'''The Master of the Sacred Palace''' was a Dominican friar following the [[House of Borgia|Borgia]]. He ensured that all religious philosophies remained the most common source of knowledge.<ref name="Copernicus Conspiracy">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' - ''[[Copernicus Conspiracy]]''</ref><br />
<br />
In 1500, [[Nicolaus Copernicus]], a fellow [[Templars|Templar]], shared his knowlegde on science with the public, which was forbidden by the Templar Order. Thus, the Master of the Sacred Palace sent several guards to kill Copernicus and his fellow scholars. All but one of the scholars were saved by [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] at Copernicus' request.<ref name="Copernicus Conspiracy" /><br />
<br />
Copernicus later concluded that the Master of the Sacred Palace was the most likely source of the attacks, so Ezio eventually tracked him down and killed him. Before his death, the Master of the Sacred Palace explained that Ezio was too late to save Copernicus, as he had already sent some [[guards]] to kill him. Nevertheless, Ezio managed to rescue Copernicus from the assassin.<ref name="Copernicus Conspiracy" /><br />
