Asterion

Asterion is the classical name of the Minotaur. Asobo’s Resonance myth post names Minos, the Minotaur, Daedalus, Theseus, and Ariadne — not Asterion as a character.

Updated · Official

Asterion is the classical personal name attached to the Minotaur in Greek myth. It is not a name Asobo’s tracked Steam posts use for a Resonance character.

What Asobo did name

DEVBLOG #3, “Into The Myth,” retells Minos, Pasiphaë, the Minotaur, Daedalus’s labyrinth, Theseus, and Ariadne’s thread. The store page names Daedalus as the craftsman who wove light into the island. The gameplay announcement names Theseus as the presence resonating within Sophia.

None of those posts call the beast Asterion, give it a skill tree, or put it in a weapon slot.

What this page will not do

It will not write a personality (“trapped, feared”) as if that were a Steam community report. Classical myth is not a patch note.

For the official myth summary and the line that Resonance begins after the thread vanishes, read the Minotaur myth explained.
