- For the multiplayer character, see Courtesan.
The courtesans are one of the three factions of Assassin's Creed II helping the main character, Ezio, the other two being the thieves and the mercenaries. Florentine courtesans are led by Paola, while Venetian courtesans are led by Teodora Contanto.
Courtesans can work in many ways. All four can seduce a group of nearby guards, allowing Ezio to slip past, or they can hide Ezio by walking with him in a diamond formation (similar to how Altaïr blended with Scholars). Should Ezio encounter a group of guards while walking with the Courtesans, two of them will distract the guards, while the other two stay with Ezio in order to maintain the blend and stay hidden.
Courtesans cannot perform any sort of free-running, and will go down very quickly in a fight. Therefore they should be avoided when looking for assistance in combat.

Achievement
The achievement/trophy, "Red Light Addict," can be gained by spending 5000 florins on them. One group of courtesans costs 150 florins, which means approximately 34 groups have to be hired to get the achievement.
Trivia
- A glitch can be found while running around the outside of Forlì. One of the hired Courtesans becomes stuck, separated from the rest of the group, and left behind, but does not officially leave the group as when distracting guards. The remaining three courtesans will not activate any blending effects when surrounding Ezio until he approaches the lost courtesan's perimeter and again enters the 'middle' of the group.
- Should one of the courtesans in a group fall into the water, the remaining three will continue to activate the blending effect without her, indicating that the death of one courtesan is similar to when two leave the group to distract passing guards.
- Courtesans cannot be killed or grabbed by Ezio. However, you can still hurt them with your weapons.
- The appearance of Courtesans has five randomly generated options: hair, face, dress color, necklace, and sleeves.
- In Monteriggioni, after renovating the Brothel, random Courtesans appear to walk in the streets.
- Attracting attention after distracting guards with a group of Courtesans will cause the guards to attack the group and kill them.
