'''Haras''' (unknown - 1189) was an [[Assassins|Assassin]] [[Apprentices|apprentice]] who, after becoming dissatisfied with his slow progression through the Assassin [[ranks]], defected to the [[Templars|Templar Order]].

In 2012, his [[Genetic memory|genetic memories]] were used as an Animi Avatar by the Templar company [[Abstergo Industries]], for the training of their [[Animus]] recruits, under the title of the [[Crusader]].

==Biography==
During 1189, Haras betrayed the Assassin Order, and led an army of Templars to attack the Assassins' fortress of [[Masyaf]], of which many Assassins were killed in the defense and [[Rashid ad-Din Sinan|Al Mualim]] was captured. Arriving back at Masyaf on a horse, the Assassin [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]] fought his way to the Assassin fortress and confronted Haras, who then threatened Altaïr with the death of Al Mualim.

Promptly retreating to the then Templar-occupied fortress, Haras proceeded to kill off the other Assassin hostages with his crossbow. Altaïr, who was locked outside the fortress by a portcullis gate, promptly scaled its walls and assassinated Haras.

As he died, Haras continued to defy the Assassins, claiming that the Templars knew the truth about [[Humans|humanity]] and that the Assassins' [[The Creed|Creed]] was wrong. Soon after, Haras passed away, after affirming to Altaïr of his beliefs.

==Personality and characteristics==
According to Altaïr's suspicions, Haras was a man who sought the easy route instead of rightfully earning his place. He also had a reputation for being chameleon-like in combat, and could adapt his personality to suit others in order to find out their secrets.

However, his ambitions could take over him at times, leading to him hastily taking the opportunity to join the forces of the [[Crusaders]], donning their uniform as he betrayed his fellow Assassin brothers.Just clarrifing sleepviper know need to get bitchy

*'''Altaïr:''' ''No, our creed is evidence to the contrary.''

*'''Haras:''' ''Perhaps I am not wise enough to understand, but I suspect the opposite; that I am too wise to believe such rubbish.''

{{Quote|He is a sincere man. But this Templar fantasy of his is dangerous. It flies in the face of reality.|Suleiman I.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}

'''Ahmet''' (1465 – 1512) was an [[Ottoman Empire|Ottoman]] ''Şehzade'' (Prince), and the oldest son of [[Bayezid II]]. He was also the elder brother of [[Selim I]] and [[Korkut]], and uncle of [[Suleiman I]].

Tired of the feuds that divided men, Ahmet joined the [[Templars|Templar Order]], eventually becoming the leader of the [[Byzantine Empire|Byzantine]] Templars, while simultaneously having been chosen as the heir of his father, the Sultan of the Ottoman Empire.

Believing that he was guaranteed control over the Ottoman Empire, Ahmet started an expedition to find the [[Masyaf Keys]] needed to open the [[library of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad|hidden library]] in [[Masyaf]]. Here, he believed he would find the location of the "[[Grand Temple]]", and intended to use the power hidden there to further the Templar cause.

Eventually, Ahmet's efforts were thwarted by the combined efforts of the [[Turkish Assassins|Ottoman Assassins]] and their [[Italian Assassins|Italian Assassin]] ally, the [[Mentor]] [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]].

Ultimately, Ahmet's father chose Selim as his heir instead, and upon marching to [[Constantinople]], Selim met with Ahmet and swiftly killed him.

==Biography==
===Early life===
Born the eldest living son of the [[Ottoman Empire|Ottoman]] Sultan Bayezid II in 1465, Ahmet was selected as his father's heir at childhood. With Ahmet sharing his distaste for war and an affection for knowledge with his father, many believed him to be the most reasonable choice.<ref name="ACR">''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''</ref>

Ahmet was eventually assigned to govern the {{Wiki|Anatolian}} city of {{Wiki|Amasya}}, as was the tradition of all Ottoman princes in the Empire. As time progressed, he continued to impress, and seemed ever more likely to be a successful candidate for the crown prince, especially when the {{Wiki|Grand Vizier}} {{Wiki|Hadim Ali Pasha}} began to support him.

