"You have seen things that no other man alive has seen, been given messages intended for the Order that must never fall into the hands of our enemies. Don't be so selfish."
―Sergei to Nikolai after the latter refused to return to Russia, 1926.[src]

Sergei Voronin[note 1] (Russian: Сергей Воронин; died 1926) was a member of the Russian Brotherhood of Assassins and a scientist at an Assassin laboratory in Protvino. He was Galina Voronina's grandfather.

Biography

Assassin scientist

In 1911, Sergei recruited a woman into the Brotherhood, who later became his wife. In December 1917, they joined a community of scientists, revolutionaries, and Assassins at a facility in Protvino provided to the Brotherhood by the Russian Academy of Sciences.[2]

In September 1918, Segei met with Nikolai Orelov in Moscow, after the latter had retrieved a Precursor box from the Ipatiev House in Yekaterinburg, where Tsar Nicholas II and his family had been executed by the Templars. Nikolai had managed to rescue Grand Duchess Anastasia Nikolaevna from the massacre and brought her with him in the hopes the Assassins would find a cure to her condition, as Anastasia had been imprinted with the memories of the Chinese Assassin Shao Jun.[3]

Sergei meeting with Nikolai and Anastasia

After receiving the box from Nikolai, Sergei revealed that he could not help Anastasia, but he believed the Mentor might. When Nikolai insisted that he come along, Sergei ordered him to head to the local Assassin bureau to make a report about his mission, and assured him that no harm would befall Anastasia. Believing the girl was in safe hands, Nikolai allowed her to leave with Sergei and went to the bureau.[3]

However, rather than help Anastasia, the Assassins ended up performing dangerous experiments on her, wishing to extract Shao Jun's memories from her mind. After learning about this, Nikolai betrayed the Brotherhood and helped Anastasia escape from their facility near Spasskaya Tower.[4]

Tracking Orelov

"Under orders from our hidden leader, Sergei left our compound to hunt down Nikolai Orelov, the defector, and reclaim the Shard of Eden in his possession. It was a move born of desperation, and we have not heard from him in two years. I fear the worst."
―Sergei's wife, 1928[src]

In 1926, Sergei was tasked by the Mentor – hiding from persecution by the Templar-influenced Stalinist regime – to track down Nikolai, who had fled Russia with his family and a shard of the Staff of Eden that had been destroyed in the Tunguska explosion.[5]

Sergei's death

With help from Assassins within the Bureau of Investigation, Sergei tracked Nikolai to Connecticut, United States, in January 1926. Arriving at Nikolai's cabin in the woods, Sergei found his son Innokenti and asked where his father was. Hearing voices, Nikolai walked out of the cabin, and Sergei urged Nikolai to come back to Russia with him. Upon hearing Nikolai's refusal, Sergei expressed his disappointment at Nikolai's decision to keep the information from his vision at Tunguska to himself, stating that it must never fall into the hands of the Templars.[6]

Sergei then grabbed Innokenti, calling Nikolai greedy for having taken the shard of the Staff with him, and wondered if the Assassins should not take something small in return while holding a knife up to Innokenti's face. However, he was caught off-guard when Nikolai disarmed him with a frying pan, and was promptly knocked to the ground. He was then strangled to death by Nikolai, whilst futily attempting to stop his former comrade.[6]

Notes

  1. Because Galina's mother had the surname Voronina, it is very likely that it was her father's surname. This would indicate that Sergei's last name is "Voronin", the masculine iteration of Medeya's surname.
