Phosphora (エレカ Ereka) is a new character in Kid Icarus: Uprising. She appears to be a weather goddess that specializes in electricity-based attacks and can move as fast as lightning. Phosphora is one of Viridi's top commanders due to her incredible power, which allows her to create massive storms and tornadoes. However, she can also tire very fast and often needs to recharge after an intense battle. In terms of appearance, Phosphora looks and acts like a teenage girl, even flirting with Pit on one occasion. She is fought as a boss during Lightning Battle, and later reappears as an ally of Pit along with Viridi, although her only purpose at this point is to watch over the Lightning Chariot (which she has grown quite fond of).
