A comparison of Pyra's two major reveals, her first apperance in Xenoblade & In Smash Bros Ultimate! Who is Pyra? She is a main character in Xenoblade Chronicles 2. She is the Aegis, a Legendary Blade who can grant tremendous fire-elemental power to her Driver, Rex. Pyra and Rex embark on a journey to search for Elysium, and Rex is devoted to protecting her. Due to sharing her life force with Rex, Pyra is not able to recover from injuries like other Blades, and is as vulnerable to damage as any other human. If any of the two were to die, the other would follow. Pyra is a Blade, which are personifications of weapons used by Drivers. Pyra specifically is the Aegis, a legendary Blade with fire elemental abilities. Rex, the protagonist of Xenoblade Chronicles 2, becomes the Driver to Pyra and their life forces are connected. If either were to die in combat, the other were to die with them. Rex vows to protect Pyra on their shared quest to find the paradise land of Elysium.

Pyra is a split personality of Mythra, who created and transformed into Pyra to cope with the grief of her involvement in the Aegis war and the destruction of Auresco. Addam, her Driver at the time, put Pyra in stasis on the Ancient Ship and sank it under the Cloud Sea to prevent her from reawakening and losing control. 500 years later, Rex, a Leftherian salvager, was involved on a salvaging expedition that found the Ancient Ship and brought it above the water for investigation. Rex accidentally touches the core crystal of Aegis and is promptly killed by Jin, the antagonist of the game. Just before Rex died, his mind is transported to an astral version of Elysium, where he meets Pyra for the first time. Rex agrees to become Pyra's Driver, and their newly shared life force resurrects him. The two managed to escape Jin and go on an adventure to find Elysium. Along the way, they amass a party of other Blades and Drivers that have similar goals.

After both have a near death experience at the hands of Obrona, a secondary antagonist, Mythra is forced to reawaken and save Rex. After a while of reluctantly allowing herself to used in battles, Mythra becomes more open and willing to work with Rex, and the two eventually learn to swap between each other during a battle.

The party learns that Malos, another antagonist, requires Pyra's memories to regain his lost powers. Pyra offers herself in exchange for the safety of her friends. After her memories were taken, Pyra becomes unusable as a Blade, but suffers no physical effects. The party comes to rescue Pyra, with Rex fighting without the Aegis due Malos taking his powers away. Pyra and Mythra urge Rex to flee and leave them to die, but he refuses, saying that he is still their protector and will take them to Elysium. The sheer amount of willpower Rex displays causes Pyra and Mythra to merge together and form Pneuma, the ultimate form of Aegis. The party then confronts Malos and kill him in a final battle. Pneuma sacrifices herself to save the party from the collapsing world tree, dying in an explosion. However, after the rebirth of the world, the core crystal of Aegis glows again. Rex touches it and Pyra and Mythra appear in seperate bodies. It is left ambiguous if the two

Pyra was designed by Masatsugu Saitō, the lead character designer for the game.
