Biography
Early life
Álvaro was born in Mexico City in 1965 and graduated from university at the age of 17 with advanced degrees in physics and computer science, eventually developing an expertise in mechanical engineering and biology.[2]
Early years with Abstergo
Álvaro was recruited into Abstergo in 2008 to work on the Akashic Satellite Plexus. In 2009 he created the Data Dump Scanner, a proprietary technology that would eventually lead to the creation of Helix, when combined with the Animus interface.[2]
He quickly developed a rivalry with long-term Abstergo employee and fellow Templar, Dr. Warren Vidic, who he felt could always do with being "knocked down a peg";[3] following Vidic's death in 2012, Álvaro begun to cause strife within the Inner Sanctum, and he was unable to keep the Templars unified toward a common goal like Vidic had been.[2]
Head of Phoenix Project
As of 2014, he is the director of the Phoenix Project, which aims to successfully sequence a full First Civilization genome. After the death of John Standish the year before, Gramática's team analyzed his body and DNA. Through their research, Gramática found that roughly five percent of Standish's genome was pure First Civilization DNA, and decided that locating other Sages would be the most practical way to achieve his goals.[4]
In his efforts, Gramática frequently contacted Melanie Lemay, head of Abstergo Entertainment, for advice, insight and leads concerning the location of Sages, specifically their remains. Under his authorization, Abstergo Entertainment's Robert Fraser began analyzing the genetic memories of Arno Dorian.[4]
Gramática also instructed Lemay on how to deal with intruders into Abstergo Entertainment's Helix network using the company's proprietary intrusion detection system. When implemented, the system sent intruders into hippocampal shock, or even death in some cases. However, this defense was bypassed by a Helix initiate who saved their trapped comrades.[4]
Quest for the Shroud
In 2015, Gramática worked with Isabelle Ardant in order to recover a Shroud of Eden. He had one such Shroud in his possession and was able to trigger its healing function by shooting himself while wearing it, causing a Precursor to briefly possess him. Isabelle later assigned Violet da Costa of Sigma Team to work with Gramática, who had her wear the Shroud and shot her, causing a Precursor named Consus to possess her. Gramática conversed Precursor but the conversation came to an end when Violet's wound was healed. With Violet's consent, Gramática shot her again.[4]
Personality and traits
Álvaro Gramática was noted as being a genius from the day he was born. This, coupled with his expertise in mechanical engineering and biology made him attractive as a potential employee to Abstergo.
Following his appointment as director of the Phoenix Project in 2014, Álvaro become completely focused on his goal of fully sequencing a First Civilization genome, and hoped to use every resource available to Abstergo in this mission. This caused some strife with his fellow Templars, and Álvaro was unable to keep the Inner Sanctum unified towards a common goal, like his former rival, Dr. Warren Vidic had been.
Gramática was more concerned with his work than human relationships, and was noted as often abandoning his wife and three children for long periods of time while immersed in his work.
He was brilliant at Sudoku.[2]
