| The '''Subjects''' were people selected and acquired by [[Abstergo Industries]] for use in their experiments with [[genetic memory]] and the [[Animus]]. To date, there have been at least seventeen subjects, many of whom were eliminated by Abstergo Industries once their usefulness was finished.

| ===Subject 4===
| |
| [[File:Daniel Cross-The Fall1.jpg|thumb|Subject 4, Daniel Cross.]]
| |
| {{main|Daniel Cross}}
| |
| Subject 4, or Daniel Cross, was mentioned in a letter dated September, 1985, in which an individual signed "W.V." ([[Warren Vidic]]) reported on making a prototype [[Piece of Eden]] replica, and its use on Subject 4 between their Animus sessions.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| During his imprisonment, Cross not only had his memories explored, but was embedded with an impulse that would force him to kill [[the Mentor]] if he was ever presented with the opportunity. In the year 2000, Cross acted upon this impulse and succeeded in his objective.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: The Fall">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Fall]]'' <small>Issue #3</small></ref>

| ===Subject 12===
| |
| Subject 12 was the direct descendant of an individual involved in (or subjected to) [[the Philadelphia Project]]; an event wherein the ''[[wikipedia:USS Eldridge (DE-173)#Philadelphia Experiment|USS Eldridge]]'' manifested itself in a future state for approximately eighteen minutes.<ref name="Assassin's Creed">''[[Assassin's Creed]]''</ref>

| | |
| ===Subject 15===
| |
| {{main|Subject 15}}
| |
| Subject 15 was female and pregnant. She suffered the [[Bleeding effect]] by seeing memories of her ancestors and other people from different time periods. She also experienced "memory-within-memory" patterns due to being pregnant, as the memories of the fetus's father conflicted with Subject 15's own ancestors' memories.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood" /> After Lucy discovered some adverse effects of the Animus on the subject, she e-mailed Warren Vidic, warning him of said effects. Warren told Lucy that the experiments on Subject 15 would stop, and then sent a disposal unit and had [[James Morse]] file an "accident" report.<ref>http://abstergoindustries.com/portal/</ref>

| ===Subject 16===
| |
| [[File:Ending--article_image.jpg|thumb|Subject 16.]]
| |
| {{main|Subject 16}}
| |
| Subject 16 was, as his moniker suggests, the sixteenth individual to undergo Abstergo's experiments. As a result of the Bleeding effect, Subject 16 went mad and used his own blood to write [[cryptic messages]] throughout the [[Abstergo laboratory]] and his sleeping quarters.<ref name="Assassin's Creed" />
| |
| | |
| Like his successor, Subject 16 was a direct descendant of [[Ezio Auditore da Firenze]].<ref name="Assassin's Creed II">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref> During his time at Abstergo Industries, 16 managed to hack into the Animus, and placed several hidden [[rifts]] throughout the Animus' projection of Ezio's genetic memories. These puzzles were later located by Subject 17, who, upon solving them, was granted access to one of 16's own memories.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood" />
| |
| | |
| ===Subject 17===
| |
| [[File:Desmond2.png|thumb|Subject 17, Desmond Miles.]]
| |
| {{main|Desmond Miles}}
| |
| Subject 17, or Desmond Miles, was brought to Abstergo against his will, and was threatened with a coma and death if he did not participate in Warren Vidic's experiments. Upon agreeing to the experiment, he then explored the memories of his ancestor [[Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad]].<ref name="Assassin's Creed" /> Later, upon his escape to the [[Assassins]] [[hideout]], he also explored the memories of his ancestor Ezio Auditore da Firenze, in order to exploit the Bleeding effect, and learn the skills necessary to become a true Assassin.<ref name="Assassin's Creed II" />
