- ―Checco Orsi to Caterina Sforza
Checco Orsi was a member of a noble family of Forlì, and brother to Ludovico. Bored with their life in the countryside, they started a loan-sharking business, and murdered any who didn't pay their debts.
Once, the brothers were hired by Caterina Sforza to kill her own husband, Girolamo Riario, after she found out that he was a Templar. Riario, who was already in debt to the Orsi brothers, was killed by them during a meal.
Later, Rodrigo Borgia hired them to kill Caterina and obtain the Piece of Eden, an artifact stolen from him by Ezio Auditore in Venice. The Orsis agreed and laid siege to the city of Forlì. In the process, they captured two of Caterina's children. Using the children as a distraction for Ezio, Checco attacked the Rocca Di Ravaldino, the ward in which Caterina was holding the Apple. Caterina and Niccolò Machiavelli's resistance wasn't enough to protect the Piece of Eden, and Checco took it. With Checco running off to Rodrigo Borgia, Ezio chased after him. Ezio intercepted him, however Checco, with his dying breath, stabbed Ezio in the right side of the stomach. Ezio stumbled off with the Piece of Eden, though the wound was sapping his strength. Eventually, he fell to the ground, and, before he lost consciousness, saw the Piece of Eden stolen from him by a monk with a missing finger. Caterina's guards found Ezio next to Checco's corpse.
Final Words
Checco Orsi: So...you have your prize again.
(Ezio retrieves the Piece of Eden)
Ezio: Was it worth it? So much bloodshed?
Checco Orsi: A prize of such value, it will not remain yours for long.
Ezio: We shall see.
(Ezio stabs Checco through the throat with the Hidden Blade, killing him).
Ezio: Che miserie nascono dall'avidità (What wretched things are born of greed). Requiescat in pace (Rest in peace).
Trivia
- Checco is one of the only two assassination targets in the Assassin's Creed Universe to be stabbed with the Hidden Blade while in the animus scene. The other target being Majd Addin in Assassin's Creed.
