'''Wei Yu''' was a member of the [[Chinese Assassins|Chinese Brotherhood]] of [[Assassins]] during the [[wikipedia:Qin Dynasty|Qin Dynasty]], which was ruled by Emperor [[Qin Shi Huang]], a [[Templars|Templar]]-backed tyrant who oppressed the people of China. In order to protect the people, the Assassins resolved that the land had to be freed from the Emperor's oppressive control.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref>

On September 10, 210 BC, during one of the Emperor's Eastern China tours, Wei Yu struck the Emperor with his spear, killing him.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

By the time of the [[Renaissance]], Wei Yu's sarcophagus was moved to [[San Gimignano]], [[Italy]], on the top floor of the [[Torre Grossa]]. Fellow Assassin [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] would later explore his tomb and take the hidden seal from inside the sarcophagus, which would help him to obtain [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]]'s [[Armor of Altaïr|armor]].<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

==Trivia==
* Wei Yu's belt looks much like a tied-on martial arts sash but functions as a way to disguise the Assassin symbol.
