{{Dialogue2|Eve|Adam, I have it.|Adam|Eve--|Look out!|Adam and Eve discuss the Piece of Eden|Assassin&#039;s Creed II}}&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Adam and Eve&#039;&#039;&#039; were the two [[humans]] shown in [[Subject 16]]&#039;s [[The Truth]] video. They were humans who rebelled against [[Those Who Came Before]]. In the Truth video, they are seen running from someone or something. They use [[free-running]] to climb a large, futuristic looking building. While Adam and Eve are climbing the building, Minerva, from Those Who Came Before is seen using a [[Piece of Eden]] to enslave a group of human workers.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Both Adam and Eve (as well as other humans in the Truth video) are dressed in skin tight translucent suits (appearing almost as naked as their biblical counterparts).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Binary Code at end of The Truth video translates to:&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;01000101 = &#039;&#039;&#039;E&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;01000100 = &#039;&#039;&#039;D&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;01000101 = &#039;&#039;&#039;E&#039;&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;br /&amp;gt;01001110 = &#039;&#039;&#039;N&#039;&#039;&#039;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
If you count the number of zeros and ones there are in the Binary Code, you find 20 zeroes and 12 ones. These zeros and ones can translate to 2012, the year Abstergo launches its satellite and gains control over the world.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Subject 16]]&#039;s record shows that the artifacts ([[the Staff|the Papal Staff]], the Apple of Eden, and the other Pieces of Eden) were tools that the First Civilization used to wield power over humans. One glyph puzzle reveals that human-kind was neurologically programmed to obey the pieces. However, some are immune to the pieces of Eden due to the humans and Those Who Came Before interbreeding (according to Subject 16). This being the case, [[Desmond Miles]] and his ancestors&#039; [[Eagle Vision]], their resistance to the pieces of Eden, and [[Ezio Auditore]]&#039;s ability to open [[the Vault]], largely shows that Desmond&#039;s bloodline descends from this union due to the unique traits only given by such a union (stated by [[Juno]] at the end of &#039;&#039;Assassin&#039;s Creed: Brotherhood&#039;&#039;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Biblical==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:415px-Lucas_Cranach_the_Elder-Adam_and_Eve_1533.jpg|thumb|&#039;&#039;Adam and Eve&#039;&#039; by Lucas Cranach the Elder.]]&lt;br /&gt;
Genesis tells the story of Adam and Eve in chapters 1, 2 and 3, with some additional elements in chapters 4 and 5:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Genesis 2&#039;&#039;&#039; opens with God fashioning a man from the dust of the Earth and blowing life into his nostrils. God plants a garden (the Garden of Eden) and sets the man there, &amp;quot;to work it and watch over it,&amp;quot; permitting him to eat of all the trees in the garden, except the Tree of Knowledge of Good and Evil, &amp;quot;for on the day you eat of it you shall surely die.&amp;quot; God had already created the animals, and saw that Adam was the only one of his kind, and allowed the man to name all the animals and find a help-mate. After naming them all, the man could not find companionship in any of them, and so God causes the man to sleep, and creates a woman from his rib. The man names her &amp;quot;Woman&amp;quot; (Heb. ishah), &amp;quot;for this one was taken from a man&amp;quot; (Heb. ish). &amp;quot;On account of this a man leaves his father and his mother and clings to his woman.&amp;quot; Genesis 2 ends with the note that the man and woman were naked, and were not ashamed.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Genesis 3&#039;&#039;&#039; introduces the Serpent, &amp;quot;Slier than every beast of the field.&amp;quot; The serpent tempts the woman to eat from the tree of knowledge, telling her that God lied, and that it will not lead to death, but make her and the man like gods themselves. She succumbs, and gives the fruit to the man, who eats also, &amp;quot;and the eyes of the two of them were opened.&amp;quot; Aware now of their nakedness, they make coverings of fig leaves, and hide from the sight of God. God asks them about what they have done. Adam blames Eve, and Eve blames the serpent. God curses the snake (who before this must have been able to walk, because) verse 14 says &amp;quot;upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.&amp;quot; God then curses Adam and Eve with hard labor, and with pain in childbirth, and banishes them from his garden, setting a cherub at the gate to bar their way to the Tree of Life, &amp;quot;lest he put out his hand ... and eat, and live forever.