==Trivia==
==Trivia==
The {{Bow}}'s zebra accents are possibly a reference to Cairon, a centaur from Michael Ende's [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Neverending_Story Never-ending Story] who is described as being a zebra from the waist down. Cairon himself is an homage to Cheiron of Greek mythology, being a sagacious centaur who tutored such heroes as Achilles and Hercules.
