  • Astyanax is a scrolling video game initially released in the arcades (titled The Astyanax), and later ported to the NES. The two games each have a different plot, with the arcade version revolving around the warrior Roche and the NES version around a sixteen year old named, appropriately, Astyanax who has recurring dreams of a princess shouting for help. One thing follows another and he inevitably sets off on his quest to save the princess he has seen in his dreams.
  • Astyanax is the son of Herakles and Epilais who is one of the daughters of King Thespius. During his stay in the court of King Thespius, Herakles impregnated 49 out of the 50 of Thespius' daughters including Epilais who he lay with one night. The result of that particular encounter was Astyanax.
