==Trivia==<br />
*The name Orelov is most likely based on the Russian surname, Orlov (Орлов), which means: ''"сын орла"'' (syn orla), or ''"son of oryol"'' and ''"oryol"'' means ''"eagle"''. It could also come from Orel, which is Czech, Slovenian and Bulgarian for ''eagle''. In continuation of the series tradition of referencing the main protagonist's name of each of time period to that of the eagle in the Assassin's native language or some derivation from a language connected to the Assassin's heritage.<br />
