Etymology

A Thyrsus, or thyrsos (Ancient Greek: θύρσος), was a wand or staff of giant fennel (Ferula communis) covered with ivy vines and leaves, sometimes wound with taeniae and topped with a pine cone or by a bunch of vine-leaves and grapes or ivy-leaves and berries. The thyrsus, associated with Dionysus (or Bacchus) and his followers, the Satyrs and Maenads (or Bacchants), is a symbol of prosperity, fertility, hedonism, and pleasure/enjoyment in general.

Trivia

• Excluding the Sword of the Creator and Blutgang, Thyrsus is the only Hero's Relic that is never wielded by an unrecruited student after the time-skip. This is likely because its heir cannot use magic when they are encountered as an enemy, thus not having a use for it.
