Background information
Lycus, from the Greek word meaning 'wolf', is the name of several Greek rivers and mythological figures. It is unclear if this is the intended reference, however, since the Japanese spelling 'リュカス' (lyukasu) does not correspond with this name; rather, it is a possible transliteration of the name Lucas.
