{{Era|AC}}
'''Neumann''' was the name given by Dr. [[Warren Vidic]] to an individual "involved" in the death of [[Leila Marino]] during the year 2007. Five years after Marino's death, [[Lucy Stillman]], an employee of [[Abstergo Industries]], attempted to access the coroner's report on her death, but was told "not to dip [her] pen in company ink."

Gaspar de la Croix

{{Character Infobox
|name = Gaspar de la Croix

|birth = 1466
|death = 1503 [[Rome]], [[Italy]]

'''Gaspar de la Croix''' (1466 - 1503) was a master engineer, marksman and a member of the [[Templars|Templar Order]]. He was frequently hired by [[Cesare Borgia]] to take down easy targets on the field at the start of a battle.

His genetic memories were later used by the Templar-owned company [[Abstergo Industries]] for the training of their [[Abstergo recruits|Animus recruits]], under the title of the [[Engineer]].

==Biography==
===Working for the Borgia===
[[File:Spare Parts.jpg|thumb|left|200px|Gaspar aiming his arquebus.]]
In 1503, [[Fiora Cavazza]] visited Gaspar on Cesare's request to pick up several parts and equipment that the engineer had repaired. At his workshop, she discovered him singing a remorseful song in [[France|French]] and hesitated to interrupt him.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy">''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]'' - [[Chapter 1 - Fiora Cavazza]]</ref>

Throughout her stay, Fiora saw Gaspar as distant and haunted, particularly after he began asking her uncomfortable questions, such as whether she had witnessed death, and if death was driven by fate, chance or choice.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy" />

Finally, as she departed, Gaspar refused to accept the payment for his services and was left tinkering with a [[Firearms|firearm]], which he thoughtfully aimed out of his front window at the passing crowd.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy" />

===Death===
[[File:Gasparcorridor.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Ezio lays Gaspar to rest.]]
{{quote|I don't scare easily!|Gaspar as he is chased by Ezio Auditore.|Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood}}

Later that same year in [[Rome]], Gaspar fought to suppress a group of citizens attempting to form a resistance against the [[House of Borgia|Borgia]], so he wielded his arquebus skillfully and was able to kill many from a distance. However, when the uprising had dwindled to the last man, the [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] chanced upon the scene and joined the fray.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref>

As Gaspar killed the final insurgent, a man whose wife or daughter (named Anna) was previously shot dead by Gaspar, Ezio charged at the engineer, who chose to flee. Reaching a dead end, Gaspar tried to fight back, but he was fatally stabbed by the Assassin's [[hidden blade]].<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood" />

==Trivia==
*"De la Croix" is of French origin and means "from the cross," likely a reference to his affiliation with the Templars.
*Gaspar fights like an [[Arquebusier]].
*Gaspar is one of the few targets that you cannot kill unnoticed.
*After the assassination, Ezio closes Gaspar's eyes the same way as he always does, even though Gaspar is wearing glasses.

{{Quote|She killed herself. Something about a relationship with a kid called Neumann.|[[Warren Vidic]]'s e-mail to [[Lucy Stillman]]|Assassin's Creed}}
'''Leila Marino''' (unknown - 2007) was an employee of [[Abstergo Industries]] until she suspiciously died. Supposedly a suicide, the circumstances surrounding her were unknown to all but a few, and the coroner's report into her death became classified by Abstergo.

Five years later, in 2012, Leila's close friend [[Lucy Stillman]] made several attempts to discover the truth behind Marino's demise, by [[E-mails|e-mailing]] several Abstergo employees, including the CEO [[Alan Rikkin]] and her supervisor, Dr. [[Warren Vidic]]. The only explanation that she received was that Marino had committed suicide over her relationship with an individual named [[Neumann]].

Den Defense

2012-04-16T02:47:36Z

86.30.157.100:

{{Era|ACR}}
[[File:DenDefense2.jpg|thumb|300px|Ezio and several Assassins defend a den.]]
Whenever the [[Byzantines|Byzantine]] [[Templars]] attacked an [[Assassin]] [[Assassin Dens|den]], the [[Italy|Italian]] [[Mentor]], [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]], would engage in a '''Den Defense''' to keep it under Assassin control.

==The process==
During a Den Defense, Ezio had the ability to command and deploy Assassins units to defend the den from approaching Templar troops. Positioning themselves on rooftops and behind barricades, the Assassin forces would wait for the impending waves of Templars.

Also, each Assassin had a combat speciality, ranging from [[Crossbowmen]] to bombers, and barricades could also be placed to halt Templar progression. In order to call in assistance, morale was used to deploy Assassins and build barricades, and was gained automatically over time and sometimes from looting Templar corpses. Occasionally, deployed Assassins could be killed and barricades destroyed, which would prompt Ezio to call in replacement troops and construct new blockades.

He could also participate in the defense more directly, by firing his [[Hidden Gun|pistol]] at approaching soldiers, which would signal his troops to attack that squadron, or, periodically, command a cannon to be fired at a group of soldiers or a war machine.

The Templars would attack in several waves, leaving little time between each for the Assassins to prepare. From there, they would advance up the street, pausing only once encountering a barricade. On their death, Templar soldiers could be looted for Akce, bomb ingredients or morale points. However, once the soldiers reached the Assassin den, they would begin attacking it, and would not stop until they forced the Assassins out or were killed.

===List of Assassin units===
*Assassin Leader: Leaders wouldn't attack the Byzantine soldiers, but they were vital, as other Assassins weren't allowed onto the rooftops unless there was a leader there. Leaders would also increase Morale over time.
*Barricade: Barricades would be placed in the streets to slow the Templars' progression to the Den. Assassins could be deployed to barricades to help defend them. Typically, one barricade would be placed in front of the Den, as a precaution at the start of the battle.
**[[Greek Fire]] Barricade: A barricade mounting a flamethrower, with high damage and short range.
**[[Machine Gun]] Barricade: A barricade mounting a repeating gun with average range, low damage, and high rate of fire.
**[[Cannon]] Barricade: A barricade mounting a small cannon with long range and high damage, but had a very low rate of fire.
*Crossbowman: An Assassin wielding a [[Crossbow]]. Possessed a high rate of fire, but dealt relatively low damage.
*Rifleman: An Assassin wielding a rifle. Dealt large amounts of damage, but had a lower rate of fire than Crossbowmen.
*Air Assassin: An Assassin wielding a [[Hidden Blade]]. These would air assassinate Byzantine troops, though they couldn't attack again quickly, as they would have to climb back up to the rooftop.
*Bruiser: An Assassin wielding a [[Swords and Maces|medium weapon]]. Highly adept at melee, but had no ranged capability.
*Caltrop Bomber: An Assassin wielding Caltrop Bombs. While not dealing much damage, they would slow down Templars caught in its effect.
*Shrapnel Bomber: An Assassin wielding Shrapnel Bombs. They would deal damage in a large radius, but couldn't throw the bombs often.

===List of Templar Units===
*Militia: Weak and poorly armored, their primary danger was in their numbers.
*[[Almogavars]]: Well-armored brutes carrying [[heavy weapons]], though they would move slowly, making them easy targets.
*Riflemen: Equipped with a rifle, these Templars could return fire at rooftop Assassins, but had a low rate of fire and weak armor.
*Bombmen: Slow and poorly armored, but were equipped with [[bombs]] that would make short work of barricades.
*Scouts: Poorly armored, but were fast and could climb over barricades.
*[[Stalkers]]: Highly dangerous in melee, they attacked Assassins on the rooftops instead of in the streets.
*[[War Machines (Den Defense)|War Machines]]: Heavily armored and slow, these were usually brought in at the very end of an assault.
**Ram: A heavily armored battering ram. It was limited to melee attacks, but dealt high amounts of damage.
**[[Greek Fire]]: A heavily armored platform with a flamethrower mounted on it. It dealt large amounts of damage near-constantly, but was limited to close range.
**[[Machine Gun]]: A heavily armored platform that fired projectiles over a long distance, dealing average damage. It was, however, ineffective against barricades.
**[[Cannon]]: A heavily armored platform with a mounted cannon. It had a very low rate of fire, but dealt extraordinary amounts of damage and had a long range.

'''Scevola Spina''' was a knight in [[Constantinople]] during the early 16th century, who was inspired by his [[Italy|Italian]] counterpart, [[Verulo Gallo]], who was also a knight that lent his abilities to the [[Templar]] cause.

Wishing to follow in his footsteps, Scevola loyally obeyed the Templars without question, eliminating any targets that they ordered him to go after. Also, mimicking his hero, he used a titanic greatsword as his weapon.

In 2012, his genetic memories were used by the Templar-owned company [[Abstergo Industries]] in the training of their [[Animus]] [[Abstergo recruits|recruits]], under the title of the [[Knight]].

'''World War II''', or the '''Second World War''', was a global military conflict lasting from 1939 to 1945. This war involved most of the world's nations, including all of the great powers that eventually formed two opposing military alliances: the Allies and the Axis.<ref name="wikipedia">Wikipedia article on [[wikipedia:World War II|World War II]]</ref>

==History==
It was the most widespread war in history, with more than 100 million military personnel mobilized. In a state of "total war", the major participants placed their entire economic, industrial, militaristic, and scientific capabilities at the service of the war effort, erasing the distinction between civilian and military resources.<ref name="wikipedia">Wikipedia article on [[wikipedia:World War II|World War II]]</ref>

Marked by significant events involving the mass death of civilians, including the Holocaust and the only use of nuclear weapons in warfare to date, it was the deadliest conflict in human history, resulting in 50 million to over 70 million fatalities.<ref name="wikipedia">Wikipedia article on [[wikipedia:World War II|World War II]]</ref>

The war began on 1 September 1939, with the invasion of Poland by [[Germany]], Slovakia, and the Soviet Union (17 days later) and with the subsequent declarations of war on Germany by [[France]] and most of the countries of the British Empire and Commonwealth.<ref name="wikipedia">Wikipedia article on [[wikipedia:World War II|World War II]]</ref>

The war ended with the total victory of the Allies over Germany and Japan. Germany surrendered 8 May 1945 after the fall of Berlin and collapse of German battle lines. In early August 1945, the USA dropped nuclear bombs on Japan, one on Hiroshima and another on Nagasaki. Japan surrendered unconditionally on 2 September 1945.<ref name="wikipedia">Wikipedia article on [[wikipedia:World War II|World War II]]</ref>

==Templar influence==
The [[Templars]] began the war in an effort to form a [[New World Order|new world government]]. [[Winston Churchill]], [[Joseph Stalin]], [[Franklin D. Roosevelt]] and [[Adolf Hitler]] were the world leaders confirmed as Templars<ref name="glyph17">[[Assassin's Creed II]] [[Glyphs|Glyph]] #17</ref>. Hitler<ref name="glyph12">[[Assassin's Creed II]] [[Glyphs|Glyph]] #12</ref> and Roosevelt<ref name="glyph3">[[Assassin's Creed II]] [[Glyphs|Glyph]] #3</ref> were the only leaders confirmed to hold [[Pieces of Eden]].

