In 2014, Bibeau was asked to help Robert Fraser, an Abstergo analyst who was experiencing the symptoms of the Bleeding Effect while relieving the memories of [[Assassin]] [[Arno Dorian]] during [[French Revolution]]. Bibeau worried Fraser would be unable to keep a professional distance from his subject and recommended any outside activity related to Fraser's assignment be curtailed.

As the symptoms became worse, Fraser becoming more and more convinced that he was Arno with each seances in the Animus, his supervisor, [[Aidan St. Claire]], stressed that Fraser should speak to Bibeau whenever he became overwhelmed.


Taking St. Claire's advice, Fraser began corresponding with Bibeau, to whom he confessed that he had broken up with Anna, his girlfriend; Arno's memories had caused him to fall in love with Élise instead. Flashbacks of the [[Bastille]] plagued him on Bastille Day, with Fraser begging Bibeau to take him off the case. She believed they needed to continue their work regardless, but offered to supply him with medication that could help. Bibeau also recommended Fraser write whenever he felt the Bleeding Effect set in, in an effort to separate himself from Arno.

As Fraser continued his report, he began to hallucinate vividly, at one point believing himself to be in [[Paris]] during the Belle Époque. Once this came to light, he was made to take a medical leave of absence. On 29 July, Fraser reapplied for the project, claiming that the week spent in the recovery center with Bibeau had worked wonders for his mental health.

Following his return, Fraser set out to destroy all documentation on Arno's life, deleting the files on his computer and burning the hard copies in St. Claire's office. The remaining documents that the Templars managed to salvage, seemed to indicate that Bibeau was the brain behind the arsonist so she was seized by the Templars. In contact with [[Bishop]], Fraser also leaked the unsequenced memories to the Assassins, but was caught thereafter and terminated.

Biography

Treating Fraser

In 2014, Bibeau was asked to do a psychiatric evaluation of Robert Fraser, an Abstergo analyst who was believed to be suffering from the Bleeding Effect while reliving the memories of Arno Dorian, an Assassin during the French Revolution. She concluded that Fraser could have difficulties maintaining a professional distance from his subject going forward and recommended any outside activity related to the analyst's assignment be curtailed.[1]

Aidan St. Claire, Fraser's supervisor, would subsequently make it so that Fraser could visit Bibeau whenever the project became too overwhelming. The two entered into a correspondence, with Fraser confessing that he had broken up with Anna, his girlfriend; Arno's memories had caused him to fall in love with Élise instead.[1]

Flashbacks of the Bastille plagued him on Bastille Day, with Fraser begging Bibeau to take him off the case. She believed they needed to continue their work regardless, but offered to supply him with medication that could help. Bibeau also recommended Fraser write whenever he felt the Bleeding Effect set in, in an effort to separate himself from Arno.[1]

In spite of this, the symptoms continued and Fraser even began to hallucinate; once this came to light, he was made to take a medical leave of absence. He subsquently spent a week in the recovery center with Bibeau, during which she instructed him to destroy all documentation on Arno's life and leak the unsequenced memories to the Assassins. Although Fraser succeeded in this task, he was caught and terminated shortly thereafter.[1]

However, Bibeau pleaded misguided ignorance and, thanks to her numerous friends in Abstergo who vouched for her, successfully convinced the Templars that she did what she did because she truly believed it was the right thing to do at the time. She was subsequently offered to join their cause and became a loyal member of the Templar Order.[2]

Looking for the Trident

In 2016, Bibeau welcomed a group of four teenagers to The Aerie, after they were captured by a Templar strike team while using a stolen Animus. With the help of her superior, Isaiah, Bibeau tried to ease the captives' worries, in the hopes that they would reveal what they had discovered about the Trident of Eden.[3]

Deciding honesty was the best policy, the two Templars told the teenagers about their Order, stressing the benevolence of their organization. They then told them that because of their ancestry, Sean, Grace, David and Natalya were now a crucial part of their efforts to find the Piece of Eden. Bibeau also revealed to them that Monroe, their missing leader, was one of her former patients, whom she had forbidden from reliving the memories of his father to work through the numerous abuses he endured during his chilhood.[3]

In this way, they managed to convince Sean and Grace, who revealed the location of the "faith prong", a segment of the Trident owned by Ulysses S. Grant until his death. At the same time, an informant in Abstergo called "Rothenburg", who had been inactive for some time, contacted the Assassins that had rescued the other two teenagers, Owen and Javier.

Later, Bibeau told Natalya, who was wary of the Templars, that they had contacted their parents to let them know they were safe and that Abstergo would offer a generous compensation for their help. She also told the teenagers that the second part of the Trident was somewhere in China.[3]
