Cupid

Cupid, or Eros, is the god of love and is the son of Aphrodite/Venus.

Biography
There isn't much known about Cupid's history. He was born of Aphrodite, but existed as a primordial god before that, coming in to existence after Chaos, Gaia (the Earth), and Tartarus (Underworld).

In Evermagic, he was an entity that existed as a primordial god without a body until his birth from Aphrodite. After his birth, he took on many guises but was often represented by a youth with wings or an adult male who was also a profound artist. This was before the chubby flying baby (which he resents). Now he assumes a young man's form with dark hair and dark eyes.

He was often the perpetrator of many love stories between humans, gods, and humans and gods and was worshiped within a religion no longer existing in the world of Evermagic.

Though now living in a Victorian/Georgian setting, his tale with Psyche has yet to unfold. To a god in Evermagic, time means nothing, and they can bounce between eras without trouble at all.

Role in Evermagic
In Tales of Evermagic, Cupid works in a little town mending, building, and connecting hearts. His job is to see that desire, love, attraction, and affection are used properly and felt. He is a hard worker, pleasant, and often affectionate. Since leaving the boundaries (kingdom) of his mythology, he tries to keep a low profile as a god and rarely sports wings or a bow, though he takes pleasure in flying and is talented in archery.

In his past, Cupid liked to cause trouble with his arrows, but of recent has taken on a more mild role in helping Evermagic resolve the tales which are weaved from her.
