Niobe

Niobe (Ancient Greek: Νιόβη) was a daughter of Tantalus and Dione from Greek mythology. Other women who may have been her mother include Euryanassa and Eurythemista. She was the wife of Amphion and they had fourteen children together.

Mythology
Niobe was the mother of fourteen children. She boasted that she was a better mother than Leto because Leto had only had two children. As punishment for her hubris, Apollo and Artemis killed all fourteen of Niobe's children with their bows and arrows; Apollo killed Niobe's seven sons while Artemis killed her seven daughters. After seeing what had happened, Niobe's husband Amphion either committed suicide or was killed by Apollo for swearing revenge. Niobe fled to Mount Sipylus and was transformed into a rock.

In some versions, Meliboea and Amyclas were two of Niobe's children who were spared by Apollo and Artemis. When this is the case, it is usually stated that Meliboea's complexion remained green from horror for the rest of her life and she began to be called Chloris.
