====Journey in Spain====
''Assassin's Creed'' is a franchise that has exploded in popularity and size since its creation back in 2007. Following the success of the first numbered sequel –Assassin's Creed II – in 2009 the number of games, comics, books, and movies set in the ''Assassin's Creed'' universe has grown exponentially, and so to has the requirement for this wiki to catalogue and record these entries. For eight years now, the preferred method of doing so has been the eraicon.

[[File:CoromboEzio.jpg|thumb|250px|left|Ezio meeting Christopher Columbus]]
While trying to locate Savonarola, Ezio continued to accomplish missions for the Brotherhood. Between 1488 and 1491, he went to Florence to recruit in the Brotherhood the Ghost of Florence [[Girolamo da Lucca]], who accept the offer. Ezio also became a close friend with the Roman Assassin [[Lucas Bellini]].<ref name="Rebellion">''[[Assassin's Creed: Rebellion]]''</ref>{{Cite|May 2019}}


When the eraicons were first introduced in 2010, the series had a significantly smaller number of entires under its belt, and as a result the inclusion of these icons at the top of an article did not cause much aesthetic disruption, but as the series progressed and more and more articles required an ever increasing number of eraicons be present, it became clear that the current system was no longer fit for purpose and resultantly, after much discussion, it was agreed that a change was needed.
In 1491, Ezio was told by an acquaintance to meet Antonio at the Thieves Guild in Venice. Upon arriving there, Ezio found Antonio accompanied by another man, [[Luis de Santángel]]. Luis was looking for a good "killer" who could oversee a meeting involving Luis' friend Christopher Columbus, but Ezio expressed no interest.<ref name="Discovery">''[[Assassin's Creed II: Discovery]]''</ref>


==The change==
However, when Ezio heard that Rodrigo Borgia was also involved in the meeting, he rushed to Columbus' location, finding out that it was a trap. However, he managed to save Columbus, who explained that Rodrigo was interested in his plans to sail west. Soon afterwards, Ezio met with Antonio again, who told him to go see both Luis and Columbus in the gardens district.<ref name="Discovery"/>
Gone are the days where our in-universe articles openly advertise the real-world series entries from which their information is sourced. Instead, the wikia's articles will now only feature in-universe category icons that aim to improve the look of our articles and promote readership of additional articles to the site's visitors.


The new icons were designed to be broad in scope so as to encompass as many applicable articles as possible, but specific enough to ensure that readers will know what to expect by clicking on the icons. As such, numerous articles will likely require the use of multiple icons. Certain articles covering real world topics, like ''[[Assassin's Creed II]]'', ''[[Assassin's Creed: Origins]]'', or ''[[Assassin's Creed: Last Descendants]]'' will retain use of the existing icons series entry icons.
They then told him that the Templars were in possession of Columbus' atlas, which featured the journey's route. Ezio quickly recovered the atlas and brought it back to Columbus and Luis. Luis informed Ezio of the presence of Spanish Assassins, who were held captive by the Spanish Inquisitor General, [[Tomás de Torquemada]]. Feeling it was his duty to rescue them, Ezio temporarily diverged from his goal to reclaim the Apple of Eden and set out to Spain, but not before Antonio gave him the names of two of his contacts.<ref name="Discovery"/> Ezio left Italy with other Assassins as Girolamo and Lucas to help their Spanish brothers.<ref name="Rebellion"/>


No longer will [[Assassins]] look like this:
[[File:Acd23.png|thumb|250px|Ezio fighting a Spanish guard]]
After arriving in Spain and briefly losing his sword to a thief, Ezio met with Antonio's contacts, and was directed to the local Thieves Guild. When he arrived there, however, he found that it was empty, only to be ambushed by the Inquisitors' men.<ref name="Discovery"/>

After making his escape through the sewers, Ezio met [[Raphael Sánchez]], who revealed himself to be an Assassin. Raphael informed Ezio of the location of the first captured Assassin, and Ezio rushed to save him. Right before the Assassin could be burned by the Inquisitors, Ezio killed all the guards and freed him.<ref name="Discovery"/>

But instead, it will look like this:
After Ezio's return, Raphael revealed that it was [[Gaspar Martínez]] who had been ordered to capture the Assassins by Torquemada. Ezio located Gaspar and found him, Torquemada, and a guard surrounding a captured Assassin.<ref name="Discovery"/>


{{Era|Organizations|Assassins|Good}}
Torquemada revealed to the captured Assassin - and indirectly to Ezio - that Rodrigo Borgia had ordered him to capture Assassins in Spain, because they were "non-believers". After the guard killed the Assassin, the group disbanded, and Gaspar was left unguarded.


