Thought I'd post this since I haven't seen anyone mention him yet.

One of the Heroes for Golden Era Arco is Daidalos, the Maker of the Maze. His stats follow:

HP 7
Prot 3
Mor 9
MR 12
Enc 4
Str 7
Att 8
Def 7
Prec 11
Move 1/10
Ldr 15/0/30
Fire1, Water1, Air1, Earth3
Siege (50!)

He is also described as getting a bonus for casting Mechanical Men and Clockwork Horrors.

Trippy. I'da given him Air 2, myself, or maybe some post-traumatic fire resistance.
Also, the Monster in the Maze should pop his head off and kick it around a little if the two ever wind up in the same province.

Then again, the Stymphalian Wings only require Earth 3, so what do I know?

Daidalos made the 2 pairs of wings, Icarus died flying to the sun on one.

And the wings weren't Stymphalian. That refers to the Stymphalian Birds, who were IIRC bronze-feathered birds who made such a horrible clatter when they flew that it caused panic. I'm too tired to think of which myth exactly it is that they're in.

Daidalos's wings were made of gulls' feathers (?) and wax.

As a further point, Daidolos doesn't replace Orokestes.

Golden Era certainly gets good Heroes. (They also get Pathos.)
