Leonardo was a student in Verrocchio’s workshop until 1476 in Florence. In reality, there is little historical information on the real Leonardo's life between 1476 and 1481, giving the game developers the chance to supplement it as follows: the Auditore family patronized Leonardo to open his own workshop. Ezio met him in his workshop and became a very close friend.

List of Hidden Blade upgrades:

  • Hidden Blade (1)
  • Hidden Blade (2)
  • Poison Blade
  • Hidden Gun

  • All of Leonardo's modifications on previously existing assassin gear are designs created by Altaïr. Leonardo just follows the designs detailed in Altaïr's codex, which only he and Giovanni Auditore can decipher and translate.
