ScyllaCrataeis2.0115

Scylla, a playable character in SMITE: Battleground of the Gods, a multiplayer online battle arena game, Titan Forge Games (Hi-Rez Studios)

A formidible monstrosity, garbed as a female child, with a wickedly demonic laugh: "I don't sink ships on purpose! I'm just trying to eat the crew ...". (Scylla, taunts her opponents within the game)

"Poets have tried to romanticize this beast, to provide some humanity to her monstrosity. They write she was once a beautiful Naiad, wronged by a jealous priestess and transformed. Yet the old poems say she was born this way, beget [sic] by gods full of jealousy and loathing; dropped into the sea to terrorize mankind.
Would that she had remained in the sea, but the nightmare has come ashore. Dragged by dog-headed tentacles she roams our streets, plucks us from our beds, and fills the night with disturbing laughter. Scylla has come, and not even the gods can help us." (Smite's lore text)
