Firas (unknown – 1190) was a Crusader in service of the Knights Hospitalier during the Third Crusade.
In 1190, he was stationed at the Hospital of Tyre under the command of Templar doctor Roland Napule. As one of the hospital's guards, he was assigned to the subterranean levels which largely consisted of blast furnace chambers, finery forges, and dungeons.
When the Assassin Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad attempted to infiltrate the hospital via these passages, the Crusaders were alerted to his presence after he fell from a wooden beam that lacked the structural integrity to support his weight. This allowed the Crusaders to prepare their defenses.
During the attack, Firas, alongside two other Hospitaliers and one Templar, ventured into a furnace room with puddles of liquid tar spilled on the stone floor. Unbeknownst to them, Altaïr had entered into the chamber as well, and ignited the tar by throwing torches onto it.
Firas and a fellow Hospitalier soldier were both caught in the inferno, having been standing on the puddles of tar, and were subsequently incinerated.
