Ico

Ico (simply pronounced "ee-co") is a young main hero of the PlayStation-exclusive video game title of the same name, along with his travelling companion Yorda. He is a current victim of a mysterious curse that manifests in dual large horns growing on his helmet. Any misfortune that befalls his hometown is blamed on him, dooming him to the alienation. On his twelfth birthday, a group of handful horsemen captured him in the shackles to a mysterious castle full of unsolved puzzles and put him inside a coffin to starve, hoping his apprehensiveness will rid the town of trouble.

Trivia
