	Stentor's fate is affected by one of the first choices the protagonist makes: whether to kill or spare Nikolaos in "[[The Wolf of Sparta]]". If Nikolaos is killed, Stentor attacks the protagonist immediately afterwards. Regardless of how the situation is resolved, Stentor will re-appear in Boeotia, his face now scarred. Without Nikolaos to break up the standoff, the protagonist will have to fight and defeat Stentor, after which his men will abandon him. With Stentor begging for death, the player is given the choice to kill or spare him. If spared, Stentor will be exiled and will become a mercenary bearing the epithet "The Fallen", hunting the protagonist until slain or recruited. If recruited in this manner Stentor will be verbally hostile while serving as a Lieutenant aboard the ''Adrestia''. If Stentor is slain, a clue for the [[~~Pausanias~~ of ~~Sparta~~\|Sage]] of the [[Peloponnesian League (Cult of Kosmos)\|Peloponnesian League]] branch of the [[Cult of Kosmos]] is gained, possibly revealing Stentor's awareness of the Cult and that he was being groomed to join that branch's ranks.

In said account, Stentor was a disguise worn by the goddess [[Hera]].

	Stentor's fate is affected by one of the first choices the Eagle Bearer makes: whether to kill or spare Nikolaos in "[[The Wolf of Sparta]]". Sparing Nikolaos allows Stentor and Nikolaos to join the crew of the ''[[Adrestia]]'' later on. If Nikolaos is killed, Stentor attacks the Eagle Bearer immediately afterwards. Regardless of how the situation is resolved, Stentor will re-appear in Boeotia, face scarred. Without Nikolaos present to stop the battle after conquering Boeotia, Stentor and the Eagle Bearer will engage on the battlegrounds. During the battle Stentor will mention eradicating the Eagle Bearer's "filthy bloodline". After Stentor is beaten, his men will turn on him and abandon him, and he'll beg for death. If spared, Stentor will be exiled and become a mercenary bearing the epithet "The Fallen", hunting Kassandra until slain or recruited. If recruited in this manner Stentor will be verbally hostile while serving as a Lieutenant aboard the ''Adrestia''. If Stentor is slain, a clue for the [[Pausanias of Sparta\|Sage]] of the [[Peloponnesian League (Cult of Kosmos)\|Peloponnesian League]] branch of the [[Cult of Kosmos]] is gained, possibly revealing Stentor's awareness of the Cult and that he was being groomed to join that branch's ranks.

Regardless of how the situation is resolved, Stentor will re-appear in Boeotia, face scarred. Without Nikolaos present to stop the battle after conquering Boeotia, Stentor and the Eagle Bearer will engage on the battlegrounds. During the battle Stentor will mention eradicating the Eagle Bearer's "filthy bloodline". After Stentor is beaten, his men will turn on him and abandon him, and he'll beg for death. If spared, Stentor will be exiled and become a mercenary bearing the epithet "The Fallen", hunting Kassandra until slain or recruited. If recruited in this manner Stentor will be verbally hostile while serving as a Lieutenant aboard the ''Adrestia''. If Stentor is slain, a clue for the [[Pausanias of Sparta\|Sage]] of the [[Peloponnesian League (Cult of Kosmos)\|Peloponnesian League]] branch of the [[Cult of Kosmos]] is gained, possibly revealing Stentor's awareness of the Cult and that he was being groomed to join that branch's ranks. However, this clue is not enough by itself to reveal the Sage.
	*Stentor's childhood ~~could~~ allude to him being a ''trophimos'' or ''syntrophos'', a non-citizen adopted and raised to the ''Spartiate'' class.
			Stentor's allegiance and awareness of the Cult if Nikolaos is alive are unknown, canon-wise, although scanning Stentor with [[Ikaros]] in-game reveals he carries the letter on his person, both before and after the duel is interrupted.

			Stentor's childhood may allude to him being a ''trophimos'' or ''syntrophos'', a non-citizen adopted and raised to the ''Spartiate'' class.
