Project Siren was a Templar plan to extract more information out of Subject 17, Desmond Miles. While their front company Abstergo Industries tried to locate him for the Animus Project, its overseer Warren Vidic realized that Desmond would not willingly co-operate with their plans and concocted a scheme to relocate Desmond to a seemingly safer environment.[1]
History
In 2012, Warren and his assistant Lucy Stillman decided that Desmond would have to leave the laboratory in Abstergo's Rome facility, in the eventuality that progress through his genetic memories would not be quick enough.[1] From there, Lucy would contact Shaun Hastings and Rebecca Crane, two Assassins, and take Desmond to their hideout.[2] Both of the Templars hoped that Desmond would feel more at ease amongst the Assassins, thus allowing him to access crucial memories more easily; particularly the ones that Abstergo desired. Lucy was then to contact Vidic once the Assassins had located the Apple of Eden.[1] However, this plan would ultimately fail due to interference from the Isu Juno, who knew the true danger Lucy posed. When Desmond arrived at the Colosseum Vault, Juno influenced him into killing Lucy with his Hidden Blade as soon as he touched the Apple of Eden, insisting that he "knew very little" and that she would guide him.[3]
Trivia
- The project's name was derived from the nature of the siren, winged creatures in Greek mythology that looked like attractive women on rocky outcrops. They sang so seductively that sailors were lured to their deaths by unwittingly crashing their boats on the rocks only to drown in the wreckage or be eaten if they swam and reached the sirens.
