Salaì

Gian Giacomo Caprotti (Born 1480), commonly known as Salaì, was Leonardo da Vinci's most famous apprentice and most likely his lover.

In 1506, Ezio Auditore da Firenze found him gambling in La Volpe Addormentata in the Antico district of Rome. Ezio began to lead him back to Leonardo's workshop in the Centro district, but they were attacked by a group of Hermeticists.

After defeating the Hermeticists, Ezio followed Salaì back to Leonardo's workshop, taking an alternate route to avoid any other Hermeticists. They returned to find the workshop ransacked and Leonardo missing. It was Salaì who spotted Leonardo's writing on the floor, and told Ezio where to find the portraits with Leonardo's research hidden on them.

Salaì also helped Ezio to examine Leonardo's paintings and to recreate of the map to the temple.
