"Brother Ristoro vowed a life of piety and poverty, but practiced neither."
―Ubisoft Description

The Priest (real name: Brother Ristoro) is a multiplayer character available in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood who, despite his religious vows, is described as a paranoid and dangerous man. He uses a holy blade as his weapon, which, as seen in the Beta, has a blade that is able to retract into the hilt. It was stated by Ubisoft that he will make an appearance in the single player mode in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood as well, along with the other multiplayer characters.

In Project Legacy, Ristoro is revealed to be an agent of the Borgia. He often produces various writs from the church for Cesare and is known to frequent brothels, including the Rosa in Fiore, where he is said to prefer the services of Fiora Cavazza.

Unique Moves

The Sacrificial Strike in action.

Sacrificial Strike

If performed from behind the target, the Priest will run up and dig his dagger into the victim's upper back, causing them to go limp and fall to the ground. The move is reminiscent of human sacrificial rites throughout the ancient world, such as those of the Mayan and Aztec.

If the move is performed while the target is facing the Priest, he will either kick the target's stomach, causing them to bend down, and then deal a strike to the victim's vertebra, or simply thrust the dagger into his targets abdomen, killing them instantly.

A similar move is performed by Ezio Auditore if he attacks an unarmed enemy with a short blade.

Trivia

  • Ristoro is Italian for "restoration" or "renovation," possibly in reference to the Templar's mission.
