Lykeles

Lykeles is another aristocratic Athenian, the best horseman of the lot, a good scout and a better javelin man. He’s neither intellectual nor particularly ethical, and Kineas makes the grave mistake of leaving him as (in effect) the military governor of Olbia in Tyrant: Storm of Arrows. However, he’s not willfully dishonest, just in over his head.

Lykeles is also a boyhood friend of Graccus and Kineas, as well as Diodorus and Coenus. He did not, however, go to the Academy, which perhaps explains his lack of ethics.
