Biography

Early life

Petruccio Auditore was a young Florentine nobleman living during the late 15th century. His father Giovanni was a banker, but was also in secret an Assassin, who planned to prepare Petruccio and his brothers for their future in the Order.[1]

However, Petruccio was born sickly. His constant illness forced his parents to take him out of school, and keep him bed-ridden for most of his life.[1]

Death and legacy

In 1476, Petruccio asked his brother, Ezio, to retrieve some feathers for him, the reason for which he kept a secret. Ezio agreed, but only if his younger brother returned to bed afterwards.[1]

The next day, Petruccio was arrested alongside his father and brother on a false charge of treason against the ruling Medici family; he was publicly executed the day after.[1]

That same night, he, Federico and Giovanni were given a proper burial by Ezio.[2]

Trivia

  • Interestingly, when viewing Uberto Alberti's database video, Petruccio can be seen hanging on the left-hand side, wearing different clothes.
  • Throughout the entire game, it is never hinted why Petruccio actually needed the feathers. But in Assassin's Creed: Renaissance, it is suggested that he was collecting them as a gift for his mother.
  • Besides Caterina Sforza's children in the Battle of Forlì DLC, Petruccio is the only non-adult to feature in Assassin's Creed II (apart from the brief memory of Ezio as a baby).
    • The main reason for this is Ubisoft's policy of not including children as part of the crowd, in order to prevent foul-minded players from killing them. [citation needed]
