Agrippa

Agrippa (died 47 BCE) was a Roman legate who served as a general under Flavius Metellus, the proconsul of Cyrenaica during the 1st century BCE.

Biography

During the mid-1st century BCE, Agrippa overseered the Kyrenaika Roman Citadel located in the Green Mountains region, constructing various weapons in prepartion for war. He was also tasked with keeping an eye on the Roman engineer, Vitruvius, who was constructing an Aqueduct in the region to supply waters to the surrounding. However sometime in 47 BCE, the construction was halted, leading him to become inpatient with Vitruvius and sent his men to find out why.

In addition, Agrippa also forced Vitruvius to develop a weapon for the Roman army, capable of mass destruction. Vitruvius, deeming it to be too dangerous, refused to continue manufacturing and thus destroy his formula. However, unbeknowst to Vitruvius, Agrippa had a copy made and thus continue the production of the weapon.

That year, the Medjay, Bayek of Siwa rescued farmer Kade from the citadel, who in return informed Bayek of Agrippa's production of the weapons. Bayek, learning that the weapons was based off Vitruvius' formula, confronted the engineer at the aqueduct site. Clearing up the misunderstand, he requested Bayek to eliminate Agrippa and recover his formula. Bayek agreed to do so and thus returned to the citadel, where he eliminated the Roman general and recovered Vitruvius' formula, ending Agrippa's preparations for war.
