	On 23 May, William finally gathered the crew members to announce the identity of the spy. He promptly named Stephanie as the traitor and ordered Galina to kill her. However, Eric Cooper intervened, frantically claiming to be the spy instead. Stephanie then tried to deflect blame back to herself by insisting that Eric had only been the one writing the reports, but she had been the one uploading them to the Initiates database. To their relief, William admitted that his order was only a prank, having already decided to spare them both after coming away impressed with them in their interviews.<ref name="ACI" />		On 23 May, William finally gathered the crew members to announce the identity of the spy.

	Born to a couple of pharmacologists that worked in [[Beijing]], Stephanie's life was planned out carefully by her parents, with their aim being to have her study hard, qualify as a doctor and work in their family business; through this plan, Stephanie was sent to an [[Abstergo Industries\|Abstergo]]-funded university, where she gained degrees in medicine, biological and chemical engineering, and a post-doctoral fellowship in membrane technology. However, seeing her family's intention to work alongside them as boring, and considering other options, Stephanie deviated in her studies to research information security and network science, viewing Abstergo's work as a good idea and their greater abundance of openings in advanced technology.<ref name="ACI">''[[Assassin's Creed: Initiates]]''</ref>		Born to a couple of pharmacologists that worked in [[Beijing]], Stephanie's life was planned out carefully by her parents, with their aim being to have her study hard, qualify as a doctor and work in their family business; through this plan, Stephanie was sent to an [[Abstergo Industries\|Abstergo]]-funded university, where she gained degrees in medicine, biological and chemical engineering, and a post-doctoral fellowship in membrane technology.

	This all changed when Stephanie discovered that her father was responsible for the creation of [[New Fluoride]]. Noticing its ill effects on people all over [[China]] and how Abstergo had never been apprehended for New Fluoride's distribution in her home country, she fled to Hong Kong. Chased by Abstergo all the way, Stephanie eventually came across [[Gavin Banks]] and [[Susan Drayton]], who took her aboard the ''Altaïr II'' and recruited her into the Brotherhood.<ref name="ACI" />		This all changed when Stephanie discovered that her father was responsible for the creation of [[New Fluoride]].

	Stephanie Chiu is a character created for the multimedia project, ''[[Assassin's Creed: Initiates]]''. Her surname, Chiu, is a romanization of the Chinese family name {{wiki\|Zhao (surname)\|Zhao}}, as it is pronounced in {{wiki\|Cantonese}}, through the {{wiki\|Hong Kong Government Cantonese Romanisation\|Hong Kong government system}}. This is unusual as Stephanie is implied to be a native of Beijing whose first language would be {{wiki\|Mandarin Chinese\|Mandarin}} and whose family name in Chinese would be read in Mandarin not Cantonese. Hailing from {{wiki\|Mainland China}}, even if her native language were Cantonese, her surname would still be romanized via the {{wiki\|Pinyin}} system as though it were Mandarin because this is the standard of the People's Republic of China.

	That Stephanie's surname is Cantonese and transliterated in the Hong Kong convention might indicate an intentional effort on her part to pull away from her origins. Alternatively, it may be an attempt to make it harder to be identified through official documents written in languages that use the Latin alphabet. A third and more straightforward explanation is that she is actually born in Hong Kong~~, but she grew up~~ in Beijing ~~where her family worked~~.
