Chrysaor
Generation VI · He of the golden sword · The Olympians · Heroes & Monsters
Chrysaor, whose name means 'golden sword,' sprang from Medusa's neck alongside his winged brother Pegasus when Perseus struck off her head. He is remembered chiefly as a link in the chain of monsters: by the Oceanid Callirhoe he fathered three-bodied Geryon. After that the record falls silent — myth never tells his end, so his deathlessness stands unrecorded rather than disproven.