===Joining the Byzantine Templars===
{{Dialogue|Ezio|Why the Templars?|Ahmet|Because I am tired of all these pointless blood feuds that pit father against son, brother against brother. To achieve true peace, mankind must think and move as one body, with one master mind.|Ahmet discussing his reasons for following the Templar ideology.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}
Ahmet became a Templar after exchanging letters with his exiled uncle [[Cem]]. Their philosophy appealed to him as he tired of the divisions within mankind and agreed that all the people should be united under one ruler. Cem informed him of the existence of [[Niccolò Polo]]'s [[The Secret Crusade|journal]] detailing the [[Library of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]].<ref name="Recollection">''[[Assassin's Creed: Recollection]]''</ref>

In 1509, an {{Wiki|1509 Istanbul earthquake|earthquake struck Constantinople}}, at which point Bayezid had disappeared from Constantinople. In his absence, Byzantine Templars - remnants of the fallen [[Byzantine Empire]] - led by [[Manuel Palaiologos]] entered the city, and strived to revive their fallen empire.<ref name="ACR"/> Ahmet joined the Templars, though this act caused great internal conflict for him, as he was still an Ottoman prince, and acting for either the Ottomans or the Byzantines would mean turning his back on his other affiliation.<ref name="Encyclopedia">''[[Assassin's Creed Encyclopedia]]''</ref>

Ahmet, much younger and more charismatic than the elderly Manuel Palaiologos, slowly slipped into the position of leader of the Byzantine Templars, with Manuel becoming his second-in-command.<ref name="Encyclopedia" /> At the same time, Bayezid and Selim had engaged in a conflict, as Selim was making an effort to gain the Ottoman throne for himself.<ref name="ACR"/>

===Gaining power in the Empire===
{{Quote|I will open that library, and I will find the Grand Temple. And with the power that is hidden there, I will destroy the superstitions that keep men divided.|Ahmet about his plans to find the library.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}
In 1511, Ahmet initiated several plans to further his influence in the Ottoman Empire. One of these was to locate the "[[Grand Temple]]" of the [[First Civilization]], which Ahmet believed they could find by accessing the library of [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]] - the late Mentor of the [[Levantine Assassins]] - located in Masyaf, [[Syria]]. Ahmet entrusted Manuel Palaiologos with the Masyaf expedition, and the search for the [[Masyaf Keys|keys]] needed to open the library, while Ahmet himself focused his attention on matters in Constantinople.<ref name="ACR"/> The first key was found by Ahmet's confidante [[Hasan Pasha]] in the [[tunnels]] beneath [[Topkapı Palace]] unearthed by the earthquake.<ref name="Recollection"/>

[[File:Prince's banquet 11.png|thumb|250px|left|Ahmet at Suleiman's banquet]]
In the heart of the Ottoman Empire, Ahmet initiated a plot to have the Templars abduct Ahmet's own nephew, Suleiman, during a cultural exhibition. If this were to be successful, Ahmet would rescue him from the Byzantines, and be heralded a hero. Ahmet himself attended the celebration in [[Topkapı Palace]], while Templars disguised as guests were tasked with abducting the young ''Shehzadem'' Suleiman.<ref name="ACR"/>

However, to Ahmet's displeasure, the Templar infiltrators were killed by several Ottoman Assassins, who had entered the party disguised as [[Italy|Italian]] minstrels, on orders of their leader, [[Yusuf Tazim]]. Following the failed plot, Ahmet took advantage of the [[Janissaries]]' well-known distaste for him, and accused Janissary Captain [[Tarik Barleti]] of a conspiracy against him, since the Janissaries were tasked with the Prince's protection.<ref name="ACR"/>

[[File:Mixed tiding 5.png|thumb|250px|Ahmet being introduced to "Marcello" by Suleiman]]
Some time later, Tarik was murdered in the Janissary camp, and it was commonly believed that Ahmet was the one responsible for his death.<ref name="ACR"/>

Finding his nephew Suleiman in Topkapı Palace to inform him of the event, Ahmet noticed Suleiman was meeting with Ezio Auditore - introduced to Ahmet as "Marcello" by Suleiman - which led to Ahmet growing suspicious of the man, and of his interactions with his nephew.<ref name="ACR"/>

===Death===
{{Dialogue|Ahmet|Soldiers! Selim is not your master! You serve the Sultan! You carry out his command alone! Where is he? Where is our Sultan?!|Selim|He stands before you, brother. Father made his choice.|Ahmet and Selim shortly before Ahmet's death.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}
[[File:Escape 1.png|thumb|left|250px|Ahmet confronting Ezio in Cappadocia]]
In March 1512, Ahmet personally traveled to [[Derinkuyu|Cappadocia]], where Manuel Palaiologos was hiding and forming an army together with the renegade [[Shahkulu]]. Ahmet arrived shortly after Ezio had killed Manuel and taken the Masyaf key from him, giving him an opportunity to confront the Assassin.<ref name="ACR"/>

