History
This character's story merges those of two beings known Lycaon, seemingly confused one with another.
Origins and early years
Lycaon was the son of Priam, king of Troy, but not from Hecuba, like many sons of Priam, including Hector.[3]
He was the king of Lycia, and sired a son, Pandarus,[1][4]
Trojan War
Pandarus went to fight for the Trojans during the Trojan War.[1][5]
Lycaon himself met Achilles during his killing spree following Patroclus' death at the hands of Hector. Fleeing in River Scamander like other Trojan warriors and allies, he asked Achilles to capture him for a ransom, but Achilles preferred to slay him and threw his corpse in the river.[3]
Notes
- This character seemingly merges (in Pandarus' entry in the Olympians' appendix of Official Handbook of the Marvel Universe A-Z #9) Lycaon of Troy at Wikipedia, son of Priam, and Lycaon, king of Lycia and father of Pandarus. This is possibly an error due to the fact a great number of Greek mythological characters used that name.
