Polynices attempts to claim the throne of Thebes by force from his brother Eteocles. The two fight to the death killing each other.
In Sophocle's Antigone, Antigone buries Polynices against the orders of King Creon and is sentenced to death by starvation. She hangs herself first.
Other accounts have that Creon's son Haemon marries her secretly and she lives sercretly with Haemon's shepards. They have a son together whom Creon recognizes by a serpent mark which is on all the descendants of Cadmus and sentences his grandson to death where upon Haemon kills himself and Antigone. (The Greek Myths Complete Edition by Robert Graves, page 380.)
