Palazzo Auditore

[[File:Palazzo Auditore.jpg|thumb|270px|The Palazzo Auditore, in Florence.]]
The '''Palazzo Auditore''' was a prominent family home in central [[Florence]] during time of the [[Italy|Italian]] [[Renaissance]]; the home to the [[House of Auditore|Auditore family]] of bankers and [[Assassins]], the building served as the centre of the local market, with the family emblem emblazoned across it, and the adjacent streets.

In 1476, the building was raided by Florentine city [[guards]], who arrested [[Giovanni Auditore da Firenze|Giovanni]], [[Federico Auditore da Firenze|Federico]] and [[Petruccio Auditore da Firenze|Petruccio Auditore]] on trumped-up charges of treason. When [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] returned home, he found the house ransacked and his [[Maria Auditore da Firenze|mother]] and [[Claudia Auditore da Firenze|sister]] hiding away. After this event, the remaining Auditore left the Palazzo, moving into the [[Villa Auditore]] in [[Monteriggioni]]. During this time, the Palazzo was guarded by a contingent of city archers positioned on the roof.

Years later, during the [[Bonfire of the Vanities]] in 1498, Ezio returned to the Palazzo once again, and was greeted with a [[Easter Eggs|ghostly vision]] of his family before the [[Auditore execution|execution]].
==Trivia==
*It is unknown if anyone lived in the palazzo over the 23 years since the Auditore execution

'''Tailors''' are merchants who upgrade [[Ezio]]'s pouches, allowing him to carry more Medicine, Poison and [[Throwing Knives]]. They can also [[Customization|dye]] Ezio's clothes with various colors specific to the city you are in.

==Pouch==
Upgrading your Pouches increases Ezio's carrying capacity of a certain item by 5. It is required to upgrade to a lower priced upgrade in order to access the higher priced ones, this however, is not true for the '''Medicine Pouch'''. You can purchase the Large Pouch for 6000 florins and have your capacity upgraded to 15 without purchasing the Medium Pouch for 3000, a way to save some florins.

==Dye Clothes==
Dye Colors available change depending on what region the Tailor is located in. You can get an achievement "Perfect Harmony" by dyeing Ezio's clothes with Wetland Ebony and Wetland Ivory. Dye prices in [[Monteriggioni]] change depending on how well you've renovated the Tailor's shop.

==Trivia==
*[[Altaïr's Armor]] and the Altaïr UPlay skin are unaffected by dyes.
*Tinting your clothes with the colors Wetland Ebony and Wetland Ivory gives you the achievement/trophy "Perfect Harmony". Both dye options are available in [[Forlì]].
*Tailors are often quite offensive to Ezio if he doesn't buy anything, saying things like "awwww, poorly dressed a little while longer!"

Borgia messenger

80.42.141.59: /* Trivia */

{{Quote|Don't slay the messenger, good lord. Have my pouch instead.|A Borgia Messenger upon being caught.|Assassin's Creed II}}

'''Borgia Messengers''', also known as '''Borgia Couriers''', appear in the game ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' and in the short film ''[[Assassin's Creed: Lineage]]''. Upon spotting [[Ezio]], the messengers take flight, performing many [[Free Running|free-run]] [[File:Messenger.jpg|thumb|270px|A messenger begs for his life]]actions and acrobatic stunts, such as climbing walls and swinging from posts. If Ezio manages to catch up to one, he can tackle him or simply throw a [[Throwing Knives|Throwing Knife]] at him for a considerable amount of florins, with about 1,500 florins per messenger. However, if Ezio kills one, his notoriety will automatically increase by 50%; though he can still get the florins if he loots the body. If caught, the messenger begs for his life. After being attacked or left alone for a few moments, the messenger will resume his free-running.

Presumably, the messengers carry important information or funds for [[Rodrigo Borgia]], as they are called Borgia Messengers. They may also be carrying payment to or from some official or ally, explaining the 1,500 florins in their possession.

Interestingly, [[Archers]] begin chasing the messenger as well if he climbs onto a rooftop in his flight. This is rather ironic, as messengers often call to the guards for help during the chase. It has also been shown that you can trip them, or throw them off buildings so that they fall to their death, without being penalized for it.

Unlike [[Pickpocket]]s, who have a red icon, Borgia Messengers are invisible on your map; although you can often find them at city entrances, and they are pointed out by a silver chevron.
For some reason, the messengers often move rather slowly when on flat ground directly after a free-run up the side of a building. They can easily be taken down by a well-aimed throwing knife during these periods.

==Trivia==
*Intercepting a messenger gains you the [[Achievement]]/Trophy "Mailman."
*[[Perotto Calderon]] was a Borgia Messenger, but was also secretly an [[Assassin]].
*If you are blended, messengers can't see you, and thus will not run away.
*Because Rodrigo Borgia died in 1503, you often get 1,503 florins from a borgia courier
