The '''Hellequin''', (real name: '''Caha''') is a multiplayer character in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''. Along with her brother, Cahin, the [[Harlequin]], she works as a Templar Agent for Cesare Borgia and is mentioned to originate from France.

Despite her brightly-colored costume and somewhat eccentric headgear, the Hellequin clearly prefers to act in dramas; especially the bloody ones. When using her [[Multiplayer Weapons#Twin Daggers|twin golden daggers]], she is sure to leave her audience with a grin from ear-to-ear. Her default attire consists of a striped gold and purple jester costume, with an ornate golden mask.

In [[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy|''Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy'']], Caha and Cahin are first seen doing a performance together, while [[Fiora Cavazza]] watches them. The performance turns out to be a ruse, with Caha, Cahin, and Fiora killing all of the guests attending. Fiora notes that the siblings seem mad, but fun. Later on, after Fiora turns tail and helps the [[Assassins]] weaken [[Cesare Borgia]]'s defense, she joins them in assassinating Caha and Cahin.
==Unique Moves==
'''''Cunning Trick (Low Profile, Back)'''''

: The Hellequin vaults over her victim whilst stabbing them in the crevices between the neck and the shoulder blades, before landing behind them and nudges the victim with her bottom, letting gravity pull their limp body to the floor.

'''''Curtain Close (Low Profile, Front)'''''
: The Hellequin, once close-range and facing the target, stabs the feet of her victim with one of her daggers. Once the target can no longer step ahead, she takes the other dagger from the ring on her belt and stabs them under the chin, before bending down to retrieve the dagger in their foot, rehooking both of them to her belt.

''''' Theatrical Spin (High Profile, Back) '''''
:The Hellequin runs up to her target from behind and leaps over them. She takes out her two daggers and when she lands, she twirls around once, slashing at her victim's throat.

==Trivia==
*The Hellequin can be unlocked through [[Uplay]] for 40 Uplay points.
*It has been confirmed that the [[Harlequin]] is her brother, as stated by their in-game Multiplayer descriptions.
*"Hellequin" is not a play on the word "harlequin", slotting out "harl" for "hell", as people have been led to believe. The Hellequin was the precursor to the traditional harlequin.
*Caha's and her brother's names are based on the French phrase "cahin caha" meaning willy nilly.
*In the Russian translation she is known as "Harlequina" (Арлекина) a female version of the gender-neutral word "Harlequino" (Арлекино), while the male form "Harlequin" (Арлекин) is used for [[Harlequin]]
