Feather

== ''[[Assassin's Creed]]'' ==
[[File:AssassinsCreedFeather.jpg|thumb|right]]
In the first game, '''Feathers''' are used by [[Assassins]] such as [[Altaïr]] to prove that an assassination target is dead. By staining a feather with the blood of the slain, they prove their accomplishment. [[Assassins' Bureau]] leaders always give the chosen Assassin a feather, symbolizing that they are ready to perform the assassination. In the case of Altaïr, he is only able to attain the feather after performing his own [[investigations]] and reporting his findings to the leader.

Among Assassins, a "feather on one's head" means a mark of death. For example, an [[Informants|Informant]] in the Rich District of [[Damascus]] comments that "there is a feather on [[Abul Nuqoud]]'s head," implying that the Merchant King is marked for assassination.

==''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''==

[[Image:Feather AC2.png|left|A feather from Assassin's Creed II.]]In ''Assassin's Creed II'', [[Petruccio Auditore]] asks [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] to collect three feathers for him near the start of the game. After the [[Auditore Execution|murder]] of Ezio's [[Giovanni Auditore da Firenze|father]] and two brothers ([[Federico Auditore da Firenze|Federico Auditore]] and Petruccio Auditore), his mother, [[Maria Auditore da Firenze|Maria Auditore]] prays over Petruccio's feathers. As Ezio travels across [[Italy]] (with the exception of [[Rome]] and the [[Apennine Mountains]]) he is able to collect more feathers and return these to a box in [[Maria's room]] in the [[Auditore Family Villa]].

After co[[File:Feather_-_Florence_SG_2--article_image.jpg|thumb|right|Ezio collecting a feather in Assassin's Creed II]]llecting 50 Feathers, [[Mario Auditore]] speaks with Ezio and lets him know that there is a new weapon, the [[Blacksmiths|Condottiero War Hammer]], waiting for him at the [[Monteriggioni]] blacksmith. He also suggests that Ezio should give up on trying to search for the feathers.

After collecting 100 Feathers, Maria thanks Ezio for not giving up on her, and presents him with the [[Outfits|Auditore Cape]].

===[[Assassin's Creed II Achievements|Achievements]]===
Collecting all 100 Feathers gives the Achievement/Trophy "In Memory of Petruccio" and the Auditore family Cape. Owning the Auditore Cape is necessary to complete the "Show Your Colors" Achievement/Trophy.

===Locations===
The website [http://www.thehiddenblade.com/feathers The Hidden Blade] has maps for [[Monteriggioni]], [[San Gimignano]], [[Tuscany]], [[Romagna]], and each district of [[Florence]] and [[Venice]] with numbered markers for the locations of every feather. When you hover your mouse over a marker, a screen shot of the feather in-game pops up. Click on the marker for a high resolution version of the screen shot. The maps also include glyphs in the same manner. These maps were created by Asaic and thus do not infringe on the copyrighted maps from the Official Game Guide by Prima Games.

Beneath each map is a video walkthrough of all the feathers and glyphs. These videos demonstrate an efficient collection route and follow the numerical order of the feathers on the maps. They were created by stabguy and IanXO4 to assist players who wish to quickly collect all of the feathers and glyphs or recheck a district for one missing feather. Total running time of the walkthrough is 65 minutes including unedited travel from one feather to the next.

==''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''==
In ''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'', 10 feathers can be found in notable landmarks scattered throughout [[Rome]]. Collected feathers can be placed in a chest similar to the box in Maria's room in ''Assassin's Creed II''. Gathering all feathers results in the Achievement/Trophy "In Memoriam." After sequence 8 you can buy a map detailing the locations of all the remaining feathers from any art merchant.

==Trivia==
*Due to his death, it is never revealed why Petruccio was collecting the feathers in the first place; although a line from the novelization suggests that they were meant to be a present for his mother (which would explain why you would want to give them to her at all).

Cyprus

[[File:Zw-codex-15.png|thumb|The image of Codex Page 15 showing the map of Cyprus and the drawing in the corner.]]
'''Cyprus''' is a small [[wikipedia:Mediterranean Sea|Mediterranean]] island, and features in ''Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines''. It places two major cities: [[Limassol]] and [[Kyrenia]]. It was ruled by [[Isaac Comnenus]], until [[Richard the Lionheart]] conquered it and sold it to the [[Templars|Templar Order]]. Some time later, the island was sold by the Templar Order to Guy de Lusignan, the King of [[Jerusalem]], thereby creating the [[wikipedia:Kingdom of Cyprus|Kingdom of Jerusalem on Cyprus]] (Cyprus was also where the Templar archive was located in ''Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines'' until it was destroyed, with most of the archive moved to an unknown location).

==''[[Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines]]''==
After King Richard the Lionheart defeated [[Isaac Comnenus]], he claimed the island of Cyprus for his own. Soon after though, he sold the island to the new [[Grand Master of the Knights Templar]], [[Armand Bouchart]]. Armand's reason for buying this island was just because there was a sacred archive that held sacred artifacts that he wanted in his possession. Armand sent his men to Cyprus, where he made his way to the archive and shipped all the artifacts out of the place. [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]], now [[Grand Master of the Assassin Order|Grand Master of the Assassin's Order]] killed him, other major Templar leaders, and located the Archive. His action lead to the Cypriots liberation from the Templars.

==''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''==
When [[Ezio Auditore de Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] assassinated [[Dante Moro]], Dante told him that the Templars were planning to go to Cyprus. In truth, they went there to recover a [[Piece of Eden]]. Two years later, the Templars returned to [[Venice]] with the [[Apple of Eden]] and Ezio fought [[Rodrigo Borgia|the Spaniard]] to recover the Apple, in the process finding out about all the other [[Assassins]]. Also, the contents of the fifteenth page of [[Altaïr's Codex]] depicts a map of the island of Cyprus, accompanied with a drawing of a galleon and Cyprus scribbled on a scroll. This again refers to Altaïr's conquest in Cyprus due to these Codex Pages holding his recollections. Altaïr also said in the Codex that the island was "first theirs, now ours", meaning that the Assassins had taken control of Cyprus.

At the end of sequence 11 in assassin's creed II when you are following the guard captain in disguise when you meet the Spaniard the guard comments on how the mission to Cyprus to retreive the piece of eden had "difficulties" which might imply that the assassins not only had possession of the Apple on Cyprus but the Templars defeated and took it from the assasins stationed there during the mission.
