In March 1507, Ezio Auditore da Firenzo personally picked out a team of Assassins consisting of; [[Bastiano da Mezzo]], [[Alessandra d'Avanzago]] , [[Dariâ]], and [[Claudio (Assassin)|Claudio]], to accompany him to [[Kingdom of Navarre|Navarre]], during his hunt for [[Cesare Borgia]]. While Cesare was laying siege to the [[Viana Castle|castle]], while the team created a diversion and managed to distract the Templars long enough for their Mentor to enter the fortress. In the process however, the Assassins were caught and imprisoned. Luckily they were able to send a carrier pigeon away to notify their allies of their predicament, sending for help.

	The Assassins sought to upgrade their base and were advised by their Mentor to find Leonardo da Vinci in Venice. However, da Vinci was in hiding from the City Guard, who wanted to exploit him for war machines. The Assassins rescued his apprentice, [[Salaì]], from capture, and the Doge promised protection for da Vinci, a promise undermined by Templar ally [[Niccolò di Pitigliano]], who controlled the City Guard. The Assassins extracted da Vinci and his defensive tank to their headquarters as ~~Pitigliano’s~~ forces seized his workshop.<ref name="ACBOV2">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood of Venice]]''</ref>		The Assassins sought to upgrade their base and were advised by their Mentor to find Leonardo da Vinci in Venice.

	After the Templars took control of the [[Venetian Navy]], the Assassins discovered an experimental naval cannon. Using da Vinci's tank, they neutralized the threat and retrieved the cannon for upgrades. When negotiations with Pitigliano failed due to his high demands, Ezio suggested enlisting Niccolò Machiavelli as a mediator. They devised a successful plan to steal Pitigliano's funds, leading to a meeting that strengthened their headquarters with Machiavelli's wheeled pistol.<ref name="ACBOV2" />		After the Templars took control of the [[Venetian Navy]], the Assassins discovered an experimental naval cannon.

	Maintaining discretion, the Assassins carefully surveyed the plaza, looking for the Staff.

Undeterred, they ascended to a high viewpoint and quickly spotted the Staff.

	By 1510, the Assassin [[Francesco Vecellio]] had acquired enough experience to handle missions on his own and had even trained a group of his own Assassin apprentices. That year, he was entrusted with a significant assignment: to assassinate Niccolò di Pitigliano and liberate the people of Lonigo from his oppressive rule. Francesco began his mission by gathering intelligence on his target. He spent time with the locals at taverns and brothels, and intercepted ~~Niccolò’s~~ couriers. As time passed, Francesco learned the reasons behind the citizens' discontent and discovered that Niccolò had secret connections in Rome. He then focused on studying ~~Niccolò’s~~ daily routine, waiting for the ideal moment to strike.<ref name="Project Legacy2" />		By 1510, the Assassin [[Francesco Vecellio]] had acquired enough experience to handle missions on his own and had even trained a group of his own Assassin apprentices.
