Lamia is a Greek goddess of serpents.
Lamia was initially a Libyan goddess, presumably an extension of Lilith, but her Greek integration is the source of her most well-known stories.
Lamia went wild with sadness when Hera kidnapped and killed
her children, and she evolved into an immortal demon that pursued people and
devoured their blood.
She is depicted as a snake with a woman's head and body, and
she is a strong sorceress and seductress.
