Biography
Hippolyta was born on Themiscyra to Amazon queen Otrera and the god of war Ares. After Otrera's death, Hippolyta became queen. Her sisters Antiope and Melanippe both created their own factions in Lycastia and Chade and waged war with Hippolyta and each other over the throne.

During this war, Hippolyta met with Heracles who was sent to take her girdle for his ninth labour. After being defeated by Heracles, Hippolyta told the Amazons he raped her. When her servant Iphito gave birth to Arita, daughter of Ares, Iphito fled to Lycastia to have the baby raised by Antiope.
