Parachutes are tools featured in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, with the purpose of breaking Ezio Auditore da Firenze's fall from a height. Aside from using it to slow his fall, Ezio can use the parachute to maneuver through the air, and land on horses. It can also be used to perform air assassinations on people. The parachute is square-shaped, and bears a closer resemblance to modern-day paragliders than parachutes, both in its appearance and maneuverability. The parachute is another invention of Leonardo da Vinci. Once all of Leonardo's war machines have been destroyed, Leonardo will present Ezio with the parachutes.
To use parachutes, you must buy them from a tailor, and then make yourself unarmed. Then, use high profile and you should be able to use them as you jump.
Deploying a parachute while leaping off the Castel Sant'Angelo will earn the player the Fly Like An Eagle achievement/trophy.
Trivia
- In real life Adrian Nicholas, a British skydiver, took the design of Leonardo da Vinci's pyramidal parachute and successfully tested it in 2000. [citation needed]
- Parachutes are single-use items, and Ezio can only carry a certain amount of them at a time. He is able to carry a maximum of 15 parachutes at a time.
- Tailors also supply larger Bags to increase the maximum number of Parachutes Ezio can carry.
