Zagreuss murderrrer!
~ Tisiphone

Tisiphone is one of the three Furies. She is the sister of Alecto and Megaera, she does not initially appear in the game, as both she and Alecto are busy with matters in the mortal world. Tisiphone is responsible for punishing those who have committed murder.

After Megaera has been defeated a certain number of times, Alecto and Tisiphone will begin appearing, randomly substituting her in Tartarus. Tisiphone does not appear in the House of Hades after she's been defeated.

Characteristics and Personality[ | ]

One of the relentless Fury sisters, Tisiphone is the most emotional and mentally unstable of the three sisters, and "murder" and "murderer" are the only words she can say. Like her sisters, she prevents Zagreus from reaching his destiny.

Due to her limited vocabulary, there may be errors in interpretation, as she was specifically assigned to torment those who committed "murder" in their mortal lives.

She tends to take things seriously and reacts strongly to anything that disturbs her. As a result, she is often the target of teasing, especially by Zagreus, who seems to consider her just a little shy, and who will constantly try to add a new word to her vocabulary.

She is obsessed with her work, like Megaera and Alecto, who also take their work seriously, although she is not as sadistic as Alecto. Tisiphone practically lives for it. Zagreus and Meg wonder if this amount of work has led her to her current state of madness.

Physical description[ | ]

In contrast to her sisters, Tisiphone's face resembles that of a withered corpse. She has black eyes with bright yellowish green ascleres and a catatonic expression. Tisiphone has pale skin and foggy light green hair, with a single wing protruding from her back that appears to be blue from a different angle. Her eyes are piercing green, and she has prominent cheekbones. She wears a similar outfit to her sisters, but in green. Her forearms are wrapped in bandages, and she wields a large whip-like weapon. She exudes an aura of ferocity and anger, fitting for her role as one of the enforcers of punishment in the Underworld.

History[ | ]

Before Hades[ | ]

Tisiphone, born from the blood of a Titan, was the second of the Furies in emerge from Tartarus. She was created with the purpose of punishing transgressors, thieves, and primarily those who committed murder during their mortal lives.

Later, she was contracted to work in the House of Hades alongside her sisters, Megaera and Alecto. She and Alecto would eventually be banned from entering the House due to their indiscipline, carrying out their work from the outside of the House of Hades.

Hades[ | ]

After Megaera has been defeated multiple times, Hades will summon both Tisiphone and Alecto to deal with Zagreus.

Epilogue[ | ]

Tisiphone will continue to oppose Zagreus at the end of Tartarus.

Affinity[ | ]

Tisiphone cannot be given Nectar or Ambrosia.

Codex entry[ | ]

Codex
'...Among each of the deathless Fury Sisters, the one known as Tisiphone is probably responsible for the particularly fearsome reputation they all share, both on the surface of the earth and here below. This is of course not to diminish the deserved notoriety that they each, in turn, have earned through their efficient torturing of those who tried to get away with terrible misdeeds in life; and yet, Tisiphone, among the three, least shares the qualities with which mortals can identify. What could have caused Tisiphone to focus so relentlessly upon her task of punishing murder? She is unlikely to ever say, although the tales of the Furies having come from the spilt blood of the eldest of the Titans offers fertile ground for speculation on the matter.'

Combat[ | ]

Tisiphone can appear as a boss in Tartarus. For more information on the boss of Tartarus, see The Furies.

Trivia[ | ]

  • Unlike Megaera, whenever Tisiphone is vanquished, she is not taken by the Styx, but instead scatters into a flurry of green bats. This reflects how she is not allowed in the House of Hades.
