Clysonymus

Clysonymus appears in the Homeric/epic tradition as the son of Amphidamas of Opuntus. Surviving references present him not as a supernatural being but as a named mortal whose brief life and accidental death form part of the biographical backstory of better-known figures, specifically Patroclus. The available sources give only the concise claim that Patroclus accidentally killed Clysonymus during a childhood dispute over dice; no fuller mythic origin, family saga beyond his paternity, or narrative development survives in the supplied material.

No physical description of Clysonymus is preserved in the provided sources. He is characterized only as a childhood friend of Patroclus and as the son of Amphidamas of Opuntus; the tradition does not record his age beyond being a youth, nor any details of clothing, stature, or distinguishing features in the surviving references.

The supplied material attributes no supernatural abilities, skills, or recurring behaviors to Clysonymus. He is attested solely as a participant in a social interaction that ended in his accidental death; the sources record that Patroclus 'accidentally killed Clysonymus' during an argument over a dice game. No powers, crafts, or notable competencies are ascribed in the available accounts.
