Bayek was a Medjay and an Assassin of the Egyptian Brotherhood active during the reign of the last pharaoh of Egypt, Cleopatra VII.
He is credited with the founding of the Assassin Brotherhood.
Equipment and skills
As a Medjay, Bayek was highly trained in the art of combat. Aside from this, he was also an expert in stealth and freerunning. He favored a variety of weapons including a khopesh, a spear, and a bow while he regularly employed a shield for defense. As a founder of the Assassins, he utilized a Hidden blade for stealth assassination.
Bayek had a symbiotic relationship with his eagle, Senu, which aided him in reconnaissance thanks to his Eagle Vision. Unlike later Assassins such as Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, and Desmond Miles, Bayek's Eagle Vision was far more literal because it worked through the eyes of Senu not his own, allowing him to view from his companion's perspective.
Trivia
- Bayek is the hieroglyphic word for "falcon" or "vulture".
