Gotarzes was a 5th century BCE pirate and the younger brother of Xenia, a pirate leader on the Greek island of Keos.

Biography

After their father passed away and left his armor to Gotarzes,[1] he made his way to captaining a ship. Among the population of Keos, however, Gotarzes was regarded as a lost cause; his travels often filled with mishaps and accidents.[2]

At some point during the Peloponnesian War, after his ship was marooned on Lestris, Gotarzes' crew mutinied against him and attempted to eliminate him. Before they could, however, the Spartan misthios Kassandra found them and rescued Gotarzes, returning him to Koressia to the delight of Xenia.[1]

Trivia

  • The name Gotarzes is actually the Hellenization of the Parthian name Gōtarz.
    • Based on this information, it is possible that both Gotarzes and Xenia have both Persian and Greek heritage, as he shares his name with two Parthian kings.
  • Despite being Kassandra's ally through Xenia, Gotarzes can be knocked out and recruited as a lieutenant on the Adrestia.
