Summary Lycaon, once a revered prince raised among deities in Arcadia, dined with gods like Artemis, Apollo, and Hermes at his father's court. As king, his piety grew, establishing temples and seeking divine progeny through marriage to a nymph. Unsatisfied with his children, Callisto and Nyctimus, he was deceived by Echidna, who promised superior offspring but instead cursed him. Under the moonlight, Lycaon transformed into a monstrous wolf, unleashing havoc until Artemis incapacitated him with a silver arrow. Nyctimus later ruled briefly as a wise king, while an undying Lycaon haunted Elysium, preying especially on Artemis' devout followers, with those bitten joining his cursed ranks.
