Leonardo da Vinci (April 15, 1452 – May 2, 1519) was an Italian polymath, scientist, mathematician, engineer, inventor, anatomist, painter, sculptor, architect, botanist, musician and writer in the Renaissance.
Assassin's Creed II
Leonardo da Vinci is the best friend of Ezio. He will be his personal engineer, much like Q in the James Bond series, making various gadgets, items, and weapons for Ezio. He constructs weapons such as Hidden Gun, and the dual Hidden Blades from the Codex pages written by Altaïr as well as the Flying Machine, ...etc. He will also decode the codex pages, granting the player an extra synchronization bar slot for every four pages decoded.
Leonardo was a student in Verrocchio’s workshop until 1476 in Florence. In reality, there is little historical information on the real Leonardo's life between 1476 and 1481, giving the game developers the chance to supplement it as follows: the Auditore family patronized Leonardo to open his own workshop. Ezio met him in his workshop and became a very close friend.
