Lugos (died 2nd century CE) was one of the founders of the Liberalis Circulum, a group of Hidden Ones operating throughout the territories of the Roman Empire.
Biography[edit | edit source]
Mission to Egypt and death[edit | edit source]
In the mid-2nd century, Lugos traveled to Egypt to recover two Pieces of Eden, the Ankh and the Scepter of Aset, which had been found in a pyramid by Roman plunderers. However, while trying to bring the artifacts to Rome across the Mediterranean Sea, a terrible storm opened an enormous waterway within his ship, causing it to sink. Before his demise, Lugos recorded a message with the Ankh, detailing the ongoing events and lamenting his mission's failure.[1]
Legacy[edit | edit source]
Lugos was still remembered as one of the founders of the Liberalis Circulum in the mid-3rd century. By 259, the Ankh had somehow ended up in Germania, where it was found by an Alemanni member of the Liberalis Circulum, Accipiter, who passed it on to his cousin and fellow member Aquilus. Eventually, following Aquilus' death, the Ankh was hidden within an altar erected to his memory by his wife Valeria.[1]
In the early 13th century, the Scepter of Aset was recovered from the wreck of Lugos' ship by Italian fishermen. The artifact was sold to an Egyptian merchant and then to the Egyptian Brotherhood of Assassins, who gave it to the rebelling Mamluks in Cairo, allowing them to overthrow the Ayyubid dynasty and laying the foundations of the Bahri dynasty.[2]
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
Lugos is also the name of a major Celtic deity whose name possibly comes from a somewhat attested Gaulish word for "crow" via a Proto-Indo-European word meaning "blackness".
Along with Ali Al-Ghraib and an unidentified Egyptian Assassin who gave the Scepter of Aset to the Mamluks in 1250, Lugos is an ancestor of Stella Crow, a non-canon modern-day Assassin.
