In Assassin's Creed Odyssey, what is the name of the protagonist's legendary broken spear?

The story behind the answer

In Assassin's Creed Odyssey, the protagonist's legendary broken weapon is the Spear of Leonidas.

The spear is connected to King Leonidas I of Sparta and is inherited by the playable character, either Kassandra or Alexios. Although broken, it retains extraordinary power and is upgraded during the adventure. Its abilities support the game's combat and stealth skills rather than functioning as an ordinary spear.

Odyssey is set in ancient Greece during the Peloponnesian War, beginning in 431 BCE. The weapon links the protagonist to the earlier events shown in the game's prologue, where Leonidas leads the Spartans at Thermopylae.

The Spear of Leonidas should not be confused with the Staff of Hermes Trismegistus, another powerful Isu-related artifact encountered later. Odyssey uses both historical figures and fictional mythology while continuing the series' broader story about human and Isu artifacts.
