Talos the Stone-Fist (died 431 BCE) was a mercenary who lived during the 5th century BCE.

Biography

In 431 BCE, Talos received an invitation to the Pephka Arena. Soon afterwards, he was hired by the Cyclops of Kephallonia to hunt down the Spartan misthios Kassandra. Talos eventually engaged Kassandra in combat, and fell.[1]

Trivia

  • In the gameplay description for Talos, his place of origins varies and may be different for players.
  • He shares his name with the mythological Talos, a giant bronze automaton created by Hephaistos at the request of Zeus to protect the Phoenician princess Europa from pirates and raiders. The automaton was famously eliminated when the sorceress Medea tricked him into removing the nail in his ankle which held the ichor that kept him alive.
