The rank of Master Assassin was one of the highest obtainable within the Assassin's Order.
In 1191, Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad held the position before being demoted to novice following his failure beneath Solomon's Temple, but eventually regained it in time for his duels with Robert de Sable and Al Mualim[1]. One of his descendants, Ezio Auditore da Firenze, also obtained the rank, in 1499[2].
A Master Assassin was presumed to have reached the peak of his learning as an assassin; the rank garnered a large amount of respect from other members within the Order, and indicated individuals who posses uncommon skill and talent in both the arts of stealth and assassination. A Master Assassin was meant to embody the Creed; they will never harm an innocent, always hide in plain sight, and never compromise the Brotherhood[1].
Attire
Upon obtaining the rank, a Master Assassin was allowed to customise their attire. While they still possessed the beak-like design upon the hood, their robes were generally longer, forming a bird-like "tail" that fluttered whenever they perform a leap of faith or stood on a ledge. The color of their robes remained white, although they had the option of wearing black robes if they progressed to the final rank within the Order: Grand Master[3].
