True: Posiden turned Scylla into a Nymph but she didnt just turn half dog..... What happened was a merman had fallen in love with her but she rejected him cruelly so he went to a great soceress who lived under the sea to see if she could help him. He explained his situation and the sorceress asked if he wanted her to cure his love, but that was the last thing he wanted "No its for her" he said "I want her to fall in love with me!" "Are you sure little sea creature?Wouldnt it be wise to look for someone who loves you back?Take me for example-" "-Oh no!!" Said the man "I mean I beg your pardon but you are old and ugly" At this the sorceress grew very mad "Very well I shall make you something" "Will it change her?" Asked The merman "Oh yes.... it will change her alrite" She said with a wicked grin she handed him a bag of herbs and told him to throw them in her favourite swimming place. The merman thought nothing when the herbs hissed angryly and urned the water black he was still admiring his prize...... Scylla dived in head first and after her swim she lay down on the beach . When she awoke the dogs were apart of her.... and when the mermen saw her he ran away nd never thought of her again :)

According to what I've heard, Scylla had six heads, each one of a different animal, that had razor-sharp teeth. The heads were of a wolf, bat, eagle, hornet, bear, and snake.

This is an anciant greek myth .The legend is told when a young fisherman named Glaucus saw an enchanted herb in the water that he has never seen in that particular way before , trusted his instinct and ate it . He than began to change drastically , his hair color turned green like seaweed and his legs turned into scales . Everyone around him was unformilliar of that particular form and the gods have agreed to make him god of the sea. Glaucus fell in love with a beautiful sea nymph her name was scylla daughter of phorcys ( but most people say she was the daughter of posiedan) , Glaucus who was madly in love with her tried to get her attention but scylla was not interested and fled to land to get away from him. Glaucus determined to have her whent to circe's island ,he told circe (the powerful sorceress) of his love for scylla and asked her for a love potion that would make scylla melt her heart all over him circe who was in love with him herself tried to get him to change his mind about Scylla and tried to be submissive towards the sea god but Glaucus would not change his mind of Scylla. Cice grew into a jealous rage towards Scylla made a powerfull poison, whent to the whirlpool where Scylla bathe and poured it into the water , unsuspected Scylla emerged into the whirlpool to take a bath and she transformed into a hideous monster with twelve feet and six heads each with three rows of teeth , each head resembling a dog , and a serphant tale the upper part of her body stayed a nymph. Scylla stood in utter misery and takes her pain out on sailors who passes by the cliff near strait of messina were Charybdis a sea monster also lived sailors who passed there on two sides of the strait are within an arrow's range of each other, so close that sailors attempting to avoid Charybdis will pass too close to Scylla and vice versa.

This is totally wrong. I've read the Odyssey myself and Scylla is NOT a half Nymph. She's a monster with 6 (I think it's 6. may be 8 or something. xD) heads, who is next to the monster Charybdis (the whirlpool). I'm a huge fan opf greek myths... Is it possible for someone to fix this? Or can I fix it?
