Murat Bin Husn (2 May 1474 – unknown) was an Ottoman Janissary. At age 11, Murat's parents signed him up for the imperial army in hopes of a better life, and in a few years Murat had become a respected leader in the Janissary army.
Murat was also a member of the Ottoman Brotherhood of Assassins.
Biography
At some point before 1492, Murat met Aleksei Zima, an Orthodox priest and a disillusioned member of the Templar Order, whom Murat convinced to join the Brotherhood and become their informator within the Byzantine Templars' ranks.[1]
Recognizing his unbreakable will, the Sultan rewarded him with the armor of Ishak Pasha, which some believed held magical powers. Murat hid the armor in a tomb underneath the Hagia Sofia, and renovated the Great Chain to protect the city.[2]
A few months later, Assassin Ezio Auditore da Firenze infiltrated Constantinople, stole the armor, and destroyed the chain. Fearing for their lives, Murat and his family fled from the city.[2]