The original plan for the conclusion of the war called for a Hitler double to be found cremated in the 'Führerbunker', so that Hitler himself could escape from a besieged Berlin to meet with his fellow Templars. However, the [[Assassins]] killed the original Hitler as he departed from his bunker.<ref name="glyph17"/> It is unclear what happened to [[Fourth Apple|Hitler's Apple]] after his death.

Privateer (Animi Avatar)

86.30.157.100: Duplicate category, and the taunts section looked untidy. (Slate)

{{Era|Revelations}}
{{Stub}}
[[File:Privateer_v.png|right|180px]]
The '''Privateer''' (real name: '''[[Blaise Legros]]''') is an Animi Avatar used by [[Abstergo Industries]] to train the [[Abstergo recruits|recruits]] in the second stage of the Animi Training Program. He was available after a system update, and used a cutlass as his specialty weapon.<ref name="joystiq">[http://www.joystiq.com/2011/11/15/assassins-creed-revelations-ancestors-dlc-coming-december-13 Assassin's Creed: Revelations 'Ancestors' DLC coming December 13]</ref>

==Unique Moves==
The Privateer has several unique moves:

'''''(Low Profile, Front)'''''

The Privateer walks up to his target and unsheathes his cutlass. He then painfully smashes the hilt into his victim's face, knocking them off balance. The Privateer then takes advantage of this and stabs his sword through their abdomen, before withdrawing it and leaving them bleeding to death.

'''''(Low Profile, Back)'''''

The Privateer walks up behind his target, before unsheathing his sword and slashing it across their lower back. When his victim falls to their knees the Privateer wedges his cutlass into the right of their waist, before carelessly pushing them forwards with his foot and sheathing his weapon.

'''''(High Profile, Front)'''''

The Privateer runs up to his target and roughly pushes their head. While they stumble back, the Privateer draws his cutlass and swings it above his head. He then suddenly slashes to the left, severing his victim's jugular vein and causing them to collapse to the floor as he sheathes his sword.

'''''(High Profile, Back)'''''

The Privateer rushes up behind his target and withdraws his weapon and cruelly slashes the weapon across their upper back. As his victim reacts to this unexpected attack, the Privateer slashes into the right of their chest, slashing their lung from behind and getting his sword wedged in their abdomen. To free his cutlass the Privateer kicks his victim's legs from behind, forcing them on their back.

'''''(Bench Kill)'''''

The Privateer grabs his seated target's foot and drags them off the bench, until their head rests against it. Before his victim can do anything to defend themselves, the Privateer forcefully kicks them in the face, violently sending their head backwards and breaking his target's neck on the bench behind them.

'''''(Aerial Kill)'''''

The Privateer leaps from above and draws his cutlass in midair. His target looks up and is unable to stop their pursuer crashing down on top of them, stabbing their chest, impaling their heart and killing them instantly. The Privateer then sheathes his sword and leaves his victim dead.

==Taunts==
*''"It's all over now!"''

'''Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci''' (1452 - 1519) was an anatomist, sculptor, cartographer, painter, botanist, engineer, architect and mathematician of the [[Renaissance]].

Leonardo played an important role in the struggle between the [[Assassins]] and [[Templars]], which raged across his homeland throughout his lifetime, all the while remaining a close friend and ally to the [[Florence|Florentine]] Assassin [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]].

==Biography==
===Early life===
Leonardo was born in 1452 out of wedlock in Vinci, a town outside of Florence, Italy, to a Florentine notary named [[wikipedia:Piero da Vinci|Piero da Vinci]], and a local woman named Caterina. He spent most of his early childhood in nearby rural [[Tuscany]], so as to spare his father the embarrassment of a scandal.

However, young Leonardo's innate artistic prowess was obvious to his elders even then, and when he turned fourteen he was returned to Florence, apprenticed to the workshop of renowned painter [[Andrea del Verrocchio]]; while there, he is said to have collaborated with the Verrocchio on his masterpiece, ''[[wikipedia:Baptism of Christ|Baptism of Christ]]''.

===Florence===
At age 20, Leonardo was titled a master by the [[wikipedia:Guild of Saint Luke|Guild of Saint Luke]], and opened his first [[Bottega di Leonardo|workshop]] in Florence, where he continued to collaborate with his old master. During his time there, he also befriended the [[House of Auditore|Auditore family]], who he sold most of his paintings to.<ref name="AC2">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref>

====Meeting Ezio====
{{Dialogue|Leonardo|I often feel that my work lacks... I don't know... purpose.|Maria|You should have more faith in yourself, Leonardo.|Leonardo speaking with Maria Auditore.|Assassin's Creed: Renaissance}}

[[File:Friend 3 v.png|thumb|right|250px|Leonardo upon his meeting with Ezio.]]
In 1476, Leonardo met Ezio Auditore when the latter accompanied [[Maria Auditore da Firenze|his mother]] to pick up some paintings from Leonardo’s workshop. The two conversed inside the workshop of the artist, talking about Leonardo's paintings, and what else he could do aside from painting.<ref name="Renaissance"/>

However, Ezio remarked to his mother that Leonardo would not come that far, seeing that he was incapable of even keeping his workplace tidy. Ezio's mother, however, was very confident of Leonardo's future, complimenting him multiple times on his talent and telling him he should have more faith in himself.<ref name="Renaissance">''[[Assassin's Creed: Renaissance]]''</ref>

Soon after their conversation, the three headed back to the [[Palazzo Auditore]], Ezio and Leonardo carrying one box each, filled with paintings to hang on the walls. Again, Ezio commented on Leonardo's seeming incapability, but he soon felt he was wrong about the so-called "fledgling artist" as they arrived at the Palazzo, noting that Leonardo was one to respect. This encounter sparked the lifelong friendship between the two young men.<ref name="Renaissance"/>

====Building the Hidden Blade====
{{Dialogue2|Leonardo|Anything which shines glints in the sun, and that's a dead giveaway.|Ezio|I thought you were a man of peace.|Ideas take precedence.|Ezio commenting on Leonardo after he finishes repairing the Hidden Blade.|Assassin's Creed: Renaissance}}

After the [[Auditore Execution|execution]] of [[Giovanni Auditore da Firenze|Giovanni]], [[Federico Auditore da Firenze|Federico]], and [[Petruccio Auditore da Firenze|Petruccio Auditore]], Leonardo met Ezio once again, greeting him with a brotherly embrace. He was then requested by Ezio to repair the [[Hidden Blade]] he had inherited from his father. Leonardo was immediately fascinated by its sophisticated and advanced design, as it, despite its old age, was way ahead of even their time.<ref name="AC2" />

[[File:Ace 7 v.png|left|250px|thumb|Leonardo prepares to amputate Ezio's finger.]]
At first, Leonardo had no idea how to repair it, but soon discovered that [[Codex|the scroll]] Ezio had included with the weapon could be decrypted, and used as a manual. It took Leonardo some hours to decode the page, and finish the repairs to the hidden blade.<ref name="AC2" />

Leonardo woke up Ezio, who had fallen asleep in the meantime, and handed the weapon over to him. Leonardo claimed that Ezio's ring finger had to be removed, because "the blade is designed to ensure the commitment of whoever wields it."<ref name="AC2" />

This was only for his own amusement however, as he only made to cut off Ezio's finger, before simply embedding the cleaver into the table next to Ezio's hand. Assuring the other that he was only "having fun," Leonardo explained that the blade had been modified so that the removal of the finger was no longer necessary.<ref name="AC2" />

Immediately after this, a Florentine [[guards|guard]] showed up at Leonardo's workshop. Leonardo quickly told Ezio to stay hidden in his workshop, while he opened the door for the guard, keeping him outside. The guard knew that Leonardo had been in contact with Ezio, and as Leonardo tried to act ignorant of the Assassin, the guard threw him to the ground and started kicking him several times in order to extract Ezio's whereabouts.<ref name="AC2" />

Ezio promptly sneaked up behind the guard and tested out his newly acquired weapon on him. Afterwards, Ezio brought the body inside the workshop upon Leonardo's request, hiding it among the bodies that were used for the artist's anatomical research.<ref name="AC2" />

[[File:PWYP 4 v.png|thumb|right|250px|Leonardo studying another Codex page.]]
Leonardo and Ezio didn't meet again until 1478, when Ezio visited him with another Codex page attained from his uncle [[Mario Auditore]]. He deciphered the page, as Ezio practiced several new assassination techniques in Leonardo's yard with straw dummies, which had been set up by one of Leonardo's students, Vincenzo.<ref name="AC2" />

Afterwards, Leonardo constructed a second hidden blade for his friend's disposal. Shortly after practicing with it, Ezio inquired about [[Francesco de' Pazzi]], which prompted Leonardo to discreetly tell him that he needed to seek out [[La Volpe]]. Leonardo assured Ezio that "the Fox" had [[thieves|eyes]] everywhere, that he saw everything, though no one ever saw him.<ref name="AC2" />

