He's done pretty well, for a marionette...
~ Zeus talking about Icarus

Summary

Once a powerful demigod—and the son of Zeus—Heracles had his soul mysteriously split apart during one of Daedalus' experiments. One part of his soul fled into a marionette created by Daedalus, and thus, this hero was born. Prior to being possessed, this marionette was said to have flown away from his homeland using a homemade pair of wings.

After having crash landed on a beach, this marionette was dubbed Heracles by a group of Nymphs who sensed the powerful soul within him. However, to conceal his supposed identity, Heracles was renamed Icarus by his allies, which just so happened to be the name of the late son of his creator, Daedalus.

Suffering through amnesia, the newly-named Icarus went along with companions he met along the way, on to Mount Olympus where he fought many dangerous and earth-shaking creatures, all just to find out who he was.

Powers and Stats

Tier: Low 7-C, possibly 5-B

Name: Icarus (Called Heracles by Nymphs, and Marionette by Daedalus and Zeus)

Origin: Glory of Heracles

Gender: Male

Age: Unknown, Physically mid-to-late teens

Classification: Demigod, Immortal, Marionette

Powers and Abilities: Fire Manipulation (Byrn/Byrnge/Byrngarm), Electricity Manipulation (Fulg/Fulgar/Fulgarum), Earth Manipulation (Queth/Quaithe/Quaithar), Ice Manipulation (Ise/Isell/Isellam), Healing (Pow/Powra/Powtes), Resurrection (Illume/Illumore), Paralysis Inducement (Paralyze), Status Effect Inducement, Immortality

Attack Potency: Small Town level (Comparable to Eris), possibly Planet level (Defeated Typhon, who threatened the existence of the entire Earth, according to Cassandra the Prophet)

Speed: Massively Hypersonic combat speed (Can dodge lightning strikes such as Fulg)

Lifting Strength: Unknown

Striking Strength: Small Town level, possibly Planet level

Durability: Small Town level (Comparable to Eris, who survived the destruction of Corinth, Greece , at point blank range ), possibly Planet level (Survived hits from Typhon)

Stamina: Fairly high. He is Immortal, and so he has heightened stamina, to go with his quick speed. Requires rest to fight at full power, and gets tired when battered enough. Takes reflux damage if he uses up all his magic reserve.

Range: Standard melee range, although it is extended to a meter with use of his swords. Dozens of meters when using magical attacks.

Standard Equipment: The Titan Sword (a legendary sword forged by Hephaestus), Ceranus (a spear forged by Zeus), Olympian Shield (a shield that channels the power of Olympus), standard Spartan equipment.

Intelligence: Was a Marionette created by Daedalus, and so it is assumed that he has some of his knowledge. Despite having gone through a state of amnesia, Icarus seems to still posses fluency in both the Greek language, and intelligence in battle technique. Mainly stays silent throughout the game, and so he doesn't provide much input in figuring out puzzles.

Weaknesses: Icarus is inexperienced, having not been originally created for battle. He doesn't talk much, and often relies on the assistance of allies during tough battles. Running out of Magic Power leaves him without many hard-hitting attacks. Additionally, using magic while his magic pool is empty deals reflux damage to him.

  • Shrugged off falling from the seventh floor of a tower.
