| '''Robert de Sable''', was the last of the nine [[Assassination Targets|assassination targets]] assigned by [[Al Mualim]] to [[Altaïr]]. He was a lieutenant for [[Richard the Lionheart]] and [[Grand Master of the Knights Templar|Grand Master]] of the [[Knights Templar]] during the [[Third Crusade]].

| ==History==
| |
| Born into a powerful family, Robert de Sable was immersed from birth into nobility. Though events during De Sable's life are difficult to pin down, at some point he became lord and ruler of Briollay, France. Subsequently, Robert de Sable entered into the order of Knights Templar and reigned as their "Grand Master" in 1191. During the Third Crusade, de Sable and the Knights Templar laid siege to the city of [[Acre]], which soon fell. Throughout August 1191, they also recaptured many fortresses and cities along the Palestinian coast, which had been lost previously.

| |
| Grand Master of the Knights Templar, Robert follows a goal similar to the [[Assassin]]s, in that he is attempting to end the war in the Holy Land. [[Al Mualim]] has no objections against him ending the Crusade, but is against the way that Robert De Sable attempts to do so. The Assassins would have people find peace themselves, but the Templar would force their "peace" onto others and attempt to control them. Altaïr first encounters Robert de Sable at the beginning of the game in [[Search for the Apple|Solomon's Temple]], where he has apparently discovered the Ark of the Covenant. However, this is later revealed to be another artifact known as the [[First Apple|Piece of Eden]], which the Templar wish to use to control the minds of the people, effectively controlling those who once opposed the one who held the Piece. Believing that God didn't exist, he planned to bring peace and make the Holy Land a utopia, using the Piece of Eden. However, since the Assassins had it, he used brutal tactics to control the people as he planned to overthrow King Richard and destroy the Assassins. When his lieutenants were assassinated by Altaïr, he convinced [[Richard the Lionheart|King Richard]] to ally with [[Saladin]] in order to destroy the Assassins. Later, Altaïr tried to convince the King of Robert's evil plot, however Richard didn't know who to trust, and thus let God decide. Altaïr and Robert had to fight to the death, but it was Altaïr who proved to Richard that God was on the side of the Assassins as he finally killed Robert.

| | |
| '''Altaïr:''' ''It's done, then. Your schemes, like you, are put to rest.''
| |
| | |
| '''Robert:''' ''(laughing coldly) You know nothing of schemes. You are but a puppet. He betrayed you, boy, just as he betrayed me.''
| |
| | |
| '''Altaïr:''' ''Speak sense, [[Templars|Templar]], or not at all!''
| |
| | |
| '''Robert:''' ''Nine men he sent you to kill, yes? The nine who guarded the [[Sixth Apple|treasure]]'s secret?''
| |
| | |
| '''Altaïr:''' ''What of it?''
| |
| | |
| '''Robert:''' ''It wasn't nine who found the treasure, Assassin; not nine, but ten!''
| |
| | |
| '''Altaïr:''' ''A tenth? None may live who carry the secret. Give me his name!''
| |
| | |
| '''Robert:''' ''Oh, but you know him well, and I doubt very much you'd take his life as willingly as you've taken mine.''
| |
| | |
| '''Altaïr:''' ''Who?! ''
| |
| | |
| '''Robert:''' ''It is your master, [[Al Mualim]].''
| |
| | |
| '''Altaïr:''' ''But he is not a Templar!''
| |
| | |
| '''Robert:''' ''Did you never wonder how it is he knew so much? Where to find us, how many we numbered, what we aspire to attain?''
| |
| | |
| '''Altaïr:''' ''He is the master of the [[Assassins]]!''
| |
| | |
| '''Robert:''' ''Oui, master of lies. You and I are just two more pawns in his grand game. And now, with my death, only you remain. Do you think he'll let you live, knowing what you do?''
| |
| | |
| '''Altaïr:''' ''I have no interest in the treasure!''
| |
| | |
| '''Robert:''' ''Ah, but he does. The only difference between your master and I is that he did not want to share. Ironic, isn't it, that I, your greatest enemy, kept you safe from harm? But now you've taken my life... and in the process, ended your own!''

| ==Trivia==
| |
| *In the game, Robert was in his mid 30's when he was killed by Altaïr. In real life, he was relatively old when he died of natural causes. Robert died in the Holy Land on 23 September 1193.
