Kamos
Age of Mythology

Evil Factor: Pirate, made numerous attempts to destroy Atlantis in the past prior to the Trojan War levels
Insanity: Mind set on lashing the hero, Arkantos' head to his mast, hand fed Leviathans to tame them
Powers: Khopesh hand, tamed a Leviathan and other sea creatures, Minotaur Gore
Occupation: orphaned Egyptian Minotaur Pirate, adopted son of the Egyptian Goddess Bast, possible cohort of the bandit Anubite, Theris
 
Description: Kamos is a pirate, albeit a somewhat intelligent one. He got that sword hand after his first attempt to tame a Leviathan by hand-feeding it. Like the Minotaur unit, he can also use their special ability to bash his head into a unit, dealing damage and sending them flying. Out of the three main antagonists of Age of Mythology, Kamos is the more reckless of the trio and only attacked Atlantis in the two levels to set up a diversion from Troy in order to extend Gargarensis' efforts to dig up the tunnel to Erebus, who foresaw that Arkantos would eventually discover his scheme. Kamos always worships an Egyptian Major God, while Kemsyt and Gargarensis are more flexible. On easier difficulties, Kamos' bases tend to be wide open, barely walled up or not at all, however he attacks more often than his two comrades (depending on which level we are talking about). When Kamos was young, he was kidnapped by the Goddess Bast from a Fishing Ship and for reasons unknown, he harbors great rage, which may explain his military recklessness. He can be easily considered as Arkantos' arch nemesis since they have a personal hatred for each other, Kamos killed Arkantos' wife during a raid prior to the game. He died trying to defend the last piece of Osiris in the second to last Egyptian level, the first of the trio to die. When given the element of surprise, Kamos can be a quite formidable enemy on harder difficulties, especially in the first level if you can't keep up with his onslaught. His favorite myth unit appears to be Anubites, so watch your archers.
