History
By 1191, Sibrand had become the first Grand Master of the newly-founded Knights Teutonic. In secret, he was also a member of the Knights Templar, subordinate to the Templar Grand Master Robert de Sablé.[1][2][3] That year, Sibrand planned a blockade of Acre's harbor in order to prevent King Richard I of England from receiving aid from overseas once the Templars initiated their plan to usurp control of the Holy Land. However, the plan never saw completion, as the increasingly-paranoid Sibrand was assassinated on his own ship by the Assassin Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad, on the orders of the Levantine Brotherhood's Mentor, Al Mualim.[2][3]
