'''Assassination targets''' were individuals that the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]] – and in select instances, the [[Templars|Templar Order]] – deemed worthy of elimination. Over the [[Timeline|centuries]], the Assassins killed many individuals they believed to be corrupt and a danger to humanity, particularly Templars and their associates.

Below is a chronological list of notable victims, by faction and assassin responsible.

==Elimination by Assassins==
===Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad===
Around the time of the [[Third Crusade]], [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]] assassinated various individuals during his quest to find [[Adha|the Chalice]] in 1190. He later eliminated [[Hunt for the Nine|nine tyrannical public figures]] in an effort to restore [[Master Assassin|his lost rank]] and regain honor within the Assassin Order.

Following his ascension to [[Mentor]] of the Order, he carried out several assassinations to aid the [[Cypriot Resistance]] in 1192, and continued to eliminate notable targets throughout his life.
