Alcestis
-
[Alcestis] is a 25 year old CypriatGreek/[Greek girl] who is still in her adolescence. After dating her a few weeks you will find out that her real name is actually spelt [Alkistis] and she doesnt like that version of the name.
If you are familiar with the urban dictionary definitions of both these names then you will know that neither spellings of these names have a good reputation. In effect to hide her identity an Alkistis will ask you to call her [Anya]. In inverted commas; this is supposedly easier for us to pronounce. We all [know thats] not true; she just wants to market herself as Anya, who is known to be sweet and beautiful.
Again; dont be fooled by the mythological meaning of the name; to an inexperienced lover an Alkistis could feel like true love and that is how they get you. Alkistises are half cold, unfeeling beings with half equally cold and equally unfeeling again beings. (I dont dare call one an human.) -
The wife of Admetus, king of Pherae in Thessaly. She saved her husbands life by consenting to die on his behalf.
