Who is Dora?

Melinoe's Companion

Dora	Epithet	Listless Shade
	Faction	Unseen
	Voice Actor	Erin Yvette

Dora is a shade that is usually seen hanging inside Melinoe's chambers, trying to annoy and haunt her by moving her stuff while she is away.

Could be Pandora

Much like how Dusa from the previous game was a play at “Medusa”, Dora could be a play on “Pandora”, the first human created by Hephaestus upon the order of Zeus according to Greek mythology.

Alternate Forms

Dora is also seen to have an alternate form whenever she is in an agitated state. Her color palette becomes darker an her face disappears in shadows.

Dora in Mythology

May or May Not Be Pandora

While it is not confirmed whether Dora is derived from the character Pandora in Greek mythology, Dora is a character in Greek myth known for being generous and giving gifts to mortals. The name is derived from the Greek word “doron”, or the customary tradition of gift-giving in Greek culture.

This how we got the names “Dorothea”, “Dorothy”, “Theodora”, and “Theodore”, all meaning “a gift from God”.
