The insignia of the Assassin Order, though varying slightly over different time periods and countries, holds essentially the same shape and style. In Assassin's Creed, the insignia is used to mark the entrances of city Bureaus, and is seen on the many banners decorating the fortress of Masyaf. Within Assassin's Creed II, it is used on the mechanisms within the many Assassin's tombs, and on the banners and walls of Monteriggioni. Additionally, it is worn openly on the clothes of certain known Assassins, such as Ezio Auditore da Firenze and Nikolai Orelov.
