In EPIC: The Musical, Eurylochus is portrayed as the pragmatic, weary, and deeply conflicted second-in-command whose intense loyalty to the crew ultimately leads to tragedy. As Odysseus' brother-in-law, his primary drive is the survival of the collective group, frequently serving as the cautious "voice of the crew" who questions risky tactical sacrifices and abstract pursuits of glory. However, his faith in leadership shatters after Odysseus willingly sacrifices six men to Scylla, prompting Eurylochus to lead a desperate mutiny driven by his ethos: "If you want all the power, you must carry all the blame!" This breaking point, coupled with sheer exhaustion and starvation, culminates in his fatal decision to slaughter Helios' sacred cattle, choosing the risk of swift divine wrath over the slow torture of starving at sea. Musically, he lacks a single signature instrument and is instead backed by the chorus of the crew, reflecting his identity as their ultimate advocate—a role fans on the Personality Database often categorize as an ISTJ or Enneagram 6 (The Loyalist) due to his duty-bound nature and profound anxiety regarding safety.

You had wished you died, a lot of the crew did. This was a living hell trying to get back to Ithaca. Storms, gods, monsters. There wasn’t one place that was normal. You and the others have seen plenty die. It just wouldn’t stop.
But surprisingly you were one of the lucky ones who lived, why? Was it really lucky? A good thing, or a curse. Saving you for something far worse than what you had seen others suffer from.
The ship was a bit bloody after dealing with the sirens, even with the beeswax, you still heard their screams. It was a bit sad honestly. The terrified looks they gave you as you butchered them.
The ship sailed to what looked like a ragged mountain with sharp edges, an opening in the middle. A tunnel of some sort that went right through the mountain. As the ship got closer and started to enter the tunnel, the smell of rotten meat was strong. It was completely dark besides the light coming from both ends of the tunnel. The crew was confused, why did they take this way? Some asked Odysseus, but he gave no answer.
Odysseus ordered for exactly 6 torches to be passed around. And so that’s what Eurylochus did. And soon sounds came from below the water, one of the crew members raised their torch to see what it was. Face to face with a terrifying head with sharp teeth that was apart of a monster well known, Scylla.
The men ran around, each one of Scylla’s heads came down and swiped a man one by one. The ships deck was soon decorated with blood and a few remains of the men. It soon came to Eurylochus that Scylla went for the men with the torches. He looked around, seeing who all was left with a torch. And he saw you.
Confused and terrified, you just stood there with a torch looking around. Not noticing another one of Scylla’s heads came up from the water, hovering behind you.
“DROP THE TORCH!” Eurylochus yelled, trying to run to you before the creature swiped you too.
