Doctor '''Warren Vidic''' is a scientist (the exact position is not clear) of [[Abstergo Industries]]. He is the head of research for [[genetic memory]] and the [[Animus]] project. He also plays the role of the main antagonist in the series ([[Modern Times]]).

==Assassin's Creed==
[[File:AssassinsCreed Vidic Animus.png|thumb|380px|left|Vidic talking to Desmond.]]Warren makes his first appearance in the beginning of the game after his assistant [[Lucy]] gets [[Desmond]] out of the animus. Once doing so, he threatens Desmond to cooperate with them and get in the animus, or they will knock him unconscious, get the data they need from him and leave him to die. When Desmond is taken out of the animus a second time he is seen urging Lucy to keep Desmond in the animus for another hour or two, but he is taken to another room and starts getting yelled at by Lucy. He dismisses Desmond and is seen again the next morning watching over Desmond as he wakes up. Throughout most of his appearances he is usually seen waking Desmond up from a nap, then answering several of Desmond's questions, and yells to Desmond to get in the animus when he does not. Eventually, while he is drinking coffee and looking out a window, his access key/pen is stolen by Desmond.

After [[Altaïr]] kills [[Al Mualim]] and activates the [[Piece of Eden]], he can be heard saying "We've got it" referring to the data Abstergo was looking for. When Desmond is taken out of the Animus, Warren is seen talking to three men dressed in black uniforms from a different room. Once they leave, Warren and Lucy argue for several moments, whether to dispose Desmond. Lucy insists though to keep him for more testing and he stubbornly agrees. Then they both leave the room with Desmond alone to do as he pleases.

==Assassin's Creed II==
{{Spoiler}}

Vidic is not seen until the end of the story, furious about Desmond and Lucy escaping Abstergo, reminding Lucy that he saved her life once, he then brings out some Abstergo guards, quickly dispatched by the recently skill-honed Desmond and Lucy. Vidic is forced to leave the hideout, swearing that this is not the last they've seen of him, as he rides out in a truck. During the credits, Lucy however does tell that one day, she and Desmond will end the schemes of Vidic soon.

{{Spoiler End}}

==Personality and Characteristics==
[[File:Vidic_Pen.png|thumb|left|Warren with his access pen completely accessable]]He is shown to be somewhat of a ruthless, intelligent but clumsy man. He also tends to be forgetful, always asking Lucy for passwords he either did not know or forgot. Though he is intelligent, Vidic is not smart enough to keep his possessions out of others reach like his pen, which he left somewhat out of his pocket allowing Desmond to easily take it out of his pocket behind his back. Warren appears to be a friendly person excluding to Desmond, the earlier subjects, and Lucy, as he is shown to have several friends within Abstergo if you read his e-mails. Vidic appears to extremely dislike all of the subjects, often trying to keep them in animus for long periods of time without a care of what will happen to them in anyway, shape, or form. Vidic also shows himself to be very impatient, when Lucy at several points try to postpone Abstergo from discovering the secrets in Altaïr's memories. He gets frustrated and angry at her, while the next day he can appear enthusiastic and friendly again. He seems to be proud man especially in the cause he supports.

==Trivia==
*His car is missing from his reserved parking spot at the beginning of the second game. It can be seen at the right side of Abstergo's underground parking lot.

'''Rebecca Crane''' is one of the modern day [[Assassins]] introduced in ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''. She redesigned the [[Animus]] and provides technical support for the device in the Assassin [[hideout]], and appears to be an old friend of [[Lucy Stillman]]. She receives a data module from Lucy with the records of the Animus, with [[Subject 16]]'s file on it.

It is unknown whether Rebecca is a 'proper' Assassin like [[Desmond]] and Lucy are, however she did save [[Shaun Hastings]]' life when he was telling people about what he thought the [[Templars]] were up to, and recruited him as an Assassin. In the game itself, Rebecca presumably monitors the Animus to make sure nothing goes wrong (such as what happened at the start of the [[Assassin's Creed|original game]]). She often provides small comments with Shaun's Landmark Database entries, particularly when the building either has a [[Glyph]] or a secret entrance to an [[Secret Locations|Assassin's Tomb]]. More often, though, she will provide a comment relating to being at the top of the (usually quite tall) building, such as remarking the the view must be great from the top of a church or that she thinks Desmond is itching to get to the top of a bell tower.

Aside from technical support for the Animus and asking Shaun to calm down at the start of the game, Rebecca doesn't play a significant story role until the end of the game, where she helps Shaun pack up the Animus gear while Desmond and Lucy defend their location from [[Abstergo]]. As they escape into a truck, she is able to get the Animus working inside it, which allows Desmond to re-enter the [[Renaissance]] and finish any remaining memories while on the way to their second base up North. This consequently allows the player to finish up any [[Side Missions]] and plot elements they may have missed, such as [[Races]], Assassin's Tombs and [[Feather]] collecting, to name a few.

==Personality==
Rebecca seems to talk and act in a rather "street" type of way, and maybe even a little tomboyish. She is polar opposite of her colleague, [[Shaun Hastings]], in the way that she is friendly and talkative. She shows great pride in her work, praising her redesign of the Animus and going as far to nickname it "Baby".

==Trivia==
*When in the [[Animus 2.0|Animus]], Rebecca adds information to the Database using the name "REBECCAC84". This may mean that she was born in 1984, making her 28 as of [[Modern Times|2012]].
*Rebecca's looks are reminiscent of the Renaissance character [[Rosa]], specifically the scruffy, dark hair. Another comparison between the two characters is that, when [[Ezio]] is mastering a new climbing ability, Rosa challenges him to race to the top of a building and back under time pressure. In a comment for a different building in the same area, the [[Santa Stefano|Santo Stefano]], Rebecca comments that she would like to race Desmond to the top of the building if she were there.
*When Lucy and Desmond first enter the hideout, Rebecca greets Lucy and exclaims : ''Seven years! It's been so long''. This could mean that the last time the two friends saw each other was in 2005.
