[[Altaïr]]'s '''personal sword '''that he uses throughout ''[[Assassin's Creed]]'', ''[[Assassin's Creed: Altaïr's Chronicles]]'', and ''[[Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines]]''. The blade's hilt is shaped like an eagle's wings, while the blade itself is both long and agile, making it a light and deadly weapon. In the first game however, his last sword is a gold Syrian sword. This same sword is apparently the weapon of choice for the guards at [[Masyaf]]. It is also available as a weapon in [[Assassin's Creed II]]. It is unknown where the sword originated from, but it is rumored to come from Syria. It is said to have been wrought of pure steel and ivory from the goddess Isis herself.

=== Assassin's Creed: Altaïr's Chronicles ===
Altaïr was equipped with his sword even before the events of ''Assassin's Creed'', using it to wipe out platoons of [[Templars]].

== Assassin's Creed ==

Altaïr starts the game with his sword, which he is very skilled with until [[Al Mualim]] demotes him to [[Novice]] for breaking all three tenets of [[The Creed]]. His demotion decreases his skill greatly. During his progression back to his former rank, [[Master Assassin]], Altaïr eventually regains his mastery with [[Longsword]]s.

=== Assassin's Creed: Bloodlines ===
Altaïr still possesses his sword during the events after ''Assassin's Creed''. In fact, the sword(s) can be found hung in Kantara Castel Greathall ('The Bull' stage), as ornaments.

=== Assassin's Creed 2 ===
[[Altaïr]]'s sword appears in the [[Monteriggioni]] [[Blacksmiths]]. It is available for purchase for 45,000 florins after DNA Sequence 8. it is unknown as to why the sword is available from the blacksmiths because the sword (being Altair's personal weapon) should have rightfully been made available once his armour was unlocked. however it is not impossible that the sword could have been lost when the codex was lost, found and then sold off to the blacksmiths. The sword in the game is shorter compared to the other longswords [[Ezio]] can use; the entire sword being only a little longer than the length of his arm. However, Altaïr's sword is the strongest weapon available. Strange is that Altaïr's sword is the best in the game because in Assassins Creed the Syrian sword was the best Longsword; however, it is not impossible that Altaïr modified the sword. It is interesting to note, that in later memory sequences of the game, if and when the player has the sword equipped, it is quite easily knocked away from Ezio by [[Brute]] guards.

=== Sword Stats ===
The Stats of the sword easily show why it is the most powerful melee weapon in the game, as all 3 stats are maxed out.

'''Adolf Hitler''' (April 20 1889-approx.30 April 1945) was the leader of the Nazi faction during World War II.

He was a member of the [[Knights Templar]], and was given a [[Piece of Eden]] (PE4) by [[Henry Ford]], to achieve a take over of Germany and to start a large scale war in Europe. After rising to power through democratic election (Most likely won through the effects of the PE4), Hitler turned Germany into a dictatorship for himself. His actions where virtually unopposed and he remained highly popular, with fanatical soldiers accepting his orders right up to the end of his life. He built up an army and lead his new German state (the Third Reich) into World War II.

What made Hitler so popular among the german people during his rise was his brilliant ability to speech in public. Although his speeches were based on plenty of unbelievable theories like the superiority of the germanic race, they still litterally mesmerised the people that heard them. The Apple had the ability of controlling human minds, so Hitler probably made use of it so he could control the minds of the people listening to him.

Forty-two assassination attempts were plotted against Hitler during his reign by German generals, citizens and others, but he survived them all. Most believe that it is only sheer luck that saved him, but it is probable that Hitler used his Piece of Eden to escape from death. For example, the first time Hitler was plotted to be assassinated, a bomb was supposed to kill him while he was doing a speech. Extraordinarily, Hitler shortened his speech so he survived. He may have used his Piece of Eden to ''see'' the future and know what was planned.

The war ended in Allied victory, and Hitler was to have escaped by faking his own suicide in the ''Führerbunker'', killing his body double to do so. However, he never met with his fellow Templars. It is speculated that the [[Piece of Eden|POE]] was taken by his assassin.

==Trivia==
*As both Hitler, [[Joseph Stalin]] and possibly Winston Churchill (C mentioned in Subject 16's files) are Templars, World War II must have had a greater goal than what it appears like.

*Another idea is that Stalin wanted the Piece of Eden for himself and attacked Hitler for it, although this is a bit unlikely.
*It's possible that the Third Reich symbol is derived from the "Mark of Cain" as seen on Hitler's jacket in the picture to the right. This symbol was common among the Nazis in World War II.
*The Holy Lance or the Spear of Destiny that Hitler believed to pierce Jesus in the side, could be a Piece of Eden.
