Aphrodite is the Olympian Goddess of love and beauty. She offers boons to Zagreus that inflict her signature Status Curse, Weak, or make enemies more susceptible to damage.
Aphrodite boons not only increase your damage, but also your survivability, making enemy attacks less effective as you fight them. Due to Weak effects being easy to inflict, Aphrodite also enables synergy with the Mirror of Night Upgrade, Privileged Status.
Her signature Status Curse is Weak, which reduces the damage afflicted enemies do by 50%, halving their damage. Aphrodite also offers boons which increase the effectiveness of her Status Curse itself, such as Empty Inside (which increases the effect's duration).
Aphrodite is one of three Olympian gods (the other two being Artemis and Zeus) who will not appear in the very first run of a save.
