Alastor (Lycian)

Alastor, a Lycian, who was a companion of Sarpedon, and was slain by Odysseus.

Alastorides is a patronymic form given by Homer to Tros, who was probably a son of the Lycian Alastor mentioned above

He killed Koiranos, Alastor, Chromios, Alkandros, Halios, Noemon, and Prytanis, and would have slain yet more, had not great Hektor marked him, and sped to the front of the fight clad in his suit of mail, filling the Danaans with terror

Homer, Iliad 5.677
Ovid, Metamorphoses 13.257
