Pisces Aphrodite

Pisces Aphrodite (魚座（ピスケス）のアフロディーテ, Pisukesu no Afurodīte?) is a narcissistic and merciless individual. He is often seen thinking about the beauty of battle and calling victory as the greatest beauty that crowns the strongest warrior. He was first created by Masami Kurumada and is recognisable by his long light teal hair and beauty mark under the left eye.

After the Titans' gate is discovered, the Pope sends him to cover the entrance of the Time Labyrinth with his deadly roses so none may cross it. Aphrodite saves the defenceless Aiolia from the attacks of the followers of the Titans. After an argument between the two Gold Saints, since Aiolia was against Aphrodite's bloodlust, the Giant Anthrakma Zugylos appears. Aphrodite saves Aiolia from Zugylos's deadly mace and kills the Giant. He returns to Sanctuary afterwards, leaving behind a carpet of vines and roses at the exit of that world to prevent an invasion on Sanctuary.

Other than his techniques involving roses, the "Royal Demon Rose" (王魔薔薇（ロイヤル・デモン・ローズ）, Roiyaru Demon Rōzu?), the "Piranhan Rose" (黒鋸薔薇（ピラニアン・ローズ）, Piranian Rōzu?), and the "Bloody Rose" (紅血薔薇（ブラッディ・ローズ）, Buraddi Rōzu?), Aphrodite can create and manipulate large rose vines. He uses them to restrain and strangle his targets, create massive vine blades and defensive cocoons to protect and heal himself or another through his Cosmo.
