Korkut (1467 – 13 March 1513) was the third son of Ottoman Sultan Bayezid II, elder brother of Bayezid's successor Selim, and younger brother of Ahmet.
In 1511, he was captured by Templar thugs in Bursa but was rescued by Turkish Assassins sent from Constantinople by the Mentor Ezio Auditore da Firenze.
Sometime later, he called together a meeting with the Mamluk Sultan Al-Ashraf Qansuh al-Ghawri, though this also caught the attention of the Ottoman Assassins, who investigated the assembly on the orders of Ezio.
He was popularly regarded as the least competent of the princes of Bayezid II and had little prospect of succeeding his father, leading to Selim's ascension.
