Athine: Daughter of Ares
Name: Athine Daughter of Ares
Hair
Color: Red with raven
streaks
Eye Color: Deep Green
Height: Smaller than a castle, but bigger than
a breadbox.
Lineage: Granddaughter of Odin, Morrigan, Zeus, and
Nike. Daughter of Raelin and Ares. Mother to Isis. She has a half-sister named Harmonia.
Skills: Master of many weapons and a special magic
called Sh’cersay. Her weapons often have
names and sometimes possess either a sentient being or magical abilities of
their own. Through her studies of the N’Loron,
she has learned how to use her magic to heal, destroy, and control the very
weather of her realm.
Personality: She is very strong willed and hates being
thought of as “incapable” or the “underdog”.
She usually surprises her foes with just how much power she can command,
even her own grandfather Zeus has been taken aback by her powers. She is loyal and has a strong sense of duty
to the realm and its people. At one
point she was even ready to lay down her life to make the N’Loron stronger. She also has a very short temper true to both
of her parent’s lineage. She is nothing
short of an iron clad ruler.
Love Life: Like a good leader, her love life is
often very secret and shrouded in shadows.
We do know that she has had at least one torrid affair with the father
of her daughter Isis. His name is
mentioned to be Licenth and he is from
the underwater realm of Sundirrasya.
Enemies: Nikeda is her mortal enemy and she will
not rest until she is able to permanently destroy her.

About the Author:
My name is Shannon McRoberts. I am an independent artist, author, and poet. I have been self-publishing books of all kinds since 2005. My first book was a poetry book called Poetry for the Chronically Heart Broken and Depressed. That book has since been replaced with a more robust collection called Erosion of the Heart. I am currently working on bringing this book to paper format and expanded distribution through Smashwords.
My first ever sci-fi book, The Secret of Genetic Corp X, has been compared to Blade Runner. I am also currently working on having this book brought back to a paper edition.
My favorite series, The Daughter of Ares Chronicles, features Athine, an immortal born goddess that I created for the series. In this series, I take mythologies of all kinds and turn them on their ears!
When I am not working or creating fantasy worlds for my characters to live in I enjoy being lost in MMORPGs, good books, and in the company of my friends and family.
I currently live in Kentucky with my wonderful husband and beautiful daughter.
