Ancient Greeks might have preferred open-toed sandals, but they sure knew a lot about knocking boots. If you’re lookin’ for a little classical lovin’, here are all the people we’ve found so far that you can romance in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey.
People are easily offended in Assassin’s Creed Odyssey, so you’ll need to watch what you say to trigger these specific events.
Assassin’s Creed Odyssey Romance guide
A Small Odyssey quest guide - how to romance Odessa:
At the start of the game, on your first jaunt away from Kephalonia to the isle of Ithaka, you’ll meet a lost warrior trapped in a cage. This is Odessa, a supposed descendant of the great king Odysseus, who’s returning to her forefather’s seat of power in search of a meaning for her life.
Clear the surrounding area of bandits, then let Odessa out of the cage and speak to her.
Agree to help her escape and follow her away from the ruins.
Once you’ve reached a safe clearing, speak to her again. Odessa will ask you to help her complete her pilgrimage - agree, then escort her to Odysseus’ palace, clearing out any bandits that you haven’t already.
The crumbling stone isn’t quite what she expected, so she’ll ask you to escort her to her ship on the beach, do so, then speak to her again.
In this conversation, you have to pick certain answers to be successful and open up the next quest line. When you get the option, pick “It’s cute when you’re determined”, which should have a little heart next to it. Then pick, “I can think of a few others”. Lastly pick, “Being great isn’t easy”.
Be careful with that last option, if you pick a different one then you’ll annoy Odessa and lose access to her next quests.
This will complete A Small Odyssey and you’ll bid Odessa farewell for now, but if you picked the right option, she’ll have more quests for you when you reach Megaris later in the game.
When you get to Megaris, travel to the southeast section of the area - the Valley of King Lelex - and find the Port of Nisaia on the coast. Just to the north of here, you’ll find Odessa’s farm. Speak to her and you’ll get the A Family Ordeal quest.
A Family Ordeal quest:
Throughout your conversations with Odessa try to pick the romance answers that have hearts next to them, but the most important thing is that you agree to help her with her troubles.
The plants that you need for the quests are in the beached shipwreck that’s just to the west of the Port of Nisaia.
Then go to the merchant in the centre of Megara and pay him the measly 50 drachmae for the goods. You can also steal them from the chest next to him, but you’ll incur a bounty.
When you return there’ll be some dudes to kill. Once they’re dealt with, talk to Odessa and give her the items she needs. Continue to pick romance options, but there’ll be something else on her mind. You’ll need to settle this once and for all.
The True Story quest:
You can kick this quest off by likening yourself to the great lover Odysseus, but to continue the storyline offer to make a story of your own with Odessa and dig up some dirt on who’s trying to squeeze her out of her land.
Head over to the leader house in Megara and find the clues on the second floor.
Return to Odessa and agree that she’s the victim in the situation. Then pick the conversation option “Let’s journey to bed”, and then “undress me and find out”.
This will trigger the romance scene for Odessa.
Once it’s over and you complete the quest, you can invite her to join your crew as a unique lieutenant.