Leonardo advised Ezio to find him at the [[Mercato Vecchio]], and reminded him to be careful. After this, Leonardo only met Ezio to periodically decipher new Codex pages.<ref name="AC2" />

After Ezio put an end to the [[Pazzi Conspiracy]], he visited Leonardo once more, who had been deeply worried about his friend after seeing the recent "madness" going on in Florence. He was soon cheered up by yet another Codex page, which Ezio had received from [[Lorenzo de' Medici]].<ref name="AC2" />

Leonardo was astonished by the [[Poison blade|new blade design]], as it had been developed to allow the wielder to inject poison into their enemies for a more subtle kill, without weakening its structure. Leonardo finished manufacturing the design rather quickly, telling Ezio that if he ran out of poison, he should visit a [[Doctors|doctor]]. This confused Ezio, but Leonardo explained that the same substances that could cure could kill in higher doses.<ref name="AC2" />

====Moving to Venice====
{{Quote|Ezio! I think I've figured out how to make a man fly.|Leonardo speaking of his flying machine.|Assassin's Creed II}}

[[File:Tutti a Bordo 13.png|thumb|left|250px|Leonardo and Ezio on the boat to Venice.]]
In 1480, Leonardo received a commission from a Venetian noble, who graciously offered to transport the artist to [[Venice]], as well as provide him with a workshop there.<ref name="AC2" />

As he travelled to the ship bound for Venice, Leonardo once again met Ezio in the [[Appennine Mountains]]. The artist was faced with the problem of a broken [[wagon]] wheel and, lacking the means to fix it himself, was relieved to be able to ask Ezio to lift the carriage. Ezio noticed the contraption inside the wagon as he did and questioned him it, prompting the first conversation in which Leonardo mentioned his [[Flying Machine]].<ref name="AC2" />

Leonardo admitted that he had not yet told anyone about it, but said that he could keep the idea to himself any longer. Ezio, amused by Leonardo’s device, offered to drive the wagon for them both. As they set off for Romagna, Leonardo curiously commented that he had not even told him where he was going.<ref name="AC2" />

During the trip, the wagon was attacked by the soldiers of [[Rodrigo Borgia]], threatening their lives all the way through the mountains. Ezio held them off by steering the wagon into the [[horses]] of the soldiers, and dodging the burning arrows the soldiers had started shooting at them.<ref name="AC2" />

Throughout the ordeal, Leonardo was safely hidden inside the wagon, but as they reached the end of the trail, Ezio handed control of the carriage back to him. The Assassin then jumped off, staying behind to deal with the soldiers so Leonardo could get to Romagna safely.<ref name="AC2" />

The two met up at the docks in Romagna, where they were scheduled to set sail for Venice, after Ezio went through an ordeal involving [[Caterina Sforza]].<ref name="AC2" />

===Venice===
{{Dialogue|Ezio|Antonio, this is Leonardo. The master inventor who built... this... this pezzo di merda.|Leonardo|Hey! It's not the machine's fault! ...It's mine. I've checked and rechecked my blueprints. It's just impossible! [...] Ah, che idea del cazzo!|Leonardo and Ezio, visited by Antonio after the failed test flight.|Assassin's Creed II}}

[[File:NVNG 1.png|thumb|250px|Ezio asking Leonardo for the use of his flying machine.]]
Upon their arrival in Venice, Leonardo and Ezio were given a tour of the city by a baggage handler named [[Alvise da Vilandino]], as they headed towards his new workshop. During the tour, the three stopped at the market of Venice, where a few guards started harassing a stall owner under the command of [[Emilio Barbarigo]]. Alvise hurriedly advised them to follow him elsewhere.<ref name="AC2" />

As Leonardo walked past a store, he found a wooden puppet that resembled the human body and its proportions, but had no money on him to buy it. He asked Ezio if he could lend some money, however, at that moment, a [[Rosa|female thief]] bumped into him and stole his wallet.<ref name="AC2" />

Alvise again guided them onward, near the [[Palazzo della Seta]]. The three saw the harassed stall owner walk up to the guards at the entrance of the Palazzo to demand compensation, but the guards only arrested him for "disrupting commerce."<ref name="AC2" />

As they arrived at his workshop, Ezio informed Leonardo that he needed to visit the Palazzo, at which Leonardo invited him to come over whenever he had more time, or if he needed another Codex page decrypted. He and Ezio then parted ways with a brotherly embrace.<ref name="AC2" />

In 1485, Ezio again consulted Leonardo for his expertise, but this time for something other than a decryption. He inquired about Leonardo’s flying machine, hoping to use it in order to invade the [[Palazzo Ducale di Venezia]], andrescue [[Giovanni Mocenigo|Doge Mocenigo]] from the Templar [[Carlo Grimaldi]].<ref name="AC2" />

Leonardo, however, was afraid of the consequences should something be wrong with his design, as it required the person testing it to jump off a tower. However, Ezio insisted, and after one failed test flight, Leonardo deemed the machine useless and flew into a fit of rage, throwing the plans for it into the fire.<ref name="AC2" />

At that moment, he was inspired by the piece of burnt paper, seeing it floating upwards from the heat of the fire. Leonardo concluded that, in order for Ezio to reach his destination, they had to light several fires across the city, and allow the flying machine to maintain altitude over a longer distance.<ref name="AC2" />

====Carnevale====
{{Quote|I know what this is! It's a [[Firearms|firearm]], but a miniature scale - as small as a hummingbird, in fact.|Leonardo on the Hidden Gun design.|Assassin's Creed: Renaissance}}

[[File:EzioLeonardoCarnevale.jpg|thumb|left|250px|Ezio and Leonardo during Carnevale.]]
In 1486, after being accused of the murder of the Doge, Ezio came to Leonardo asking for a [[Carnevale]] mask, so that he would not be noticed. He also bore another Codex page, much to Leonardo's interest, as he discovered that it contained plans for a [[Hidden Gun|small firearm]] that could be concealed upon Ezio's wrist; an ''arma da fuoco'', but as small as a hummingbird, as he stated.<ref name="AC2" />

After Ezio tested the pistol, Leonardo gave him the mask he had requested, and pointed him in the direction of Sister [[Teodora Contanto]] and [[Antonio de Magianis]], so he could plot to assassinate the new Doge: the Templar [[Marco Barbarigo]].<ref name="AC2" />

Just before the Doge's party started, Leonardo recognized [[Cristina Vespucci]] - a previous guest of one of his patron - who was attending Venice's Carnevale with [[Manfredo Soderini|her husband]].<ref name="Renaissance" /> He informed Ezio of her presence, though also said that it might not be a good time to see her because of her husband. Ezio, however, having his new mask to cloak him, thought that she would not recognize him anyway, and [[Cristina Memories|went to see her]] against Leonardo's advice.<ref name="Brotherhood">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref>

====Apple from Cyprus====
{{Dialogue2|Leonardo|Fascinating... Absolutely fascinating...|Ezio|What is it, Leonardo? What does it do?|I could no more explain this than explain to you why the Earth goes around the sun!|Leonardo studying the Apple of Eden.|Assassin's Creed II}}

In 1488, Leonardo and Ezio met by the [[Basilica di San Marco]], just after Ezio discovered that a Templar ship was returning to Venice the next day. Leonardo pointed out several key facts that he had discovered, by piecing together the markings on the back of the Codex pages; such as the arrival of a "prophet" on the day the [[Pieces of Eden|Piece of Eden]] was brought to the floating city, Venice.<ref name="AC2" />

[[File:Leo_work_4.png|thumb|250px|Leonardo seeing futuristic symbols from the Apple.]]
Later that year, Ezio, Mario, and [[Niccolò Machiavelli]] visited Leonardo to see if he was able to make sense of the [[Ezio's Apple|Apple of Eden]], which they had successfully obtained from Rodrigo Borgia. However, even the master inventor could not figure out what it was, stating that it was as unexplainable as the fact that the Earth went around the sun.<ref name="AC2 - Battle of Forlì">''[[Assassin's Creed II]] - [[Battle of Forlì (DLC)]]''</ref>

Leonardo pondered on both the artifact's names, "the Apple" and "Piece of Eden", suggesting that it could be similar to "[[Eve]]'s Apple of Forbidden Knowledge." When Ezio touched the Apple, accidentally activating it, Leonardo bore witness to the symbols and projections the Piece of Eden emitted, though Niccolò and Mario fell to the floor in pain. Ezio, slightly less affected, quickly deactivated the artifact.<ref name="AC2 - Battle of Forlì" />

Leonardo commented that the Apple should never fall into the wrong hands, since it would drive weaker minds insane. They then decided that it should be taken to [[Forlì]], which was well fortified, and ruled by their ally, Caterina Sforza. As they departed, Mario offered that Leonardo come and visit them at the [[Villa Auditore]].<ref name="AC2 - Battle of Forlì" />

====Pythagoras====
Leonardo stayed at the villa until 1499,<ref name="AC2"/> where he started to become interested in the findings of [[Pythagoras]], and the location of the [[Temple of Pythagoras]].<ref name="Brotherhood - Da Vinci Disappearance">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' - ''[[The Da Vinci Disappearance]]''</ref>

He managed to create a map pointing out the temple's location, and used invisible ink to drew pieces of it onto his paintings, which hung on the villa walls.<ref name="Brotherhood - Da Vinci Disappearance" />

===Rome===
{{Dialogue2|Leonardo|There is graver news, I am afraid. They have the Apple.|Ezio|Yes, I know. I gave the Apple to Mario.|I am sorry, Ezio. Cesare left it in my hands to study, to make it work. Then Rodrigo took it from me, I know not where.|Leonardo and Ezio meeting in Rome.|Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood}}

In late 1499, Leonardo was forcibly pressed into designing several [[War Machines|war machines]] for [[Cesare Borgia]], son of Rodrigo Borgia, which were used in the [[Fall of Monteriggioni|siege of Monteriggioni]] early the next year.<ref name="Brotherhood" />

