Dariâ was a member of the Persian Brotherhood of Assassins. She later joined the Italian Brotherhood in Venice during the Renaissance. She was a descendant of the Venetian explorer Marco Polo, who himself was a member of the Italian Brotherhood.
Biography
Born in Shiraz in Persia during the Timurid Empire, Dariâ was the only daughter of a female calligrapher, never knowing her father. At the age of 16, Dariâ was recruited into the Persian Brotherhood of Assassins and instantly embraced the Creed and the philosophy of the Assassins. After harsh training, Dariâ took to investigating her ancestor Marco Polo, believing she had a right to claim his heritage after it was dispersed when the last known member of the family died in 1425. Dariâ wished to be recognized as the heir to Marco so as to overcome the bias and prejudices she faced when she became an explorer.[1]
The Persian Assassins supported Dariâ and facilitated her transfer to Venice, where she settled and participated in the rebuilding of the Brotherhood. Prior to her departure from Persia, her Mentor gave her a diadem which displayed the symbol of the Persian Brotherhood.[1]
Equipment and skills
Dariâ specialized in ranged weapons, notably utilizing a unique miniature wrist-mounted crossbow under her right forearm. She also wore a wide tunic with puff sleeves and a leather breastplate made by her grandfather, a former armorer and leather tanner. She also wore various accessories on belts and straps, as well as smoke bombs, throwing knives, and locksmith tools.[1]
