Herod I of Judea (c. 74/73 BCE – c. 4 BCE), also known as Herod the Great, was the Roman client king of Judea from 37 BCE until his death.

Biography[]

His rule being considered tyrannical, Herod's reign was opposed by the fledgling Hidden Ones.[1] Additionally, the Roman general Gaius Julius Rufio had planned to visit Herod in the hopes of securing an alliance with Cleopatra and Marcus Antonius,[2] though he was assassinated by Bayek of Siwa in 38 BCE before he could make the journey.[3] Later on, Kawab, having just joined the Hidden Ones, made preparations to travel to Judea in order to help deal with Herod.[1]
