Overview​
Eileithyia is the Greek goddess of childbirth, active during the Floor 8 crawl season and sponsored by the alien Huanxin Jinx. As part of the 12th-floor Ascendency game, she recruited the unsponsored goddess Yemaya as her retainer — a resurrection facilitated by crawlers who repaired her shrine.

Known Facts​
- Greek goddess of childbirth. Immortal deity. Level unspecified. Season sponsor: Huanxin Jinx of the Grixist Swarm, CEO of Icon Industries.
- For the Ascendency game on Floor 12, sponsored deities may recruit one unsponsored deity as a retainer. Eileithyia's retainer is Yemaya, who was resurrected when crawlers repaired her shrine on Floor 8 (arranged by Huanxin through Eileithyia's quest interface).
- On Floor 8, Katia Grim worshipped Eileithyia and was offered three boons: (1) triple Constitution; (2) impregnation, which would immediately remove her from the dungeon; or (3) transfer to the 12th floor as Eileithyia's intern. The chosen option resolved the curse placed by the Crown of Sepsis Whore tiara.