Leonardo was also forced to fashion ''pistole'', one of which was used to kill Mario Auditore. These [[firearms]] were also used by the [[Papal Guard]], and by Cesare in the [[Siege of Viana]]. Despite this, Leonardo remained an ally of the Assassins, secretly meeting with Ezio to inform him of Cesare's plans.<ref name="Brotherhood" />

He turned over the locations of the Templars overseeing his war machines, and requested that he destroy them. Leonardo also fashioned weapons and other items for Ezio's use.<ref name="Brotherhood" />

Leonardo also aided Ezio's [[apprentices]] by providing them with the same inventions and weapons he built for Ezio himself. [[Francesco Vecellio]] in particular was impressed with Leonardo, and saw him as a ''"strange man, interested in art and invention more than politics."''<ref name="Project Legacy">''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]''</ref>

====War Machines====
[[File:Visitor 3.png|thumb|left|250px|Leonardo upon seeing Ezio in Rome.]]
To avoid Templar scrutiny, Leonardo and Ezio would meet at different locations chosen by Leonardo, and denoted with a drawing of a hand on a bench, as a signal for Ezio to wait for him there.<ref name="Brotherhood" />

During their meetings, Leonardo agreed to reconstruct a second, smaller hidden blade that could fit against a standard glove, in order to replace the one Ezio had lost during the fall of Monteriggioni. He also provided him with a [[Metal Cestus#Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood|reinforced glove]] to allow Ezio to use the Climb Leap technique, and a forearm-mounted [[Poison darts|poison dart]] launcher.<ref name="Brotherhood" />

However, due to being paid "very little" by the Templars, Leonardo needed to ask Ezio for the money for the raw materials upfront. After the war machines were finally destroyed, Leonardo also designed a [[Parachutes|parachute]] that could be built by sympathetic Roman [[tailors]], though his design (or at least the materials used) would not survive the landings, and would need to be replaced after every use.<ref name="Brotherhood" />

====Parting====
[[File:LeonardoEzioApple.jpg|thumb|250px|Leonardo next to Ezio using the Apple of Eden.]]
When the Assassins finally secured the Apple of Eden from the Borgia, Ezio and Leonardo met at the [[Tiber Island headquarters|headquarters]] on [[Tiber Island]]. Leonardo mourned the need to lock away the Apple, likening it to a masterpiece being hidden away from the world, though he did not oppose Ezio's decision.<ref name="Brotherhood" />

Additionally, as Leonardo's patron had been arrested and his income was still meager, Ezio turned over a sum of money to his friend, and they parted on good terms, although Leonardo refused to accept the money if it was meant to be a "goodbye."<ref name="Brotherhood" />

====The Pythagorean Temple====
{{Quote|Ever since my exploration of that strange Apple, [those symbols] have been stamped on my mind. I found symbols like them in the writings of the Pythagorean disciples.|Leonardo on his obsession with the Apple's projections.|Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood}}

[[File:ACBSP 2011-04-12 00-08-19-92.png|thumb|left|250px|Leonardo and Ezio looking at the unfinished Mona Lisa.]]
When Leonardo returned to Rome in 1506, he made contact with the [[Hermeticists|Cult of Hermes]], and he frequently visited the personal library of their leader, [[Ercole Massimo]]. There, he researched about Pythagoras, a brilliant mathematician who had once also dealings with a Piece of Eden. Eventually, Leonardo was kidnapped by the Hermeticists, who wanted him to give them the location of the temple.<ref name="Brotherhood - Da Vinci Disappearance"/>

With the aid of Leonardo's apprentice [[Salaì]], Ezio hunted down the paintings that had been seized by the Borgia during the fall of Monteriggioni, as Leonardo had left them a hint that the map was hidden within them. Using his [[Eagle Vision]], Ezio pieced together the hidden map and the temple's location.<ref name="Brotherhood - Da Vinci Disappearance"/>

By that time, Leonardo had been taken away to be interrogated in the catacombs that led to the Temple of Pythagoras, where Ezio eventually caught up with him. Ezio killed all the Hermeticists, including Ercole, and rescued Leonardo. Despite his injured from the ordeal, Leonardo insisted that he and Ezio venture deeper into the catacombs to explore the Temple of Pythagoras together.<ref name="Brotherhood - Da Vinci Disappearance"/>

[[File:TToP 8.png|right|thumb|250px|Leonardo and Ezio walking out of the Vault.]]
They eventually reached the final chamber, and Ezio recognized the room's architecture – a surviving [[Temples|Temple]] designed by the [[First Civilization]]. Though Ezio's DNA communed with a pedestal and revealed what would be coordinates, he decided that it was best to leave it, despite Leonardo being eager to learn and explore more.<ref name="Brotherhood - Da Vinci Disappearance"/>

Ezio quickly distracted Leonardo by asking him about his future plans, which Leonardo gladly revealed as they walked out of the temple.<ref name="Brotherhood - Da Vinci Disappearance"/>

====Invitation into the Order====
After his rescue from the Hermeticists, Leonardo traveled with Niccolò and Ezio to [[Spain]] to chase down [[Micheletto Corella]], and stop him from freeing Cesare. After surviving wild seas, a skirmish in a bar, long horse rides and constructing [[bombs]], Leonardo decided that he had enough of traveling and fighting, and returned to Rome, leaving Ezio and Niccolò to destroy Borgia warships with handheld bombs he had crafted for them, and battle Cesare.<ref name="Brotherhood novel">[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood (novel)|''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'' novel]]</ref>

After Ezio killed Cesare in [[wikipedia:Navarre|Navarre]] during the Siege of Viana, Leonardo met again with Ezio and Niccolò at Ezio's forty-eighth birthday party. Ezio offered Leonardo a place in the Assassin Order, though Leonardo refused, saying that although he respected and supported the Assassins' goals, he wanted to tread a different path: "a solitary one."<ref name="Brotherhood novel"/>

Leonardo left for [[Milan]] afterwards, from which he would leave for [[Amboise]] in [[France]].<ref name="Brotherhood novel"/>

===Later life===
{{Quote|All my life - while I thought I was learning to live, I have simply been learning how to die.|Leonardo to Ezio and Niccolò, a week before his death.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations (novel)}}
Leonardo spent his last years in France, at the home awarded to him by King [[Wikipedia:Francis I of France|Francis I]], who became his generous employer and close friend. Leonardo took his most famous painting, the ''[[Mona Lisa]]'', with him when he retired to France in 1513.<ref name="Revelations novel">[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations (novel)|''Assassin's Creed: Revelations'' novelization]]</ref>

In late April of 1519, Leonardo was visited by Ezio and Machiavelli in his home in Amboise, after he had sent a letter to Niccolò about his deteriorating health. Leonardo, rejoiced at the sight of his old friends, quickly offering them cakes and wine, to the dissatisfaction of his manservant [[Etienne]].<ref name="Revelations novel" />

Leonardo eagerly spoke of his desire to visit [[wikipedia:Henry VIII of England|King Henry VIII]] of [[England]], who had expressed interest in buying the designs of his submarine. However, Leonardo quickly gave in to the inevitable, and revealed that he was dying.<ref name="Revelations novel" />

Ezio and Niccolò stayed with Leonardo the next week, until Leonardo died on 2 May 1519. They were present with him at the moment he died. On their journey back from Amboise, Niccolò recalled a rumour that Leonardo had died in King Francis' arms, to which Ezio remarked "'Some people - even Kings - will do anything for publicity'".<ref name="Revelations novel" />

==Characteristics and personality==
{{Dialogue|Ezio|Leo - does this machine of yours actually ''work''?|Leonardo|Well, it's in the early stages. I mean, it's nowhere near ready yet - but I think, in all modesty, that - yes! Of course it will work. God knows I've spent enough time on it! It's an idea that just won't let go of me!|Leonardo's attitude on his flying machine design.|Assassin's Creed: Renaissance}}

[[File:LeonardoJoke.png|thumb|250px|left|Leonardo, before 'removing' Ezio's finger.]]
Leonardo was a cheerful and optimistic man. Ezio was his best friend, and as such, he treated him like a brother, and took great risks to protect him, even though he later said that courage was not his strong suit.<ref name="AC2" />

Despite being an accomplished and respected artist, as well as deeply curious about the world's wonders, Leonardo was also a chronic procrastinator. Most of his commissioned works took years longer than anticipated, and many were never even finished. It is possible that this was because he did not feel his work to be important enough to devote his life to, as when he met Ezio, he complained that it lacked purpose and he wishes to do something which had more impact on the world, such as architecture. He was also very critical of his work, as shown when he and Ezio talked about the Mona Lisa.<ref name="AC2" />

Regardless, when Leonardo was intrigued by something, he became insatiably curious and often impossible to communicate with, as demonstrated when Ezio first brought him [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad|Altaïr]]'s [[Codex]] pages for decryption.<ref name="AC2" />

Leonardo was often forgetful and easily distracted. Ezio exploited this in the [[Pythagorean Vault]] by asking Leonardo about his projects, and taking his mind off the mysterious images and numbers they were gazing at.<ref name="Brotherhood - Da Vinci Disappearance" />

===Romantic life===
Leonardo appeared to be homosexual, as this was hinted at several times. When speaking to Ezio in Rome, he mentioned his work on the ''Mona Lisa'', and Ezio warned him not to allow pretty girls to distract him from making the designs he needed. With his arm around him, Leonardo lightly assured Ezio that women would ''"provide little distraction"'' to his work.<ref name="Brotherhood" />

Additionally, he seemed to be in a relationship with his assistant, Salaì. While exploring the Pythagorean Temple, Ezio and Leonardo conversed briefly about Salaì. Leonardo asked where he was, but quickly clarified that he was only concerned about Salaì's careless spending. Ezio assured him that Salaì was safe at home, much to Leonardo's relief. Ezio also commented that he fit Leonardo, and that he approved, leaving the other nervously speechless.<ref name="Brotherhood - Da Vinci Disappearance" />

