Biography
Early life
The son of Farim, Swami was a weak-minded Assassin apprentice who refused to learn the proper ways of the Order. He was incompetent and thought himself to be better than the other apprentices, when in reality, he was one of the worst.
Coup d'etat
Circa 1225,Abbas Sofian, a high-ranking Assassin, planned a coup d'état to take over the Assassin Order from its temporary leader, Malik Al-Sayf, while the Order's Master, Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad was absent. Swami joined Abbas in the plan, and he was ordered to kill Sef Ibn-La'Ahad, the son of the Master. Moments before doing so, he told Sef that Sef's own father ordered his death. After successfully killing Sef, Abbas then placed the murder weapon in Malik's bed, framing him, and testified that he heard Malik and Sef arguing that same day. Malik was consequently thrown into prison, and a council was formed to rule the Order - with Abbas at its head.
Return of the Mentor
Circa 1227, Altaïr, his wife, and son returned to Masyaf from Mongolia after having successfully assassinated Genghis Khan, and Swami was sent to greet them upon their arrival. Meeting Altaïr and his family, Swami was asked why they weren't greeted by Rauf as requested. Swami replied that he had died of fever, but Altaïr had his doubts. Swami also informed Altaïr of the presence of the council, and Malik's imprisonment. He also told them that Sef had fled to Alamut, and Altaïr's remaining son Darim left Masyaf to retrieve him.
The next day, Altaïr went to meet the council with his wife Maria, but Swami intercepted their path and led the way. Altaïr met the council, and noticed that the council was made of the most weak-minded of the Order. During an argument between Abbas and Altaïr, he was led to believe that Sef was killed by Malik, henceforth his imprisonment.
Death
After having saved Malik from prison and hearing the truth about his son's death, Altaïr angrily went to the council. In his absence, Swami was quickly ordered to kill Malik in Altaïr's quarters and beheaded him, putting his head in a burlap sack. Altaïr met with Abbas, and they were later joined by Swami, who gave Abbas the burlap sack. Abbas looked in it, then showed it to Altaïr. After Abbas was done questioning Altaïr, he demanded that the Apple of Eden be given to him. Altaïr took it out of his robes and held it out, in an attempt to show the other Assassins that Abbas only craved to use the power of the Apple to corrupt and control them, as Al Mualim did.
When Swami went to retrieve the Apple, he told Altaïr that before he killed Sef, he told him that his own father ordered his death. Altaïr became enraged, so much so he immediately began using the Apple to make Swami draw his own dagger and move it up to cut his own throat. Maria jumped between them, telling her husband he let his anger get the best of him. Altaïr relented and released his control of Swami's, only for Swami to immediately murder Maria, still standing between them. Altaïr promptly stabbed Swami through the bottom of his jaw and so slew him.
Trivia
- Strangely,Swami killed himself in the novel by touching the Apple of Eden but in Assassin's Creed: Revelations, Altaïr used the Apple on Swami.
