'''Pyrrhon''' is a major character in ''[[Kid Icarus: Uprising]]''. He is said to be the self proclaimed god of the sun, and assists [[Pit]] in fighting off an alien invasion. He appears during the Aurum arc of the main story (''[[Mysterious Invaders]]'', ''[[The Aurum Hive]]'', and ''[[The Aurum Brain]]'') as an ally in the former two and a brainwashed antagonist in the latter. His primary method of offense is his ability to manipulate fire and use it to attack enemies and his ability to fly fast. He is depicted as a strong head superhero-like character with a large ego and surprising intelligence, although the latter two traits do conflict with each other sometimes when Pyrrhon talks. | '''Pyrrhon''', known in Japan as '''Lars, the Sun God''' (太陽神ラーズ, Taiyō-shin rāzu), is a major character in ''[[Kid Icarus: Uprising]]''.

Pyrrhon has arguably the biggest ego of any other character in the game, but at the same time he seems to be somewhat crazy as he usually addresses himself in third-person. Despite his odd quirks, Pyrrhon is a cunning "god", as he managed to trick Pit and the other deities to reach his goal into manipulating the Aurum via the [[Aurum Brain]] to conquer the planet. | Pyrrhon has arguably the biggest ego of any other character in the game, but at the same time he seems to be somewhat crazy as he usually addresses himself in third-person.

Pyrrhon makes his first appearance in the flight section of ''The Mysterious Invaders'' as an ally of Pit to help defeat the Aurum. After Pit annihilates the [[Aurum Core]], he saves the angel from the explosion when the Core was destroyed. | Pyrrhon makes his first appearance in the flight section of ''The Mysterious Invaders'' as an ally of Pit to help defeat the Aurum.

In the [[The Aurum Brain|last chapter of the Aurum invasion]], Pyrrhon joins Pit and the other gods in the final battle to get rid of the aliens once and for all. He leads the angel into the [[Aurum Fortress]] where the Aurum Brain resides and tells him to shoot at it. As Pit opens fire at the Brain, Pyrrhon suddenly then merges with it by entering the yellowish core. This action causes a destructive explosion, but Pit quickly manages to escape in time. Pyrrhon then appears as a large astral projection in front of Pit, and reveals he has been using the angel the entire time to take control of the Aurum. Pyrrhon's control causes the Aurum troops to change color into a bright red and become even more powerful. Pyrrhon then even tries to destroy Pit by interfering Palutena's ability to extract Pit when the [[Power of Flight]] was running out. As Pit continues his assault on the Aurum, Pyrrhon again attempts to get rid of him by firing a powerful blast of fire, but the angel is luckily protected by the [[Forces of Nature]] blocking the attack for him. Once finally Pit reaches the Aurum Brain again, he discovers that Pyrrhon is starting to become overrun by the Brain itself and loses control. Pyrrhon evntually becomes [[Aurum Pyrrhon]] and begins to viciously attack Pit and claims to devour the planet. After Pit defeats the brainwashed Pyrrhon, the explosion causes the Aurum Fortress to be sent to the other side of the galaxy, ending the Aurum threat; however, Pyrrhon's fate is unknown. | In the [[The Aurum Brain|last chapter of the Aurum invasion]], Pyrrhon joins Pit and the other gods in the final battle to get rid of the aliens once and for all.

''The self-proclaimed "Sun God" who is investigating—and entranced by—the wondrous and alien Aurum. Pyrron's massive ego seems inversely proportional to his intelligence, making his boasts of divine lineage a bit hard to swallow.'' | |||

*Pyrrhon is likely inspired by [[wikipedia:Apollo|Apollo]] or [[wikipedia:Helios|Helios]], which were both Greek gods of the sun, although his name appears to be based on [[wikipedia:Pyrrho|Pyrrho]], a Greek philosopher. It might also come from the word "pyro", which means fire. | *Pyrrhon is likely inspired by [[wikipedia:Apollo|Apollo]] or [[wikipedia:Helios|Helios]], which were both Greek gods of the sun, although his name appears to be based on [[wikipedia:Pyrrho|Pyrrho]], a Greek philosopher.
