Circe
Circe is not confirmed as a character in Hades. This record is retained as an unverified entity entry and should not be confused with material from other games or Greek mythology.
Key Takeaways
Continuity note
Circe is not a character in the original Hades. She appears in Hades II, so a character page for Circe should use the Hades II continuity rather than attributing her role, relationships, or gameplay features to the first game.
Overview
Circe does not appear as a character in the original Hades. A page for her should be scoped to Hades II or another Circe-related continuity rather than presented as part of Zagreus’s Underworld journey.
In the original Hades, Circe is not an identified character, Olympian, Chthonic figure, House resident, or encounter associated with Zagreus’s escape attempts. Treating her as a character from that game would incorrectly merge its cast with material from a different continuity.
The name Circe is associated with the wider Greek mythological tradition and may also refer to a character in Hades II. That distinction matters because Hades and Hades II use separate protagonists, settings, story progressions, and character rosters.
Accordingly, this overview cannot accurately describe Circe’s role, introduction, relationships, progression, or gameplay function within Hades. Those details belong on a page whose game scope is explicitly Hades II, if that is the intended subject.
The page scope should be corrected before further character sections are generated. Until then, Circe should not be presented as a supporting character in Hades, and no Hades-specific internal links or story claims should be attached to her.

Mission Appearances
Circe is not a confirmed character in the 2020 game Hades, so no mission, quest, or encounter title can be listed for this game scope without risking a continuity error. Circe appears in Hades II, which should be handled as a separate game appearance.
Locations and Properties
Rift of Thessaly
In Hades II, Circe is associated with a recurring encounter in the Rift of Thessaly, the region reached during Melinoë’s surface route. Her chamber functions as a character-specific meeting place rather than a permanent home, safehouse, or player-owned property. Because the encounter occurs during an Escape Attempt, its appearance and available interaction can depend on the current run and progression state.
Trivia
- Circe appears in Hades II rather than the original Hades, making her one of the characters introduced in the sequel’s expanded cast of mythological figures.
- Circe is encountered during Melinoë’s journey through the Rift of Thessaly in a non-combat interaction, providing a change of pace from the region’s regular battles.
- Her magic can alter Melinoë’s physical size during the encounter, making Circe notable for one of Hades II’s more unusual transformation-themed gameplay interactions.
