Xerxes I of Persia (c. 519 BCE – c. 465 BCE), also known as Xerxes the Great, was the son of Darius I, the Emperor of Achaemenid Empire, during the Greco-Persian Wars. Like his father, Xerxes I was a strong ally[1][2] of the Cult of Kosmos.[3]

The Cult aided Xerxes in his attempted conquest of Greece, unsuccessfully trying to sway King Leonidas of Sparta to allow Xerxes to conquer the land through their puppet, the Oracle of Delphi. In 480 BCE, Xerxes led a Second Persian invasion of Greece, where his armies clashed with that of Leonidas in Malis.[3]

In 465 BCE, Xerxes was killed by Darius, later considered to be one of the first proto-Assassins, marking the first recorded use of the Hidden Blade.[4][5]
