I dunno man, it's like the Greeks worshipped him. but...all the literature makes him sound like a whiney, spoiled, brat. I'm not sure how I want to play this. Any thoughts? How have you felt about Achilles in myth/stories/tv?
I wish I could remember him from the Iliad. He seemed somewhat bad-ass.
The fact that it's commonplace to refer to someone's Achilles' heel does say something of the resilience of his character. Even if it is his worst quality. Modern day language doesn't have an abundance of Greek Myth references. Aside from Anchorman referring to the beard of Zeus in relation to hot weather lol.
That all being said my input is: I don't know either.
