I'm liking Stheno more and more... She may be the more blood thirsty of the three, but I think she's kinda partial to the little weed...

Turpentine (sp?); that is harder to ignite than plain gasoline, but if I recall burns much hotter when it does get going.

Smoky too... (natch)

Turpentine and India Ink.

Hmm, am I the only one who reads Stheno's lines in like one of those throaty voices? I really think it fits her.

You aren't the only one... Gar, I wish I had a good example I could link to, but I can't seem to think of one! Harrumph.

Lauren Bacall?

$ME raises hand. Definitely one of those throaty, almost smoky voices.

you mean like Dr. Girlfriend?

Now THAT is a throaty voice.

I use the voice of an old team member i had, very throaty but smooth as silk.

In fine Wapsi Square paraphrasing I speak

"That!, I want THAT!"

Stheno is so cool!

Turpentine? Often called "turps" by painters?

Does this mean that Stheno is also Terpsichore, the muse of dancing?

Turpentine?? More like botulinum.

from Wikipedia: "Stheno was known to be the most murderous of the Gorgon sisters, having killed more men than both of her sisters combined."

I imagine that as with many other bits of human mythology, the Wapsiverse truth is that the mythology is greatly exaggerated.

She used some really harsh, sarcastic language to two or three baristas who got her coffee order wrong (well, maybe four or five over the centuries) and now all of a sudden she's "murderous".

I know people who're like that when their coffee is wrong...

In the words of Luigi Vercotti...

Look up Eartha Kitt as catwoman.

I imagine her voice sounding like Pink sings... scratchy, throaty, but rich with power...

I could agree but maybe a shade or two deeper in tone...

My favorite catwoman.

Now Stheno has that voice, in my head anyway...

Ashley Johnson's voice for Petra (MineCraft Story Mode) immediately came to mind when I read that. Tara Strong (a la Raven in Teen Titans), too. I'm trying to think of a better more natural example, though.

EDIT :Nevermind plenty have been provided
