"Unlike you myrmidons, the oath I take means something. Send me to the Duat! I will have Osiris rip me limb from limb before I tell you an iota of anything. Nothing works within me except the fire to destroy those who take food from workers, those neket iadets (pieces of shit) like you."
―Osorkon to his Roman captors, 38 BCE.[src]-[m]

Osorkon was a member of the Hidden Ones who operated in the Sinai during the reign of Cleopatra.

Biography[edit | edit source]

Osorkon: "You must be the great Bayek. Understand this: I investigated the docks, and found a woman liberating the children on a slaver's barge."
Bayek: "A liberator is behind the pillaging?"
Osorkon: "A Nabatean warrior known as Shaqilat. She hands out the spoils to the people—and strikes with incredible swiftness. I was following her but was captured by Romans. She has found safety with the children in a courtyard between the bureau and the quarry."
—Osorkon informing Bayek about the warrior Shaqilat, 38 BCE.[src]-[m]

In 38 BCE, Osorkon was tasked with surveying the Klysma Quarry. During his surveillance, he discovered a Nabatean warrior by the name of Shaqilat liberating children on a slaver's barge in the docks. Seeking to learn more about her activities, Osorkon followed her trail but was later captured by Roman soldiers, who brought him to an underground outpost to torture him for information.[1]

His disappearance caught the attention of fellow Hidden One Paanchi, who sought the help of their Mentor, Bayek, to investigate. Bayek was able to discover Osorkon's whereabouts and eliminate the Roman captors before they could torture him. Osorkon subsequently reported his findings to Bayek and directed him to a courtyard between the Hidden Ones bureau and the quarry, where Shaqilat had found safety with the liberated children.[1]

After the destruction of the bureau in the quarry, Osorkon, along with the rest of the Hidden Ones in the Sinai, moved to a new bureau within a cave in the Arsinoe Nome.[2]

Personality and traits[edit | edit source]

Osorkon was highly devoted to the Hidden Ones, such that he was willing to be tortured and executed during his capture to prevent leaking confidential information to the Romans. He was also highly respected amongst his peers, such that Paanchi was willing to die for him and noted that Osorkon's death would be a blow to the brotherhood.[1]

Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]

Osorkon shares the same name with four pharaohs from Egypt's 8th century BCE Bubastite Dynasty.[3]
