'''Tros''' is a spiky, armored ball of an enemy seen in [[Skyworld]]'s [[Fortress]] in ''[[Kid Icarus]]''. They adopt a [[Enemy Tactics#Swarm|swarming tactic]]. [[Pit]] must be careful and quick in order to minimize the damage inflicted by these monsters. The manual describes them pretty accurately; unless Pit is sufficiently [[Arrow of Strength|high-powered]], these guardians will be a major threat. | '''Tros''' (トロス ''Torosu'') is a spiky, armored ball of an enemy seen in [[Skyworld]]'s [[Fortress]] in ''[[Kid Icarus]]''.

Although Tros do not appear in this game, Ganewmedes fire spiked projectiles that suspiciously look similar to them. Also, the new enemy called the [[Splin]] may have been inspired by the Tros. | |||

*In Greek mythology, Tros was father of [[Ganewmede|Ganymede]] who grieved for his son after he was taken by Zeus up to Olympus. In return, Zeus granted him two horses that could run over water. Hermes had even comforted Tros that his son was now serving a much higher honor. | *In Greek mythology, [[wikipedia:Tros (mythology)|Tros]] was father of [[Ganewmede|Ganymede]] who grieved for his son after he was taken by Zeus up to Olympus.

*Tros may have inspired the [[smashwiki:Glunder|Glunder]]/[[smashwiki:Glire|Glire]]/[[smashwiki:Glice|Glice]] family of enemies that appear in the [[Subspace Emissary]], being quite similar appearance-wise. Coincidentally, Glunders first appear in the Skyworld stage of the storyline. | *Tros may have inspired the [[smashwiki:Glunder|Glunder]]/[[smashwiki:Glire|Glire]]/[[smashwiki:Glice|Glice]] family of enemies that appear in the [[smashwiki:Subspace Emissary|''Subspace Emissary'']], being quite similar appearance-wise.
