Aphrodite

From Legendary Journeys

"I thought you guys were extinct!

- Aphrodite on virgins, in "Many Happy Returns"

Aphrodite, Goddess of Love is a reccuring character on Xena: Warrior Princess and Hercules: The Legendary Journeys. She is first portrayed as being spiteful andselfish.She was very immature at times, as shown with her fueds with Discord and her son, Cupid.

But as her character is deepened, we learn that she can have a soft spot for people and care for others. For example, her clear respect and love for her brother, Ares and her friendship with Gabrielle. She even stood up against Athena to protect Gabrielle, during the Twilight of the Gods.

Aphrodite was played by Alexandra Tydings.
