Tros is a spiky, armored ball of an enemy seen in Skyworld's Fortress in Kid Icarus. They adopt a 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 high-powered, these guardians will be a major threat.
Appearances
Kid Icarus
"The fortress guard creature. It attacks with thorns that get shorter and longer. Its metallic body is extremely durable and it is a difficult creature to defeat."

Kid Icarus: Uprising
The Tros appears to be returning in this game as an enemy, resembling its previous appearance. However, it now has four blades instead of spikes and a much more prominent red eye.
Trivia
- In Greek mythology, Tros was father of 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.
- Tros may have inspired the Glunder/Glire/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.
