Ebio

Ebio was an Egyptian woman who cheated the Greek Klaudios in 48 BCE as part of a scheme to extort a "virginity tax" from him.
==Biography==
Ebio, who claimed to be the wife of Klaudios, a virgin Alexandrian, had turned to banditry with her two brothers by 48 BCE. That year, she and her brothers lurked around the town of Yamu on the coast of Lake Mareotis in the hopes of robbing unsuspecting individuals. It was around the time of the annual festival of Sekhmet in the town that she chanced upon Klaudios, who had come alone for the festival.Assassin's Creed: Origins – Hidden Tax
Learning that the middle-aged Greek was a virgin, Ebio and her brothers concocted a scheme to get Klaudios drunk and force him into marriage before finally coercing money from him. The initial stages of their plan succeeded — Klaudios was unable to resist their offer of free beer all throughout the night and the marriage was swiftly finalized. Despite being drunk, the Alexandrian was still conscious enough to comprehend the predicament he was in upon being pressured to pay a "virginity tax". He made his escape across the lake to the island of the Lost Crypt and lost the criminals.
The following day, Ebio took to pleading locals at the docks of Yamu to launch a search party for her "lost husband", playing his anxious wife. Nevertheless, none heeded her calls until the Medjay of Siwa, Bayek, arrived. Without a second thought, he embarked on a boat across the lake to rescue Klaudios. Sure enough, Bayek returned with the hungover Alexandrian not long afterwards, but Klaudios instantly recognized Ebio, revealing the truth of the whole affair to Medjay, and begged him to protect him from the bandit brothers. Though the unarmed bandits were confident of their victory, they were little match for the professionally-trained Medjay. At the sight of her slain brothers, Ebio broke into hysteria and fled into the desert, no longer to harass Klaudios ever again.
She later returned to Yamu and was chanced by Bayek again. Bayek seized upon this encounter to respond to her earlier outcry, asserting that he had had no desire to kill her brothers, but that the three of them had effected the outcome through their crimes. To this, Ebio walked away in silence with no more to say.Assassin's Creed: Origins
==Personality and traits==
Little more than a petty bandit when she tried to rob Klaudios, Ebio wasn't motivated simply by greed, but contempt as well. As an Egyptian, she bore a prejudice against Greeks for their domination of Egypt. Through her crime, she exhibited not only a penchant for deceit, but an underlying viciousness as well, rooting venomously for her brothers to bloody Klaudios and Bayek. While sadistic towards her victims, she grieved bitterly at the demise of her brothers. Even so, she blamed Bayek for their deaths in spite of the fact he was defending himself and Klaudios against their assault, exposing a selfishness that failed to acknowledge the consequences of her deeds. Aside from this, she and her brothers lacked the common sense to gauge their unarmed strength against a fully armed, professional warrior.
