==Biography==
On 1858, the empress and her family escaped [[Orsini affair|assassination]] due to the work of [[Pierrette Arnaud]], with the event seeming to make the emperor and empress even more authoritarian.<ref name = "Chapter 3">''Assassin's Creed: The Engine of History – The Resurrection Plot'' – Chapter 3</ref> 

On 1869, Eugenie was the guest of honor for the inauguration of the [[Khedivial Opera House]] in [[Cairo]], [[Egypt]]. Information intercepted by [[Master Assassin]] [[Amira Benyamina]] suggested that Templar [[Albert Hawkins]] would use the empress’s presence at the opera to conduct some business with her, but he was assassinated by Pierrette before the two could meet.<ref name = "Chapter 2"/> Upon discovering Hawkins' plans to bomb the opera house, Pierrette suspected the plot was to save her from another bombing and in turn, turn the French into a more authoritarian regime, as the first bombing had done years prior.<ref name = "Chapter 3"/>
