Introduction
Adonis (c!Gloomy), is a minor god that wanders the Earth. With no true domain to rule over, she floats from one place to another, carrying a staff with a hanging lantern lit by the butterflies within it. The Yellow Butterfly is a symbol of Adonis, said to guide the lost to her. In some variations, she is seen to be followed by birds rather than butterflies, however, in all variations the lantern is always lit by butterflies. Adonis has no definite gender and is often referred to with all pronouns. The minor god has tall, thin, demon like horns, and is often associated with goats because of her having goat legs, much like a satyr. She has pink hair and pink skin, and is able to control how fast her hair grows, allowing her to cut it and style it however she wants at any time. The staff she holds has been her only possession since creation, given to her by her mother, Mead.

The court of butterflies that follow the god are seen as a symbol of dreams, mortal desires and hope. The god is often depicted wearing simple mortal clothes as well as living amongst them, representing his humility. The butterflies are said to be the spirits of the many lost children that were lured away by Gloomy, who in guided them to a better life as her servants. Gloomy's appearance also varies a lot depending on the ancient depictions of them. The most common depiction has them with boyishly short strawberry pink hair, however, the farther back you look, the more commonly it is to find her with long hair. She is assumed to have powers to change her hair length at will, and sometimes even her appearance, which is a skill often reserved for major gods.

Siring New Gods
Adonis is only known to have sired one god, Ă̵̧̡̧̛͍̤͇͕̩̯͚̳̻̭̊̀̂͗ͅl̵̗̗̦̯̦̫̙͌̈̒̒̉ṱ̴̳͇̙̤͔̖̭̝͑̾̈̾̇̇̅̑͝ë̵̛̛̖̟͉́͋̈́͂̇̈͋̊͝͝ͅr̵̳̯͎͓̬̩̊̇͛̃͗̽̊̇̌͐ͅ, or more commonly known as The Dreamwalker. Ă̵̧̡̧̛͍̤͇͕̩̯͚̳̻̭̊̀̂͗ͅl̵̗̗̦̯̦̫̙͌̈̒̒̉ṱ̴̳͇̙̤͔̖̭̝͑̾̈̾̇̇̅̑͝ë̵̛̛̖̟͉́͋̈́͂̇̈͋̊͝͝ͅr̵̳̯͎͓̬̩̊̇͛̃͗̽̊̇̌͐ͅ was neither alive or dead and was simply an entity that travelled through dreams, with no physical form to anchor them, they were an incredibly unstable force. . When she met the Dreamwalker, she was so impressed by their ambition that she guided them to drink all the burning rivers of the underworld so that she could become immortal. The Dreamwalker still owes Adonis for her assistance. Adonis sired the Dreamwalker, into a god when they drank the burning rivers of the underworld. The Dreamwalker is their own category of divinity, but the drinking of the rivers allowed them to become more stable and puts them under the category of a god. Upon drinking the river Lethe, all known records or memories of the Dreamwalker's name was erased. Therefore Adonis names them after the river, Lethe. The two are allies and on good terms.

Early Life
Adonis is the youngest of the named gods and true deities, having been born after both the God Genocide of the Old Pantheon, as well as the Witch War. She is biologically the daughter of Mead, the Galaxy, and cousin to the much older King of the Underworld and the god of Death, Ambrose. Upon being born, Adonis was gifted her staff from Mead, and was sent to the underworld palace to be placed under Ambrose's care. Ambrose delegated spirits to look after and foster Adonis as she lived within the undead palace.
