Name: Pyrrha Alexandra
Age: 6
Gender: Female
Fighting Style: Too young to fight
Weapon: -
Weapon Name: -
Place of Birth: Athens, Ottoman Empire (Present-day Greece)
Appearance: Pyrrha will one day grow up into an attractive young woman, but she is currently a small and rather sickly-looking little girl; her facial resemblance to Sophitia is unmistakable, down to having the exact same eyes, but Pyrrha's complexion has paled considerably, giving her an unhealthy look when combined with her reedy physique; nearly dying at three years old and enduring another three with no company but Tira has done little for Pyrrha's health, and so a causal observer would see a shabbily-dressed girl of six with short, pale blonde hair, an extremely delicate-looking frame, and distinct and worrying shadows under her eyes from hardship and sleepless nights. Closer to Soul Edge or its energy, however, Pyrrha's complexion takes on a healthier shade, and she looks more like an ordinary child.
Alliance: Dark Alliance (Unintentional)
Personality: Pyrrha did not begin her life of captivity peacefully; while initially too innocent and curious to suspect anything of the young woman who abducted her, Pyrrha tried to run away and go home several times and tried to avoid Tira's presence until Sophitia was forced into Soul Edge's service, quieting her homesickness. However, after the events of Nightmare's defeat, Pyrrha's spirit was drained out of her by sickness, and she is now a quiet and pliable child. Her age and innocence means she doesn't really understand hating someone, so her extreme dislike for Tira has bled away into an odd mixture of fear and trust; Pyrrha is scared to death of Tira's temper, but actually thinks of her captor as her best friend the rest of the time, and naively believes from their time working together that Tira and Sophitia are friends.
Pyrrha is by nature nonviolent and even rather cowardly compared to how spirited she was living at home, but Soul Edge's presence has a worrying effect on her personality even as it improves her health. Fragments or even just the energy of the Evil Sword make Pyrrha strong and healthy again, but they also make her irrational, petulant, and even violent, although still only as dangerous as any small child driven to violence.
Background/History: Of Sophitia's children, Pyrrha was the one who was left unattended long enough for Tira to abduct for Soul Edge while Sophitia was returning home. The girl's infection with Soul Edge's evil energies, inherited unwittingly from her mother, was made complete almost the moment she came into contact with the sword; from that day forth, Pyrrha could no longer survive in a world without Soul Edge's power. The girl was too young to recognize any of this, however, and Soul Edge's influence made her wild and attempt to escape home many times. Eventually, Tira was able to quiet Pyrrha's feeble attempts to run away by making Sophitia serve Soul Edge to protect her. The presence of her mother blinded Pyrrha to the terrible danger all around her, and she had no understanding of the struggles that ensued.
When Nightmare was defeated however, Pyrrha felt the sword's pain as Siegfried struck its avatar down, and nearly died from the shock. Sophitia mistakenly believed Pyrrha killed outright by Soul Edge's defeat, but Tira found the girl alive but gravely ill, and kept her alive as a future host for Soul Edge.
After the first year of Tira's dubious care, Pyrrha was no longer in danger of dying, but she was left and remains a weak and fragile child, and she's become far more timid and easy for Tira to manipulate due to the reluctant bonds they formed when Tira saved her life. Pyrrha doesn't know or understand what Soul Edge is or how she's connected to it, but she DOES know that the strange metal fragments Tira keeps make her pain and weakness go away for a while; she follows Tira around willingly, believing that Tira knows a way to make her well again, and that she can go home to her mother once she's healthy.
Relations:
Sophitia- Mother
Rothion- Father
Patroklos- Brother
Lucius- Uncle
Cassandra- Aunt
Tira- Captor/Guardian/Only Friend
Soul Edge- Potential master
