That one is a screenshot that I actually took shortly after the episode premiered. I had noticed no one added a screenshot of the trident form to his weapon page's gallery, so I took the screenshot.

Either way, even if he doesn't have a lot in common with Neptune/Poseidon, I'm pretty sure that's what he's supposed to allude to.


 * We've got the trident


 * Neptune, literally the Roman name for Poseidon


 * Vasilias is a variant of the Greek word Basileus, meaning "leader, prince, king or emperor." Neptune/Poseidon is often referred to as King of the Sea.

I mean, look at Jaune. He alludes to Joan of Arc, and all we really have with him is the name Jaune Arc and, I guess, the fact that he snuck into Beacon. But Ren didn't sneak into Beacon, and he alludes to Mulan. All Ren has is his Chinese-themed attire, the fact that Ren means lotus, and his emblem is a lotus, if that counts for anything. Nora alludes to Thor, and all she really has is the hammer, the last name Valkyrie, and the fact that her emblem is a hammer with a lightning bolt through it.
