King Oedipus, the main character in the eponymous play, has some relations with many members of his family during the course of his life, but specifically his mother. He marries and has children with his mother. Along with this, Oedipus kills his father. Oedipus doesn't know what he's doing at the time, thinking that his mother and father are back in the city where he grew up, never knowing that he was adopted.
