"I am a wanderer, always searching, never finding. Maybe one day."

―Reda

Reda was, by all appearances, an Egyptian nomadic merchant and child prodigy. He made rounds throughout Lower Egypt and Cyrenaica with his camel Amun during the reign of Ptolemy XIII and, centuries later, toured England accompanied by an Anglo-Saxon man during the reign of Alfred the Great as representative of the Thousand Eyes.

Biography

Allegedly an orphan, Reda travelled throughout Egypt with his camel, mostly selling rare and legendary weapons and carbon crystals. Also a gambler, Reda proposed customers to buy the random content of the Heka chest, a mystery box. In 48 BCE, Reda came across the Medjay Bayek of Siwa in Yamu, who was passing through the village towards Alexandria. Reda introduced himself to Bayek, offering to sell his goods to the Medjay if he needed them.

By 38 BCE, Reda also extended his travels to the Sinai and Upper Egypt, yet strangely had not seemed to have aged a day in the ten years since Bayek had last seen him.

Without any known aid, Reda somehow survived into at least the late 9th century, by which time he had founded the Thousand Eyes, a secret merchant guild run by local orphans. He eventually met the Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir as she assisted the Raven Clan in settling their new home of Ravensthorpe. Reda explained to Eivor how his guild operated, wherein completing contracts for him was rewarded with opals, which could then be traded for rare and exotic gear.

Personality and characteristics

Reda had an acute business acumen and respect for his customers. Across their various meetings, Reda provided differing stories of his parents' deaths to Bayek, one of which was that an Alexandrian Phylakitai had caught them stealing and boiled them in a bronze bull. Later on, he told Bayek that his father was poisoned by his mother, and that she was later killed by a hippopotamus.

Notes

• In Assassin's Creed: Valhalla, Reda tells an embellished story of Bayek and Amunet to the children of Ravensthorpe.