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Genesis 4 and 5&#039;&#039;&#039; give the story of Adam and Eve&#039;s family after they leave the garden: three children are named, [[Cain]], [[Abel]] and Seth, as well as other sons and daughters. Adam lived for 930 years (&amp;quot;the woman&amp;quot; is given the name Eve in the closing verses of Genesis 3, &amp;quot;because she was the mother of all living&amp;quot;, in Hebrew pronounced &amp;quot;hava&amp;quot; which also means &amp;quot;a farm&amp;quot;; Adam gets his name when the initial definite article is dropped, changing &amp;quot;ha-adam&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;the man&amp;quot;, to &amp;quot;Adam&amp;quot;).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Video:Assassin&#039;s Creed 2: The Truth|thumb|300px|right|The Truth video.]]&lt;br /&gt;
*In the PS3 version, at the end of Truth video, Eve doesn&#039;t shout: &amp;quot;Look Out!&amp;quot; However, in the other versions she does.&lt;br /&gt;
*Adam is voiced by [[Nolan North]], the same person who voices Desmond Miles.&lt;br /&gt;
*In &#039;&#039;[[Assassins Creed: Brotherhood]]&#039;&#039;, after completing all twenty of Subject Sixteen&#039;s puzzles, you are shown a video where Sixteen tells you to look for Eve through her DNA.&lt;br /&gt;
*In Hebrew, human beings are called &amp;quot;bney adam&amp;quot; which means &amp;quot;sons/children of adam&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;sons/children of man&amp;quot;. For &#039;&#039;&#039;a&#039;&#039;&#039; man &amp;quot;ben adam&amp;quot; and for &#039;&#039;&#039;a&#039;&#039;&#039; woman &amp;quot;bat adam&amp;quot;. Also, the meaning of the name Habel is mouth breathe because, like the mouth breathe, his life &amp;quot;disappeared&amp;quot;, and the source of Cain&#039;s name is &amp;quot;blacksmith&amp;quot; (probably given to him because he was the first one).&lt;br /&gt;
*The word &amp;quot;Isha&amp;quot; in Hebrew isn&#039;t only Eve&#039;s name but also means &amp;quot;her man&amp;quot; (like a husband).&lt;br /&gt;

{{quote| I believe there was a book that claimed the world was created in seven days. Best-seller too!|Dr. Vidic on the Bible.|Assassin&#039;s Creed}}&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Warren Vidic&#039;&#039;&#039; is a member of the [[Templars|Templar Order]] and a scientist employed by [[Abstergo Industries]]. He is also the head of research for the [[genetic memory]] and the [[Animus project]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed]]&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Biography==&lt;br /&gt;
===Early life===&lt;br /&gt;
Little is known about Warren&#039;s life. Vidic has been working for Abstergo since at least 1982. He is not a typically happy man, and is driven by his constant work. Warren leads the Animus project, but left the assembly and engineering of the Animi up to his co-worker on the Animus project, [[Lucy Stillman]], and the Abstergo engineers. &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Subject 4===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Abstergo doctor-The Fall1.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Vidic operating on Subject 4 in 1985.]]&lt;br /&gt;
In 1985, Vidic started to experiment on [[Daniel Cross]], who would be called &amp;quot;Subject 4&amp;quot;. Vidic put Cross in the Animus to relive the memories of his ancestor, though he also experimented on Cross with a replica &amp;quot;[[Piece of Eden]]&amp;quot;. Cross also had a secret impulse embedded into his subconscious that would drive him to assassinate [[The Mentor (2000)|the Mentor]] of the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]], should the opportunity to do so arise. In 2000, Cross met with the Mentor of the Assassin Order in their headquarters located in [[Dubai]], where he unwillingly killed the Mentor. He returned to Abstergo Industries&#039; headquarters in Philadelphia, where Cross&#039; own memories were used to find all the Assassin camps and exterminate the Assassins.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed: The Fall&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed: The Fall]]&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Subject 17===&lt;br /&gt;
