Typhon was a storm-giant, so huge that his head was said to brush the stars, who laid siege to the realm of the gods but was defeated by Zeus. He is said to be the cause of volcanic eruptions and of devastating storms. His name is considered to be a possible etymology for the word “typhoon”. Ekhidna was his consort, a she-dragon who birthed a number of the Titans.
