The '''Armor of Ishak Pasha''' was a powerful set of [[armor]] that belonged to the [[Ottoman Empire|Ottoman]] general and covert [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Ishak Pasha]]. It was said to hold mystical powers, due to it bearing a cursed marking.

==History==
Sometime after Ishak Pasha's death, the Sultan entrusted his armor to the [[Janissaries|Janissary]] [[Murat Bin Husn]], in acknowledgement of his "unbreakable will." Murat devised a plan to keep the armor safe by hiding it at [[Hagia Sophia]], and renovated the [[Great Chain]] in [[Constantinople]]'s harbor to protect the city.<ref name="Discover Your Legacy">''[[Assassin's Creed: Discover Your Legacy]]''</ref>

However, around 1511, the Assassin [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] was able to collect the scattered memoir of Ishak Pasha, and subsequently discovered the armor's location. Soon after, he retrieved it from the [[Assassin Tombs|tomb]] within the Hagia Sophia, after working through a puzzling maze, before returning to the city through the sewers.<ref name="Revelations">''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''</ref>

==Trivia==
*The memoir pages could be found either with [[Eagle Vision#Eagle Sense|Eagle Sense]], or by collecting 25 [[Animus]] Data Fragments and purchasing the memoir page map.
*During cutscenes, the mask was removed, and Ezio's face could be seen, although with a trimmed beard. However, he would continue to wear the mask when recruiting a [[Save Citizen|saved civilian]], performing a Master Assassin mission or a guild mission.
*Even when the armor was not equipped during cutscenes, Ezio could still be seen wearing it.
*This armor bore two unique hidden effects, which granted extra resistance to [[Firearms|projectile weaponry]] and a small chance to deflect projectiles (bullets, crossbow bolts, etc.)
*While wearing this armor, guards were more likely to run away due to their belief in it being cursed, much like how guards reacted in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' after seeing the brutal kills of the [[Dagger of Brutus]].
**Whether the player was wearing an outfit over this armor or not did not affect the ability to scare the guards away.
*Being an unbreakable armor, it shared maximum statistics with the [[Armor of Altaïr]], [[Armor of Brutus]] and the [[Master Assassin Armor]].
*This armor was the only final armor in the [[Assassin's Creed (series)|''Assassin's Creed'' series]] that didn't have the [[Assassin insignia]] anywhere on it.
*When selecting the armor in the armory, the order of the armor is opposite of all others. It would start with the greaves instead of the pauldrons.

'''Customization''' was a gameplay mechanic of the [[Assassin's Creed (series)|''Assassin's Creed'' series]]. In the [[Tailors|Tailor]] shops throughout all of the cities that [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] visited, he could dye his clothing, although the possible color schemes depended on which city he was in.

At any city, Ezio could always switch back to the default color for free, though after buying a dye, it would not remain unlocked. This meant that if Ezio wished to switch back to a dye after buying a different one, it must be purchased again.

==Renaissance==
During his time visiting various [[Italy|Italian]] cities, the [[Assassin's Creed II Achievements|achievement]] "''Perfect Harmony''" could be unlocked by dying Ezio's clothes with both "Wetlands Ebony" and "Wetlands Ivory". Both of these color schemes were available through tailors in [[Romagna]] or [[Forlì]].

In [[Rome]], there were new dyes available, with each district, except for the [[Vaticano District|Vatican]], offering new colors. Also, instead of the colors always matching, both the outfit and cape could be dyed two different colors. In addition, the colors of Ezio's [[Apprentices|Assassin recruits]] could be changed, though once an Apprentice reached the [[Ranks|rank]] of ''Assassino'', the only dye that was available to them was "Assassin White". The cape's color would change accordingly to the dye it was last changed to before reaching ''Assassino ''rank.

[[Constantinople]] also had new dyes to offer, though they did not vary from district to district, with all being available from any Tailor shop.

==Dyes==
{{Main|Tailors}}
[[File:AC2 Tailor Dye.png|thumb|250px|right|Customization of robes at a tailor shop.]]
Dyes often had a common characteristic, which was displayed by a prefix on their names, which stated where the dye originated from. Some of these prefixes were:
*"Florentine" for [[Florence]].
*"Tuscan" for [[Tuscany]] ([[Monteriggioni]] included).
*"Wetlands" for [[Romagna]].
*"Venetian" for [[Venice]].
*"Roman" for Rome.

==Trivia==
{{GalleryBox|Customization}}
*The achievement "Perfect Harmony," which is earned through dyeing Ezio's outfit Wetlands Ebony and then Wetlands Ivory, is a clear reference to Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder's "''Ebony and Ivory''" hit, in which the first line of the track is "Ebony and Ivory live together in perfect harmony."
*Even if the [[Armor of Altaïr]], [[Armor of Brutus]] and [[Armor of Ishak Pasha]] were dyed, the color of the robes (save the inside of the hood) would not change.
*Despite the fact that Ezio changed his robes in the novels, and that certain colors were visually better for blending in with certain crowds (e.g. red to blend in with cardinals), dyeing robes had no effect on gameplay whatsoever.
*In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]'', in the menu for clothing dyes, "Caspian Teal" has the same picture as "Algerian Silver", despite the actual dyes being different.
*In ''[[Assassin's Creed III]]'', if the robes were dyed, they would revert to the original color during cutscenes.
**However, the color of some parts of the robes, such as the trim, would stay the same. This was caused by the fact higher quality models were used in cutscenes, which shared only some textures with the ones used during gameplay, hence the trim displaying the dye.
