Maenad

Maenad(s) in mythology were followers of Dionysus or ''The God Who Comes. In Roman Mythology Dionysus was called Bacchus. ''Maenad's usually don't travel together, and are nomatic and seek tribute to their god. If she can't give praise to her god, the Maenad leaves the establishment in utter chaos leaving all of the residents under a



frenzy.

In True Blood, Maenad's are seen to be ruthless and could care less about humans. Maryann Forester was willingto kill anyone who got in her way of the "perfect specimen" Sam Merlotte.

Powers

 * Immortality - Maenad's have "surpassed" death. They believe they can't die, and so they can't.
 * Super Strength - Maenad's are the only species that is capable of riviling that of a Vampire.
 * Manipulation - Maenad's are able to make any Human go into a sexual frenzy, where they do other things as well. They can also do this to other supernatural creatures, but it's unknown what they can do.

Weaknesses

 * Maenad's are unable to die, even being staked, shot at, set on fire, etc. The only way for a Maenad to be killed is if they believe that they finished their ritual and pleased The God Who Comes and will die.
