Trivia[]

Allusion[]

  • Saphron and Terra Cotta may also refer to the ancient Greek poetess Sappho of Lesbos, so famed for her romantic attraction to women that the name of her homeland coined the term "lesbian", and her own name coined the term "sapphic". Many of her works that survived did so on terra cotta pottery shards.

Color Naming Rule[]

  • The Arc siblings are all a color of the rainbow, with one set of twins. Saphron is orange.[1]
    • Saphron likely comes from either the color saffron, which is orange-yellow, or the spice saffron, which is a deep orange.

Media[]

  • She and Terra are the second example of same-gender parents in a Rooster Teeth production, after Ered's fathers from Camp Camp.
