Nikola Tesla (10 July 1856 – 7 January 1943) was a Serbian inventor, and a mechanical and electrical engineer. Tesla planned to create a worldwide network able to transmit information and electricity to anywhere on the planet. The knowledge needed for this plan came from a Piece of Eden he had acquired.
Biography
Early life
Born in Smiljan, in the borders of modern Croatia, Tesla was one of the most important contributors to the birth of commercial electricity. He was also renowned 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 electric power systems, including the polyphase system of electrical distribution, and the AC motor, with which he helped usher in the Second Industrial Revolution.
Acquiring a Piece of Eden
According to Subject 16, Tesla found his Piece of Eden in Croatia. The Templars, most prominently Thomas Edison, opposed his ideas, as they would be a serious impediment to the Templar goals and Edison's own ideals. To this end, Edison demonstrated a series of experiments, such as the electrocution of a circus elephant, that he released as proof of Tesla's power being dangerous, causing public disapproval towards Tesla's invention. Tesla's Apple of Eden seemingly disappeared, along with some of his designs.
Working with the Assassins
Sometime later, the Assassins, including Nikolai Orelov, contacted Tesla and enlisted his help in destroying both the recently located Staff and the Templar constructed Tesla coil using his powerful 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. However, a shard of it would later be possessed by the infamous monk Rasputin.
