===Final Fantasy XIV===
Phlegethon, formerly known as Acheron, is the final boss of . Phlegethon was a legendary hero of the commonfolk who once led a revolt against he Allagan Empire. Captured by the Empire, he was among the many revolutionaries used as test subjects by the technologist Amon, chimerically augmenting them in an attempt to achieve immortality for the Allagans. The experiments forcibly warped Phlegethon's body, turning him into a golden-skinned giant, but also broke his mind, and led to him being conditioned to serve the Empire unquestioningly.
Inserted as a reference to the Titan of the Ancients' Maze in Final Fantasy III, and named as such in the Japanese localization, Phlegethon was originally named Acheron in the English localization, after a palette swap of Titan, as the name Titan was already in use by the primal Titan. Once the developers began work on , they realized they wanted the Acheron name for enemies encountered there instead. The boss Acheron was thus renamed Phlegethon in the English localization. The change was acknowledged in-game as historians having a case of mistaken identity, mistaking the legendary hero Phlegethon as a different hero named Acheron.
