The infant son of Hector and Andromache who was murdered during the Trojan War by Neoptolemus, who threw him from a wall near the city.
Astyanax was killed because his father had been killed by Achilles, and Neoptolemnus, Achilles' son, believed the baby would grow up and want revenge.

a mythological greek hero, but much more interestingly a videogame with a kick-ass plot (drama, death, sacrifice, scary dreams, guys with naked thighs, everything!) for the NES.
"Astyanax... Astyanax... you are chosen or something... come rescue me..." -- dream thingy with groovy music
