Nicolaus conversing with Ezio Auditore.

Nicolaus Copernicus (Italian: Niccolò Copernico), was a Polish Renaissance astronomer, mathematician and priest. He was the first person to present a correct model of Heliocentrism. He appears in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood in a sequence of missions exclusive to the PlayStation 3.^[1]

During Ezio Auditore da Firenze's time in Rome, Copernicus visited the Vatican and studied a lunar eclipse that happened in the 1500s. He went from square to square in Rome, teaching the public and talking to them about mathematics and science. The Vatican heard of Copernicus' scientific preaching and decided that all scientists had to be stopped because they taught that science was more important than the church. It was up to Ezio to save Copernicus and the other scholars. After delivering letters to Copernicus' fellow scholars and transporting him to safety, Ezio saved Copernicus from guards sent to kill him and therefore Copernicus was able to continue his research without worry.^[2]
