Charybdis is a monster from Greek Mythology linked with, you guessed it, whirlpools. Specifically, a whirlpool. It supposedly lived under the sea on one side of a narrow straight, with Scylla(the same creature Scylla from the MGE is based on) living in a cave on the other side. Charybdis would sink ships and consume the sailors, while Scylla would eat any survivors after scooping them out of the water with her tentacles..