Revealing himself to be the leader of the Byzantine Templars, Ahmet threatened to capture Ezio's love interest [[Sofia Sartor]], after Ezio claimed to not know of the other Masyaf keys. Ahmet left his subordinates to take care of Ezio, while he returned to Constantinople to order Sofia's capture.<ref name="ACR"/>

The capture, which resulted in the death of the Ottoman Assassin leader Yusuf Tazim, infuriated the Assassins, and led them to an all-out assault on the arsenal within Constantinople, where Ahmet was temporarily hiding.<ref name="ACR"/>

Though many of his men were killed during the attack, Ahmet managed to salvage his own life by reminding Ezio that he still held Sofia. Offering to spare Sofia in exchange for the Masyaf keys, Ahmet arranged a meeting with Ezio near [[Galata Tower]].<ref name="ACR"/>

Ahmet met with Ezio on the rampart connected to Galata Tower soon afterwards, and after some mutual hostility, Ezio handed over the keys. Ahmet then directed Ezio to Sofia atop Galata Tower, but unbeknownst to the Assassin, the woman atop the Galata Tower was not Sofia, as Ahmet had ordered Sofia to be killed in a square not too far from the tower. Ahmet, finally having all keys in his possession, triumphantly hurried off to Masyaf.<ref name="ACR"/>

[[File:End road 11.png|thumb|250px|Ahmet being chased by Sofia and Ezio]]
As Ahmet and his entourage left Constantinople by several [[Horses|horse]]-drawn wagons, they were followed by Ezio and Sofia, who had been rescued from Ahmet's men. Leaving his soldiers to take care of the two, Ahmet rode ahead, and a chase ensued.<ref name="ACR"/>

Ezio was able to dispatch the other wagons, before Ahmet smashed Ezio's cart, causing Ezio to fall off. Ezio was able to catch himself by using a [[Parachutes|parachute]], holding onto a rope attached to the wagon as Sofia continued the pursuit of Ahmet.<ref name="ACR"/>

After several more unsuccessful attempts from the Templars to shake Ezio and Sofia, Ahmet obliterated Sofia's cart, thinking he had finally lost them. As Ahmet proceeded onwards, Ezio lunged at him from a nearby ledge, and knocked him from his seat.<ref name="ACR"/>

[[File:End road 22.png|left|thumb|250px|Ahmet is thrown off a cliff by Selim]]
This resulted in both men free-falling off a cliff, and the two engaged in melee combat in mid-air. As they neared the ground, however, Ezio deployed another parachute to break the fall, and Ahmet survived by clinging onto him during the descent.<ref name="ACR"/>

As they faced each other again on solid ground, and wondered what would happen next, Ahmet's brother Selim arrived, accompanied by the Sultan's army.<ref name="ACR"/>

Selim revealed that their father had abdicated the throne, and had chosen Selim as his heir. Selim proceeded to strangle Ahmet, before throwing him off a cliff to his death.<ref name="ACR"/>
{{-}}
==Personality and characteristics==
{{Quote|You are weak, Ahmet. Pensive in times of war and restless in times of peace. You lack passion for the traditions of the ghazi (holy warriors), yet you speak of fraternity in the company of infidels. You would make a decent philosopher, Ahmet, but you will be a poor Sultan.|Tarik, giving his opinion on Ahmet's character.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}
[[File:Shadows v 3.png|thumb|250px|Ahmet playing chess against his nephew]]
Ahmet, being a member of the most powerful family and rulers of Constantinople, was a proud and arrogant man. The fact that he had counted on his father's support of him becoming the next Sultan only made this worse, as he felt no doubt about his father's choice.<ref name="ACR"/>

Ahmet constantly paid attention to his relations with the public, as he realized the equal importance of their support. Therefore, he was easily upset by events as Tarik Barleti's death, which he regarded as an assault on his public image.<ref name="ACR"/>

However, a significant proportion of the citizens of Constantinople preferred Ahmet's brother, Selim, to become the Sultan. They argued that Ahmet was a weak man, who had difficulties with making important choices when it came to war, and who would become restless in times of peace.<ref name="ACR"/>

As leader of the Byzantine Templars, Ahmet was an intelligent and cunning man. Due to his age and charm, he was able to rule over men who would not normally accept another as their superior. Ahmet managed to set up a scheme to get his hands on the Masyaf keys, while simultaneously maintaining his good public image. Ahmet was a true templar deadicated to helping the world unlike others who only sought power and wealth.<ref name="ACR"/>

==Trivia==
*Ahmet is a Turkish variant of the Arabic name ''Ahmad'', meaning "highly praised."

