Lyra Orpheus

Lyra Orpheus is one of Silver Saints. He appeared in the first Saint Seiya movie called "Jashin Eris" were he was part of a group of revived Saints called "Ghost Five". His technique is Stringer Requiem.

Plot Overview
Orpheus is the legendary mythical person, as expressed by Andromeda Shun. After his failure to bring Eurydice back, he died with regrets. This led him to gladly taking Eris' offer and being revived in a new body. As he faced Andromeda Shun, Orpheus seemed to be a calm and subtle person, but as the fight progressed, he showed his darker side. After ensnaring and almost killing Shun with his Stringer Requiem attack, Orpheus was cut short by Phoenix Ikki's arrival. Ikki attacked with Phoenix Phantom Fist, but since Orpheus has already suffrered through hell, he brushed the attack off easily. Wasting no time, Orpheus attacking with Stringer Requiem again, but this time Ikki unleashed his Phoenix Flaming Wings attack and Orpheus was killed.

Concept & Creation
With the success of the Saint Seiya franchise in both anime & manga form, a movie was proposed by Toei. Masami Kurumada participated in the production and after 3 months he contributed with the new Saints. Orpheus is named after a Greek mythical musician, as Lyra was. As the Sagitta Cloth was created by Kurumada for the movie and later appeared in the original story, many assume the Orion & Lyra Cloths will too.
