[sup] [color=#e9d66b][i]Has it ever crossed one's mind as to why dogs bark at nothing at night and shadows seem to move on their own?[/i][/COLOR]

There once was a secretive group among the Grecians who believed they knew. They held the answers in their beliefs that it was Melinoë, [abbr=alleged]daughter[/abbr] of Hades, who wandered the earth, flanked by a retinue of ghosts from the Underworld. Spirits, once wronged by the living, seeking vengeance by spreading fear and madness. Melinoë was not universally feared, however. There are those - the ones who believe in the whispers floating along through the dead of night, accompanied by the cries of dogs - that held onto the thought that she had a kindly side to her. One that was focused on righting wrongs. On justice. [i]At least for those that followed her.[/i]

Daughter of the King & Queen of the Underworld it should come as no surprise that her presence would discomfort others - however it seemed to be more than just her title that caused the hairs on the backs of one's neck to stand at attention. Melinoë was graced with the responsibility of presiding over [abbr=the act of appeasing or appealing to the spirits of the dead]propitiation[/abbr] and bringing justice to the wronged dead - recruiting those restless spirits to her entourage that wander the land of the living forever. It was believed in those days that by offering libations, visiting graves, and otherwise honoring their dead, they would be protected from harmful spirits. Melinoë would then collect those offerings and carry them to the Underworld for the spirits there to enjoy. It was in those moments when propitiation was [i]not[/i] completed that she brought madness upon them.

Even when going unseen, she caused uneasiness and fear. 

Melinoë lived as comfortably as one could in the Underworld. Surrounded by all that gave her some spark of joy. Her responsibilities gave her a sense of purpose. A way to pull her weight. A way to shine and outperform the "blessedness" of her sister. The shining flame amongst the bitter whispers of cold in the dark. Who would choose madness over the blessed? Make no mistake, Melinoë did not hate her sister, though her jealousy to be as revered as she sowed seeds of dislike and distance. Her brother, Zagreus, however, he was one of the few - if not only one - she showed her truest self to. At least for a time. Before he was tricked and taken from her. When her beloved brother returned home she was overjoyed though she knew he was not the same. Would [i]never[/i] be the same... A seething hatred for Hera long since brewing deep within her would be let loose upon the mortal plane.

[sup]After the awakening - after the war - Melinoë found herself among the others, disoriented, angry, elated. [color=#e9d66b][i]Lost.[/i][/color]

She became that which she had been bound to and responsible for. A lost soul, with no proper burial. No rites given. A lost soul hellbent on administering the justice she and all the others deserved. A fire lit within her belly that night, as she stood beneath the star littered sky, like millions of tiny candle flames winking as if they knew her inner most thoughts. It was beautiful. Truly a start to her new endeavor. Her new beginning. A new life.

Melinoë wandered the earth, as far as her chains would allow. A petulant child, what she was referred to on numerous occasions by the "mighty ones". No more petulant than their own leaders. She first went to her brother, as their sister could not be found. Melinoë wondered if something more sinister took her from them... she sincerely hoped not. Especially since there was no way for them to reconnect should that be the case. She could see the delight spreading throughout Zagreus at the prospect of being unbound to his prison cell. So much so she wished she could join in. For the time, she was elated to just have him there with her. A solid foundation for her to rely on.

It took some time getting used to not having responsibilities like what she was used to. It still, to this day, is like a phantom limb - Melinoë finds herself a creature of the night. Constantly up at all hours, walking through streets or parks, sitting atop roofs and just overlooking the lands she currently occupies. Dogs still bark when she is near and madness follows her like a shadow, stretching out it's tendrils to constrict those it comes in contact with.

Fighting for the justice of others who had been dealt a shitty hand came quite easy to the Bringer of Nightmares; easier than she initially thought in this new life of hers. With that in mind she sought out to create a name for herself in helping those who were less fortunate and lost - like herself. To spread the madness and fear with a clear purpose and goal. [color=#e9d66b]Spectre[/color] was born in those few years after waking. Investigating crimes against mortals and gods alike. Brandishing her own form of punishment on all those that were found guilty in her eyes. Regardless of her appearance and age, Melinoë's track record speaks for themselves. It also helps that a lot of the clientele she's garnered wouldn't [i]dare[/i] speak out against her even if they wanted. Is it all completely ethical? Probably not. Does she care? [color=#e9d66b][i]Not one bit.[/i][/color]
