The '''Egyptian Assassins''' were the Brotherhood of [[Assassins]] located in [[Egypt]], one of the few Brotherhoods to have existed for over a thousand years.

==History==
===Ancient Egypt===
The Egyptian branch of Assassin Brotherhood seems to exist at least since the 2nd century before the common era, as the [[Rosetta Stone]] contains information about the Assassins.<ref name="ACU">''[[Assassin's Creed: Unity]]''</ref>

On 12 August 30 BCE, the Egyptian Assassin [[Amunet]] infiltrated the Egyptian Queen [[Cleopatra]]'s palace, and killed her with a venomous [[Snakes|asp]].<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref>

===Islamic Era===
In 1257, [[Darim Ibn-La'Ahad]], son of the [[Mentor]] of the [[Levantine Assassins]], [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]], moved to [[Alexandria]] after the Levantine Assassins were disbanded.<ref name="ACR">''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''</ref> Darim joined the widow of his [[Sef Ibn-La'Ahad|deceased brother]] and her children,<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: The Secret Crusade]]''</ref> which led to their bloodline integrating into the Egyptian Assassins.<ref name="ACR" />

By 1511, the Egyptian Assassins were under the leadership of their Mentor [[Iskender]], a descendant of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad. He was captured to be executed that year, but was saved by [[Turkish Assassins|Ottoman Assassins]] sent from [[Constantinople]] by the Mentor of the [[Italian Assassins]], [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]].<ref name="ACR" />

By 1794, the Egyptian Assassins were led by an individual who was known as [[Al Mualim (1794)|Al Mualim]], who was based in [[Cairo]]. [[Arno Dorian]] sent one of his fellow [[French Assassins]] to the city with the [[Apples of Eden|Apple of Eden]] he had taken from the [[Head of Saint Denis]] to keep it safe.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed: Unity]] - [[Dead Kings]]''</ref>
