I’m assuming his name is based off greek mythology? But Sisyphus, in Greek mythology, isn't necessarily a "bad guy" in a way. His story is more complex than simply being a figure of evil or malice. He was sly and tried to prevent death. Sisyphus' story is a metaphor for the constant search for meaning and purpose in a world that can often seem indifferent or absurd, so theres still a chance he might not even be that bad
I’m not saying he was a bad guy but he was sly and selfish. Plus he would lure travellers into his kingdom and then kill them for profit which is what makes me so nervous for this story. Also he only tried to stop death to save his own life he wasn’t thinking about anyone else. His main ‘sin’ tho was hubris and that’s why he was punished. His punishment is a symbol for the absurdness and pointless of life but in my opinion his story was saying you can’t cheat the laws of nature and if u try u get punished.
Yes, I just said that. He was violating Zeus' laws of hospitality, but this could go either way since we don’t know if the author is taking the whole story in account or not It’s 50/50
And his violation of xenia was only in some myths not all
The idea that he murdered guests waslater addition or interpretation, likely to emphasize his extreme selfishness and violation of xenia (the Greek code of hospitality). In majority versions, Sisyphus's offenses more focused on outwitting the gods, rather than killing. So i’m just hoping this is all green flag since it all sums up to interpretation
Everyone saying that sm feels off ur deffo right just look up the story’s around Sisyphus and u can see all the references already
