Officials were minor assassination targets during the Renaissance who falsely claimed to have witnessed crimes committed by the Assassins and testified against them.
If Ezio Auditore da Firenze committed an illegal act in an Italian city, officials, who were respected members of society, would accept Templar bribes and begin to falsely declare that they had personally witnessed him committing those acts.[1][2]
As his notoriety grew, Ezio would often seek out officials and assassinate them to silence their testimonies. However, most of the officials throughout Italy were paranoid and would flee upon sight of the Assassin, unless he was blending with nearby civilians.[1][2]
In Constantinople, during the 16th century, officials would stay and combat Ezio should they spot him, and were always accompanied by a pair of Byzantine militia.[3]
Trivia
- Officials always carried some currency, which could be looted from their bodies after killing them. However, they rarely possessed anything else.
- Officials in Constantinople wore the same clothes as bankers.
