Chesias

Chesias is attested in Greek mythic genealogies as a named nymph (Ancient Greek: Χησιὰς). The sources present her as the wife of the Samian river-god Imbrasus and the mother of Ocyrhoë (a Naiad of Samos). The attestations known from modern summaries and mythographic sites do not provide a cosmogonic origin or independent narrative for Chesias beyond these familial and locational associations.

The surviving descriptions identify Chesias simply as "the fairest of the nymphs," described as young and noble. No further physical details (attire, distinguishing marks, or other attributes) are recorded in the cited sources; the phrasing aligns her appearance with general classical portrayals of nymphs as youthful and beautiful.

No specific powers, magical abilities, or individual behaviours are recorded for Chesias in the cited materials. She is presented in familial and locational terms (wife of Imbrasus, mother of Ocyrhoë). Any functions beyond maternity and local affiliation are not attested in the available sources and would be speculative; she is therefore represented as a typical named nymph within the broader category of nature-spirits.