==The new icons==
Ezio then met with him and asked him what he knew of the Templars, but Gaspar feigned ignorance and said that they "went away two centuries ago". He fell silently to Ezio's blade, and Ezio acquired a list of names of six other captured Assassins. After freeing the first man on the list, Ezio took him back to Raphael, and informed the latter of the existence of the list. However, all the remaining Assassins were located in [[Zaragoza]].<ref name="Discovery"/>

===Multiple icons===
[[File:EzioTorquemada.jpg|thumb|250px|Ezio standing before Torquemada]]
On occassion an article might meet the criteria for two or more eraicons. In such circumstances more than one icon can be used, alphabetically, to ensure that the article is accurately covered. For example:
Once again, Ezio planned to return to Italy, but was disturbed by the Templars. He was forced to fight off the Templars to defend Luis, and was informed that Raphael had been captured.


* "[[Horse]]" will require <nowiki>{{Era|Animals|Transportation}}</nowiki>

* "[[Apples of Eden]]" will require <nowiki>{{Era|Technology|Weapons|Isu}}</nowiki>
* "[[Observatory]]" will require <nowiki>{{Era|Landmarks|Technology|Isu}}</nowiki>


:'''Note: Both "Apples of Eden" and "Observatory" still require their existing Isu eraicon.'''
Ezio returned to Raphael and Luis, and said that he did not believe Torquemada was a Templar himself, but only blindly followed Rodrigo Borgia's false preaching. Ezio ultimately left for Italy to resume his quest to recover the Apple of Eden, and told Luis and Raphael to inform him of Columbus' journey to find the New World should he return.<ref name="Discovery"/>


===Allegiance icons===
====Bonfire of the Vanities====
For individuals or subjects that hold an allegiance to a particular body, such as the [[Assassins]], [[Templars]], [[Abstergo]], [[Instruments of the First Will]], [[Hidden Ones]], [[Order of the Ancients]], [[Hermeticists]], or the [[Isu]], the relevant eraicon should also be displayed at ''the end'' of the sequence. For example:
{{Quote|There is no book or teacher to give you the answers, to show you the way. Choose your own way! Do not follow me, or anyone else.|Ezio after Savonarola's death.|Assassin's Creed II}}
[[File:Florentine Fiasco 2.png|thumb|250px|left|Ezio and Niccolò discussing Savonarola]]
Having returned from Spain, Ezio immediately continued his quest to find the Apple of Eden. He returned to his hometown of Florence in 1494, and bumped into a monk who was running from Borgia guards, saying they were asking about "apples".

* "[[How Grand, Master Kenway!]]" will require <nowiki>{{Era|Memories|AC4}}</nowikI>
 
==The old icons==
Under the revamp the existing eraicons will be removed from almost all in-universe articles. They will, however, remain on articles covering the relevant realworld media. For example:
 
*''[[Assassin's Creed: Origins]]'', ''[[The Hidden Ones (DLC)]]'', and ''''[[The Curse of the Pharaohs]]'' will require <nowiki>{{Era|ACO|Realworld}}</nowiki>
 
As mentioned in the Memories section, these realworld icons will also remain on mission-specific articles. These article will, invariably, require use of the Realworld icon also.
 
==What happens now?==
Over the next few weeks you will notice all of our articles gradually adopting the new format. Any user is welcome to help and can find a complete list of the relevant eraicons [[Template:Era|here]]. If at any stage you are confused or unsure as to which icon to use, then leave a comment below and somebody will advise.

An abbot there identified Ezio's as the monk Stefano da Bagnone's killer, and fled. He was intercepted and, once convinced that he was not about to die, the monk gave Ezio the name of the nine fingered monk: Girolamo Savonarola.[1][2][note 1] [citation needed]

While trying to locate Savonarola, Ezio continued to accomplish missions for the Brotherhood. Between 1488 and 1491, he went to Florence to recruit in the Brotherhood the Ghost of Florence Girolamo da Lucca, who accept the offer. Ezio also became a close friend with the Roman Assassin Lucas Bellini.[3] [citation needed]

Ezio fighting a Spanish guard

After arriving in Spain and briefly losing his sword to a thief, Ezio met with Antonio's contacts, and was directed to the local Thieves Guild. When he arrived there, however, he found that it was empty, only to be ambushed by the Inquisitors' men.[4]

After making his escape through the sewers, Ezio met Raphael Sánchez, who revealed himself to be an Assassin. Raphael informed Ezio of the location of the first captured Assassin, and Ezio rushed to save him. Right before the Assassin could be burned by the Inquisitors, Ezio killed all the guards and freed him.[4]
