Odysseus

A soldier servant.
The uncle who thought up of the Trojan Horse. A natural gigolo who's unaware of how attractive he is, he's popular wherever he goes but he won't love anyone but his wife.

Though he boasts of his iron-clad defense, his exposed cleavage is his weakness

His hands and cheeks are covered in crumbs and he is staring at Odysseus with a strange unwavering gaze.)
