Pelias a mortal king of Iolcus is the son of Tyro and Poseidon. His wife is recorded as either Anaxibia, daughter of Bias, or Phylomache, daughter of Amphion. He was the father of Acastus, Pisidice, Alcestis, Pelopia, Hippothoe, Amphinome, Evadne, Asteropeia, and Antinoe.

Thetis is a Nereid goddess of the sea, daughter of the immortals Doris and Nereus. Her son was Achilles and her husband Peleus.
