The Footpad

"Cutting through groups of people, he moves towards his target as silent and deadly as a snake. Quickly, he rushes to his victim, brandishes his two knives and plants them into flesh, as if they were fangs. The target fails, the crowd screams, but the Footpad has already vanished."

―Ubisoft description.

The Footpad is a multiplayer character in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood. He uses a pair of daggers that resemble Trench Knives .

Trivia

• "Footpad" is an old-fashioned word for Thief, but was replaced by the term "Mugger" in the late 18th century.
• It is interesting to note that, in the trailer showing the Footpad, he is seen perhaps stealing something from the Barber's waist, before becoming the target of the chase; not unlike the Pickpockets from Assassin's Creed II.
• His daggers resemble trench knives, designed for battle inside trenches during World War I.
