Traitor is an Atlantean Heroic Age god power in Age of Mythology that is available to worshipers of Rheia. When invoked, the player gains permanent control of almost any enemy unit.
Gameplay
Traitor is best used on powerful myth units as doing so will weaken the enemy while strengthening the player's forces. Units with useful powers such as healing or instant-kill abilities are especially useful. Any myth technologies that affect units in general, will affect units converted to the player's side. When used in combination with Hekate's Mythic Rejuvenation, Traitor can technically cause all Atlantean myth units normally trained from a Temple to regenerate hit points. This also means that converted units will lose any upgrades available that the user of Traitor has not researched or cannot research (for example, a converted Elder Cyclops will become a regular Cyclops).
For those reasons, using Traitor on human soldiers is not a wise decision as most of them, notably the Egyptian soldiers, are only upgraded by technologies unavailable to the Atlanteans. However, Norse infantry may be converted as they are capable of constructing buildings. Players may use a Berserk to build a Town Center on a Settlement in an area that would be otherwise unsafe for a Citizen.
If possible, players are advised to save Traitor for when they reach the maximum population cap. Converting units does save resources but it will still use up population. Being at the population limit does not prevent the use of Traitor.
