Some sample questions from this category:

* Depending on the legend, it is said that Orpheus's father could either be the Thracian King, Oeagrus, or the God Apollo himself. In either case, who was Orpheus's birth mother?
* Although Orpheus inherited many musical talents, for which instrument is he most well-known?
* Little more is known about Orpheus's past before he met his beautiful wife. They fell madly in love and were married at once. What was the name of Orpheus's sweet maiden?
* Unfortunately, the bride and groom's bliss was short-lived. The day of their wedding, after the ceremony, Orpheus's love was frolicking in the meadow with her bridesmaids when she was killed by a poisonous snake. Now, can you tell me what type of snake it was that killed Orpheus' true love?
* After hearing the enchanting music Orpheus had so desperately played, Hades decided to allow Orpheus to take Eurydice under one condition. What was that one condition?
