So here's what we do know
We know that we will start Assassin's Creed Odyssey as either Kassandra or Alexios and that the choice is completely up to us
But what happens to the one we don't choose
Do they die did they never exist or will we encounter them in some capacity on our journey?
Join me as I explore the possibilities that may unfold in the early leaks about Odyssey
It was said the characters Kassandra and Alexios were sister and brother
The leaked further stated that the one we do not select will become a key antagonist in our quest
I look to these leaks because many of the details outlined have actually been spot on
So there is potential for these revelations to be true as well
Now the do be soft is made at Odyssey official the information we know to be true is this we know that they are
Outcasts removed from the family they carry the blood of Leonidas and the Isu in their veins
we know that they are mercenaries and that their story is written by Herodotus
The reasoning for the ability to choose between the two is that in the historical writings of Herodotus?
It is unknown which of the two individuals is in the story
Then there is the companion novel that is set to follow Kassandra as the real protagonist
So let's look through the lens as though we are Kassandra. Will we encounter Alexios in the story?
It stands to reason that yes, we will although we don't know to what extent I have a sneaking suspicion
He will be our enemy at least start
We know that there is a gta-like notoriety system and that the higher our notoriety the more mercenaries will be out to collect the bounty
Since both characters are mercenaries. It stands to reason that Alexios could and would be hired to eliminate Kassandra
Then there is the ability to recruit different characters to join our crew including those that were once enemies
Herodotus writes a tale about a mercenary that played a pivotal part in the Peloponnesian War
somewhere along the way the details of the true hero are lost perhaps the reason for the confusion is because
They are allies fighting side by side across Greece on the same mission
Perhaps they aren't brother and sister at all. Perhaps they are lovers and with the inclusion of the romance mechanic
This is entirely possible
Then there is the possibility that they are indeed siblings the reveal trailer
Shows a boy being dangled over a cliff by his father and then dropped the backstory
Is that a tragedy befalls the family and tears it apart?
Could this catastrophic event have been what separated these two?
Will this event leave the discarded child jealous of the one that was kept and on a quest for revenge?
They could lay a path of destruction and end up being a key rival in the overall story of Odyssey
Being thrown away like a pile of garbage would have caused a huge amount of trauma on a child.
A child that would be impressionable in seeking acceptance
Maybe just maybe Alexios will be taken in by the cult of the cosmos and molded into a weapon for order
Or maybe it's Cassandra that winds up in their grasp. Perhaps. We are a member of the cult of the cosmos the whole time
Finally there is the possibility that once we select our character the other one just never existed
I think there is so much more intrigue. However, if both are alive and have the chance to interact
This is just my opinion though. I mean how cool would it be to actually run into the other character somewhere along the line?
We'll just have to wait and see what transpires along our Odyssey
Until next time thanks for watching and don't forget to vote on what will happen to the character
We don't select let me know in the comments section below what you guys think will happen
