About Oneiroi →

Family

• Nyx(parent),Apate(sibling),Geras(sibling),Hesperides(sibling),Keres(sibling),Momos(sibling),Moros(sibling),Oizys(sibling),Philotes(sibling)

  Nyx bore a dark brood without a father: Moros the doom of death, the Keres who haunt the battlefield, the Oneiroi who slip through the ivory and horn gates of sleep, the Hesperides who tend the golden-apple tree at the world's edge, Momos the spirit of mockery, Oizys the embodiment of misery, Apate who is deceit, Philotes who is tenderness, and Geras the wasting of old age.

  ⚠ Hesiod (Theogony 215) names the Hesperides among Nyx's children; Apollodorus (Bibliotheca 2.5.11) makes them daughters of Atlas and Hesperis instead.

Contains

• Morpheus,Phantasos,Phobetor

  The Oneiroi number a thousand, but three stand above the rest — Morpheus, who takes human form in dreams, Phobetor, who appears as beasts and serpents, and Phantasos, who fashions visions of earth, water, and stone.
