Character Deaths

There comes a time for all things, a time to live and a time to die. Many characters have died on Young Hercules, and many more have either faked their death or been temporarily presumed dead. This is a page for them all to rest in peace. (See also Rest In Peace for a memorial page for actors who appeared on Young Hercules and have since passed away.)

Young Hercules (Movie Pilot) and Young Hercules (Novelization)

• Iolaus fakes his death in front of a jeweler's stall after someone comes up and 'stabs' him in the chest. Last words (in the movie only): Why?
• Zandarus presumably dies when Pelias takes over Corinth, and his body is later seen hanging by the wrists outside the main walls of the city.
• Mikos and Alcestor fought to the death while under the spell of the Siren. They died in Ithra.
• Enyo is washed off the Argo by a huge wave during a heavy storm. He is lost at sea and presumed dead.
• Yvenna is thrown by a giant and dies before the Golden Fleece can be brought to her. She dies in Korsenia. Last words: I didn't run. Promise me. Promise me...
• King Aeson was cured of his mysterious illness by the Golden Fleece, only to die shortly after when Ares snaps his neck. He passes away in his bed, in Corinth. Last words: Jason, my son.
• Jason is nearly killed when Ares stabs him in the chest. Fortunately, he is healed using the Golden Fleece.

1.10 - Cyrano de Hercules

• While not mortal, Galatea 'dies' after falling off a broken rope bridge and plunging to the bottom of a ravine. Last words: I have to.

• Ares tries to kill Hercules with a poisoned waterskin, but Lilith is suspicious of Ares and warns Hercules, so Hercules only pretends to die long enough to fool Ares into revealing himself.

1.15 - Ares on Trial

• Eurydice shoves Hercules out of the way of a killer vine sent by Bacchus and is hit by the vine instead. Last words: I met you too late.
