Phanes: Primordial God of Life/Procreation
(a.k.a. Eros and Physis)
Phanes is the son of Hydros: Primordial Goddess of Water. He hatched from a cosmic egg created by Thesis: Primordial Goddess of Creation from Water, making Thesis his grandmother.
Phanes was the Primordial God of Life and Procreation. As such, he sired future generations of Titans and created men.
He was the first King of the Universe. He would later pass that title to his daughter and wife Nyx: Primordial Goddess of Night.
While few records remain of Phanes, his appearance is described as androgynous and beautiful. He has golden wings and wears a helmet entwined with a serpent.
Little else is known about Phanes. Most believe that like the other Primordial Deities he abandoned his anthropomorphized form. None have spoken directly to Phanes in millennia.

Most simply believe that he gave up his anthropomorphized form when he passed on his title to his daughter.
