Cupid (Latin for "Desire") was the supreme god of passionate love, eros and affection. His mother Venus, the goddess of love, was also the war-god Mars' daughter. As Amor (Love) in Latin and Eros in Greek mythology, Cupid wielded incredible power. The bow and arrow he wielded could ignite passion even in those resistant to it, sending those who got hit careening uncontrollably towards romance. Myths usually portrayed Cupid as a background figure triggering major plot points, though his pivotal role stood out when injured by one of his own arrows in the legend of Psyche. This marked an intense test for Cupid himself – and revealed what happens to even gods and goddesses in love. Other long-form stories are few, yet poetry, painting and literature have given birth to vibrant interpretations depicting various themes such as "Love triumphs over everything." or cruel Cupid meting out torment. Roman and classical art frequently included multiple representations of the Amores or amorini, Roman Cupid equivalent for erotes. Putti (from 15th century art) began appearing alongside and blending with iconography for Roman art – their forms intermingling during centuries.

For popular media today cupid usually inspires true love or an occasion like valentine, showing drawing his bow for sparking romantic flames in some people's hearts to the rest who would still remain unmoved as he did when someone was shot.
