Empedokles fanatic

The Empedokles fanatic (died 420s BCE) was an Empedoklite, a follower of the so-called 'god' Empedokles.
Drawn into a row with a local priestess of Aphrodite at the statue of Empedokles, the man was approached by the Spartan misthios Kassandra. The Empedoklite was happy to tell the misthios about the persecution their cult faced from the local priestesses, and tasked her to rescue Empedokles from his imprisonment at the Murex Fort.Assassin's Creed: Odyssey – A God Among Men
While Kassandra was away, however, the follower was stoned to death.
