Machaon the Feared (died 422 BC) was an Achaean Greek shipwright and a member of the Silver Vein branch of the Cult of Kosmos during the Peloponnesian War.
Biography[]
Machaon the Feared started simply enough - he sacrificed his wealth to Kosmos, but the god did not listen to Machaon's prayers. On a dark night, he sacrificed his only child. Then his servants. Nothing. So now, Machaon aimed to sacrifice all the Greek world. Kosmos would not be listening. A cunning spy in his midst, however, would be.
In 422 BC, Kassandra tracked Machaon down to the hull of a ship in Patrai, where she ambushed and killed him.
