Pothos is one of the mascots in Olympus Pretty Cure. He is the guardian of the Chrysolite Horoscorb and serves as Kaneda Miwa's fairy partner. He ends his sentences with "~poto".
Appearance[]
Pothos looks like a cyan-feathered dove with chrysolite green eyes, a lime green beak and legs, and a chrysolite green Libra symbol on his forehead. He normally wears a dark green scarf, held close by a chrysolite gemstone clip.
Personality[]
Pothos is normally calm and easy-going, with a strong need for harmony. Intellectual, serious and strict, he dislikes discord, tension, cruelty and injustice. He is also surprisingly vain and a bit of a perfectionist, with strong attention to even the smallest detail, and sometimes bossy and easily-annoyed, especially towards Triton. Despite this, he is still caring and well-meaning. Pothos also has a fondness for chopped watermelon and Miwa's father's omurice, the last of which in particular if it's extra spicy.

Etymology[]
In Greek mythology, Pothos, god of sexual longing, was one of Aphrodite's erotes and brother to Himeros and Eros. In some versions of myth, Pothos is the son of Eros, or is portrayed as an independent aspect of him. He was part of Aphrodite's retinue, and carried a vine, indicating a connection to wine or the god Dionysus. Pothos' name is the Greek word for "longing".
