A wanted poster of Ezio initiated by the Pazzi.
"I've seen posters all across the district. Tearing them down will help the city forget your face."
―Paola, referring to the posters.[src]

Wanted posters were printed signs found in cities that featured the face of the Assassin Ezio Auditore da Firenze, demanding for his immediate capture.

Ezio first encountered them after the execution of his family. The posters prominently displayed the Pazzi family emblem and promised awards of 50,000 florins to anyone who killed or captured the Assassin, once he committed socially unacceptable behavior.

By tearing down wanted posters within cities, Ezio quickly learned to avoid the presence of guards while doing so, who were often alerted once they detected his actions.
