Hades: .......not even gonna bother to explain. If you don't know HADES by now, then, well, thats just sad. XDD
Little Known Fact: Thanks to Zeus and Poseidon, Hades used to have an extreme, extreme case of hydrophobia in which he wouldn't even go NEAR any source of water under any circumstance....Persephone eventually got him over it by forcing him to learn teaching him how to swim.

Medusa: Snake-haired monster gal that turns people to stone with a look. Understandably, she's a little insecure about her appearance.
Little Known Fact: Her first date was with Hercules. Don't worry, she wore sunglasses to nix the whole turn-to-stone problem.

Demeter: Goddess of plants and mother to Persephone, as well as one of the original six Olympians.
Little Known Fact: Demeter's obsessiveness towards her daughter may be carefully traced back to her childhood years; when Cronus swallowed her, he swallowed her with her doll (named Kore, Greek for 'girl') and she became extremely attatched to it....her siblings were all insane and she clung to the doll like it would run away, which she was geniunely scared of. When Persephone was born, the same fears resurfaced and she became the overprotective mother from hell she had been as a little girl with Kore.
((phew, that was a long one >.<))

Yikes. Seems like everyone in Greek Mythology's got problems.
Cassandra: Prophetess and Herc's best friend who is a girl but not a girlfriend, and would rather forsee herself and Icarus getting married if he were to ask her out.
Little Known Fact: Cassandra had a serious speech impediment - a lateral lisp, to be exact - when she was a preschooler. She ironed it out later.

Leuce: Nymph, daughter of Oceanus.....ex-girlfriend of Hades. >>
Little Known Fact: Leuce had been in a relationship with Hades a long, long time ago, and when she resurfaced years later, Persephone had come into the picture. Turns out the nymph was mentally unstable (we call it Menthe Syndrome; she was severely, severely obsessed with Hades ;] ) and her current residence is in Persephone's garden as a white poplar tree, right next to a little former nymph mint plant.
