- "I'm sorry, were you hoping for a confession?"
- ―Vieri's last words
Vieri de' Pazzi (1454 - 1478) was a member of Florentine nobility during the Italian Renaissance.[1]
Biography
Early life
Vieri was born somewhere in Tuscan region, Italy as the son of Francesco de' Pazzi. He was extremely spoiled by his father and thought that everything he wanted, he would get.[1]
One day, he met with Cristina Vespucci in front of her house, asking her why she "hadn't spread her legs yet." When Cristina refused to become intimate with Vieri, the latter attempted to sexually assault her, but was beaten up by Ezio Auditore da Firenze, who had followed Cristina to her house.[2]
As a Templar
Some time prior to 1476, Vieri joined the Templar Order, an organization of which his entire family was likely a part of.[1]
In 1476, Vieri and Ezio, who had become rivals, met on the Ponte Vecchio in Florence, where they and their friends had a street fight. Vieri himself didn't join the fight, and fled when he realized that he had lost the fight.[1]
Vieri and Ezio met again when the latter was escaping Florence with his mother and sister after having assassinated Uberto Alberti. Vieri tried to kill the three by sending his armed thugs to attack them. However, the three were rescued by Mario Auditore and his men, after which Vieri fled.[1]
Death
Vieri met with his father, uncle and Rodrigo Borgia (the Grand Master of the Templar Order) in San Gimignano in 1477 to discuss the Pazzi Conspiracy. As soon as the four of them went their separate ways, Mario Auditore and his mercenaries attacked Vieri's men. Vieri fled to the city walls, where he was assassinated by Ezio Auditore da Firenze.[1]
Personality and characteristics
Vieri was a cruel man who liked nothing more than to win, in any variety of contests. He would call for competitions against other noble families, which were always rigged for his victory. In the rare occasions where he would lose, he would invite the winner and his family to dinner and subsequently poison them by serving them a meal "to die for."
He would do anything to get what he wanted, such as rape, hiring thugs to fight for him, and outright kill people who stood in his way. He was also a coward, and would run away when his plans failed.
As revealed in the letter which Antonio Maffei had before his death, Vieri had always sought attention from his father, wanting his father to recognize his abilities and devotion to the Templars. Antonio also guessed that his cruel personality might be due to Francesco's lack of attention for him.
Final words
Ezio: What are you and your allies planning? Is this what my father discovered? Is this why he was killed?
Vieri: I'm sorry, were you hoping for a confession?
- (outside the Animus scene)
Ezio: Pezzo di merda! Vorrei solo che avessi di piu! Hai avuto la fine che meritavi! Spero che bru'- (Piece of shit! I only wish you'd suffered more! You met the fate you deserved! I hope yo-)
Mario: Enough, Ezio! Show some respect.
Ezio: Respect? After all that's happened? Do you think he would have shown either of us such kindness?
Mario: You are not Vieri. Do not become him. (to Vieri's corpse) Che la morte ti dia la pace che cercavi. (May death provide the peace you sought) Requiescat in Pace. (Rest in peace.)
Trivia
- Strangely, Vieri's birth year is listed to be 1454, whereas his father's is 1444. There is likely an error in the database with either one or both of their ages.
- In most cutscenes Vieri speaks in an Italian accent but sometimes, like when he ambushed Ezio and his family on their way to Monteriggioni, he says "My condolences for the loss of your father and brothers!" in a more American accent.
- Vieri will make a reappearance in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, appearing in some of the "Broken Heart" Cristina Repressed Memories.
