TYPHOEUS, also known as Typhon, stands as a formidable figure in Greek mythology, characterized as a monstrous storm-giant. He launched an audacious assault on the heavens but was ultimately vanquished by Zeus, who imprisoned him in the abyss of Tartarus. From this dark underworld, Typhoeus became the harbinger of catastrophic storms, with later interpretations depicting him as a volcano-giant trapped beneath Mount Etna in Sicily. This association with volcanic activity links him to the eruptions that continue to shape the landscape today.

In tandem with Typhoeus is Echidna, often referred to as the "Mother of Monsters." She is depicted as a hybrid creature, half-woman and half-snake, embodying the duality of beauty and terror. Echidna represents chthonic forces—supernatural entities associated with the underworld—symbolizing decay, disease, and the corruption of the earth. Ancient Greeks believed that serpents dwelled beneath the surface, connecting her to both terrestrial and aquatic realms. According to Hesiod, Echidna was born of the sea deities Phorcys and Ceto, further emphasizing her ties to primordial chaos.

Echidna's legacy is intertwined with her offspring, many of whom are infamous monsters in their own right. Together with Typhoeus, she bore creatures such as Cerberus, the multi-headed guardian of the Underworld; the Lernaean Hydra, known for its regenerative heads; and the Sphinx, among others. This lineage underscores their role as formidable adversaries to heroes in Greek mythology. While Typhoeus met his end at the hands of Zeus, who confined him under Mount Etna, Echidna's fate was sealed by Argus Panoptes, a giant known for his hundred eyes, who ultimately killed her while she slept.

Their story in Simanity is yet to unfold.
