Nicostratus (mythology)

Nicostratus (Ancient Greek: Νικόστρατος) is a mythological figure, a son of Menelaus either by Helen of Troy[1][2] or a slave woman named Pieris.[3]

Although not an important figure in most accounts of the Trojan War, he is the central character in The Luck of Troy, a modern version of the story by Roger Lancelyn Green.

gollark: Okay, 90% may be a bit hyperbolic, maybe 10%.
