"Let no man be called happy before his death. Till then, he is not happy - only lucky."
―Rhexenor, c. 424 BCE

Rhexenor the Hand (died c. 424 BCE) was an Athenian strategos who lived during the Peloponnesian War. A member of the Delian League branch of the Cult of Kosmos, he served under Kleon, the Sage of the Delian League and the leader of Athens.

History

Even before Kleon rose to power in Athens, Rhexenor served as his enforcer, helping Kleon become a noteworthy politician and eventually the leader of Athens. Whether the problem that needed solving was a shift in a vote, or an insistent rival, Rhexenor was there as Kleon's right-hand man, serving Kosmos' will.[1]

When Kleon rose, Rhexenor followed close behind, ensuring that the blade was there, always visible only enough to remind Athenians how they best behave. If someone stepped off the line, Rhexenor soon brought them back to the fold, using poison and smoke and a silent knife when needed.[1]

Despite Rhexenor's attempts, there were still those who resisted Kleon's rule. Eventually Kleon demanded that Rhexenor deal with the playwright Aristophanes once and for all, or else Kleon would come for Rhexenor's head. To do this, Kleon suggested that Rhexenor target Aristophanes' favourite actor, Thespis, and his 'Muse', the hetaera Aikaterine.[2]

He was eventually killed by the Spartan misthios Kassandra in her quest to destroy the Cult.[3]
