==Assassin's Creed II==

'''Minerva''' was a member of [[Those Who Came Before]] who was also known as Merva, and Mera, and so on, before her death. She appears as a hologram within [[The Vault]], and reveals a little of the history of humanity and her people's origins.

She explains the disaster the Earth suffered, and specifically referred to [[Ezio]] as the "prophet"; she revealed that she was not speaking ''with ''him, but ''through ''him. Minerva apparently knew that [[Desmond]] would one day relive Ezio's memories, as she seemingly addressed the camera - or Desmond's perception of the scene through the [[Animus]] - throughout her monologue, and concluded by saying, "the rest is up to you... Desmond," much to his ancestor's confusion.

Minerva is the Roman name for the Greek goddess Athena, meaning that the people of ancient Greek and Roman times thought [[Those Who Came Before]] were gods.

Minerva is also one of the statuettes that must be collected to place with her 'partner' Jupiter on one of the pedestals at the villa Ezio's great- great- grandfather built in [[Monteriggioni]].
