Aphrodites

3D Model

Aphrodite is the Goddess of Love on both Xena and Hercules. Aphrodite inspires love and passionate desire in humankind while her brother Ares, her antithesis, promotes warfare and conflict. Despite this conflict of values, Ares and Aphrodite are siblings and allies. Aphrodite is portrayed as a modern-day Greek Goddess, with somewhat of a dumb blonde and usually vain persona. She is essentially good-natured and helpful; she is close friends with Gabrielle because of that. Nearly all of Aphrodite’s attire resembles lingerie, and she is nearly always barefoot. She romances Hephaestus, but unlike the myths, their relationship is essentially a happy one.
