Petruchio

A weak young man who works in one of the Montagues’ mines and is saved from being crushed by Romeo. He and Romeo eventually become friends. Originally sent to the mines for stealing bread for his starving family, he is desperate to return to Neo Verona because his younger brother and sister are still there. Petruchio dies from illness, albeit peacefully, after Romeo promises to give his siblings a ride on his dragon steed, which leaves Romeo visibly distraught. After Montague’s death and his self banishment from Neo Verona, Romeo asks Tybalt to find and care for Petruchio’s siblings. Petruchio’s name is likely a nod to the character from The Taming of the Shrew, one of Shakespeare’s early comedies. From wikipedia
