Erebos (primordial)

Erebos (also spelled as Erebus) is the son of Chaos, brother to Gaea, Tartarus, and Nyx, as well as her consort. He is the Primordial of Darkness and Mist. He represented darkness which filled the nooks and crannies of the world.

History
Erebus is the Primordial god of Darkness and Mist, one of the original primordial gods, a child of Chaos. His wife, Nyx, was also his sister. He was the father of many beings, and also the name for the desolate plains of the Underworld, as well as the walls where he currently resides. With Nyx, he became the father of Hemera, the Protogenos of Day, and Aether, Protogenos of Light, an ironic fact that the day and light would be the children of night and darkness. His other children include: Momus, Nemesis, Hypnos, and Thanatos.

Some accounts say that Hades is completely dark because of him. It is said that once Erebus was conspiring against the gods and planning to enter Tartarus and bring back the Titans. Nevertheless, Hades found out and surprised the conspirators, throwing Erebus in Tartarus and locking him there. According to the myth, since that day, Hades became only brighter than Tartarus. This version is strange because Erebus is a primordial god and would not likely be defeated by any of the Olympian gods, even if surprised.
