The '''Captain''' (harvested from:''' [[Donato Mancini]]''') was an Animi Avatar used by [[Abstergo Industries]] to train the recruits in the [[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood|first stage]] of their [[Animi Training Program]]. His weapons consisted of a rapier and a parrying dagger.
A '''naval captain''' is the commander of a [[ship]]. While most captains serve in a nation's navy, throughout history there have also been numerous independent captains, most notably [[privateer]]s and [[Piracy|pirates]]. Sometimes, an individual may command more than just one ship and serve as the captain of an entire fleet, in which case they hold the title of '''admiral'''.

The Captain had several unique moves:

Approaching his target, the Captain unsheathes his rapier, before using his sword to slice their legs and then slash them towards the cheek. To finish off his victim, he takes a step backwards and crouches slightly in a fencing stance, before stabbing his rapier through their heart, piercing it to the hilt. While the Captain removes his sword and spins it around to remove the blood, his target's body collapses backwards as he stores away his sword.

Stalking up to his target from behind, the Captain places his left hand on their shoulder, before pulling out his sword with his fencing hand. From there, he uses his rapier to impale his victim, piercing his weapon fully through their heart and verifies their death by twisting the blade, making them twitch a final time. Afterward, the Captain pulls out his sword and lets his target's dead body slump forward to the floor.

Running over to his target, the Captain pulls out his rapier, just as he elbows them in the face. He then delivers a forceful slash across his victim's neck, before replacing his sword back into its sheath quickly, just in time to see their body spin to the floor.

Rushing up to his target from behind, the Captain pushes them onto their knees, before holding them down and removing his rapier from its scabbard. Using his blade, he shoves his sword down into the crevice of his victim's neck, with the sword piercing internal organs along the way. Now sure of their death, the Captain pulls out his rapier and sheathes it, letting his target's dead body fall forward to the ground.

Walking up to his seated target, the Captain draws his rapier from his sheath, before knocking their head back with the hilt as he slashes them across the torso. While they are slightly dazed, the Captain takes a hold of their shoulder and forcefully stabs his sword upwards through his victim's chest, impaling them halfway to the blade's hilt. Afterwards, he violently withdraws his sword from their body and stores it back into its scabbard, while his target's head slumps forward and their dead body falls from the bench.

Leaping from above, the Captain lands on his target, forcing them to the ground. He then removes his rapier from its scabbard and plunges it into his victim's neck, killing them instantly, before removing his blade and storing it away as he stands up.

This article is about the naval-based leader. You may be looking for the Animi avatar from the Training Program or the Animi avatar from the Geosimulation Workspace.

A naval captain is the commander of a ship. While most captains serve in a nation's navy, throughout history there have also been numerous independent captains, most notably privateers and pirates. Sometimes, an individual may command more than just one ship and serve as the captain of an entire fleet, in which case they hold the title of admiral.
