In Greek mythology, the character who pretends to be Achilles is Odysseus. During the Trojan War, to prevent Achilles from joining the Greek forces, Odysseus disguises himself as a messenger and offers gifts to Achilles while also trying to ascertain his whereabouts. In some versions, he goes so far as to dress as a woman and hides among the daughters of King Lycomedes, revealing Achilles' true identity when he is discovered. This clever ruse highlights Odysseus' wit and cunning.
