'''Jesus of Nazareth''' (7–2 BC/BCE — 30–36 AD/CE),<ref name="Wikipedia">[[wikipedia:Jesus|''Wikipedia'': Jesus]]</ref> also known as Jesus Christ, '''Gesù Cristo''' or '''Yeshua ben Yosef''', is the central figure of Christianity, which views him as the Messiah foretold in the Old Testament believing him to be the Son of God who was raised from the dead and ascended into Heaven. His prominent work was the performing of grand miracles, mostly involving the body, and sacrificing himself to cleanse the sins of all humanity.

Jesus' miracles were granted from the powers of [[the Shroud]], a [[Pieces of Eden|Piece of Eden]]. The [[Templars]] had Christ crucified, with the sole purpose to gain the Shroud. Somehow, the disciples stole the Shroud back and possibly used it to resurrect their Messiah.<ref>''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref>

==Trivia==
*In recent developments, official [[Vatican]] researchers had uncovered evidence that the Shroud of Turin had been kept and venerated by the Templars since the 1204 sack of [[Constantinople]].
*Throughout the series, none of the charafters can agree on where Jesus stood in the grand scheme of things. In [[Assassin's Creed]], [[Al Mualim]] claims he was a mortal man skilled in the art of deception, but in [[Assassin's Creed II]], [[Altair]], in his [[Codex]], suggests he was one of the [[Ones Who Came Before]], and [[Subject 16]] claimes, in one of his [[glyphs]], that Jesus was an [[Assassin]]. 16's version seems most likely, as it is known that he spent a long period of time at [[Abstergo]], working throughout multiple era's.
