Melanippe is one of Hippolyta's sisters, and the leader of the Cult of Hades. A meek figure, she is dominated by her sister Antiope.

Melanippe and Antiope were the two who instigated the ceremony that brought Steve Trevor to Themyscira, in a plot started by their patron Olypmians that needed the sacrifice of an innocent outsider on the mystical island. Melanippe was loath to attack her fellow Amazons, and shocked when she realized Antiope was willing to kill Amazons in service to Ares, but did not put up resistance against her sister.
