If you sail into Chrybdis, you are devoured by her. She is a whirlpool in the sea. At least you have a CHANCE of getting by Syclla.

What is charybdis and what does she do?
Charybdis is a giant, enormous, dangerous whirlpool. Charybdis is a female and lives in the water. She is the daughter of Poseidon and Gaia. On the opposite side of Charybdis lives Scylla, another god who is a sea monster. Charybdis isn't really a "sea monster", shes mostly a whirlpool. She lives under the rocks in the water. There are 2 stories explaining how she ended up in the water, but we don't know which one is true. One story says that Charybdis had stolen Hercules' cattle and Hercules told Zeus, so Zeus hit her with a thunderbolt, making her a giant, dangerous whirlpool, only to live in water. The other story is that Poseidon had created storms, and Charybdis would make the waves of the water rise, flooding and destroying the cities and villages, making Zeus so mad, that he punished her by putting her in the water. She swallows the water 3 times a day, and then she throws it back up, causing a whirlpool. This pretty much explains who Charybdis is, hope it helped! ;-)
