The '''Italian Assassins''' were the [[Italy|Italian]] branch of [[Assassins]], existing since their formation during the later half of the 13th century.
 
Primarily led by the [[House of Auditore|Auditore family]], the Italian Assassins were mainly involved with taking down the corrupt [[House of Borgia|Borgia family]], the ruling body of the [[Italian Templars]].
 
==History==
===Foundation===
In 1257, the tradesmen [[Niccolò Polo|Niccolò]] and [[Maffeo Polo]] were invited to stay at the Assassins' fortress of [[Masyaf]] by [[Darim Ibn-La'Ahad]], the son of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad. Being trained into becoming Assassins themselves, Altaïr entrusted them with creating some [[Assassins Guilds]] and guarding Altaïr's [[Codex]]. When the [[Mongols]] eventually attacked, the Polo brothers left Masyaf<ref name="ACTSC">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Secret Crusade]]''</ref> towards their home in Constantinople, where they were successful in creating a [[Constantinople Assassins Guild|guild]]<ref name="ACTSC"/> before journeying back to [[Italy]].<ref name="ACE">''[[Assassin's Creed Encyclopedia]]''</ref>
 
===Formation of the Auditore===
During the Polo brothers' escape, a Mongol raiding party took possession of the Codex.<ref name="The Secret Crusade">''[[Assassin's Creed: The Secret Crusade]]''</ref> Years later, the Codex was passed back into the possession of the Polo's when Niccolò's son, [[Marco Polo|Marco]], retrieved it from the court of [[Genghis Khan]]. Marco in turn handed it to the Assassin [[Dante Alighieri]], who passed it into the safe-keeping of his apprentice, [[Domenico Auditore]].<ref name="Assassin's Creed II">''[[Assassin's Creed II]]''</ref>
 
After Dante's death in 1321, Domenico set sail to Spain with his family. Midway through the voyage, due to an incoming storm, they stopped at Otranto Harbor, where the ship was invaded by drunken Templar-hired pirates in the dead of night. Hiding with his family in the hold while the pirates scoured the ship, Domenico broke the Codex into pages, and placed them into various boxes and containers, and shortly after was thrown overboard by the pirates, along with his son and the corpse of his dead wife. <ref name="Assassin's Creed II"/>
 
Returning to Italy, Domenico settled in [[Firenze]] with his son. Studying classics, music and architecture, Domenico adopted the name ''"Auditore"'' to impersonate as a Fiorentine noble while training his son in the Assassin's Creed. He subsequently purchased and renovated what would become the [[Villa Auditore]] in [[Monteriggioni]], which served for a long time as the Italian's guild Assassin stronghold.<ref name="Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood database entry">''[[Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood]]'' - Villa Auditore Database Entry</ref>
