The Barber.

The Barber (real name: Baltasar de Silva) is a multiplayer character in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, who uses a sharp razor as his primary weapon. Ubisoft stated that he will make an appearance in the single player mode of Brotherhood along with the other multiplayer characters.

In Project Legacy it is revealed that he partnered with Fiora Cavazza to investigate the assassins. Though he failed to tail his prey he was able to observe his technique, clothing, and hidden blade and took notes eagerly.

Unique moves

The Straight Shave

The barber strikes his target's stomach, causing the target to fall to his/her knees. He then holds their chin, causing the neck to extend, takes out his razor and slices the target's throat. The target then falls to the ground, dead.

The Cut-Throat Razor

The barber fluidly side steps in front of his target as he delivers a lethal slash with his razor to the neck.

The Double Swipe

As he walks towards his target, the barber swiftly pulls out his razor and delivers a double slice to the neck, effectively ending their life.

Trivia

• The barber bears a certain resemblance to Johnny Depp's portrayal of Sweeney Todd, the Demon Barber of Fleet Street. They both kill people with razors, and have black hair with streaks of white in them.
• He was originally called the Butcher.
• His surname, "de Silva," means "of the forest," which is possibly a reason for his emerald green apparel.
• He also bears a striking resemblance to Gangs of New Yorks' Bill "The Butcher" Cutting.
