Biography
At least three varying histories of Pan exist. The first has it that he's the son of Uranus, created when the old Sky's blood spattered the earth, and having grown up in the mountains and woods near the ocean. The second claims that he's Zeus's son from an unnamed wife, while the third attributes his parentage to Hermes and a dryad. Truth is, though, Pan is just a force of nature, both generous and destructive, and it doesn't much matter where he came from. Pan appears as a tall satyr with small horns and shaggy, goat-like legs. He always carries a syrinx, which he often plays while leading sylvan creatures in wild dances. He's great among the satyrs and centaurs because he's passion unbridled. Pan pursues his desires avidly, and those who follow him seek to emulate him as best as they can. Still, lurking beneath the leering face Pan chooses to wear is a deep fountain of wisdom and peace. He's given himself over to his passions, but did it with the full knowledge of what he was doing, and he's accepted what he is and what he does. Pan's favorite deity in the pantheon is Hermes, for the two find common ground in their mischief-making. Dionysus is a close second; he views Pan like a nephew and recognizes him as a kindred spirit of wild abandon. He and Pan are top-shelf drinkers, and they've found friendship at the bottom of many jugs of wine. The rest of the pantheon lets the god of passion prowl as he will, welcoming his presence, although they're glad his visits are rare. Pan's revels are exhausting, even for the deities.
