{{Era|Individuals|Ancients}}
'''Arman''' (died 867) was a member of the [[Order of the Ancients]] in [[Constantinople]] in the 9th century.

===Biography===
In 867, working under his leader [[Isaac]], Arman followed Isaac's plan with Emperor [[Basil I]]'s blessing to invade the emperor's palace and [[Assassinate|assassinate]] their targets, Basil's son [[Leo VI the Wise|Leo]] and his nurse [[Anna (nurse)|Anna]]. Arman and other Order [[member]]s infiltrated the palace easily due to the children wing's guards being poisoned by their inside man [[Theodore]], Leo's tutor. At one moment, Arman almost captured the boy but Leo fought him off and escaped. Fortunately, Leo hid from his assailants in one of the garden's fountains. After the [[Hidden Ones]] [[Hytham]] and his mentor [[Basim Ibn Ishaq]] came to fight off the attackers, Arman and other surviving Order members fled the palace.<ref name="Chapter 16">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Golden City]]'' – Chapter Sixteen</ref>

Setting a trap for Basim, Arman and his team waited as he tracked one of their injured brothers to an abandoned building. However, they saw that it was Hytham instead but captured and brought him to their hideout.<ref name="Chapter 17">''Assassin's Creed: The Golden City'' – Chapter Seventeen</ref> Restraining Hytham, Arman first interrogated the Hidden One and gave respect to him for Leo's training. With no response, Arman began to torture Hytham until Hytham quickly severely bruised Arman's fingers with his knees. Immediately, another Order member came in and dismissed Arman from his duties.<ref name="Chapter 18">''Assassin's Creed: The Golden City'' – Chapter Eighteen</ref>

===Death===
During Isaac's interrogation,<ref name="Chapter 19">''Assassin's Creed: The Golden City'' – Chapter Nineteen</ref> their hideout was attacked by both Basim and [[Thyra (Eagle Clan)|Thyra]], who brought Leo along, to save Hytham. While Basim went to save Hytham, Thyra held off Isaac and his fellow Order members, including Arman. However, Thyra held her own and even killed Arman, leaving only Isaac and another assailant to fend off.<ref name="Chapter 20">''Assassin's Creed: The Golden City'' – Chapter Twenty</ref>
