Theron

Background

Theron is a councilman in Sparta, Greece.

During the events of 300 (2006) played by Dominic West

Theron and the Messenger walk to the palace along with the Messenger's Persian bodyguards. Theron introduces the Messenger to Leonidas and before the Messenger speaks, Leonidas warns him that everyone, even a king's messenger is held accountable for what they say. The Messenger tells Leonidas about the greatness of Xerxes and his armies and that all that he requires from Leonidas is earth and water as a token of Sparta's submission to Xerxes. Leonidas tells the Messenger that if the philosopher Athenians have already rejected Xerxes demands, then due to their reputation, the Spartans must also. The Messenger stops Leonidas and warns him to choose his words carefully as they might be his last as king and Leonidas pulls out his sword, and after the Messenger tells him what Leonidas is doing is madness, Leonidas yells "this is Sparta" and kicks the Messenger in a well, followed by his Persian bodyguards. After Leonidas leaves from his visit with the Ephors, Theron and a Persian walk out of the shadows and give the Ephors a large sack of coins and the Persian tells the Ephors that when Sparta falls, they shall be given even more gold and new oracles delivered to them daily. The next day, Leonidas walks out of the gates of Sparta and meets up with Captain and a group of 300 Spartans. Theron walks up along with Elder Councilman and Councilman and Elder Councilman and Councilman tell Leonidas that the Oracle Girl has spoken and they shall not march into battle. Theron reminds Leonidas that the Oracle Girl's word is the law and Leonidas tells him he is going for a walk and the others are his personal bodyguard. Gorgo has a meeting with Theron and he tells her that she will not be able to sway the council and offers to help her if she has sex with him and she agrees. Gorgo goes before the council, including Partisan, and asks them to send the entire Spartan army to help Leonidas. Instead of supporting her like promised, Theron speaks against Gorgo and Leonidas and tells the council that Gorgo offered herself to him, but he resisted. Loyalist calls Theron's claims outrageous and Theron accuses Loyalist of having sex with Gorgo in exchange of Loyalist setting up the council meeting. Gorgo takes the sword from Other Council Guard and stabs Theron in the stomach and a pile of Persian coins fall from Theron.