Master Assassin

92.251.169.150:

{{Era|ACAC|AC|ACB|ACR|AC3|AC3L|AC4|TF|Assassins}}
[[File:AssassinLogo.png|180px|thumb|The Assassin insignia]]
The title of '''Master Assassin''' was one of the highest obtainable [[ranks]] within the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]], and those who held this title were presumed to have reached the peak of their training as an Assassin. The rank garnered a large amount of respect from other members within the Order and indicated individuals who possessed uncommon skill and talent, most often in the arts of stealth and assassination.

A Master Assassin was meant to embody [[the Creed]]: they never harmed an innocent, always hid in plain sight, and never compromised the Brotherhood.

==History==
In 1176, [[Umar Ibn-La'Ahad]] and his fellow Assassin [[Faheem Al-Sayf]] held the title of Master Assassin. However, Umar gave his life to spare the Brotherhood from a siege, in retribution for an assassination gone wrong.<ref name="ACTSC">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Secret Crusade]]''</ref>

In 1191, [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]] held the position, before being demoted to a [[novice]] following his failure to obtain the [[Apple of Eden 2|Apple of Eden]] beneath [[Solomon's Temple]], along with his arrogance and disregard of the tenets of the Creed. He eventually regained this title through [[Hunt for the Nine|several assassinations]] in support of the Order's interests, and held it during the assassinations of [[Robert de Sable]] and [[Rashid ad-Din Sinan]].<ref name="AC">''[[Assassin's Creed]]''</ref>

In 1499, [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] obtained the rank, before rising to be the [[Mentor]] of the [[Italian Assassins]], following the [[Liberation of Rome|liberation]] of [[Rome]] from the [[House of Borgia]]'s grasp.<ref name="ACB">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref> Also, during the 16th century, [[Yusuf Tazim]], the leader of the [[Turkish Assassins|Constantinople Assassins Guild]], alongside the famed Turkish navy admiral, cartographer, and [[Bombs|bomb]] specialist [[Piri Reis]], were Master Assassins. As well as those two, [[Dogan]] and [[Kasim]], who were Yusuf's lieutenants, also held the rank of Master Assassin. Duncan walpole was a master assassin trained by both English and Caribbean assassins.His mentor Ah Tabai was also a master assassin.

<ref name="ACR">''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''</ref>

In the 18th century, [[Achilles Davenport]] was a Master Assassin of the [[Colonial Assassins|Colonial Brotherhood]]. Following the near complete collapse of the sect in 1763, Achilles retreated into exile, but soon returned to prominence as the Mentor of the Assassin [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]].<ref name="AC3">''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''</ref>

For the 19th and 20th centuries, [[Nikolai Orelov]], a member of the [[Narodnaya Volya]] sect of the [[Russian Assassins]], was a Master Assassin as well.<ref name="ACTF">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Fall]]''</ref>

==Attire==
===Middle Ages===
Like other Assassins, Master Assassins possessed the eagle beak-like design upon their hoods, but their robes were generally longer, forming a bird-like "tail" that fluttered whenever they were in an area of strong wind. In addition, their leather belts were larger, their red sashes wider and longer, and they had permission to carry any weapon they desired.<ref name="AC"/>

===Renaissance===
With the order much less public, a uniform guideline as to the attire of a Master Assassin no longer existed. The Master Assassins of the [[Renaissance]] were a small, underground group, with broader access to knowledge and [[weapons]]. Most retained their [[freerunning]], [[Hidden Blade]]s and hooded traditions.<ref name="AC2">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref> Master Assassins were also the only Assassins permitted to wield dual Hidden Blades.

As [[Assassin Dens]] were erected within [[Constantinople]], Ezio Auditore promoted several high-ranking Assassins to be Master Assassins who guarded the structures. These new Master Assassins would be trained specially by Ezio to be able to fulfill their role, and this extra training allowed them to hold the Dens against [[Templars|Templar]] [[Den Defense|attacks]].

