Creatures.

Cyclops, sirens, Charybdis — the not-quite-mortal, not-quite-divine.

  1. Polyphemus / pol-i-FEE-mus / One-eyed cyclops, son of Poseidon. Eats Odysseus's men. Gets blinded by a sharpened olive stake and a man calling himself "Nobody."
  2. Sirens / SY-renz / Singing creatures whose voices lure sailors onto the rocks. Odysseus is the only man to hear their song and live to describe it.
