Charybdis Joins SMITE As The Newest Hunter Goddess, Perilous Seas Odyssey Event Now In Full Swing

The Ceaseless Whirpool Goddess, Charybdis, has officially joined SMITE as the newest hunter in the free-to-play multiplayer online battle arena. As we reported earlier this month, Charybdis is the daughter of Poseidon and the soul sister of Scylla, the Horror of the Sea. She wields a monstrous being called The Maw and can disappear inside enormous whirlpools, control the tides, and tap into their power.

“Charybdis may look like a child, yet under her guise lurks an ever-hungry creature replacing her arm – the Maw. It is her main weapon in battle.

In Greek mythology, Zeus once transformed Charybdis into a monster and chained her to the sea bed opposite the similarly cursed Scylla. Both became sisters in spirit – and in gameplay.”

Along with Charybis comes the start of a new Odyssey event called Perilous Seas which will take players on an epic voyage across the perilous Strait of Messina where they’ll face against the united sisters Charybdis and Scylla. The event will also give players the chance to earn various rewards and unlock dozens of skins until early 2022.
