Wei Yu was a Chinese Assassin living during the 3rd century BC.
Biography
Wei Yu was a member of the Chinese Assassin branch during the Qin Dynasty, which was ruled by Emperor Qin Shi Huang, a tyrant who oppressed the people of China. In order to protect the people, the land had to be freed of the Emperor.[1]
On September 10, 210 BC, during one of the Emperor's Eastern China tours, Wei Yu struck the Emperor with his spear, killing him.[1]
Legacy
By the time of the Renaissance, Wei Yu's sarcophagus was moved to San Gimignano, Italy, on the top floor of the Torre Grossa. Fellow Assassin Ezio Auditore da Firenze would explore his tomb and take the hidden seal from inside the sarcophagus, which would help him to obtain Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad's armor.[1]
Trivia
- Wei Yu's belt looks much like a tied-on martial arts belt, but functions as a way to disguise the Assassin symbol.
