Meet the Gods (and Mortals) of Hades: A Character Guide

Hades, the roguelike dungeon crawler by Supergiant Games, isn't just about frantic combat and a killer soundtrack; it's also about the unforgettable characters you meet on your journey through the Underworld. From helpful Olympians to grumpy shades, each figure adds depth and charm to the experience.

Of course, there's Zagreus, the defiant son of Hades, determined to escape his father's realm. He's the heart of the story. Then there are the Olympian Gods, offering boons that drastically alter your playstyle. Think Zeus' lightning strikes or Poseidon's wave surges – powerful allies indeed!

But don't forget the residents of the House of Hades! Achilles, the legendary warrior, provides guidance and friendship. Nyx, the goddess of night, is a mother figure offering cryptic advice. And Cerberus? Well, he's just a very good boy who loves head scratches.

Even the bosses are memorable! From the Fury sisters to Hades himself, each encounter is infused with personality and lore. So, who's *your* favorite character in Hades? Let us know in the comments!
