Stentor (born c. 461 BCE) was a Spartan officer and the adopted son of Nikolaos of Sparta who lived during the 5th century BCE.

Biography

In his childhood, Stentor was recognized by Nikolaos for his skills despite his young age. To this end, Nikolaos took in Stentor as his student and trained him under his wing. At some point, Stentor was eventually adopted by Nikolaos as his son. Once Stentor reach the ripe of age, he joined and accompanied Nikolaos throughout his battles.

In 431 BCE, Stentor joined Nikolaos as he led the invasion of the Athenian-controlled region of Megaris. Landing in the harbour, the Spartans were soon blockaded by the Athenian navy and surrounded by Athenian soldiers. However, they were soon able to repel the attack with the help of the misthios Kassandra, who destroyed the blockade. Unbeknowst to Stentor, Kassandra was the daughter of Nikolaos who was believed dead during an incident on Mount Taygetos.

Later in 429 BCE, Stentor was assigned as the polemarch of the Spartan army in Boeotia, having been tasked to conquer the region.

Trivia

• Sparing Nikolaos in the quest that follows would allow a later side quests to be played, which rewards him and Nikolaos as crew members.
• If Kassandra opts to kill Nikolaos she will be attacked by Stentor afterwards. If the player kills Stentor during this moment he will re-appear later on with no explanation of how he survived though will be extremely vengeful to you and will send you on what is to be suicide missions in Boeotia in hopes of being killed. After capturing Boeotia for Sparta Stentor will challenge you to a battle immediately afterwards. Without Nikolaos present to stop the battle Stentor is beaten badly and is either killed or spared. If spared Stentor's men will turn on him and abandon him. Stentor is then exiled from Sparta and becomes a mercenary who will constantly hunt you down until you either kill him or knock him out and recruit him. if recruited in this manner Stentor will be verbally hostile while serving as a Lieutenant on Adrestia.
