'''Rebecca Crane''' is one of the modern day [[Assassins]] introduced in ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''. She is the creator of the [[Animus 2.0]] - which she affectionately refers to as "Baby" - and provides technical support for the Assassins alongside her partner, [[Shaun Hastings]]. She appears to be an old friend of [[Lucy Stillman]], although, prior to the game, the two purportedly did not see one another for seven years, perhaps due to Lucy's internment at Abstergo.

In ''Assassin's Creed II'', Rebecca serves as tech support for the Animus 2.0. She often leaves notes within the database entries that Shaun makes available for [[Desmond Miles]] while he is in the Animus, especially if the entries (i.e. about a particular structure) indicate the presence of a glyph or Assassin's tomb therein. The data module that Rebecca receives from Lucy with the records of the Abstergo version of the Animus allow Desmond to interact with the encrypted file [[Subject 16]] left behind in [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]]'s memories.

==Biography==
It is unknown whether Rebecca is a 'proper' Assassin like [[Desmond]] and Lucy are; she makes allusions, but nothing is ever said conclusively about the nature of her place in relation to the Assassins. She did, however, play an important role in inducting [[Shaun Hastings]] into the Order. When Shaun, with his gifts for connection and conspiracy, endangered his own life by trying to tell the world what Abstergo was up to, Rebecca saved him from Templar silencers, and recruited him as an Assassin.

===Assassin's Creed II===
In ''Assassin's Creed II'', Rebecca monitors the Animus to make sure nothing goes wrong (such as what happened at the start of the [[Assassin's Creed|original game]]). She often provides small comments with Shaun's Landmark Database entries, particularly when the building either has a [[Glyph]] or a secret entrance to an [[Secret Locations|Assassin's Tomb]]. More often, though, she will provide a comment relating to being at the top of the (usually quite tall) building, such as remarking that "the view must be great" from the top of a church or that she thinks Desmond is itching to get to the top of a bell tower.

Aside from providing technical support for the Animus and her small segments of banter with Shaun and Desmond, Rebecca doesn't play a significant story role until the end of the game, when she helps Shaun pack up the Animus gear while Desmond and Lucy defend their location from [[Abstergo]]. As they escape into a truck, she is able to get the Animus working inside it, which allows Desmond to re-enter the [[Renaissance]] and finish any remaining memories while on the way to their second base up North. This consequently allows the player to finish up any [[Side Missions]] and plot elements they may have missed, such as [[Races]], Assassin's Tombs and [[Feather]] collecting, to name a few.

==Characteristics and personality==
Rebecca is an energetic, somewhat immature young woman - despite the fact that she saved his life, [[Shaun Hastings]] is quick to belittle and gibe at her. She is tolerant and and optimistic, representing Shaun's foil - she is the polar opposite of her colleague, friendly and talkative. She shows great pride in her work, praising her redesign of the Animus as having a far more enlightened and creative construct; a "competitive edge" as she calls it. She also remains convinced that, despite Shaun's dubiousness of their means, the Assassins are, as Desmond puts it, "the good guys."

==Trivia==
*When in the [[Animus 2.0]], Rebecca adds information to the Database using the name "REBECCAC84". This may mean that she was born in 1984, making her 28 as of [[Modern Times|2012]].
*When Lucy and Desmond first enter the hideout, Rebecca greets Lucy happily and exclaims: ''"It's been so long... Seven years!"'' This means that the last time the two friends saw each other was in 2005.
*Rebecca seems to have cut her hair by the time the Assassins reach their new hideout in [[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood|Assassin's Creed:  Brotherhood]].

Rosa

{{Era|AC2|Characters|Ren|Good}}
{{Character Infobox
|name = Rosa
|image = Zw-rosa.png
|imgdesc = Rosa's database picture
|period = Italian Renaissance (15th Century)
|faction = [[Thieves]]
|appear = [[Assassin's Creed II]]

{{quote|So, what brings you to me?|Rosa, to Ezio}}
'''Rosa''' was a member of the [[thieves]] faction led by [[Antonio]] in ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''. [[Ezio]] first encounters Rosa upon arriving in [[Venice]], where she pickpockets him out of the money he was about to use to purchase a wooden model for [[Leonardo]]. Later, Ezio saves her after she was shot with an arrow to the leg and was unable to run away from the guards. She eventually teaches Ezio the new "jump to a higher ledge" ability which becomes extremely important in the later stages of the game.

