I wanted to ask you something. Which is... what's your name? This article title is conjecture. Although the article subject is canon, no official name for it has been given. |

History
Search for the Ankh
In 1348, the Templars traveled through Germany under the guise of the Brothers of the Cross, promising protection from the plague. The Assassin Lukas Zurburg suspected that they were after the Ankh, a Piece of Eden said to be located somewhere in Central Europe.[1]
In 1350, both the Brothers of the Cross and Lukas Zurburg vanished mysteriously, never to be seen again.[1]
Modern times
World War I
In 1914, during World War I, the Germans and British called a truce on Christmas. As the British and German troops fraternized, Erich Albert, a German General and Templar, took two medics, one German and one British, into his camp, hoping they could help one of his wounded soldiers. The German medic returned to the festivities after the successful operation, but the British medic remained behind. The medic noticed Albert's ring, which had a red cross on it. Albert offered to trade it with him, but when the medic raised his hands to show that he had no ring in return, Albert noticed, to his shock, the Assassin burn mark on the medic's ring finger. The medic immediately impaled Albert with his Hidden Blade, killing him.[2]
Starting World War II
In the late 1930s, Adolf Hitler, an associate of the Templars, began to take over political control over Germany. After having assumed full control, Hitler used an Apple of Eden to form Nazi Germany and hypnotize the population to join his cause. With this new-found support, Hitler began to declare "war" on Germany's neighboring countries, quickly conquering them. A worldwide war - World War II - soon erupted, but the entire war was a Templar plot to keep the people under the Order's control.[3]
While the entire war was overseen by the Templars, the world was split between two forces. On one side of the war stood the Axis, primarily led by Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Hideki Tojo. On the other side stood the Allied forces, led by the Franklin D. Roosevelt, Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin; the Big Three.[3]
Die Glocke
In 1942, the Templars started development of a device called Die Glocke, which they hid by using the German atomic project as a front. The development was overseen by the Templar Gero Kramer, the Nazi general in charge of the "Uranprojekt", and Nikola Tesla in Vemork, a Norwegian hydroelectric plant. That year, Eddie Gorm, a British spy who had infiltrated the SS by pretending to be a defector, blew his cover in an attempt to learn more about the project and had to flee.[4]
On 27 February 1943, Eddie Gorm, now a member of the British Assassins, was parachuted in Vemork and infiltrated the plant to stop the Templars from finishing their secret weapon. However, the Templars captured Eddie and put him into a very early prototype of the Animus, powered by an Apple of Eden. Because his grandson Maxime Gorm was reliving his memories through the Animus at the same time, there was a defect in synchronization and Eddie's consciousness was switched with Maxime's and he woke up in the 21th century.[4]
End of the War
On 30 April 1945, Hitler shot his own double inside his Führerbunker to make the people believe he had died, while the real Hitler planned to take the Apple of Eden and meet with Churchill. However, an Assassin had been biding his time outside the Führerbunker, and assassinated Hitler before the latter could make the meeting.[3]
