After War Gundam X/WMG: Difference between revisions

Everywhere I look, Shagia Frost's Gundam is named "Virsago", but when he said it, it sounded more like "Vasago". Well, Vassago (double s) is [http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/:Vassago |a demon prince]] from a 17th century grimoire called the ''[http://en.[wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Lesser_Key_of_Solomon:The Lesser Key of Solomon|Lesser Key of Solomon]]''. Now, while I can't pin down the original source of the description (Google returns a lot of results), one of Vassago's forms is supposed to be a red dragon with green eyes. The Gundam "Virsago" is red, has draconic features, and has green eyes. Finally, also in the ''Lesser Key of Solomon'' (going by Wikipedia, anyway; I don't exactly have a copy on hand) is another demon named Astaroth, sometimes said Ashtaroth, which is pretty close to Gundam Ashtaro'''n'''. Furthermore, Vassago is supposed to be a prince, while Astaroth is supposed to be a duke, which can be ranked below a prince assuming the prince is a monarch. This would fit with Shagia being the elder brother, and Olba being the younger. Given, Astaroth is never described as looking like a one-eyed crab (though that would be [[Eldritch Abomination|kind of awesome]]), so the comparison isn't perfect, but at the least it's a freaky coincidence.