'''Duncan Walpole''' (1679 – 1715) was a member of the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]] stationed in the [[Caribbean]], during the early 18th century, who attempted to defect to the [[Templars]].
Duncan joined the British navy at the age of eighteen he served for three years.But was frustrated by his slow progress.He was recruited by a fellow sailor into the assassin brotherhood.
In June of 1715, the [[Royal Navy]] [[Ships|warship]] carrying Walpole, the [[HMS Intrigue|HMS ''Intrigue'']], identified and attacked a [[Piracy|pirate]] [[brig]], the ''[[Jacobite]]'', captained by [[Bramah]]. The pirates managed to de-mast the [[frigate]], but soon found that their own weapon magazine had been hit. Boarding the ship, Walpole assassinated the captain, but was thrown overboard by the magazine explosion.

Shipwrecked in [[Cape Bonavista]], [[Cuba]], Walpole attempted to enlist the aid of the only other survivor - the pirate [[Edward Kenway]] - in reaching [[Havana]]. Edward attempted to haggle the price of passage, but Duncan threatened him with a [[Firearms|flintlock pistol]] in response, only to find that it was unable to fire due to wet gunpowder. Walpole subsequently fled into the jungle, and Edward gave chase before eventually killing him.

On Duncan's corpse, Edward found a letter from the [[Spain|Spanish]] Governor of Cuba, [[Laureano de Torres y Ayala]], referencing the cargo Walpole was bringing to him, a [[Blood vials|blood vial]] and maps pertaining to the locations of [[Assassin bureau]]s across the [[Caribbean]]. Edward chose to assume Walpole's identity and collect the reward himself.<ref name="AC4">''[[Assassin's Creed IV: Black Flag]]''</ref>

'''Yusuf Tazim''' (c. 1467 – 1512) was the [[Assassin leader|leader]] of the [[Turkish Assassins|Ottoman Brotherhood]] of [[Assassins]], operating primarily in the Empire's capital of [[Constantinople]]. Born as the son of an Assassin, Yusuf was raised on the streets, and joined the Order in his late teens after meeting [[Ishak Pasha]].

He was involved in the fight against the [[Byzantine Empire|Byzantine]] [[Templars]] during the early 1510s, and aided [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] – a [[Mentor]] in the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]] and leader of the [[Italian Assassins]] – during his stay in Constantinople.

In the process, Yusuf and Ezio managed to form good relations with the Ottoman Prince [[Suleiman I]], and thwarted the Templars' plans to overthrow the [[Ottoman Empire]].

==Biography==
===Early life===
Yusuf was born in [[Bursa]], but grew up in Constantinople from the age of eight. His father was an Assassin, later prompting Yusuf to follow in his footsteps; however, he was raised only by his mother, with the fate of his father unknown.

Sometime around 1484, at the age of seventeen, Yusuf had become well known in the city as a vigilante and petty [[Thieves|thief]], which later caught the attention of Vizier and Assassin [[Ishak Pasha]]. Taken in by the man's charisma, Yusuf joined the Order just before he turned twenty.

In 1502, Yusuf allied with a contingent of [[Venice|Venetian]] Assassins in [[Greece]] to bring an end to the [[Ottoman Empire|Ottoman]]-Venetian war. Their efforts led to a halt in the battle, and a brief era of peace on their borders by 1503.

The Ottoman Assassins enjoyed this moment of peace until 1509, when the Templars banded together under the crest of the ancient [[Byzantine Empire]]. Yusuf led the Assassins in the struggle, and his efforts eventually allowed him to be appointed the leader of his guild by 1511.

===Meeting Ezio Auditore===
{{Quote|Hoşgeldin, kardeşim! (Welcome, brother!) Unless the legend is a lie, you are the man I've longed to meet. Renowned Master and Mentor, Ezio Auditore de la la la!|Yusuf first meeting with Ezio Auditore da Firenze.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}

[[File:ACR Welcome 6.png|thumb|250px|left|Yusuf meeting Ezio at the Golden Horn]]
In 1511, the Ottoman guild heard of Ezio Auditore's encounter with the Templars occupying the ancient Assassin fortress of [[Masyaf]], and Yusuf himself went to meet the Mentor at the [[Golden Horn]].

While he showed Ezio around the city, he explained the current conflict between the Assassins and Templars in Constantinople, as well as that between the Ottomans and Byzantines. He also spoke briefly to him of the Assassins' more dire situation when they had been under the Byzantine Emperor, where they had been hunted down and killed on sight.

Upon acquainting Ezio with the local Assassin guild in the [[Galata District]], Yusuf introduced him to the [[Hookblade]], a common tool of the Ottoman Assassins, which Yusuf claimed to have grown up using. After a demonstration of its features, the two climbed [[Galata Tower]] and viewed the city from above, before both performing a [[Leap of Faith]] to the street.

