Profile
Origin
In Greek myth, Penthesilea was an Amazon queen and daughter of Ares. She assisted Troy in the Trojan war and was killed by Achilles.[1]
Design
Penthesilea's appearance is that of a warrior queen. It wears metallic armor on its body and face, and wears a crown on its head, signifying its queenly position. It holds a dagger in its right hand, while in its left hand, it wields a rapier. Her right breastplate lacks a design on it in reference to the myth that female Greek Amazonian warriors would sever their breasts to become better archers.[citation needed]
