Biography[edit | edit source]
In 1191, after learning of William's operations in Acre, Isembart came to the city intending to serve as his bodyguard.[1] However, the Levantine Assassins, having recovered a note stating his intentions from another knight, intercepted and killed him at the city docks. Before dying, Isembart taunted the Assassins, stating that William was already aware of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's plan to assassinate him.[2]
Personality and traits[edit | edit source]

Skills and equipment[edit | edit source]
Isembart fought with a standard great sword with sufficient combat prowess. Although he was able to hold his own against an Assassin, he could not deal a killing blow and in turn was killed himself.[2]
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
