Zetes the Retired was a former mercenary active in Greece during the 5th century BCE.

Biography

Sometime during the Peloponnesian War, he and several other mercenaries ventured into the Petrified Temple in order to slay the Writhing Dread. Zetes was only able to escape alive by using his trusty spear to keep the monster away.

At the height of the war, the misthios Kassandra confronted Zetes asking about the monster. After telling her that his spear was what had saved him, Kassandra demanded he hand it over. Zetes refused, and they fought, with Kassandra defeating Zetes and taking the spear for herself.[1]

Equipment and skills

Zetes' signature spear, the aptly named Gorgon Slayer, was how he survived his encounter with the Writhing Dread. After that experience, the only way he would let go of the spear was over his dead body. He had sufficient skill with the spear, being able to hold off the Writhing Dread, but he could not hold up to the likes of Kassandra.[1]
