Pyrrha Nikos

**Pyrrha Nikos** is a powerful chosen one from a far away land.

## Story

### Pyrrhic Victories

A young woman who lived the harsh life of a hero, she was granted a second chance upon dying, as a Divine Servant of Leo. As such, she was summoned by Mortimer Thule, who at first abused her and treated her as a tool to win a Servant War; however, Mortimer gradually warmed up to her, while Pyrrha defended her from various threats, including her opponent Tomoe Yamainu.

Pyrrha and Tomoe would later become quite close, and alongside Dakini, allow Pyrrha to defeat the opposing threat of Paul Seckendoff, and wishing to save Abel Dawne. Due to Mortimer's wish, they were transported to the Cheshire Isle, where Pyrrha met with Tomoe and Dakini once more, slowly rebuilding another life, and having a Future Child with Mortimer - Oreste Thule.

### Close to the Dark Seed

Pyrrha would later be summoned to another War as an arbiter, accompanied by Tomoe. There she encountered Roxanne, a powerful Tragoedia-cursed woman who forced Pyrrha to kill Tomoe, deeply scarring her. Pyrrha eventually managed to grasp to the last of her sanity to oppose and defeat Roxanne, before saving her by taking in her curse and bringing her back to the Cheshire Isle.

Another calling would bring Pyrrha to Circonfix, where she faced a vast conspiracy centered around the Dragon Grima. There, she managed to win her war and wished for Roxanne to be freed of her Tragoedia seed. Upon Pyrrha returning home, she was rejoined by Gawyn Belten, who shattered Roxanne's seed, preserving Pyrrha and Roxanne forever.

### Heroism in Twin Realm

Pyrrha, when she discovered the creation of another Timeline for Rokugan, elected to protect Tomoe by returning in time, disguising herself as **Pirua Suzume**. Unbeknownst to her however, the actions of Hamona caused another Tragoedia Seed of Torment to latch unto Pyrrha and accompany her to Rokugan. When Pirua, traveling with Tomoe and Zakuro Heichi, faced a critical situation, the Seed overpowered her.

Pyrrha's compatibility with Torment, however, was quite low, and the Seed instead used her body as an incubator to generate a second Seed, that of Acedia. Nevertheless, Pyrrha was confronted by Tomoe and Zakuro, as well as Mortimer, before she was fully corrupted, and they managed to extract the Seed from her, rescuing Pyrrha and allowing her to protect Tomoe and Rokugan from the wrath of Fu Leng, successfully protecting that Tomoe's life.

## Appearance

Pyrrha is a green-eyed young woman with her long red hair kept in a ponytail, dressed in gold, red and light brown armor, bearing a shield and sword on her arms.

## Personality

Pyrrha is a determined and humble person, who possesses a warrior's honor and unflinching devotion to superior precepts. Having spent her life devoting herself to an ideal, unable to care for herself, she puts up a facade of perfection and never disobeys an order. This is not to say Pyrrha cannot feel, however: her deep love for Dakini, Mortimer, Tomoe and latter Roxanne - and her wrath upon Roxanne forcing Pyrrha to kill Tomoe - hint at a feeling of helplessness Pyrrha does her best to bury everyday.
