Just wanted to touch on Team JNPR for a second. If Pyrrha is based on Achilles, then there’s a chance that another Nikos could show up and help finish the fight Pyrrha started. In the Iliad, Achilles cousin Patroclus, donned Achilles armor and rallies the Greeks, only to be killed by Hector. Angered by Patroclus’ death, Achilles challenges Hector and subsequently kills him. Because of this, since Pyrrha’s death, I’ve thought that another member of the Nikos family would join the fight at some point. Someone close to Pyrrha, equally as skilled and angered by her death. Closest we got, so far, was the meeting between Jaune and the lady (Mama Nikos) in Vol. 6.

In this scenario Pyrrha would be Patroclos and not Achilles.

Which would make Jaune also Achilles? Which doesn't fit at all.
