Erinus (エリヌス Erinusu) is a cloaked, one-eyed monster encountered in the Palace in the Sky, and attacks all who enter. Being the God of Revenge, Erinus will continue to attack Pit even after being blasted apart by his Bow's Arrow of Light by having the remaining parts dash at the angel. He's tenacious enough to keep re-appearing until shot to pieces.
Characteristics
Erinus is a mysterious creature, as the cloak obscures most physical traits other than a monocular eye, fangs, and claws.
Appearances
Kid Icarus
"The God of Revenge in Greek legend. It will not forgive those who have entered the Palace in the Sky. It is said that no one has seen it and lived to tell the tale."

An Erinus is an Underworld foe that prefers to attack in great numbers, though even when seeming to fight solo...it isn't. Its top and bottom halves can separate and fight independently, making it a diabolical duo!
Erinus appears in Medusa's Final Battle and a few rare other places. Unlike its previous appearance, it can only split into two parts when killed- its upper body and its legs. Humorously, it is revealed that the Erinus wears blue-striped boxer shorts underneath its robes when it splits apart. If the upper body dies before the legs do, the legs will become permanently confused and can be defeated easily.
Trivia
- The Erinyes were commonly called the Furies in Greek mythology, creatures of vengeance borne from blood that actually crossed many cultural boundaries, even showing up in the Inferno. They are often depicted as winged women.
- In Uprising, the bottom half after it splits has no pants, only boxers. Pit makes a comment about this.
