Historicity

It doesn't have to based on Richard I though, and nowhere does it resemble him. It can simply just be a lieutenant by Ubisoft for no particular reason, like the other lieutenants that aren't based on ingame or mythological characters. XOdeyssusx (talk) 14:58, March 21, 2019 (UTC)

Neither do Artemis/Athena lieutenants resemble the images/statues of the goddesses, so stating resemblance (or lack thereof) as basis for anything is...questionable, imo. Same goes for the lieutenant Odysseus: not much in the way of resemblance to the mural we have of him. Sadelyrate (siniath) 15:05, March 21, 2019 (UTC)

Whilst I feel that the avatars Artemis and Odysseus are fairly clear-cut references to the historical Greek individuals (and gods) of the same names, it's quite apparent to me that "Lionheart" has no connection to Richard I of England. Not only do the two characters not look alike, but Richard I is such a minor character in AC-lore that there's no reason why he would warrant a character avatar. --Jasca Ducato (talk | contributions) 15:48, March 21, 2019 (UTC)

It's just pure random coincidence that said lieutenant bears the epithet most associated with said king, and which he is best known by? Got it. Sadelyrate (siniath) 16:24, March 21, 2019 (UTC)
