- ―Shalim to his bodyguards, as they visited a brothel.[src]
Shalim was a member of the Templar Order and the second-in-command to Armand Bouchart. He was also the son of Moloch "the Bull", and the twin brother of Shahar.
Biography
During Altaïr's search for the Limassol Archives, Shalim was spied on to find the location of Maria Thorpe. However, being no use to the Master Assassin, Shalim went to a brothel with some of his bodyguards, harassing the citizens and merchants of Kyrenia beforehand to gather some money for their visit. There, Shalim took one of the prostitutes and went back to his castle, telling his bodyguards to get more women for him when they were done; one of the whom would turn out to be Maria.
Investigation
Later, one of the monks that Altaïr had conversed with told him that he suffered from hearing all of the sins that Shalim committed, as he frequently came to make confessions. When Altaïr asked about Shalim's attitude, the monk replied that "To oppose him would mean death", and when he inquired about the Archives, he received no answer, as a commotion built outside.
The source of this commotion erupted once Shahar had taken a place on an orator's stand and broadcast the details of Armand Bouchart's plans to the people of Kyrenia. At first, Altaïr mistook Shalim instead of Shahar, since he was unaware at the time that the two were twins.
Then, after his speech, Shahar headed back to Saint Hilarion Castle, where he disappeared into. Altaïr was soon given his own chance to enter the castle, as the bodyguards of Shalim came to bring more women – Maria being one of them – and the Assassin sneaked in with them.
Death
Altaïr soon found out the truth that Shalim and Shahar were twins, as he faced both of them inside the castle, alone; Maria had fled, leaving only Altaïr to fight against the two skilled swordsmen. Eventually, Shalim and Shahar were both defeated, and the Assassin left once more to find Maria.
Characteristics and personality
Shalim was a young nobleman who was identical in appearance and dress to his brother, Shahar. However, he differed from his twin in regards to his behavior, as he was known for his rude, fierce and violent lifestyle, and his appetite for women and wine. He also didn't seem to resemble his father in his beliefs either, as Moloch was known as a religious zealot.
