'''Nikolaos' Sword''' was a [[sword]] which belonged to [[Nikolaos]], a [[Sparta]]n [[Polemarch|general]] who lived during the 5th century BCE.

In 431 BCE, the sword was claimed by Nikolaos' stepdaughter [[Kassandra]] after she confronted him atop a hill in [[Megaris]] following Sparta's victory over [[Athens]] in the region.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey]]'' – [[The Wolf of Sparta]]</ref>

==Behind the scenes==
Nikolaos' Sword strongly resembles the swords used by the Spartans in the 2006 film ''{{Wiki|300 (film)|300}}''. In addition to this, the game files and concept art of ''[[Assassin's Creed: Odyssey]]'' call the sword 'Leonidas Sword', suggesting the sword originally belonged to King [[Leonidas I of Sparta]].
