Diodoros (military officer)

Diodoros was a military officer of the Peloponnesian War.
Around 430 BCE, the Athenian statesman Alkibiades plotted Diodoros' undoing for reasons he did not disclose to his acquaintance Kassandra, a mercenary he hired for his scheme. Meeting Kassandra at the Akrokorinth, he instructed her to deliver a small box to a soldier named Bardas stationed at the adjacent fort but to lie that it came from Diodoros. Unbeknownst to Kassandra, the box contained a cast of Alkibiades' penis inscribed with the provocative words "This is for your wife Thelia, for when she starts to miss me". His plot thus relied on framing Diodoros with an adulterous affair with Bardas' wife and inciting Bardas into killing him. Kassandra sneaked into the Akrokorinth Fort to deliver the package to Bardas, not realizing its contents until Bardas opened it, whereupon she either followed through with the lie, truthfully divulged that it was from Alkibiades, or joked that the cast was from her.Assassin's Creed: Odyssey – Handle with Care