==Legacy==
Leonardo is renowned primarily as a painter. Two of his works, the ''Mona Lisa'' and ''[[wikipedia:The Last Supper|The Last Supper]]'', are the most famous, most reproduced, and most parodied portrait and religious paintings of all time, their fame approached only by [[Michelangelo]]'s ''[[wikipedia:The Creation of Adam|Creation of Adam]]''. Leonardo's drawing of the [[wikipedia:Vitruvian Man|Vitruvian Man]] is also regarded as a cultural icon.<ref name="Wikipedia">''Wikipedia:'' [[wikipedia:Leonardo da Vinci|Leonardo da Vinci]]</ref>

[[File:ACB-TDVD-LeonardoWorkshop.jpg|thumb|right|250px|One of Leonardo's workshops.]]
Only around fifteen of his paintings survived, due to frequently disastrous, experimentation with new techniques, and his chronic procrastination. Nevertheless, these few works, and his notebooks are an invaluable contribution to later generations of artists.<ref name="Wikipedia" />

Indeed, Leonardo could arguably be considered the most iconic artist of the Italian Renaissance, with only a handful of his contemporaries (most notably Leonardo's chief artistic rival and fellow Florentine, Michelangelo) posing a realistic challenge.<ref name="Wikipedia" />

Leonardo is also revered for his technological ingenuity. He conceptualized a helicopter, a tank, concentrated solar power, a calculator, the double-hull, and outlined a rudimentary theory of plate tectonics. Relatively few of his designs were constructed or even feasible during his lifetime, save for some of his smaller inventions. As a scientist, he greatly advanced the state of knowledge in the fields of anatomy, civil engineering, optics, and hydrodynamics.<ref name="Wikipedia" />

==Trivia==
;History
*Leonardo had no surname; "da Vinci" simply means "from Vinci," identifying the town of his birth, much in the same manner that "Ezio Auditore da Firenze" shows that Ezio was born in Florence. Historically, surnames as modern society knows them were still fairly uncommon during his time.
*Historically, Leonardo became a close friend and military engineer for Cesare Borgia, son of Rodrigo Borgia.
*In author Dan Brown's novel ''[[wikipedia:The Da Vinci Code|The Da Vinci Code]]'', it is suggested that Leonardo da Vinci was the Grand Master of a secret society known as the [[wikipedia:Priory of Sion|Priory of Sion]], an organization that was allegedly connected with the Knights Templar.
*Ezio uses a [[Wikipedia:Wheellock|wheellock firearm]], based on a design found in the Codex pages, which historically wasn't developed until just after the time-frame of the game. Historically, Leonardo designed some of the first wheel-lock firearms.

;Inventions and art
*Leonardo and Giovanni Auditore are the only known ones to be able to decipher and translate Altaïr's Codex.
*When Ezio accidentally activates the Apple of Eden in Venice, images similar to Leonardo's later designs for the [[Tank]] can be briefly glimpsed. This experience may have provided him with the ideas for his later inventions.
[[File:Mapofimola.jpg|thumb|Leonardo's map of Imola.]]
*Eight of the thirty collectible [[paintings]] that are placed in the Villa Auditore were painted by Leonardo.
*A map of the city of Imola that Leonardo drew for Cesare Borgia appears frequently in-game; on a wall in the [[Hideout]], in Leonardo's workshop, as the Codex map that Caterina gives to Ezio, and in a [[Lairs of Romulus|Lair of Romulus]], on the ground. It also appeared on a wall in his workshop in Florence in ''Assassin's Creed II'', even though he would not have completed it until 1502.

;Appearance and behavior
*In ''Assassin's Creed II'', like other main characters, Leonardo's appearance does not change throughout the 23 years he is shown in the game, from his first encounter. to the decoding of the Codex in the villa in 1499. This was rectified in ''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'', where Leonardo is depicted older with a longer beard and slightly greying hair.
*In ''Assassin's Creed II'', the cut-scene when Ezio visits Leonardo is the same each time (even after Leonardo moves to Venice), except when the Codex pages provide new modifications to Ezio's equipment.
*In ''Assassin's Creed II'', Leonardo is shown as right-handed, but in ''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'', he is left-handed, as he was known to be historically.

;Others
*Leonardo has the same voice actor as the [[Rafiq]] in [[Damascus]] from ''Assassins Creed'', [[Carlos Ferro]].
*In ''Assassin's Creed II'', the only time the player can explore Leonardo's Workshop is when they are disposing of the dead body in "[[Ace Up My Sleeve]]." In ''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood,'' it can only be explored while assembling Leonardo's map during "[[Decoding Da Vinci]]."
*During the second Cristina memory in ''Assassins Creed: Brotherhood'', Ezio can explore the interior of Leonardo's Workshop in Florence.
*You can kill Leonardo during the memories "[[Friend of the Family]]" or "[[All Things Come to He Who Waits]]."
*The strategic map of Rome that comes with the Codex edition of ''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'' contains some mirrored writing. Historically, Leonardo was skilled in mirrored writing.
*In a [http://www.gameinformer.com/b/features/archive/2012/03/09/building-the-assassin-39-s-creed-universe.aspx GameInformer interview], [[Corey May]] stated that one thing he greatly regretted not showing in-game was Ezio being with Leonardo when he died.

== Era tags ==

Hi Vatsa, sorry to be bothering you with this but I was wondering if you could tell me how to make/code the connection for the era icons image that appear on top of the articles. I have made some for the Hitman wiki but don't kow how to code the attachment tag i.e. {Era|Revelation} (this image) plus the code to get it to work on an article but in my case it would be {Era|Blood Money}. P.S I left out the "{" and "}" on here so it would show in text format. -- ► '''''[[User:Kaloneous|Kaloneous]]''''' ◄[[User talk:Kaloneous| ♣HelpDesk♣]] 19:04, February 1, 2012 (UTC)

== Hey ==

Hey mate. I've said my goodbyes to everyone else, but I have one final request from you. While I do apologize for the absence, I have to congratulate you on your promotion as well. Take care of yourself and keep doing what you do. But my final request is this: If you can, delete everything pretaining to my userpage, talkpage and blogs. If possible, try and find a way to remove my Wikia profile as a whole, because I don't know if it's possible. Thanks again, mate.

== ACR Novel Revamp- Apologies ==

Hello Vatsa.

Sorry for not revamping the ACR novel article for so long now, I was going to remove the template today when I got back from school. I've recently been quite busy with boarding school things and was doing smaller edits the few recent weeks. I had actually been doing the plot things on Microsoft Word, but I haven't exactly perfected them and have only reached chapter 10. The other reason I haven't been putting full effort into it was because I thought I wasn't exactly ready for this sort of revamp yet, so I thought maybe I would postpone my work on it some time later when I did other work at the wiki. I sorta need to thank you too for removing the template. I hope you don't take me for being someone who just works on something, leaves it and never '''return '''to it, I do intend to give it a shot again.

Sincerely, [[User:Falco_Luce_del_Sud-Est|'''IlFalcone.OfAwhShumness''']] 07:10, February 23, 2012 (UTC)

:I can understand your situation, Falcon. Since you hadn't edited the article for a few weeks now, I had to remove that tag cause someone else might want to work on it.

:The Spanish wiki has agreed to post a notice on their main page attribution the information and images to our wiki, hence I've allowed them to add the language link. If you notice any other language link other than the Spanish, check their wiki's page to see if it contains any images that was taken from our wiki and is left un-attributed. If so, then you are free to remove the interwiki link. [http://assassinscreed.wikia.com/index.php?title=Amunet&curid=5388&diff=271706&oldid=271705 Here's] and example of a reverted edit.

== Akce symbol ==

Hey Vatsa, is there any way you could obtain the symbol for the currency in Revelations? I figured since you know about the wiki's coding, you might be the best to ask about this sort of thing. The reason I'm asking is because it would make the ACR weapons/armour pages match up to how Florins are displayed in the AC2/ACB ones. [[User:Slate Vesper|Slate Vesper]] 13:47, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

:The Florin (ƒ) symbol is a Unicode, hence universal. But the Akçe symbol is something Ubisoft made. So we'll basically have to create a font and load it with the wiki's css. And that involves a bit of work and templates. (Not sure if I'm up for that.) However there are a few Greek and Latin A's that match the in-game Akçe icon.. --[[User:Vatsa1708|<tt>'''Vatsa'''</tt>]] ([[User talk:Vatsa1708|talk]] • [[w::c:prototype|Gentek]]) 17:18, March 1, 2012 (UTC)

So I uploaded the NZ Assassin Insignia just a moment ago, then reuploaded a transparent version cus I forgot to do it the first time, and I was just about to add it to my page, and then I noticed it was a ''terrible'' transparency job I did. So rather than clog up the RC with continuous attempts at making it look good I was wondering if you could work your magic and make it completely transparent.

==Masons==
Please tell me have you read it full? It's not related to AC universe as one of Ezio's memories but it is a subject to tread. Tell me why did you delete it? The masons are a secret organisation and like Dante Aligniati or Nicola Tesla, this is an outside subject but with a very high value...really I spent 5 hours documenting, introduced George W. Bush who also has an article on this wiki, just so that it will have good quality.

I was so excited when joining this wiki, but now I feel like Vali cel Tradat. :( {{Unsigned|Jesper Loore}}

:Well then, if this is the way things are working I think I can do better without the . I thank you for all the information that helped me open my eyes, but since I cannot offer any information back, there is nothing left for me to do here. By the way, The Masons are just as important as the speculations of Kennedy's assassination or the fact that kis murderer is said to be a "templar". After all everything is just an interpretation without specific proof.

Again thank you for introducing me to this speculations universe and then brutally rejecting me to continue the line.

== VatsaBot ==
Hey Vatsa, just looked over the [[2012 Conversations]] page and when I looked at the edit history, I noticed that it did do some corrections right, but it added a lot of spacing in between a bullet point and the text afterwards, which is unneeded because bulletpoints show the gap anyway on the other end.