===Defending the Brotherhood===
{{Quote|When the Templars take control of a district, they flaunt their presence, hanging banners, extorting the merchants. It's a constant battle to keep them at bay, and they rub our noses in every victory.|Yusuf, regarding the struggle against the Templars.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}
As they went to return to the guild, Yusuf and Ezio were met by one of the Ottoman Assassins, who claimed that two of [[Assassin Dens|their dens]] were under attack. Knowing he could not be in two places at once, Yusuf sent Ezio to protect the Galata den, while he traveled to the [[Grand Bazaar]].

[[File:Upgrade 3.png|thumb|250px|right|Yusuf instructing the Ottoman Assassins]]
Though the Galata den was saved, Yusuf arrived too late, and the Bazaar became overrun by Templars. Ezio caught up with Yusuf in time to help him fend off several [[guards]], and the two set off to retake the district.

Upon reclaiming the den and verifying that it had not been damaged, Yusuf taught Ezio how to craft [[bombs]], and further recommended that he find [[Piri Reis]] should he wish to learn more.

At this point, Ezio also showed Yusuf the [[The Secret Crusade|journal]] of [[Niccolò Polo]], and told him of the [[Masyaf Keys]]. Though Yusuf did not know anything about the keys or the journal, he suggested that Ezio ask Piri for the directions to Niccolò and [[Maffeo Polo]]'s old trading post as well.

Some time afterward, Yusuf traveled to visit the Assassin allies of Constantinople; the [[Mercenaries]], Thieves, and [[Romani]]es. However, as they were each located in different districts, Ezio offered his help in coordinating with the Romanies, which Yusuf gratefully accepted.

===Rescuing Suleiman===
{{Dialogue|Ezio|The Byzantines found a key beneath Topkapı Palace, and I would like to know how.|Yusuf|Ezio, we want to protect our Şehzade (Prince) not interrogate him.|Yusuf and Ezio discussing the protection of Suleiman.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}

[[File:Prince's banquet 6.png|thumb|250px|left|Yusuf complaining about his minstrel outfit]]
Later in 1511, Yusuf and his Assassins discovered a [[Attack on Prince Suleiman|planned attempt]] on Prince Suleiman's life, soon after he had returned from a pilgrimage. In order to protect him, they prepared to infiltrate the Prince's cultural exhibition at [[Topkapı Palace]] dressed as [[Italy|Italian]] [[Civilians#Minstrels|entertainers]].

Ezio met with them as they discussed their plan atop the [[Hippodrome of Constantinople|Hippodrome]], and offered his help. However, Yusuf insisted that this was an Ottoman affair, and that he need not be involved.

As Ezio explained that he wanted to learn more about the Masyaf Key that had been found under Topkapı, Yusuf reminded him that their mission was to protect Suleiman, not question him. However, Yusuf finally consented to Ezio's request to trust him, and so the Ottoman Assassins and the two departed to secure disguises.

[[File:Prince's banquet 15.png|thumb|250px|right|Yusuf pointing out the last remaining Byzantine]]
After knocking out and stealing the clothing of several minstrels, they managed to enter the party. As Ezio distracted the crowd and identified the concealed Byzantines with [[Eagle Vision#Eagle Sense|his gift]], Yusuf and his men silently eliminated the targets and hid the bodies.

However, the Byzantines eventually realized the danger, and killed one of the palace guards, triggering the alarm. As the [[Janissaries]] quickly told Suleiman to escape the area, the Templars desperately tried an open attempt on Suleiman's life.

Yusuf broke his cover and killed several of the enemies with his blade, with Ezio intercepting the last hidden Templar, and killing him with the snapped off neck of his lute.

===Spying upon Palaiologos===
{{Dialogue|Yusuf|Feigning solidarity to push your own agenda. What a gentleman, no?|Ezio|It is not pretty, I know. But it will work.|Yusuf and Ezio, regarding the infiltration of the Arsenal.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}

After one of his Assassins had discovered the delivery of several [[firearms]] to the [[Harbor of Theodosius]], Yusuf left to investigate. There, he encountered Ezio, who had been tailing [[Tarik Barleti]] at Suleiman's request.

[[File:TAG 6.png|thumb|right|250px|Ezio and Yusuf before the Arsenal gates]]
As Ezio thought of a means of entering the well-guarded area, the two witnessed a couple of Janissaries terrorizing a nearby merchant and stealing his goods. Yusuf remarked on this oppression, and so Ezio concluded that using nearby [[heralds]] to [[Riot at the Harbor of Theodosius|provoke a riot]] would give enough cover for him to enter.

