You cannot know anything. Only suspect.

This article contains content from pre-release sources that may or may not be reflective of canon upon release. This article therefore likely contains spoilers.

Where are the paintings?

This article is in need of more images and/or better quality pictures from Assassin's Creed: Mirage in order to achieve a higher status. You can help the Assassin's Creed Wiki by uploading better images on this page.

The skill tree is an in-game user interface that allows the player to upgrade Basim Ibn Ishaq's weapons and abilities during his time training to become a Master Assassin in 9th century Baghdad. The skills are assigned to one of 3 trees, Phantom, Trickster, and Predator,[1] represented by a scorpion, a spider, and an eagle, respectively. Unlike the trees used in previous installments of the Assassin's Creed series, progression was linear and story-based rather than dependent on accumulating experience points.[2][3]

Behind the scenes

Each of the images for the skill categories utilize the anachronistic Diwani style of Islamic calligraphy developed in the later 16th century Ottoman Empire during the reign of Sultan Suleiman I. The scorpion is an excerpt from an old proverb[4] that reads « لدغ العقارب لم يكن لعّلامة », or "Scorpions sting not out of hostility."[5] The spider reads « بنى بيت العنكبوت على وهن », or "The spider built a feeble and frail house",[6] and is based on the forty-first āyah in the Qur'an's twenty-ninth surah of Al-Ankabut (The Spider), which translated reads in full "The parable of those who take protectors other than Allah is that of a spider spinning a shelter. And the flimsiest of all shelters is certainly that of a spider, if only they knew."[7] In contrast to the previous quotes of Arabic origin, the eagle is a slight change to the phrase "We work in the dark to serve the light" often spoken at an Assassin apprentice's initiation as it reads « ثم من الظلام تخرج نحو النور », or "And out of the darkness, you will come out to the light".[8]
