Considering I like a lot of forgotten or underrated characters I decided to do a forgotten character of the day post everyday I'll just call it fcotd for short(forgotten character of the day)!
FCOTD DAY 1: POLYDORA
Polydora is the half sister of Achilles, daughter of Peleus and Antigone, she is the wife of Borus, the son of Perieres who had wooed her with a large dowry, but regardless of this became mother of Menesthius by Spercheios.
She is mentioned in two sources, in Homer's Iliad and also by Apollodorus.
We unfortunately do not have much information on Polydora because of the lack of sources that mention her.
I believe there is also a source that details her as the wife of Peleus rather than his daughter but I'm not a fan of that version and I don't care for it.
