User blog comment:ACWeapons/How much armor would RWBY characters need?/@comment-26397825-20151211114033/@comment-26397825-20151211122459

The main problem is that the Greeks and Romans actually shared a lot of things; their Pantheon being the main one. A lot of the Greek and Roman gods were actually the same god, just under a different name. Don't let that fool you though; they really didn't get along.

But their armour is completely different, so I don't really know how they can confuse Pyrrha for Roman when she is in Greek styled armour. Her legs are very definitely Greek in style - though they didn't actually have full leg armour, only shin greaves. Plus her weapon, which is a Greek shield and Greek sword. She's not very Roman at all.

Maybe it's the red, since Romans were known for wearing red and Greeks are usually pictured wearing the white togas and dresses...
