Who is the female protagonist option in Assassin's Creed Odyssey?

Kassandra is the female protagonist option in Assassin's Creed Odyssey.

Ubisoft designed Odyssey so players could choose between Kassandra and Alexios as the playable character. Both portray the same central descendant of the Spartan king Leonidas and experience the game's ancient Greek adventure, although Kassandra is the canonical protagonist in later series material.

The story takes place during the Peloponnesian War and follows the protagonist's efforts to uncover family secrets while confronting the Cult of Kosmos. The player can also make dialogue and relationship choices, giving Odyssey a stronger role-playing structure than many earlier entries.

Kassandra is sometimes confused with Aya, who is a major character in Assassin's Creed Origins, or Evie Frye, one of the leads in Assassin's Creed Syndicate. Those characters belong to different historical periods and games.