Is there something you can do to tweak it so that it doesn't do it any more? [[User:Slate Vesper|Slate Vesper]] 09:50, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

:I don't see that as a particularly big issue, Slate. You only notice the spacing while editing, and the only spacing that's displayed in the actual article are more than 3-4 spaces between a heading or two paragraphs if we add them. The spacing between the sentence and the bulletpoints are hardly noticeable in the actual article itself.. --[[User:Vatsa1708|<tt>'''Vatsa'''</tt>]] ([[User talk:Vatsa1708|talk]] • [[w::c:prototype|Gentek]]) 14:33, March 10, 2012 (UTC)

After all, the Swords of Eden are swords, pretty much because swords were used in a lot of cultures as weapons. To make a Tomahawk of Eden would simply be pandering to the Native American culture I feel.

Brigand

2012-02-16T01:41:04Z

86.30.157.100: /* Taunts */ Just found this one out.

{{Era|Revelations}}
{{Stub}}
[[File:Brigand Render.png|right|200px]]
The '''Brigand''' (real name: '''[[Samila Khadim]]''') was an Animi Avatar used by [[Abstergo Industries]] to train the [[Abstergo recruits|recruits]] in the second stage of their Animi Training Program. She was available after a system update.<ref name="joystiq">[http://www.joystiq.com/2011/11/15/assassins-creed-revelations-ancestors-dlc-coming-december-13 Assassin's Creed: Revelations 'Ancestors' DLC coming December 13]</ref> She traded in relics and secrets, earning her wealth by serving the Templar cause, and used a spear as her specialty weapon.

==Unique Moves==
The Brigand had several unique moves:

'''''(Low Profile, Front)'''''

The Brigand approaches her target and retrieves her spear from her back. Before they can defend themselves, the Brigand impales her victim in the stomach with her weapon, before she wrenches it upwards, opening the newly-inflicted wound further. Withdrawing her spear, the Brigand watches her victim slump to the floor as she stores her weapon at her back.

'''''(Low Profile, Back)'''''

The Brigand walks up behind her target and unsheathes her spear, before suddenly slashing the bladed tip across the back of their shoulder blades twice. Following her attack through, the Brigand brutally impales her spear into her victim's back, stabbing through their heart from behind and killing them instantly.

'''''(High Profile, Front)'''''

The Brigand rushes to her target and grabs her spear, before cruelly stabbing it through their neck, rooting them to the spot. With her victim slowly choking on their blood, she raises her right leg above the spear and then savagely slams her foot down on the spear's shaft, slashing its head down through her target's chest and killing them, with their body spinning to the floor below.

'''''(High Profile, Back)'''''

The Brigand runs up behind her target and takes out her spear, using it to stab them in the upper back. As her target keels over, she leaps into the air, pole vaulting over her victim with her weapon and causing them to bend over further. Cruelly, she twists her spear free of their flesh as she flies over their right shoulder, with the force of her vault sending her target to the floor, dying of blood loss.

'''''(Bench Kill)'''''

The Brigand grabs her seated target's foot and drags them off the bench, until their head rests against it. Before her victim can do anything to defend themselves, the Brigand forcefully kicks them in the face, violently sending their head backwards and breaking her target's neck on the bench behind them.

'''''(Aerial Kill)'''''

The Brigand leaps from above a rooftop and withdraws her spear in mid-air, landing on top of her hapless target. Using gravity to aid her, the Brigand takes her weapon and jams it into her victim's chest, piercing their heart and killing them instantly. Pulling her spear loose, she stores it away and leaves her target dead on the floor.

==Taunts==
*''"You are no threat!"''
*''"Try harder."''
*''"Is that all?"''
*''"Safe travels."''
*''"Boom!"''

*Extra 2: Cool Grey

Well, it seems a little bit unfair to call it a podcast for the community, when Ubisoft are the ones to pick who comes onto the show. And also, if UbiDiiLite is supposed to be a Community Developer as well as UbiGabe, it seems a little stupid to include 2, when his slot could be better filled with a developer like, say, Darby, Aymar or Andreane Meunier. It's hardly like he even does his job anyway, when he decides to ignore the forums for Facebook and Twitter and other social media sites, where he's only going to get countless amounts of whiners and ass-kissers anyway. He sounds like he'd be better off in Marketing by what he appears to do.

If that is the case, why is it that UbiGabe, Rainie and Shenmue have been on multiple podcasts? I'm pretty sure that if you're cycling through guests, they don't need to pop up so much. And really? You have many criticisms? If that was really true, they must have been minor, because I doubt they must have done much.

Well, when the previous games have been reaching around the 9 range, I'd say a drop down to 7.5, while not being bad, is an indicator of decreasing quality. I hope AC3 goes against this, and the more than 2 year timescale they're going to implement after it proves to do the same.

And if you aren't defending Ubisoft, then you should air your criticisms a lot more frequently than you do now. An example being your podcast with develops. I swear, the amount of times during them that you say "Oh yeah, I really liked that feature" was pretty much the whole of the videos. Only once or twice have you ever mentioned a negative part of the game, and the way you do makes them sound so minor. It only ever seems that you're on them to feed praise to them. I recall the one time that Loomer was on there, and he mentioned a proper problem and instantaneously, it was as if everyone actually noticed it and gave feedback. And yet, after that, he was replaced by Subject 17, who no doubt says the same as you regularly do.

And yet, despite its story being nominated for awards, most reviewers give it around 7.5 out of 10 (even Metacritic's users give it 7.4), and describe it along the lines of "not recommended, buy only if you're interested in the series' progression". Also Esco, I've seemed to observe that despite you "stating facts", you never say a bad word about Ubisoft and always come to their defence, even when you disagree about their methods, i.e. your video response to the Boycott thread on the Ubisoft forums in which you state that disagreed with the DLC's price and that you wouldn't be buying it. Also, when you cut off the end of your posts with a short sarcastic response, it does not give you much of a positive light or much respect. That is all. (See, I just did it back.)

==About me==

Hello there, I am known on this wiki as Slate, although my real name is Thomas. I also go under the pseudonym Saracchio on the Xbox and the Ubisoft Forums, though I only add people to my friends list if I know who they are. I am currently studying Games Development at college and I'm looking forward to making videos on Youtube if I can work out how to use my HD PVR effectively, though for the time being, I can blame the editing software. :P

I also happen to be a member of the Happy Turrets, with the title "8-Bit Turret".

==My favorite pages==

I like to edit the multiplayer section of the Wiki, including the characters linked to the Animi avatars. One thing I would like to say is that I'm probably going to be one of the people who checks over them, so I will edit out details if they're wrong, along with re-wording the character's animations.

I also like to look over the Wiki Activity, and I check them for grammar mistakes and reverting vandalism if I get there first.

==Description==
[[Yusuf Tazim]] is informed about a [[Byzantines|Byzantine]] attack against the city's [[Assassin Dens|Assassin den]]. [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]] agrees to help Yusuf.
==Dialogue==
Ezio and Yusuf make their way to the rooftops.
*'''Yusuf:''' ''When he tires of running, an [[Assassins|Assassin]] must take to the air. Watch.''
Yusuf uses his hookblade to slide across a [[Ziplines|zipline]] and Ezio follows him. After reaching the opposite rooftop,Yusuf spots two [[Byzantines|Templar scouts]].
*'''Yusuf:''' ''A [[Templars|Templar]] scout. Another one there. Watch this.''
Yusuf assassinates one of the scouts. He tries to lure the second scout for Ezio to kill.
*'''Yusuf:''' ''Assassin! Help!''
Ezio follows him along the zipline and assassinates the guard inspecting the dead scout.
*'''Yusuf:''' ''Time to part company. I'll head to the [[Grand Bazaar|Bazaar]], you stay here. Do you see that tower?''
*'''Ezio:''' ''Sì.'' (Yes.) ''The Galata den?''
*'''Yusuf:''' ''Evet.'' (Yes.) ''I can't be in two places at once... but with you here, I don't have to be. Haydi rastgele.'' (Good luck.)
==Outcome==
Ezio Auditore is escorted to the Galata den and is requested to defend it while Yusuf attends to the other den in the [[Imperial District]].

==Trivia==
* To achieve full [[Synchronization]], Ezio must perform a [[Ziplines|zipline]] assassination.

==Apprentice Assignment - Ranks==

The '''Ranks''' system is a heirarchy constructed within the Assassin Order, in order to rate an [[Apprentices|Apprentice]]'s experience and progress throughout it. Ranks play a key role in determining a recruit's potential success on their missions, in turn gaining them the experience that they would need to excel in their apprenticeships. Along with newer ranks, more equipment is awarded to recruits once they reach the milestone of the level above them, providing them with more defensive or lethal prowess.

For an unskilled Assassin, there is the risk for them to be lost on their mission should it prove too difficult to complete, for which another Apprentice may have to be recruited once more.

Also, breaking the tenets of the [[The Creed|Creed]] may result in the loss of ranks, which was demonstrated by the Assassin [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]], whose initial disregard for the ways of the Assassin Order had his rank stripped down to that of a novice.

==''Assassin's Creed''==
===Rank Ten (Start of Game)===
{{Main|Master Assassin}} {C}Throughout Memory Block 1 at the beginning of the game, Altaïr is at the highest rank in the Order, rank Ten. All the abilities, equipment, and weapons that will be available to him during the game are available at the very beginning; in addition, his base [[Synchronization]] is maximized.

===Rank Two===
After Altaïr exposes the [[Masun|Traitor]] to [[Al Mualim]], he is promoted to Rank Two. He is then given the sword that Al Mualim himself had just used to slay the Traitor, as well as the [[Hidden Blade]]. This sword is much less ornate and powerful than his original sword, but Altaïr is grateful nonetheless, as he will need both these weapons in order to slay [[Tamir]].

When Altaïr returns to Masyaf holding a [[feather]] stained with [[Tamir]]'s blood, he is again promoted by Al Mualim, to Rank Three. His [[short blade]] is returned to him (albeit reduced in quality), as well as his Counter Kills ability. From this point on, all successful Assassinations (except for that of [[Robert de Sable]]) will earn Altaïr promotions.

