Jesus on the Cross, with the Shroud of Eden.

Jesus of Nazareth (7-2 BCE – 30-36 CE), also known as Jesus Christ, is one of the central figures of Christianity, which views him as the Messiah foretold in the Old Testament, believing him to be the son of God who was raised from the dead and ascended into Heaven. His most prominent work was the performing of grand miracles, mostly involving the body, and sacrificing himself to cleanse the sins of all humanity.

Jesus' miracles were granted from the powers of the Shroud, a Piece of Eden. The Templars eventually learned of the source of Christ's powers and had him crucified, with the sole purpose of gaining the Shroud. It is believed that the disciples stole the Shroud back and possibly used it to resurrect their Messiah.[1] However, this theory is likely false, due to the case of the Assassin Marcus Junius Brutus, where the Shroud proved it could not restore life, only re-animate bodies for a short period of time.[2]
