- - Pyrrhon
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.