However, Yusuf frowned upon this idea, saying that Ezio would manipulate the people for his own purposes. Seeing the necessity though, he merely insisted that Ezio at least protect the rioters from the attacking guards during the distraction.

Upon doing so and successfully entering the port, Ezio soon discovered [[Manuel Palaiologos]] speaking with [[Shahkulu]] and Tarik, and overheard that the weapons would be bound for an unknown Templar base.

===Death===
{{Dialogue|Ezio|Yusuf, wait. Un favore. (A favor.) There is a woman running a bookshop at the old Polo trading post... Sofia. Look out for her. She is a remarkable lady.|Yusuf|You have my word.|Yusuf's and Ezio's final exchange.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}

[[File:Setting sail 2.png|thumb|250px|left|Yusuf walking with Ezio]]
In 1512, when Ezio decided to set sail for the Templar province of [[Derinkuyu|Cappadocia]] to pursue Manuel, Yusuf came to inform him that the [[Great Chain]] had been raised to block any ships from leaving. He then gave the Mentor a powerful explosive to destroy the structure, and aided him in attacking the ships that were stationed to intercept his escape.

Before departing, Ezio requested Yusuf to protect his love interest, [[Sofia Sartor]], from harm. Yusuf agreed, and he and the other Assassins guarded Sofia's residence at the former Polo trading post.

Sofia's shop was soon raided by Byzantine Templars, who had secretly been working for Prince [[Ahmet]]. Yusuf faced off against the Templars inside the store and managed to eliminate many of them, however, he was eventually dealt a fatal blow to the back, and Sofia was taken captive by the remaining attackers.

[[File:Discovery 2.png|thumb|250px|Ezio giving Yusuf his final rites]]
Upon Ezio's return from Cappadocia, he discovered Yusuf's body on a bench in Sofia's shop, with the [[Short blades|dagger]] still pierced into him. He removed the blade and closed Yusuf's eyes, offering him his final rites and saying quietly that he had earned his rest.

Enraged by both Yusuf's death and the endangerment of Sofia's life, Ezio led a large-scale assault on Ahmet's forces in the Arsenal. Though the Assassins managed to kill many of the soldiers, Ezio was forced to allow Ahmet to escape, as he still held Sofia hostage.

Soon after Yusuf had been buried in a small cemetery near Galata Tower, Ezio spoke with the Ottoman Assassins who had gathered in his memory and appointed [[Dogan|one among them]] as the new leader of the guild.

==Personality and characteristics==
{{Dialogue2|Yusuf|Ah ah ah! Don't touch that! One wrong move and BANG! The building comes down!|Ezio|Are you serious?|The look on your face! Here, I'll show you.|Yusuf teaching Ezio to craft bombs.|Assassin's Creed: Revelations}}

[[File:Setting sail 1.png|thumb|250px|left|Yusuf speaking with Ezio just before he departs for Cappadocia]]
Yusuf was a light-hearted and cheerful man, whom Ezio once described as an "affable fighter." Even when engaged in battle or facing several enemies, he would often joke about the situation.

Nevertheless, Yusuf was a skilled warrior and a respected leader, showing open attachment to his fellow Assassins and receiving their obedience in return. Though fighting for the Order's interests, he also acknowledged Constantinople as a whole; putting importance in the protection of their Prince, regardless of whether or not he aided the Assassins.

Yusuf wore tan Assassin robes and a headband, both with teal sashes, an attire matching that of other Ottoman Master Assassins. He wielded a [[Yusuf's Turkish Kijil|personal kijil]], a [[Hidden Blade]], a Hookblade and [[throwing knives]].

==Trivia==
*In the memory "[[The Prince's Banquet]]", Yusuf made use of a [[Parachutes|parachute]]. Previously, Ezio was the only person seen using them.
*Yusuf jokingly referred to himself as "Yusuf Tazim da Istanbul" during his first time meeting Ezio, when told that "da [[Florence|Firenze]]" indicated the city where Ezio was born. This is puzzling, as Yusuf was born in {{Wiki|Bursa}}.
*Yusuf and Suleiman were the names of two central characters in {{Wiki|Vladimir Bartol}}'s {{Wiki|Alamut (1938 novel)|''Alamut''}}, on which ''[[Assassin's Creed]]'' is partially based. They were the two who performed "leaps of faith" and died for the sake of the paradise promised to them by their Master.
*In the [[Assassin's Creed: Revelations (novel)|novelization]], it was claimed that Yusuf was fifteen years younger than Ezio.
*Yusuf is a Turkish and Arabic variant of the Hebrew name יוֹסֵף (''Yosef''), meaning "the Lord increases". Tazim is an Arabic name that means "to venerate, to show respect, to revere".
**Yusuf's surname was also the first name of [[Malik Al-Sayf]]'s son, [[Tazim Al-Sayf|Tazim]].

