As you know, there is a lot of crossover between Roman and Greek paganism and mythology. Jupiter in Rome was Zeus in Greece, for example. However, what you might not know is that the Heroes of Greece were also adopted into Roman culture. Odysseus was called Ulysses, Aeneas is a charecter in both the Illiad, a greek poem, and the Aeneid, a roman "sequel" so to speak.
Quite little known however, is the Roman equivalent of Achillies, Bophadee. The stories are similar. His mother dipped him in the river of the underworld to ensure his immortality, save for the one spot from which she held him. He became a great warrior, fighting in some of the most crucial battles, rising through the ranks of command.
And just like Achilles, Bophadee had a weakness. A weakness that, ultimately, led to his death. What was this weakness, that like Achillies' heel, slew the mighty warrior?
Bophadee's Nuts.