In the year 2012, Warren Vidic holds the position of head of genetic research at Abstergo Industries; part of his role includes looking after test subjects for his Animus project. That year, he authorized the capture of the seventeenth test subject; a middle-aged bartender named [[Desmond Miles]]. At first, Vidic found the new test subject both unwilling and, subconsciously, not confident enough to explore his ancestor&#039;s memories. Vidic only managed to gain his cooperation after threatening a coma and an inevitable death.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite Desmond&#039;s cooperation, however, progress was slow. Vidic&#039;s assistant, [[Lucy Stillman]], was overly protective of Desmond&#039;s health, and insisted on only short sessions within the Animus, lest their latest test subject begin to [[Bleeding effect|hallucinate]] as the previous subject did. Disheartened but compliant, Vidic ordered Desmond to his quarters and left the [[Abstergo laboratory|laboratory]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:AssassinsCreed_Vidic_Animus.png|thumb|left|260px|Vidic talking to Desmond.]]&lt;br /&gt;
As the week went on, and Desmond made progress within the Animus, Vidic&#039;s mood swung between calm and collected to irritable and short-tempered. During one such day, whilst looking out over the skyline outside his laboratory, Vidic unknowingly left his access pen in plain sight; Desmond managed to acquire it without Vidic becoming aware. Towards the end of the week, as Desmond began to approach the conclusion of his journey within the memories, Vidic started to become much more insistent on a quick closure.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After witnessing the death of [[Al Mualim]] and activation of the [[Sixth Apple|Piece of Eden]] in Desmond&#039;s genetic memories, Vidic recorded the map displayed within the memory, commenting &amp;quot;We&#039;ve got it&amp;quot;. As Desmond awoke, he saw three suited individuals in the laboratory&#039;s conference room. The three begun discussing with Vidic the results, and insisted upon Desmond&#039;s execution; Vidic agreed, but was cut short by Lucy, who insisted that Desmond&#039;s use had not yet ended. The two argued to the point of Vidic claiming that Lucy was undermining his authority, and Vidic stubbornly agreed in Lucy&#039;s assessment to let Desmond live; to &amp;quot;leave nothing to chance&amp;quot;. Ordering Desmond back into his room, Vidic left the laboratory.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Abstergo escape===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Quote|We miss you terribly. There&#039;s still so much work for us to do together.|Dr. Warren Vidic to Desmond, during his attempt to capture him|Assassin&#039;s Creed II}}&lt;br /&gt;
The next day, Vidic received word of Desmond&#039;s escape, and the direct assistance Lucy had given him in executing it. Abstergo quickly set about tracking down the [[Assassins]], and within three days had found the two in a Florentine warehouse and attempted to re-capture them.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed II]]&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Locating the [[hideout]], Vidic took a contingent of Abstergo security guards to apprehend Desmond and Lucy, arriving just as Desmond finished exploring the memories of another of his ancestors – [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]]. Cutting off the Assassins&#039; escape, Vidic attempted to coerce Desmond into coming peacefully whilst berating Lucy for her apparent betrayal. The two rejected him, and so Vidic ordered his guards to apprehend them. Minutes later, following the death or incapacitation of his entourage, Vidic was confronted by Desmond at the rear of his vehicle. Desmond challenged Warren to step down from the vehicle and to stop his cowardace, but Vidic replied by commenting that the Assassins should enjoy their temporary victory, and fled, leaving the Assassins to find a new hideout.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, Vidic went on to initiate and train a team of Abstergo&#039;s loyal agents into more &amp;quot;subjects&amp;quot; like Desmond, through the use of several Animi, and the [[bleeding effect]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed: Brotherhood&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed: Brotherhood]]&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personality and characteristics==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Vidic_Pen.png|thumb|right|Warren with his access pen completely accessible.]]&lt;br /&gt;