He is presented the Assassin's Boots by Al Mualim, allowing him to perform Dodges. In addition, they enable him to regain his balance when thrown in combat, meaning that he will no longer fall flat, instead rolling and immediately standing up. If you kill Abu'l, you can recieve the Level 2 blade.

After Altaïr's eighth assassination, be it that of [[Sibrand]] or [[Jubair al Hakim]], he is promoted. Altaïr is once more at the top of the Assassins' Order, Rank Ten. His [[Sword|longsword]] is upgraded again, to a very ornate gold-hilted sword that is more powerful than any of the previous ones. While this sword is not his personal one, the shape of the blade and color of the hilt indicate high status. It is believed that after the events of ''Assassin's Creed'', he returns to using the Rank Nine blade: the [[Sword of Altaïr]]. In addition, he receives a second Knife Belt, increasing his capacity of [[throwing knives]] to 15.

'''Alexandria''' was one of [[wikipedia:Egypt|Egypt]]'s largest cities, founded c. 331 BC by [[Alexander the Great]].

In 30 BC, the Egyptian queen [[Cleopatra]] was killed here by the [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Amunet]] with an asp.<ref name="AC2">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref>

During the 1240s, the widow of the Assassin [[Sef Ibn-La'Ahad]] moved to the city with their children, after having spent some time in exile in [[Alamut]].<ref name="ACTSC">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Secret Crusade]]''</ref>

The [[Templars|Templar], [[Odai Dunqas]], also relocated to the city some time around 1505, after being driven away from his home by his family.

'''The Wounded Eagle''' is a memory in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''.

==Description==
During a carriage race against [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze|Ezio Auditore]], the [[Templar]] Captain [[Leandros]] calls his [[guards]] for help, after passing by the [[Assassins|Assassin]], who manage to stop Ezio by throwing a [[Bombs|bomb]] under the wheels of his cart. As Ezio's carriage is hurled from the cliffside, he falls into a canyon, only managing to survive by using a rocky outcrop to slow his descent next to the splintered remains of his carriage.

After seeing that Ezio survived the fall, although wounded, Leandros orders his guards to kill him. Managing to survive the battle in his weakened state, Ezio infiltrates the Templar stronghold and makes his way to a tower, where he finally kills Leandros.

==Dialogue==
[[File:The Wounded Eagle 2.png|210px|thumb|right|Ezio, after being sent into the canyon by the thrown bomb.]]
In the race between the two, Leandros rushes through the canyon as Ezio begins to catch up, gaining speed. However, he manages to ram into Ezio's carriage and almost forces him off of the cliff, slowing the Assassin down enough to speed past him. Soon, Leandros reaches his destination, where he notices a few of his guards.
*'''Leandros:''' (to the guards) ''Stop him!''
One of Leandros' guards hurls a bomb towards Ezio's carriage, which falls underneath his cart and explodes, sending him along with the carriage into the valley below.
:Leandros approaches the guards.
*'''Leandros:''' ''Do not take your eyes off this road for a moment. Do you understand me?'' ''Nothing gets through!''
:Ezio manages to climb back onto the road, which one of the guards notices.
*'''Guard:''' ''Leandros!'' (points at Ezio) ''Turn!''
:Leandros turns around, spotting Ezio.
*'''Leandros:''' ''Well, well. Look what crawled out of its hole to die!''
:Turning around to his guards, Leandros gives them an order, before signalling two guards to follow him.
*'''Leandros:''' ''He's at death's door. Finish him off!''
*'''Leandros:''' ''Bring me his head, or throw yourselves into the canyon!''

As he walks away, the remaining guards approach Ezio, considering him as an easy target. Preparing himself for a fight, despite his injury to his abdomen, the guards prove no match to the Assassin as Ezio dispatches them and proceeds towards the village that Leandros had entered. As he approaches the village, he notices that it is heavily guarded. Sneaking up to the first guard near the waterwheel, Ezio assassinates him from behind, before continuing onwards and climbing onto the spinning waterwheel to reach the top of the fortress wall.
[[File:The Wounded Eagle 6.png|210px|thumb|right|Ezio tracking Leandros.]]
*'''Ezio:''' ''This used to be so easy''.

Once he reaches the top, Ezio notices another guard and assassinates him from behind, before using his [[Eagle Vision|eagle sense]] to trace Leandros' path, observing that the way is blocked by more guards. Deciding to create a trap to clear his way, Ezio makes his way over to a guard standing next a carriage, before using his Hidden Blade to kill him, once the patrolling guards had passed. From there, Ezio sets up a trip-wire bomb next to his body.

After noticing the guard's corpse, the patrolling guards approach the body, where, unbeknownst to them, they trigger the bomb's wire and are killed by its explosion. With the way now clear, Ezio follows the path Leandros had taken earlier.

Tracing Leandros' footsteps, Ezio notices two guards further along his path. After concluding that the best course of action would be to avoid them, Ezio uses one of his diversion bombs to create a small blast in an alleyway nearby, attracting the guards' attention so that he can slip by undetected.

*'''Guard 1:''' ''Smokes like these make me nervous!'' ''Keep your eyes open.''
[[File:The_Wounded_Eagle_10.png|thumb|210px|right|Leandros taunting Ezio.]]
*'''Guard 2:''' ''Whoever did this...''
After managing to evade further attention from any guards on his way, by using a caltrop bomb to stop a guard from chasing after him, Ezio approaches the village's square and notices Leandros on one of the roofs.
*'''Leandros:''' ''Could it be that you are every bit as deadly as the legends say? Or am I in charge of an army of drunks swinging sticks?!'' ''Right this way Ezio. Nowhere left to run now!''
:Ezio notices a few guards running towards him.
*'''Ezio:''' ''Not for me, and not for you!''
:With a strike of his sword he closes the gate behind him, barring the guards outside.
*'''Leandros:''' ''Kill that dog! Cut him down!''
As the guards close in, Ezio uses another variation of his bombs to dispatch them, allowing him to take down multiple guards in one with an impact bomb. As the pain of his injury reduces after Ezio tends to his wounds at a medicine cart, he takes the quick way across the rooftops to reach his target. While guards with firearms shoot at him, Ezio manages to dodge them and starts to climb the tower where Leandros had taken refuge. Seeing Ezio approach, Leandros throws one of his guards off of the tower, intending to slow Ezio down.
*'''Leandros:''' ''Do your worst, malakas!'' (wanker!)
:As he dodges the guard, who breaks through a wooden platform, Ezio climbs higher.
[[File:Leandros death.png|210px|thumb|right|Leandros' final moments.]]
*'''Leandros:''' ''Face me.''
:Ezio reaches the top of the tower as Leandros back away from him.
*'''Leandros:''' ''What does it take to kill you, eh?''
*'''Ezio:''' ''Don't you ever stop howling?''
With Leandros cornered, Ezio runs his hidden blade into his body.
*'''Ezio:''' ''Requiescat in pace, bastardo.'' (Rest in peace, bastard.)
As Leandros falls, one of the [[Seals of Altaïr|seals]] fall out of his hand.

==Outcome==
Ezio succeeds in killing the captain of the Byzantine guard, Leandros, and retrieving one of the five seals left behind by [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]].

==Trivia==
*To achieve full [[synchronization]], the player must not kill anyone but Leandros.

{{Quote|The estranged cousin of a Sultan, Odai Dunqas embraces the Templar ideology of seeking peace through order and stability.|[[Ubisoft]] description.}}
The '''Guardian''' (real name: [[Odai Dunqas]]) is a multiplayer character for the upcoming game ''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''.

He was an estranged cousin of a distant Sultan in East Africa, who happened to be the first of the Sennar Sultanate. The Guardian also fervently believes in the [[Templars|Templar]] ideology: Peace through order and stability. His main weapon is a lance.

==Unique Moves==
'''''(Low Profile, Front)'''''

'''''(Low Profile, Back)'''''

'''''Damning Judgement (High Profile, Front)'''''

The Guardian kicks one of his target's feet out from underneath them, sending then kneeling forward on one leg, before forcefully planting his spear into their back, piercing their heart from behind. He then roughly removes his lance, pulling his victim upward slightly and sending their body slumping to the floor.

'''''Disposing Threats (High Profile, Back)'''''

The Guardian runs towards his target from behind with his lance in hand, before propelling himself into the air and bringing the tip of the lance down with a powerful swing, impaling his victim in the back and through the chest. He then twists his lance slightly to dislodge it, before forcefully removing his weapon and sending his target's body falling forward to the floor.

'''''(Bench Kill)'''''

The Guardian grabs his seated target's foot and drags them off the bench, until their head rests against it. Before his victim can do anything to defend themselves, the Guardian forcefully kicks them in the face, violently sending their head backwards and breaking his target's neck on the bench behind them.

'''''(Aerial Kill) '''''

The Guardian jumps from above a rooftop, landing on top of his target, before taking out his lance from his back. Using the momentum of his fall, he forces his lance into his victim's skull, piercing it in the process. Standing up, he removes his lance from the head of his target's dead body before storing it back at his back.

{{Quote|Born and raised in a world of poverty, the Thief was taught how to steal, run and climb to survive, alongside her brother. Always together, acting as a team, they once split a pair of scissors to make a weapon, swearing to protect each other. It's been 10 years now... and she's never forgotten the day she broke her promise.|Ubisoft description}}

The '''Thief''' (real name: '''Faustina Collari''') is an unlockable multiplayer character in ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'', available after the player has reached level 25. Her weapon is a [[Multiplayer Weapons#Scissor Blade|Scissor Blade]]. [[File:The_Thief.png|thumb]]

==Unique Moves==

'''''Ankle Grabber (Low Profile, Back)'''''
:The Thief walks up behind her target and drops her weapon next to their foot, before reaching down to retrieve it. After tugging on her victim's ankle slightly to attract their attention, she quickly stands up as they turn around, before using the momentum to stab her target in the head with her scissor blade.

'''''Heart Attack (Low Profile, Front)'''''
:The Thief approaches her target from the front and makes a deadly blow to her target's heart. Getting her blade stuck in their torso, she wiggles the blade from side to side and yanks her weapon out her target's chest, before pushing her victim away and stashing her scissor blade up her sleeve.

