PeriklymenosPericlymenos

The eldest son of Neleus and Khloris (Chloris); one of the Argonauts.

Periklymenos’ grandfather, Poseidon (lord of the Sea), gave him boundless strength and the ability to assume any shape he desired in battle; when Neleus refused to absolve Herakles (Heracles) for the murder of Iphitus, Herakles killed Periklymenos, his brother Khromios (Chromios), and his father, Neleus.

His name may also be rendered as Periklymenus or Periclymenus.