Dr. Warren Vidic was a hardened scientist and fanatical member of the Knights Templar during the early 21&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;st&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; Century. Although an intelligent man, Vidic was somewhat forgetful, and would often need reminding of pass-codes and the likes; he also tended to leave his access key on display, and had on more than one occasion lost it outright.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An atheist, Vidic believed wholeheartedly in the nonexistence of God, suggesting that many religious artifacts such as the Holy Grail, the [[Ark of the Covenant]] and the [[Sixth Apple|Apple of Eden]] were simply [[Pieces of Eden|technology]] left behind by [[Those Who Came Before]] as gifts to the Templars; a belief which he thought to be fact. Ruthless, yet clumsy, Vidic had a short temper and showed little care for the welfare of his test subjects.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On at least one occasion, as in the case of [[Subject 16]], Vidic&#039;s insistence that his test subject remain in the Animus for dangerously long periods of time, sometimes even whole days, led to the subject&#039;s suicide.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Despite this, Vidic was unfazed, merely requesting another test subject.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; This seventeenth test subject – Desmond Miles – eventually succeeded where his predecessors had failed, and obtained the map indicating the location of the Pieces of Eden. This success, however, did little to ingratiate him in the eyes of Dr. Vidic, who agreed with the assessment of his superiors that Desmond should be executed. His mind only changed after being convinced by his assistant, [[Lucy Stillman]], that Desmond could still be of further use.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Warren&#039;s relationship with Lucy was frosty at best. Despite saving her life and taking her under his wing, Warren seemed to barely tolerate her presence, and found her insistence on prolonging the project irritating. Despite this however, he did care for Lucy, and would withhold information from her that he knew would force his hand had she known; such as the circumstances surrounding the death of her friend [[Leila Marino]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Following her and Desmond&#039;s escape, Vidic located and intercepted the two assassins as they attempted to flee their hideout; he commented on her treachery and how she had helped him cause pain and misery to his test subjects.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
*His first name means &amp;quot;Guarded&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Of la Varenne&amp;quot; (La Varenne is a suburb of Paris, indicating that this is where he may have come from) in Old English.&lt;br /&gt;
*Although his last name Vidic is a common Serbian surname (Serbian latinic: Vidić, pronounced: ˈʋiditɕ) and roughly translates to &amp;quot;the one who sees&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;of those who see&amp;quot;, it was never stated that he is from that country.&lt;br /&gt;
*Desmond taking Warren&#039;s access pen is (so far) the only example of pickpocketing shown in modern times. Whether this is a manifestation of the Bleeding effect, or Desmond is simply skilled at picking someone&#039;s pocket is unknown.&lt;br /&gt;
*Warren&#039;s face seems a lot more detailed in &#039;&#039;Assassin&#039;s Creed&#039;&#039; than &#039;&#039;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&#039;&#039;. The reason behind this could be that he has a minor appearance in &#039;&#039;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&#039;&#039;, and the developers just implemented Warren&#039;s key features to save time.&lt;br /&gt;
*Vidic owns a Lamborghini and another sports car, as seen in the garage where Desmond and Lucy fight off the Abstergo guards.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the &#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed: Brotherhood]]&#039;&#039; multiplayer, Vidic features in the introductory video, and as the narrator for the training program.&lt;br /&gt;
*Certain letter within the [[Rifts|Rift]] Cluster puzzles are signed with the initials W.V., such as a letter discussing the partial reproduction of the Pieces of Eden&#039;s mind control signal over a television network.&lt;br /&gt;

He is also the head of research for the [[genetic memory]] and the [[Animus project]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed]]&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Biography==&lt;br /&gt;
===Early life===&lt;br /&gt;
Little is known about Warren&#039;s life. Vidic has been working for Abstergo since at least 1982. He is not a typically happy man, and is driven by his constant work. Warren leads the Animus project, but left the assembly and engineering of the Animi up to his co-worker on the Animus project, [[Lucy Stillman]], and the Abstergo engineers. &amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Subject 4===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Abstergo doctor-The Fall1.jpg|thumb|right|200px|Vidic operating on Subject 4 in 1985.]]&lt;br /&gt;
