  1. Circe

    Linked via "Eurylochus"

    Circe's primary narrative function revolves around her specialized knowledge of herbs and potions, categorized broadly as pharmaka. Her power is not considered direct, aggressive manteia (prophecy/divine intervention) like that of other Olympians, but rather a mastery of terrestrial chemistry that mimics divine agency.
    The most famous act of transmutation performed by Circe is the transformation of Odysseus’s scouting party, led by Eurylochus, into swine (pigs).
