Biography

Betrayal of Assassin Order

Before the events of Assassin's Creed, Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad came back to Masyaf to find that his mentor, Al Mualim, had been captured and some of his fellow Assassins murdered.

Before the events occurred, the Crusader was a secret Templar, who had entered into the Assassins before his betrayal, though he stated that he was not a traitor from the start for he "could not betray those who he never truly loved." He then told Altaïr that taking any steps forwards would result in the death of his mentor, and closed the gates to the fortress.

In order to get to the Templar, Altaïr had to find a different route to infiltrate the Assassin fortress, choosing to climb up some wooden scaffolding until he reached a ledge on the wall. After climbing up to the wall, he assassinated more Templars as he navigated the fortress walls. He then air-assassinated the Crusader from a small ledge.

Personality and ethics

The Crusader believed the Creed, but thought that he may not be wise enough to understand it; he suspected that he was too wise "to believe such rubbish".

Appearance

He wears black armor with silver lining and chainmail suit with a helmet that shows the Templar cross. His name is currently unknown, though his weapon is a two-handed sword.

Unique Moves

(Low Profile, Front)

The Crusader casually walks up to his target and flicks his head forward hitting the target on the bridge of the nose. This makes the target flinch and hold their face, in this time the Crusader draws his sword and, holding it with two hands, slashes it through the targets neck severing the spinal chord at the neck, killing the unfortunate victim instantly.

(Low Profile, Back)

The Crusader quickly walks behind his victim and draws his sword. He then lances his blade through the victims back, the shocked victim then looks down at the blade that has pierced right through their body as the Crusader pulls his blade out of the victims body and quickly sheaths his sword.

(High Profile, Front)

(High Profile, Back)

(Bench Kill)

The Crusader grabs his seated target's foot and drags them off the bench, until their head rests against it.
