"You are a novice, a child once more. As you were on the day you first joined our order. I am offering you a chance at redemption... you'll earn your way back into the Brotherhood. For now you are to become a student once again."
―Al Mualim to Altaïr after the Siege of Masyaf

Novice is the lowest rank in the Assassins' Order. They have no use of their Short Blade, Longsword, Throwing Knives, or Hidden Blade. They are also unable to use the abilities Counter Attack, Counter Grab, Defense Break, Dodge, or Climb Walls. For the player, the base Synchronization is lowest when Altaïr is first demoted to Novice rank. The only things they can do is eavesdrop, pickpocket, or use violence to intimidate.

He charges him with nine - unbeknownst to him - Templar targets, the assassination of which will allow him to regain his master rank.
