## Background

In 1710 B.C, when Ouranos' genitals were cut by Cronos and thrown to the sea during the Rebel against Ouranos, Aphrodite emerged from the sea.

## Abilities

### Amokinesis

As the Goddess of Love, Lust, and Sexuality, Aphrodite has divine authority and absolute control over the emotions associated love and desire. She is able to arouse love and passion in others, entrancing any mortal or god she desires.. The only known deities who have at least partial immunity to this are the three Virgin Goddesses, which are Hestia, Athena and Artemis.

#### Charmspeak

Aphrodite's voice has a mesmerizing effect, capable of influencing the emotions of others in order to place them in her thrall. Her charmspeak is far more powerful than that of her children.

#### Personification of Desire

Aphrodite is the personification of all desire and fulfillment. She has divine authority and absolute control over craving of the attainable, physical appetite, emotional need, envious desire, and satisfaction of one's desire.

### Beauty

As the Goddess of Beauty, Aphrodite can change her appearance to perfectly fit the perception of beauty according to the person she is in the presence of. She is so breathtakingly beautiful that a normal mortal's jaw would have dropped and speechless for a couple of seconds after first seeing her. Her daughter Piper described Aphrodite as "elegant without trying, fashionable without effort, stunning without makeup."

#### Omnipotent Allure

Aphrodite can change her appearance to become the most physically attractive or sexually attractive body according to the person she in the presence of.

#### Biokinesis

Aphrodite can manipulate one's body to grant and/or enhance their beauty or make them ugly and undesirable. Her claiming enhances the beauty of her already gorgeous demigod children and removes their physical imperfecions, such as pimples. Aphrodite can turn others ugly.

#### Infallible Visual Acuity

Aphrodite possessed a level of microscopic-vision. She was able to see flaws in her makeup that mortals couldn't.

### Fertility Manipulation

Aphrodite can influence fertility in terms of reproduction. She can bless someone with high fertility, and curse others with infertility.

### French

Aphrodite has perfect fluency and understanding of French, as it is a language of love.

### Chlorokinesis

Aphrodite has control over flora (especially flowers), though not to the extent of Demeter and Dionysus. Magnificent flowers would blossom wherever she walked.

#### Plant Transformation

Aphrodite can turn anyone into anything related to flowers. She transformed the corpse of Adonis into blood-red roses and anemones.

### Photokinesis

Aphrodite has limited control over light, though not to the extent of Apollo.

#### Pyrokinesis

Aphrodite can generate pink explosions, which are destructive enough to instantly blast the ceiling of her palace to rubble.

#### Virtuakinesis

Aphrodite can create optical illusions. She created several illusions of people in need to try to distract Psyche.

### Nephelokinesis

Aphrodite can float on a small white cloud. She used this ability while helping Piper fight Periboia.

### Control of Animals

Aphrodite has a high level of control over her sacred animals, particularly the dove. In *The Blood of Olympus*, she summoned doves to rise up from nowhere and flutter into Periboia's face whenever the Giantess tried to strike.

### Life Creation

Aphrodite has demonstrated the ability to manipulate reality itself to a considerable extent. She was able to make Pygmalion's beautiful ivory statue come to life.

### Teleportation

Aphrodite summoned a rosewood box for Psyche instantly.

### Astral Projection

She was able to communicate through a magical image of her face in a doorway.

### Beauty Inducement

She could also cause others to become beautiful.

### Immortality

Aphrodite is an immortal, as she cannot die through natural causes or weapons that can easily kill a mortal. Only other gods, divine weapons or other immortals, can probably harm her.

### Amokinesis

Aphrodite attracts both men and women naturally through her presence and/or by her will.

### Love Inducement

Aphrodite could cause other beings to fall in love with one another.

### Power Bestowal

Aphrodite granted Kratos the ability to wield Medusa's gaze.

### Shapeshifting

A small alteration to her appearance is that Aphrodite sometimes has auburn hair, rather than the blond hair, implying that she too can alter her appearance.

### Telepathy

Aphrodite was able to perceive Kratos' mind when he encountered her. None of the other Olympians displayed this ability like she did. This implies that, as she is the Goddess who oversees strong emotions such as love, this allows her to see into people's minds.

### Weaknesses

As the goddess of beauty, she is a bit stuck on herself, but with a perfect face, who can blame her for that?

## Olympian's Crown

## Trivia

* According to the Roman historian Livy, Aphrodite and Venus were officially identified in the third century BC when the cult of Venus Erycina was introduced to Rome from the Greek sanctuary of Aphrodite on Mount Eryx in Sicily. After this point, Romans adopted Aphrodite's iconography and myths and applied them to Venus.
* Her Roman name, Venus, is the name of the second planet of the Solar System, following Mercury and followed by Earth.
* Venus, the third brightest object after the Sun and Moon, was named after the Roman goddess of love and beauty. It's the only planet named after a female god.
* Based on The Planets Suite Op. 32 composed by Gustav Holst, Aphrodite's Roman name Venus is the second movement and is named as the Bringer of Peace.
