Minotaur
Born from a twisted union between Queen Pasiphae and a monstrous bull, it dwelled within the labyrinth, a suffocating maze designed by the ingenious yet cruel Daedalus. This wasn’t a beast of mere muscle – its head, a grotesque reflection of its sire, the bull, instilled fear with every snort and bellow. Its body, though powerful, was a horrifying mix of man and bull, a constant reminder of its unnatural origin.
Parents: Pasiphae and the Cretan Bull
Killed by: Theseus
Hunger gnawed at the Minotaur, a hunger for flesh, specifically the flesh of young men and women who were sacrificed to appease the beast’s insatiable appetite. Their screams echoed through the labyrinth’s twisting halls, a testament to the Minotaur’s reign of terror, until finally, the hero Theseus arrived, armed not just with weapons, but with cunning and a thread of hope, determined to end the Minotaur’s monstrous reign.
