Nikola Tesla (10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) was a Serbian inventor, and a mechanical and electrical engineer. He was born in Smiljani, Croatia. He was one of the most important contributors to the birth of commercial electricity, and is best known for his many revolutionary developments in the field of electromagnetism in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Tesla's patents and theoretical work formed the basis of modern alternating current (AC) electric power systems, including the polyphase system of electrical distribution, and the AC motor, with which he helped usher in the Second Industrial Revolution.
Tesla planned to create a worldwide network able to transmit information and free electricity to anywhere on the planet, the knowledge of which came from a Piece of Eden he had acquired. According to Subject 16, Tesla found the Piece of Eden in Croatia. The Templars, most prominently Thomas Edison, opposed this idea, as it would be an opposition to the Templar goal and Edison's ideals. To this end, Edison demonstrated a series of experiments that he released as proof that Tesla power was dangerous, causing public disapproval of Tesla's invention. Tesla's Apple of Eden seemingly disappeared along with some of his designs.
Later on, the Assassins, including Nikolai Orelov, contacted Tesla and enlisted his help in destroying the recently located Staff and Templar built Tesla coil using his particle beam weapon. He fired the machine from America with the words "Rot in Hell Thomas". The resulting explosion became known as the Tunguska explosion, which, according to Orelov, destroyed the Staff completely, or possibly blasted the Piece of Eden miles away.
