Biography
Another name of Hades' wife Persephone in Greek Mythology. I bought her because I didn’t have many pink dragons at the time and really wanted an elegant lady to handle bugs for the lair :3
Proserpina is the clan’s primary Insect handler. The accent she wears gives off pheromones that attract many insects to her and she collects them all for the stores. She has a wonderful relationship with her surrogate daughter, Erato, often attending her compositions and lending an ear to her practice sessions. Proserpina has a particular love of pomegranates, although she does not know why. She has a part of Dionysus's garden especially reserved for bug breeding experiments. She also takes great pains in trying to 'hook up' Erato with Nevermore, a new poet to the Lair, much to their dismay as they'd prefer to remain close friends!
In between her dabbles in the affairs of her daughter however, Proserpina runs a small teashop which specialises in confectionary and pastries of the...Hexapoda variety. She also brews a wonderful honey tea.

Proserpina (/proʊˈsɜːrpɪnə/; Latin: Prōserpina [proː.ˈsɛr.pɪ.na])[1] or Proserpine (/proʊˈsɜːrpɪˌni, ˈprɒsərˌpaɪn/)[1] is an ancient Roman goddess whose cult, myths and mysteries were combined from those of Libera, an early Roman goddess of wine, and the Greek Persephone and Demeter, goddesses of grain and agriculture. The originally Roman goddess Libera was daughter of the agricultural goddess Ceres and wife to Liber, god of wine and freedom. In 204 BC, a new "Greek-style" cult to Ceres and Proserpina as "Mother and Maiden" was imported from southern Italy, along with Greek priestesses to serve it, and was installed in Libera and Ceres' temple on Rome's Aventine Hill. The new cult and its priesthood were actively promoted by Rome's religious authorities as morally desirable for respectable Roman women, and may have partly subsumed the temple's older, native cult to Ceres, Liber and Libera; but the new rites seem to have functioned alongside the old, rather than replaced them. Just as Persephone was thought to be a daughter of Demeter, Romans made Proserpina a daughter of Demeter's Roman equivalent, Ceres. Like Persephone, Proserpina is associated with the underworld realm and its ruler; and along with her mother Ceres, with the springtime growth of crops and the cycle of life, death and rebirth or renewal. Her name is a Latinisation of "Persephone", perhaps influenced by the Latin proserpere ("to emerge, to creep forth"), with respect to the growing of grain. Her core myths – her forcible abduction by the god of the Underworld, her mother's search for her and her eventual but temporary restoration to the world above – are the subject of works in Roman and later art and literature.
