Markos was a member of the Cypriot resistance against the Knights Templar, who aided Altaïr while he was dealing with Templars in Kyrenia.
Biography
Markos was a foot soldier for the resistance. He first met the Mentor of the Levantine Assassins, Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad in around September 1191 after he saved his hostage, Maria Thorpe from pirates. Markos kept Maria safe for Altaïr, as he had to find and meet with the resistance leader, Barnabas. Markos took Maria with him and his men, as they patrolled Kyrenia's ports, until they were attacked by pirates. Altaïr returned and rescued them, and then had Markos bring Maria to the resistance safehouse. After seeing that they reached the safehouse and after learning about the man who had put a bounty on his and Maria's heads, Moloch "The Bull", he left to kill the brute in Kantara Castle.
While Altaïr was gone, the safehouse was attacked and Maria was taken by Moloch's men, which Markos told Altaïr when he returned. Markos also told Altaïr of a "Dark Oracle" who was telling the Templars about the resistance, and Altaïr quickly left for Buffavento Castle to silence her. Finally, Markos worked with Altaïr as he learned about his last targets in Kyrenia, the Templar twins Shalim and Shahar, whom he killed in Saint Hilarion Castle. When Altaïr returned from the castle, Markos shared the good news; that the ports were finally emptying of Templar ships, though they seemed to be returning to Limassol, which meant that so did Altaïr.
In 1193, Altaïr married Maria in Limassol - in order to express his gratitude to the people of Cyprus, who offered that the island be used as an Assassin base - and Markos was a guest of honor at the ceremony.
Trivia
- Markos looks and dresses similar to a vigilante model from the first Assassin's Creed.
