Wikipedia
Phthonus
In Greek mythology, Phthonos (Greek: Φθόνος, Phthónos) was the personification of jealousy and envy, most prominently in matters of romance. In Nonnus's Dionysiaca, he is by proxy the cause of Semele's death, having informed Hera of Zeus's affair with the princess. He also appears in Callimachus's Hymn to Apollo, goading the god into an argument.