'''''Joy Ride (High Profile, Back)'''''
:The Thief runs upto her target and jumps onto their back. As she holds onto them while they stagger forward, giving herself a piggyback ride, she stabs her target in their chest twice. She then hops off their body as it falls to the ground and conceals her weapon.

'''''Go For the Eyes! (High Profile, Front)'''''
:The Thief engages her target by pushing them forward, causing them to stagger back slightly. As her victim attempts to walk forward and retaliate, the Thief wins the scuffle by seizing the opportunity to stab her target in the eye with her scissor blade, subsequently piercing their brain and sending them slumping to the floor.

'''''Pickpocket's Revenge (Bench Kill) '''''
:The Thief approaches her seated target and crouches down slightly, in order to get a better look and identify them. Confirming her suspicions, the Thief removes her scissor blade from inside her sleeve, before her victim can react, and plunges her weapon in the side of their head, killing them instantly. With her target freshly dispatched, she pulls their dead body from their seat and throws them to the floor.

'''''Tag! You're It! (Aerial Kill) '''''
:The Thief leaps from a rooftop, scissor blade in hand, before landing on her target. She then stabs downwards into her victim's neck, piercing the jugular and causing them to bleed to death.

==Customization==
Colors:
*Basic: Dark Blue
*Extra 1: Gray
*Extra 2: Brown
*Extra 3: Faded Red
Gear:
*Advanced: Added poofed upper sleeves.
*Superior: Extended blouse, added knee-high boots, added white stripe design to leggings.
*Elite: Added miniature cape and a round brim hat.

==Trivia==
*Faustina's Elite Gear is a polar opposite of the rags in her Basic Gear. The Elite Gear is neat and exquisite, and her Basic Gear is ragged and homely. Each of her different gears shifts steadily from rags to riches throughout the four options.
*Faustina is the only multiplayer character to not appear in either the ''Brotherhood'' single player, or ''[[Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy]]''.

Very little information is known about La Volpe, and any that is, seems mythical.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

==Biography==
===Myths===
There are multiple myths regarding La Volpe, and his abilities as a thief. He was said to have robbed the Papal carriage without any guards noticing him, including the Pope who was obviously sitting inside.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

In 1467, during a night in Florence, he was seen on the rooftops of the [[Palazzo della Signoria]], the [[Palazzo Medici]], and the [[Basilica di Santa Croce]] all at the same time. It was said that he was an immortal and could see through buildings.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" /> His eyes were also said to be purple.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'' (French and Italian versions)</ref>

===Helping Ezio Auditore===
In 1477, La Volpe was informed that [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]], the son of the late Assassin [[Giovanni Auditore da Firenze]], was returning to Florence to assassinate the [[Templars|Templar]] [[Francesco de' Pazzi]]. Ezio was told by his friend, [[Leonardo da Vinci]], that La Volpe would be able to assist him with this matter. Upon hearing this, Ezio searched for La Volpe in the [[Mercato Vecchio]].<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

Whilst looking for the legendary rogue, a thief quickly pickpocketed Ezio and fled. Ezio was able to catch up with him, but as he demanded his money back, La Volpe appeared and reimbursed him, saying that he was willing to aid him if the Assassin could keep up with his free-running skills. La Volpe then led Ezio to the [[Santa Maria Novella]], where the [[Pazzi Conspiracy|Pazzi conspirators]] were to convene later that day.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

[[File:FH_8.png|thumb|250px|right|Ezio requesting La Volpe's aid.]]
La Volpe waited for Ezio near to the sewers, from where he would later emerge after eavesdropping on the [[Templars|Templar]] meeting. Ezio informed him that they were planning to kill the [[House of Medici|Medici]] during High Mass, in order to claim Florence for themselves, and install their politicians in charge. La Volpe replied that it would be disastrous if [[Lorenzo de' Medici]] were to be killed, as he was a powerful ally of the Assassins, though Ezio assured him that he would not allow him to die.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

===Acquisition of the Apple of Eden===
In 1488, La Volpe and the other Assassins from Florence met in [[Venice]] to acquire the [[Sixth Apple|Apple of Eden]] from [[Rodrigo Borgia]], the [[Grand Master of the Templar Order]]. When they arrived at Rodrigo's location, they saw him fighting with Ezio Auditore, and promptly intervened to help Ezio defeat him and his men. Eventually, Rodrigo fled, and left the Apple behind with the Assassins. After answering many queries from Ezio, they proceeded to induct him into the Assassin Order, with each member (including La Volpe) performing a Leap of Faith afterwards.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

===Bonfire of the Vanities===
In 1494, Florence was taken over by [[Girolamo Savonarola]], who had stolen the Apple from Ezio after an [[Battle of Forlì|incident in Forlì]].<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

[[File:BFV.png|thumb|250px|right|La Volpe and Paola rally the citizens against Savonarola.]]
In 1497, La Volpe and [[Paola]], a fellow Assassin, and the leader of the Florentine [[courtesans]], were contacted by [[Niccolò Machiavelli]] to help him liberate the citizens, after Ezio assassinated each of Girolamo Savonarola's lieutenants. After the lieutenants were eliminated, La Volpe, Paola, Machiavelli, and Ezio gathered in front of the [[Palazzo Pitti]] to see the angry mob stand up to Savonarola. Savonarola, however, tried to control the crowd with the Apple, but it was quickly knocked out of his hand by a knife thrown by Ezio.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

La Volpe and the others gathered once more to witness Savonarola's execution, though Ezio reconsidered, and decided that he should not have to suffer the pain and humiliation of being burned alive in front of a crowd of people. Thus he hurried towards the flames, and assassinated him before he began to burn. He then gave a speech, and, looking towards the other Assassins, approvingly spoke of how he been guided to his own path by ''"a few strangers."''<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

===Finding the Vault===
In 1499, La Volpe gathered with the same Assassins he had met with in Venice in the [[Villa Auditore]] in [[Monteriggioni]] to unveil the location of [[the Vault]]. Through the [[The Codex|Codex pages]], they discovered that the Vault was located in Rome, and that it was in fact the true reason that Rodrigo Borgia had become Pope, as he could obtain the [[The Staff|Staff of Eden]]. They then traveled to Rome, where they created a distraction for the Borgia forces, while Ezio infiltrated the [[Sistine Chapel]].<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />

===Liberating Rome===
[[File:Vlcsnap-2010-11-12-17h54m41s96.jpg|thumb|250px|La Volpe with [[Bartolomeo d'Alviano|Bartolomeo]] and [[Claudia Auditore|Claudia]] waiting for Ezio within the [[Assassins Guild]].]]
After the Assassins returned from Rome, Monteriggioni was [[Siege of Monteriggioni|besieged]] by the [[House of Borgia|Borgia]], and as a result, the Assassin [[Mario Auditore]] was killed by [[Cesare Borgia]]. After this, some members of the Assassin Order, including La Volpe, traveled to Rome to dispose of the Borgia's influence there. When Ezio found him in Rome, he was the leader of a Thieves Guild, just as he had been in Florence, but unlike in Florence, he refused to cooperate with Niccolò Machiavelli, calling him a traitor to the Assassin cause.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref>

La Volpe believed that Machiavelli had betrayed them and had sided with the Borgia, since Machiavelli had left Monteriggioni the night before the siege, as well as later stating that he suspected him of being behind an attack on the Roman Thieves Guild. However, Ezio later found the real traitor at the [[Colosseo|Colosseum]], who happened to be a thief that stayed back at the [[Siege of Monteriggioni]], and quickly rushed off to keep La Volpe from killing Machiavelli. Ezio arrived just in time to inform him of the situation, and when La Volpe realized he was mistaken, he immediately concealed his weapon and grew warmer to an oblivious Machiavelli, greeting him as a friend and ally.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood" />

La Volpe was also present during [[Claudia Auditore da Firenze|Claudia Auditore]]'s induction into the Assassin Order, and the battle against Cesare's remaining followers before his arrest.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood" />

==Trivia==
*The ''"la"'' in La Volpe's name refers only to the fact that ''"volpe,"'' the Italian word for fox, is a feminine noun. Contrary to popular belief, this does not mean "vixen".
*As there is no record of his actual name, the database files simply note that "La Volpe" is his pseudonym, one he gained since it was said that only a fox could match his cunning.

===Equipment===
*La Volpe is shown using a [[Short Blade|butcher's knife]] as his primary weapon during the fight against Rodrigo.
*In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Renaissance]]'', La Volpe uses a [[Crossbow]] with expert proficiency in both long ranged and melee combat.
*Like all other supporting Assassins in the game, La Volpe does not wear the trademark [[Hidden Blade]].
*La Volpe is the only other Assassin besides Ezio who has a hood on, one of the most iconic features of the [[Assassins]]. The hood he wears, however, is neither white nor cut in the shape of an eagle's beak.

===Skill===
*When Ezio travels with him to the Santa Maria Novella, Ezio falls behind and runs out of breath, while La Volpe breathes normally. This seems to suggest that even though he is older, he has far more stamina.
*La Volpe has accomplished a feat that Ezio cannot, being seen atop the Palazzo Medici (one of the few rooftops in the game that cannot be reached).

===Others===
*The [[Prowler]] shares certain characteristics with La Volpe; such as the style of his cloak and hood, and the format of his name, "Il Lupo" or "the Wolf."
*In ''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'', La Volpe does not seem to have aged at all, and in fact, actually seems to have fewer wrinkles on his face than in ''Assassin's Creed II''.
*A glitch occurs in the PS3 version of ''Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood'', during ''"The Fighter, the Lover and the Thief"'' Sequence, wherein La Volpe can be seen in two places at once. At the end of the thief memory, after Ezio rescues Claudio, La Volpe can be found sitting on a bench next to [[La Volpe Addormentato]]; however, he can also be located on the roof of the building from which he and Ezio spied on Machiavelli at the beginning of the memory.
