Nikolai Orelov (Russian: Николай Орлов) was a Russian Assassin who lived during the late 19th and early 20th century.[1]
He is the protagonist of the upcoming comic entitled Assassin's Creed: The Fall. There will be three issues, each one concentrating on different periods of Orelov's life: as an apprentice Assassin, as a Master Assassin and as a veteran Assassin.
Biography
Orelov lived during the late 19th and early 20th century and operated mainly in Petrograd, Russia. During his training, he was apprenticed to a more experienced Assassin.[1]
Orelov would have at least one child and was the ancestor of the modern-day Daniel Cross.[1]
Appearance
Orelov wore a large fur coat with the traditional Assassin's hood. He wielded one Hidden Blade, a dagger, a sabre and a rifle. He wore a sash and a baldric with the Assassins' emblem on it.[1]
Trivia
- The name Orelov is most likely based on the Russian surname, Orlov (Орлов), which means: "сын орла" (syn orla), or "son of oryol" and "oryol" means "eagle". It could also come from Orel, which is Czech, Slovenian and Bulgarian for eagle. In continuation of the series' tradition of referencing the protagonist's name of each time period to that of the eagle in the Assassin's native language or some derivation from a language connected to the Assassin's heritage.
