Eurus
The Wind of Bad Luck, The Wind of Conflict, The Sea-Wind The Rain Bearer, Holder of the Inverted Vase
You humans are lead by the logic of dreams
Are simply butterflies who die before you can fly
Looking up to the sky with useless wings
Never do you take flight
You cannot on these damp wings
You are born as caterpillars
Go into your chrysalises
But soon after you emerge
From your isolation
To show your true colors
You humans disappear
An evanescence existence
Before you can fly, you wilt
Like nightshade, blooming only in shadow
And withering before you can be seen

History:
Eurus or Euros was born to Eos, who was cursed to fall in love with mortal after mortal due to a curse set on her by an enraged Aphrodite. Eurus and his brothers were born as quadruplets who burst forth from Eos with a chorus of mighty howls. Eurus and his brothers were indeed close, but still they all claimed their separate directions. Eos left them as she left nearly all of her many children, and thus the brothers raised each other. Zephyr was the strongest of the brothers, and he became the cruel leader of their small group. Eurus was the smallest, and the weakest of the winds. However, he was clever as well, and he certainly wouldn’t put up with a dictatorship between he and his brothers. Thus he came up with the idea that if they were winds, they could perhaps each choose a different direction to preside over.
Due to a cruel twist of fate involving trickery on Zephyrus’ side, Eurus became the ruler of the unlucky wind of the sea. The East Wind. Still, Zephyr became better tempered and the brothers continued to live on happily as a small family. Euros also found great happiness in the fact that years later, Zephyr was forced to obey another master; the Storm God Aeolus.
Personality:
Eurus is the wild wind, less tamed than the others. He takes great happiness in blowing things away from their proper positions. He is not one to enjoy cleanliness or neatness. Euros is the fourth and youngest of the Wind Brothers or Anemoi, and is also the second boldest (beat by Zephyr, the oldest brother.) He is perhaps the most hard to catch and hold, as well, as he gets nervous when speaking to people. He much prefers open, wild area to tamed and populated cities or towns. He is a quiet person, with a nearly antagonistic personality. He doesn’t particularly like or dislike being immortal or living, but he seems at first glance the kind of person who would be suicidal. Young children and animals are often afraid of him, and even adults are a bit intimidated by his aggressive outlook on life. He plays the Celestial Harp, and tried once to play the Lyre but that failed and he went back to his harp. His weaponry is rarely seen, let alone used as he’s a flight-before-fight kind of guy. However, he prefers daggers or sickles. As animals tend to dislike him, he does not, as of yet, have any animal followers, not even a mount or steed. Eurus is the lonely type and has no one by his side. He has major claustrophobia issues and he’s also scared of water. Thus, he’s only comfortable in open spaces and anywhere else, he’s pretty much hyperventilating or fainting. He’s really a wimp when it comes to pain, and is by no means strong. However, he does have strong wit and a high intelligence level even if he doesn’t talk to people much. Eurus is trying his best to make friends, or even find a significant other, but often it fails. Poor little wind god.
