Official Profile
A beast from Greek mythology with the head and breasts of a beautiful woman, the body of a lion and hawk-like wings. In a rage, the goddess Hera sent Sphinx to punish the people of Thebes, where Sphinx asked a riddle of those attempting to pass, eating those who could not answer. The hero Oedipus answered correctly and in shock threw herself off a cliff, to her death. However, in Egyptian lore she was worshiped as a symbol of the sun god.
