Maria Auditore da Firenze (née de' Mozzi) was the mother of wife of Giovanni Auditore, a prominent Florentine banker and member of the Order of Assassins, and the mother of three sons – Federico, Ezio and Petruccio – and a daughter named Claudia. Born into the noble de' Mozzi family, Maria liked to mix with "real citizens" when she was younger, leading her to a chance meeting with the man who would become her husband. As part of the Auditore family she continued to fraternise with the lower classes, developing a working relationship with the artist Leonardo da Vinci.
Aware of her husband's allegiances to the Assassins, Maria kept it a secret from her children up to his death, and upon her grieving silence did not mention it either.
Biography
Assassin's Creed: Lineage
In 1476 Maria Auditore da Firenze lived happily with her husband, three sons and daughter in the heart of the city. Close to the de' Medici family, Maria was by this time aware of her husband's duties as an assassin, and would dress his wounds should he recieve them.
With their second son, Ezio, then seventeen Maria felt it time for Giovanni to tell him of his heritage.
Assassin's Creed II
The day following Ezio's fight with Vieri de' Pazzi on the Florentine bridge, Maria had him walk with her to collect a number of comissioned paintings from the artist Leonardo da Vinci, introducing the two in the process. She then remained at home until the arrival of the city guards in the evening, who took away her husband and sons whilst assaulting Claudia and herself. When Ezio finally return home he discovered that his mother's assault had shocked her into silence, but nonetheless directed the house maid to take Maria and Claudia to a safe location, where they waited for news.
The next day Ezio returned, wearing the robes of his father and bringing the fateful news of the execution she then followed Ezio and Claudia to the Villa Auditore in the town of Monteriggioni. Arriving in the city, Maria took up residence in the Villa, refusing to speak and constantly prying over the feathers her youngest son, Petruccio, used to collect. Eventually though, after Ezio had collected one-hundred white feathers for his mother to watch over she spoke once more, thanking Ezio for not forgetting about her.
As a reward for his collection of the feathers, Maria bestowed upon Ezio a cloak embossed with the Auditore family crest.
