River Acheron | Acheron (god) |
Acheron is the river god of pain and the River Acheron as well as the father of Askalaphos, He rules over the river and rules over the Naiads that resides in the river. He also borders the underworld, not letting souls pass unless Charon is paid. In The Sun and the Star: A Nico di Angelo Adventure, Gorgyra mentions that Acheron left for the last time long, long ago and he hasn't returned which she knew would happen. Gorgyra reveals that over the centuries Acheron lost his physical form and his sense of self, leaving her to doubt that there's a difference between the river and the god anymore.
