Sargon is the playable character in Prince of Persia: The Lost Crown.
Biography[]
Taken in by Anahita as a young orphan, Sargon was raised with strict military training, to become a deadly weapon to the Persian empire. Today, trembling cries of 'the Rashabar' precede him in battle.[1] Anahita also gifted Sargon his twin swords named Qays & Layla when he joined the Immortals.[2] Sargon is the youngest of the Immortals, but despite this is an excellent fighter.[3]
The Lost Crown[]
Sargon is at Persepolis when it is besieged by the Kushan. He and his fellow Immortals, under Anahita's direction, launch a counter-attack against the invaders. After the initial charge, Sargon notices that Anahita has been wounded. She tells him not to worry about her, to keep fighting while she attends to the wounded. Sargon later defeats the Kushan general Uvishka in a duel, which breaks the Kushan siege (at least temporarily).[4]
For his deeds, Sargon is honored by Queen Thomyris. After Prince Ghassan is kidnapped by Anahita, Sargon and his fellow Immortals head to Mount Qaf to save him.[4]
Trivia[]
- Sargon's visual design harkens to the Prince in the Sands of Time trilogy. However, he is a new character, and conspicuously, not the titular Prince in The Lost Crown.[5]
- He is possibly named after Sargon of Akkad; first ruler of the Akkadian Empire.
- Early in development of Lost Crown, Sargon was nameless, keeping with series tradition. However, he was given a name, as according to Mounir Radi, "for us, we’re making a modern game. For us, it was the natural way. He has a name now."[6]