{{Era|ACAC|AC|ACB|ACR|AC3|AC3L|AC4|TF|Assassins}}
[[File:AssassinLogo.png|180px|thumb|The Assassin insignia]]
The title of '''Master Assassin''' was one of the highest obtainable [[ranks]] within the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]], and those who held this title were presumed to have reached the peak of their training as an Assassin. The rank garnered a large amount of respect from other members within the Order and indicated individuals who possessed uncommon skill and talent, most often in the arts of stealth and assassination.

A Master Assassin was meant to embody [[the Creed]]: they never harmed an innocent, always hid in plain sight, and never compromised the Brotherhood.

==History==
In 1176, [[Umar Ibn-La'Ahad]] and his fellow Assassin [[Faheem Al-Sayf]] held the title of Master Assassin. However, Umar gave his life to spare the Brotherhood from a siege, in retribution for an assassination gone wrong.<ref name="ACTSC">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Secret Crusade]]''</ref>

In 1191, [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]] held the position, before being demoted to a [[novice]] following his failure to obtain the [[Apple of Eden 2|Apple of Eden]] beneath [[Solomon's Temple]], along with his arrogance and disregard of the tenets of the Creed. He eventually regained this title through [[Hunt for the Nine|several assassinations]] in support of the Order's interests, and held it during the assassinations of [[Robert de Sable]] and [[Rashid ad-Din Sinan|Al Mualim]].Malik Al-Sayf was also a master assassin during this time<ref name="AC">''[[Assassin's Creed]]''</ref>

In 1499, [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]] obtained the rank, before rising to be the [[Mentor]] of the [[Italian Assassins]], following the [[Liberation of Rome|liberation]] of [[Rome]] from the [[House of Borgia]]'s grasp.<ref name="ACB">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref> Also, during the 16th century, [[Yusuf Tazim]], the leader of the [[Turkish Assassins|Constantinople Assassins Guild]], alongside the famed Turkish navy admiral, cartographer, and [[Bombs|bomb]] specialist [[Piri Reis]], were Master Assassins. As well as those two, [[Dogan]] and [[Kasim]], who were Yusuf's lieutenants, also held the rank of Master Assassin.<ref name="ACR">''[[Assassin's Creed: Revelations]]''</ref>

In the 18th century, [[Achilles Davenport]] was a Master Assassin of the [[Colonial Assassins|Colonial Brotherhood]]. Following the near complete collapse of the sect in 1763, Achilles retreated into exile, but soon returned to prominence as the Mentor of the Assassin [[Ratonhnhaké:ton]].<ref name="AC3">''[[Assassin's Creed III]]''</ref>

For the 19th and 20th centuries, [[Nikolai Orelov]], a member of the [[Narodnaya Volya]] sect of the [[Russian Assassins]], was a Master Assassin as well.<ref name="ACTF">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Fall]]''</ref>

==Attire==
===Middle Ages===
Like other Assassins, Master Assassins possessed the eagle beak-like design upon their hoods, but their robes were generally longer, forming a bird-like "tail" that fluttered whenever they were in an area of strong wind. In addition, their leather belts were larger, their red sashes wider and longer, and they had permission to carry any weapon they desired.<ref name="AC"/>

===Renaissance===
With the order much less public, a uniform guideline as to the attire of a Master Assassin no longer existed. The Master Assassins of the [[Renaissance]] were a small, underground group, with broader access to knowledge and [[weapons]]. Most retained their [[freerunning]], [[Hidden Blade]]s and hooded traditions.<ref name="AC2">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref> Master Assassins were also the only Assassins permitted to wield dual Hidden Blades.

As [[Assassin Dens]] were erected within [[Constantinople]], Ezio Auditore promoted several high-ranking Assassins to be Master Assassins who guarded the structures. These new Master Assassins would be trained specially by Ezio to be able to fulfill their role, and this extra training allowed them to hold the Dens against [[Templars|Templar]] [[Den Defense|attacks]].
