[[File:Zw-thebarber.png|thumb|The Barber.]]'''Baltasar da Silva, '''also known as the '''Barber''', is a character in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]'', and a multiplayer character in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''. He uses a sharp [[Multiplayer Weapons#Razor|razor]] as his primary weapon.

In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]'', it is revealed that he was [[Cesare Borgia]]'s master spy, and that he was not actually a barber. At one point, he partnered with [[Courtesan|Fiora Cavazza]] to investigate the [[Assassins]]. Though he failed to tail or catch his prey, he was able to observe their technique, clothing, and [[hidden blade]], and took notes eagerly. This research resulted in him creating the [[Templar]] assassin, [[Prowler|Il Lupo]].

Later, when Fiora turned on Cesare and allied with the Assassins, he was able to outwit his hunters using a variety of traps. However, he was intrigued by Fiora's decision and offered to make a deal with her. The "deal" turned out to be a trap that almost resulted in Fiora's death, but [[Francesco Vecellio]] and his fellow Assassins came to her aid, and killed Baltasar and his men with arrows.

==Unique moves==
===The Straight Shave===
The Barber approaches his target from behind and forces him/her on their knees. He then holds their chin, causing the neck to extend, takes out his razor and slices the target's throat. The target then falls to the ground, dead. (Low Profile Kill)

===The Cut-Throat Razor===
The barber fluidly side steps in front of his target as he delivers a lethal slash with his razor to the neck. (High Profile Kill)

===The Double Swipe===
As he walks towards his target, the barber swiftly pulls out his razor and delivers a double slice to the neck, effectively ending their life. (Low Profile Kill)

==Trivia==
*The barber bears a certain resemblance to [[wikipedia:Johnny Depp|Johnny Depp]]'s portrayal of [[wikipedia:Sweeney Todd|Sweeney Todd]], the Demon Barber of Fleet Street. They both kill people with straight razors, and have black hair with streaks of white in them.
*He was originally called the Butcher.
*Silva is the Portuguese word for some bushes, which is possibly a reason for his emerald green apparel.
*He also bears a striking resemblance to [[wikipedia: Gangs of New York|Gangs of New York]]'s Bill "The Butcher" Cutting.
*His secondary color in multiplayer changes his green vest to red. Also, his advanced gear gives him an armor plate for his right hand.
