A Pyrrhic Nikos, A Pyr of different kindling

When Pyrrha was born to Medusa and Palladium Nikos, it was a blessing indeed...and when her year-younger brother, Alexandros, was born...it was less well received. Not because he was unwanted, but because he came out...soft, nearly identical to Pyrrha. Mistral dislikes the different, only accepting them if they prove themselves 'Worthy' of being acknowledged. Can a soft-spoken Nikos rise from the bottom to the top, and prove himself worthy of his name, given in ironic humor?
also, why does he have a second semblance, and why is it so insistent on him growing strong...?

Pyrrha has a brother!Au, and of course, as I love to do, Gamer aspects inbound. however, this will be a 'Gamer Lite' style of 'system'. Features dark elements, neglect, mutilation, and mental issues. also, obviously, Canon divergence. *a lot* of Canon divergence.

Also...CURSE YOU, BAYLE! AND YOUR IMPACT ON MY STORY! : )
