Kleitos Filippos, The Scientist
Kleitos Filippos (1699 – 1734) was a Greek Templar operating on the island of Cyprus during the reign of the Murderess, Hacer Stavros. He was the younger brother of Pachis Filippos, and the older of Euphemia.
Born and raised by a noble Templar-family, Kleitos was the fifth child of six. He spent his years on racing and wrestling. So, in order to make him a good Templar in his later years, he were sent to work in the Greek Army. He learned the ways of fighting with a sword and a pistol.
At the age of 29, Filippos was recruited in the Templar fold. During the early times of his career, he were tasked to study Pieces of Eden. So he did, and he obtained the cryptonym The Scientist. Later, however, he was transferred to Cyprus by the Greek Rite. Here he served under the Greek-Turkish Templar leader Hacer Stavros. He worked on Pieces of Eden alongside Antonis, until Stavros sent Kleitos to work with his siblings in Dipkarpaz.
Stationed in Dipkarpaz, Kleitos' brother ensured the Cypriote Templars' income by organizing horse-races. Kleitos Filippos was the one who took part in the staged races – making sure the Templar Order would flourish. If someone managed to win however, their sister Euphemia would invite the winners home to her. When they was relaxed, she would take them to her sleeping chambers. Euphemia told them to get undressed, then left the room. A minute later, Pachis and Kleitos would enter, armed with knives, ready to kill whomever had won.
After the fall of Stavros in 1734, the Greek Assassins Maria Nomiki and Sofia Sanna established an Assassin guild in the city of Kyrenia. Soon afterwards, the Greek Assassin Kyriaki Megalos were sent to kill Pachis Filippos. When Kleitos and Euphemia learned of Pachis' death, they tried to keep the schemes running – but were soon killed by Megalos and her growing group of allies.
