Do they have any romantic interests? Again, this is a good place to note ship names, if you have them.

### Enemies

Are there people your character doesn't get along with? Why?