In 1985, Vidic started to experiment on [[Daniel Cross]], who would be called &amp;quot;Subject 4&amp;quot;. Vidic put Cross in the Animus to relive the memories of his ancestor, though he also experimented on Cross with a replica &amp;quot;[[Piece of Eden]]&amp;quot;. Cross also had a secret impulse embedded into his subconscious that would drive him to assassinate [[The Mentor (2000)|the Mentor]] of the [[Assassins|Assassin Order]], should the opportunity to do so arise. In 2000, Cross met with the Mentor of the Assassin Order in their headquarters located in [[Dubai]], where he unwillingly killed the Mentor. He returned to Abstergo Industries&#039; headquarters in Philadelphia, where Cross&#039; own memories were used to find all the Assassin camps and exterminate the Assassins.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed: The Fall&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed: The Fall]]&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Subject 17===&lt;br /&gt;
In the year 2012, Warren Vidic holds the position of head of genetic research at Abstergo Industries; part of his role includes looking after test subjects for his Animus project. That year, he authorized the capture of the seventeenth test subject; a middle-aged bartender named [[Desmond Miles]]. At first, Vidic found the new test subject both unwilling and, subconsciously, not confident enough to explore his ancestor&#039;s memories. Vidic only managed to gain his cooperation after threatening a coma and an inevitable death.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Despite Desmond&#039;s cooperation, however, progress was slow. Vidic&#039;s assistant, [[Lucy Stillman]], was overly protective of Desmond&#039;s health, and insisted on only short sessions within the Animus, lest their latest test subject begin to [[Bleeding effect|hallucinate]] as the previous subject did. Disheartened but compliant, Vidic ordered Desmond to his quarters and left the [[Abstergo laboratory|laboratory]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:AssassinsCreed_Vidic_Animus.png|thumb|left|260px|Vidic talking to Desmond.]]&lt;br /&gt;
As the week went on, and Desmond made progress within the Animus, Vidic&#039;s mood swung between calm and collected to irritable and short-tempered. During one such day, whilst looking out over the skyline outside his laboratory, Vidic unknowingly left his access pen in plain sight; Desmond managed to acquire it without Vidic becoming aware. Towards the end of the week, as Desmond began to approach the conclusion of his journey within the memories, Vidic started to become much more insistent on a quick closure.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After witnessing the death of [[Al Mualim]] and activation of the [[Sixth Apple|Piece of Eden]] in Desmond&#039;s genetic memories, Vidic recorded the map displayed within the memory, commenting &amp;quot;We&#039;ve got it&amp;quot;. As Desmond awoke, he saw three suited individuals in the laboratory&#039;s conference room. The three begun discussing with Vidic the results, and insisted upon Desmond&#039;s execution; Vidic agreed, but was cut short by Lucy, who insisted that Desmond&#039;s use had not yet ended. The two argued to the point of Vidic claiming that Lucy was undermining his authority, and Vidic stubbornly agreed in Lucy&#039;s assessment to let Desmond live; to &amp;quot;leave nothing to chance&amp;quot;. Ordering Desmond back into his room, Vidic left the laboratory.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===After the escape===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Quote|We miss you terribly. There&#039;s still so much work for us to do together.|Dr. Warren Vidic to Desmond, during his attempt to capture him|Assassin&#039;s Creed II}}&lt;br /&gt;
The next day, Vidic received word of Desmond&#039;s escape, and the direct assistance Lucy had given him in executing it. Abstergo quickly set about tracking down the [[Assassins]], and within three days had found the two and attempted to re-capture them.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed II]]&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Locating the [[hideout]], Vidic took a contingent of Abstergo security guards to apprehend Desmond and Lucy, arriving just as Desmond finished exploring the memories of another of his ancestors – [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]]. Cutting off the Assassins&#039; escape, Vidic attempted to coerce Desmond into coming peacefully whilst berating Lucy for her apparent betrayal. The two rejected him, and so Vidic ordered his guards to apprehend them. Minutes later, following the death or incapacitation of his entourage, Vidic was confronted by Desmond at the rear of his vehicle. Commenting that the Assassins should enjoy their temporary victory, he fled, leaving the Assassins to find a new hideout.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After that, Vidic went on to initiate and train a team of Abstergo&#039;s loyal agents into more &amp;quot;subjects&amp;quot; like Desmond, through the use of several Animi, and the [[bleeding effect]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed: Brotherhood&amp;quot;&amp;gt;&#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed: Brotherhood]]&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Personality and characteristics==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Vidic_Pen.png|thumb|right|Warren with his access pen completely accessible.]]&lt;br /&gt;
