The Spartan War Hero Set was a set of armor created by the ancient Greek city-state of Sparta.
During the Peloponnesian War, the armor set was in the possession of the members of the branch of the Cult of Kosmos which had infiltrated the Peloponnesian League. The Spartan misthios Kassandra hunted down the cultists and claimed each armor piece for herself. She also obtained the Xiphos of Dionysos from the Sage of that branch, Pausanias of Sparta.[1]