==Biography==
===Early life===
Rosa was born in 1460. Nine months before, a Venetian nobleman paid a prostitute for her services and Rosa was the result of this event. The prostitute probably couldn't raise the child, so Rosa survived in the streets of Venice alone. At the age of fifteen, Rosa tried to steal from [[Antonio de Magianis]], a stranger to her at this point, but was caught. Antonio, being the chief of the Venetian Thieves Guild decided to keep Rosa as his pupil rather than sending her to the guards. Throughout her apprenticeship, Antonio noted many of her talents, especially her high level of agility. Antonio seemed to maintain a very parental relationship with Rosa as he would often call her sweetheart or little darling.

===Middle years===
By the year 1485, [[Emilio Barbarigo]], in secret a member of the [[Knights Templar]], had complete control over Venice's merchant district. The Venetian thieves weren't satisfied with Emilio's rule and aspired to free the district's inhabitants. Rosa and a group of thieves attempted to infiltrate Emilio's [[Palazzo della Seta]], but Rosa ended up getting shot in her leg by an archer. While trying to run back to the guild, she bumped into the [[Assassin]] [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]], whom she previously robbed, who helped her to fend off the attacking guards and later carry her to fellow thief [[Ugo]], who put Rosa in a boat. Ugo managed to get Rosa to the guild while Ezio took out any archers trying to kill them.

While recovering from her wounds, Rosa taught Ezio how to grab higher ledges and, after having succesfully done so the first time, challenged him to climb the [[Santa Maria dei Frari]] in a time limit, which he did.<br />
Rosa then disguised herself as an archer, replacing one who was previously killed by Ezio while the latter assassinated Emilio Barbarigo inside his palazzo.

In 1488, on Ezio's birthday, Rosa delivered Ezio the shipping manifest of [[Arsenal Shipyard|l'Arsenale]], detailing the arrival of a Templar boat returning the day after.

==Characteristics and personality==

[[File:Ezio flirting with rosa.jpg|thumb|200px|left|Rosa and Ezio flirting.]]
Rosa, being the only female of the Venetian Thieves Guild, has a very aggressive, tough personality to match the male-dominated group. For example, a note from Antonio states that the thieves who tried to kiss Rosa were badly beaten up by her afterwards. She is not afraid to give orders or speak her mind to her fellow thieves ([[Ugo]], for example, receives only insults from her, despite assisting in her rescue) as she will yell and insult them to their face.

Rosa also appears to have one of the dirtiest mouths in the game after Caterina Sforza; this is shown after she gets shot in the leg, when she shouts ''"Bastardi!"'' left and right. Upon her initial run in with Ezio she claims she does not need assistance with her wound and Ezio is forced to follow and protect her until she eventually falls, at which point he carries her to safety. After being rescued, Rosa’s personality and attitude toward Ezio changes drastically, becoming extremely flirtatious and more intimate. She seems to revert to her true self when around him instead of the tough thief image she maintains most of the time.

==Relationship with Ezio==

Like a lot of women in ''Assassin’s Creed II'', Rosa becomes attracted to Ezio after their initial meeting, although she tried to pickpocket him by pretending to bump into him, causing Ezio to call her a jerk. However, unlike the majority of Ezio’s other love interests presented throughout the game, Ezio maintains a close, intimate friendship with Rosa and the two are often seen flirting whenever in each other's company, with an implied relationship during that period of their lives. Although, in the novel ''[[Assassin's Creed: Renaissance]]'', Ezio and Rosa do have an intimate relationship together, constantly flirting and many cases of kissing.

==Trivia==

*Rosa moves and fights like an [[Agile Guards|Agile]].
*In the novel ''[[Assassin's Creed: Renaissance]]'', it is said that she is one of the best free-runners in the Venezia Thieves Guild.
*In [[Eagle Vision]], she will turn red for a split-second after you have assassinated [[Emilio Barbarigo]].

Qulan Gal

{{Character Infobox

|period = Mongol invasions
}}
'''Qulan Gal''' was an Mongolian [[Assassin]], and possible descendant of [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]].

==Biography==
Qulan Gal was a member of the Mongolian Assassin's guild. During his lifetime, [[Genghis Khan]] was conquering most of the Asian continent and was in possession of a [[Piece of Eden]], [[the Sword]].

In 1227, after Genghis Khan defeated the Tangut people, Qulan Gal shot Genghis Khan's horse with a bow, causing him to fall off and succumb to his injuries, for which Qulan Gal was hailed as a Master Assassin.

By the [[Renaissance]], Qulan Gal's sarcophagus was moved to the [[Rocca di Ravaldino]] in [[Forlì]], [[Italy]]. The Assassin [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] explored his tomb and took the seal from his sarcophagus, which helped him to acquire the [[Altaïr's armor|armor]] of the Assassin [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]].

==Trivia==
*According to the codex, toward the end of his life, Altair traveled with his family to kill Gengis Khan and claim the Sword of Eden. It is unknown if Qulan Gal was related or knew of [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad|Altaïr]] or his sons and what relation the two might have had.
