Cupid

Roman god of love (Amor), the winged, arrow-bearing son of Venus in Ovid and Virgil: he shoots Apollo with the golden arrow and Daphne with the leaden one, pierces Pluto at his mother's bidding, and takes Ascanius's shape to make Dido love Aeneas. The Latin poets' Cupid is Venus's child, unlike Hesiod's primordial Eros.