Dr. Warren Vidic was a hardened scientist and fanatical member of the Knights Templar during the early 21&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;st&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; Century. Although an intelligent man, Vidic was somewhat forgetful, and would often need reminding of pass-codes and the likes; he also tended to leave his access key on display, and had on more than one occasion lost it outright.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
An atheist, Vidic believed wholeheartedly in the nonexistence of God, suggesting that many religious artifacts such as the Holy Grail, the [[Ark of the Covenant]] and the [[Sixth Apple|Apple of Eden]] were simply [[Pieces of Eden|technology]] left behind by [[Those Who Came Before]] as gifts to the Templars; a belief which he thought to be fact. Ruthless, yet clumsy, Vidic had a short temper and showed little care for the welfare of his test subjects.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
On at least one occasion, as in the case of [[Subject 16]], Vidic&#039;s insistence that his test subject remain in the Animus for dangerously long periods of time, sometimes even whole days, led to the subject&#039;s suicide.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Despite this, Vidic was unfazed, merely requesting another test subject.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; This seventeenth test subject – Desmond Miles – eventually succeeded where his predecessors had failed, and obtained the map indicating the location of the Pieces of Eden. This success, however, did little to ingratiate him in the eyes of Dr. Vidic, who agreed with the assessment of his superiors that Desmond should be executed. His mind only changed after being convinced by his assistant, [[Lucy Stillman]], that Desmond could still be of further use.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Warren&#039;s relationship with Lucy was frosty at best. Despite saving her life and taking her under his wing, Warren seemed to barely tolerate her presence, and found her insistence on prolonging the project irritating. Despite this however, he did care for Lucy, and would withhold information from her that he knew would force his hand had she known; such as the circumstances surrounding the death of her friend [[Leila Marino]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Following her and Desmond&#039;s escape, Vidic located and intercepted the two assassins as they attempted to flee their hideout; he commented on her treachery and how she had helped him cause pain and misery to his test subjects.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Trivia==&lt;br /&gt;
*His first name means &amp;quot;Guarded&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;Of la Varenne&amp;quot; (La Varenne is a suburb of Paris, indicating that this is where he may have come from) in Old English.&lt;br /&gt;
*Although his last name Vidic is a common Serbian surname (Serbian latinic: Vidić, pronounced: ˈʋiditɕ) and roughly translates to &amp;quot;the one who sees&amp;quot; or &amp;quot;of those who see&amp;quot;, it was never stated that he is from that country.&lt;br /&gt;
*Desmond taking Warren&#039;s access pen is (so far) the only example of pickpocketing shown in modern times. Whether this is a manifestation of the Bleeding effect, or Desmond is simply skilled at picking someone&#039;s pocket is unknown.&lt;br /&gt;
*Warren&#039;s face seems a lot more detailed in &#039;&#039;Assassin&#039;s Creed&#039;&#039; than &#039;&#039;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&#039;&#039;. The reason behind this could be that he has a minor appearance in &#039;&#039;Assassin&#039;s Creed II&#039;&#039;, and the developers just implemented Warren&#039;s key features to save time.&lt;br /&gt;
*Vidic owns a Lamborghini and another sports car, as seen in the garage where Desmond and Lucy fight off the Abstergo guards.&lt;br /&gt;
*In the &#039;&#039;[[Assassin&#039;s Creed: Brotherhood]]&#039;&#039; multiplayer, Vidic features in the introductory video, and as the narrator for the training program.&lt;br /&gt;
*Certain letter within the [[Rifts|Rift]] Cluster puzzles are signed with the initials W.V., such as a letter discussing the partial reproduction of the Pieces of Eden&#039;s mind control signal over a television network.&lt;br /&gt;
