Database: Leonidas

King of Sparta

Leonidas I of Sparta was a king of Sparta and direct descendent of the Isu. He was also related to the founders of the Hidden Ones, Aya of Alexandrea [sic] and the Medjay Bayek of Siwa.

Leonidas was most known for his actions during the Battle of Thermopylae where he directly fought against the invading Achaemenid Empire of Xerses I [sic]. Though the battle cost him his life, his death eventually allowed for a Greek victory over the Achaemenid Empire, creating the Legend of Leonidas.

Leonidas was a courageous warrior and caring king who put the future of Sparta above all else. He was known for his fury in combat and was an inspiration to Spartans both before and after his death.
