'''Evie Frye''' (1847 – unknown), born to [[Ethan Frye|Ethan]] and [[Cecily Frye]], was a [[Master Assassin]]<ref name="YT Trailer">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wa8kaLnB5bc YouTube - Evie Frye Trailer]</ref> of the [[British Assassins|British Brotherhood]] active in [[London]] during the [[Victorian era]], and the elder twin sister of [[Jacob Frye]].

Originating from {{Wiki|Crawley}}, Evie and her brother moved to London to overthrow the oppressive [[Templars|Templar]]-led establishment and help the poverty-stricken masses,<ref name="IGN">[http://www.ign.com/articles/2015/05/12/assassins-creed-syndicate-officially-announced IGN - ''Assassin's Creed: Syndicate'' Officially Announced]</ref> following the death of their father by natural causes.<ref>[http://blog.ubi.com/assassins-creed-syndicate-twin-assassins/ Ubiblog - ''Assassin's Creed: Syndicate'' - Twin Assassins]</ref> To accomplish this, she and Jacob founded the [[Rooks]], a criminal syndicate that opposed the Templars.<ref name="IGN" />

During their time in London, the twins came into contact with the biologist [[Charles Darwin]] and the novelist [[Charles Dickens]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LSlmIAB1oM Youtube - ''Assassin's Creed: Syndicate Pre-Order Bonus: Darwin and Dickens Trailer'']</ref>

==Personality and characteristics==
{{Quote|For every mission, there is a right way and a wrong way. Barging thoughtlessly into combat is, more often than not, the latter.|Evie Frye.}}
A true tactician and firm believer in the teachings of the Brotherhood, Evie took to the lessons of her father in a way that her brother did not, being more studious and more interested in the lore and history of the Assassins.<ref>[https://soundcloud.com/ac-initiates/the-network-podcast-episode-13 The Network Podcast - Episode 13]</ref> She planned her missions carefully and patiently, considering every angle to ensure the best chance of success. Sometimes, this worked against her, as it meant that she was slow to act, though no less lethal once she got going.<ref name="Evie Profile">[http://blog.ubi.com/assassins-creed-syndicate-evie-frye-profile/ Ubiblog - ''Assassin's Creed: Syndicate'' - The Stealthy Mind of Evie Frye]</ref>

By contrast, her brother Jacob was much quicker to spring into action, yet his plans lacked sufficient forethought as a result. While the twins' means were frequently at odds, their motivations were the same, and the pair were at their most effective when they worked together, as they balanced each other out.<ref name="Evie Profile" />

===Equipment and skills===
{{Quote|A true master of stealth can blend into any environment. If I remain still, my enemies will have no idea I’m about to strike.|Evie Frye.}}
A Master Assassin proficient with the [[Hidden Blade]], Evie was able to assassinate her targets skillfully and stealthily. She excelled at masking her presence, to such an extent that [[guards]] were unable to notice her as long as she remained still.<ref name="Gamespot">[http://www.gamespot.com/articles/stalking-a-target-as-evie-frye-in-assassins-creed-/1100-6429415/ Gamespot - Stalking a Target as Evie Frye in ''Assassin's Creed Syndicate'']</ref>

As the carrying of weapons openly was forbidden at the time, she relied on an arsenal of hidden tools, much like her brother. Evie was capable of using a [[Swords|cane-sword]], a [[Machetes|Kukri]], [[firearms]], [[brass knuckles]], [[Throwing knives]], [[Bombs|smoke bombs]] and voltaic bombs, which let loose a blast of electricity upon impact. Her Hidden Blade was also equipped with a rope launcher, allowing her to scale buildings quickly as well as create ziplines, and could fire [[Poison darts|hallucinogenic darts]].<ref name="Evie Profile" />

While her brother specialized in brutal and straightforward weaponry like the brass knuckles and the firearms, Evie's stealthy nature led her to prefer more subtle tools like the cane-sword and throwing knives.<ref name="Evie Profile" /> She was especially proficient with the latter, being able to carry a larger amount and hit targets at a greater range than her brother.<ref name="Gamespot" />

She was also a skilled [[Freerunning|freerunner]] and possessed the rare ability of [[Eagle Vision]].<ref name="Gamespot" />
==Trivia==
*Evie's name is of biblical origin, being an alternate form of Eve, which means ''life''. Frye is a derivative of the English word ''free''.
*Evie is the first playable female character in one of the [[Assassin's Creed (series)|''Assassin's Creed'' franchise]]'s main entries and the third playable female character in the franchise as a whole, having been preceded by [[Aveline de Grandpré]] and [[Shao Jun]].
*Evie and Jacob are the fourth and fith Assassin protagonists from a main installment to wear robes whose primary color is not white, the other three being [[Edward Kenway]] and [[Arno Dorian]] and [[Shay Cormac]] while he was still allied with the Assassins.
