A collection of people who were not immune to Paris of Troy. Details (left to right, top to bottom):1. Oenone, Paris’ first wife from way back before he was even in Troy. When he leaves her, she curses him and tells him that he’s going to die and she won’t save him. This does indeed happen. 2. Antheus, Paris’ boyfriend from shortly after he found out he was a prince and moved to Troy proper. Paris accidentally killed him with a discus because discus is the worst sport apparently. 3. Helen, we all know about her and Paris of course. I go with the idea that Helen/Paris is a lot more one-sided than it seems and Helen’s only into him thanks to some Aphrodite juice. This depicts said Juice Time. 4. Aphrodite, because when Paris chooses her over the other goddesses you can’t tell me she doesn’t just go “hey, free boyfriend!” Also, there’s that part where Helen’s like “well Aphrodite if you like him so much why don’t YOU sleep with him???” 5. Sarpedon, which has no mythological founding and is fully from my own head, but I wrote more details about them over here. afaik they don’t canonically interact but I think they should. 6. Apollo, also no mythological background, but they’re both very fucked up over Hektor’s death, and the fact that Paris was the one Apollo went to in order to avenge Hektor say something. They’re not exactly romantic, they’re just a mess. -- source link
