- "I will lead those who oppose us to the gates of the underworld. Kosmos be my guide."
- ―Kodros the Bull[src]
Kodros of Lesbos (died 420s BCE), also known as Kodros the Bull, was a member of the branch of the Cult of Kosmos which had allied with the Delian League during the Peloponnesian War.
Biography
Kodros was the king of the Petrified Islands, using his position to recruit powerful warriors to serve as champions and enforcers for the Cult of Kosmos. In a letter encouraging Podarkes to do the same, he considered these methods safe and cheap, while also noting that they "put on a good show" as well. This habit also drew the attention of the Sage of Kodros' branch, who wrote him a letter extolling the excellency of the idea.[1]
Kodros understood that to keep the 'masses' content, all one needed to do was to provide them food and entertainment, and Kodros himself favored prize fighting the most.
He offered a job to Titos, a champion of the Arena in Pephka, inviting him to join him in Lesbos. However, the Spartan misthios Kassandra challenged Titos in combat and was victorious against him, claiming evidence of the job offer from his corpse. This proved to be Kodros' downfall, as it subsequently enabled Kassandra to track him to Lesbos and kill him.[1]
Trivia
- The letter to Podarkes also provides directions to the clue that unveils Iobates, who prefers hiring mercenaries to arena champions. However, when that letter is claimed from Podarkes at the conclusion of Hades, Meet Podarkes, it only provides explicit directions to the Job Offer that unveils Kodros, in the form of a masked icon on the Cultists menu. The same exact letter must be claimed a second time from Kodros in order to reveal the masked icon for Iobates.
