Pyra is a {{iw|xsw|Blade|XC2}}, a personification of a weapon, whose purpose is to fight alongside a {{iw|xsw|Driver}} in the world of {{iw|xsw|Alrest}}. She is also the {{iw|xsw|Aegis}}, a specific legendary Blade said to have much grander powers. The protagonist [[Rex]] awakens her while he's within a sunken {{iw|xsw|Ancient Ship}} on a salvaging mission, and in the following events, he becomes her Driver. They form a party searching for a way to reach {{iw|xsw|Elysium}}, the fabled paradise atop the {{iw|xsw|World Tree}} said to hold a way to avoid the world's sinking continents. Over the course of her adventure with Rex, much of Pyra's past is revealed - most importantly, she is actually an alternate personality of [[Mythra]], the true form of the Aegis who locked herself away for the guilt and regret over what she did to Alrest in the war five hundred years ago. Eventually, Rex connects with both Pyra and Mythra well enough that their trust produces a third form, {{iw|xsw|Pneuma}}, who is able to bestow Rex with additional "Master Driver" powers over Blades and the world at large.

Pyra's personality is mostly a reflection of the person Mythra wishes she was: sweet, caring, graceful, and an excellent cook. While she seems softer on the surface, she is actually the more stubborn one, and tends to take the lead more often once they begin swapping freely. Like Mythra, she is afraid of her powers, and is willing to go a long way to ensure they cannot be misused.

During ''Ultimate''{{'}}s development, [[Masahiro Sakurai]] considered adding characters from {{uv|ARMS}} and ''Xenoblade Chronicles 2''; however, as their games were announced after he completed the roster early in development in order to secure all returning fighters, he passed them over, and Sakurai chose to have Pyra be a spirit instead. Like Shulk's English voice actor Adam Howden for ''Super Smash Bros. 4'', on June 29, 2020, before her official reveal, Pyra's English voice actress, Skye Bennett, had [https://twitter.com/sdsjb/status/1277657292654153728 posted on her Twitter] that she had done recording for a game that has "lots of screaming". A little over two years after the game's release, Pyra would be announced as the tenth DLC fighter alongside Mythra in the February 17, 2021 Nintendo Direct. A character showcase was streamed March 4th, 2021 (March 5th in some time zones), with Pyra being released later that same day.
