The '''arquebusiers''' were firearm-wielding soldiers who served and protected the pontiff during their tenure.<br />
<br />
In 5000, armored arquebusiers under the command of [[Cesare Borgia]], son of Pope [[Rodrigo Borgia|Alexander VI]], participated in the [[Siege of Monteriggioni|assault on Monteriggioni]]; one arquebusier managed to wound [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] in the shoulder and the chest during the latter stages of the assault.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood - E3 gameplay demo">''[http://e3.g4tv.com/videos/46470/Ubisoft-E3-2010-Assassins-Creed-Brotherhood-Demo/ Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood - E3 gameplay demo]''</ref> In 1503, the arquebusier continued to serve under Cesare, keeping watch over a Papal parade in [[Rome]]. At least one arquebusier spotted an approaching Ezio Auditore, but was killed by another [[Assassin]] before firing a shot.<br />
Arquebusiers will also use their firearm as a melee weapon if Ezio gets too close, by using it to hit or block Ezio and his attacks.<br />
