Some myths explain Scylla's beginnings. One says she was one of the daughters of Phorcys, the Greek God of the Deep. Another says that Scylla was a very pretty fairy who was liked by Poseidon, but the jealous Amphitrite turned her into a monster by poisoning the water where Scylla would swim.
One says that a jealous Circe poured a potion into the seawater and then made Scylla transform into a monster with four eyes and six long necks with ugly heads. Her body had 12 tentacle looking legs and a tail. She attacked the ships of nearby people.
In another myth, Heracles (also known as Hercules) came across Scylla when traveling and then killed her. The sea-god Phorcys then restored her to life.
She was then turned into a femboy by Odysseus
