Biography
Early life
Very little is known about Crow's background, except that at some point, she became the leader of an Assassin cell based in London. In addition, her family history was strongly linked to the Assassins, due to her many Assassin ancestors.[1]
Obsession for Lugos
At some point, Crow tasked Jonathan Hawk to explore the memory of Accipiter, his Aleman ancestor who lived during the 3rd century and was a member of the Liberalis Circulum – an Assassin branch operating during Ancient Rome. Since the Liberalis Circulum was founded by Lugos, this mission was very important to Crow, as she was somewhat obsessed about her ancestor. Bolstered by this, she fervently tried on many occasions to contact him through the Animus, proving unsuccessful every time.[1][2]
Luckily, Crow's personal quest took a fortunate turn when Shaun Hastings, knowing of her obsession, contacted her to inform her that he had clues on Lugos' whereabouts. Indeed, while Hawk was reliving Accipiter's life, Desmond was experiencing the memory of two of his own ancestors, Aquilus and Valeria, who had worked with Accipiter on a mission concerning the Ankh of Isis. The team had even found the artifact hidden in Monteriggioni by Valeria and a holographic message of Lugos' last moments, informing his brothers that in addition to the Ankh, he had discovered another Piece of Eden. This lead corroborated with Crow's own discoveries about the Scepter of Aset, recovered by Italian fishermen in a shipwreck with a belt harboring a crow – the emblem of Lugos – and sold to an Egyptian merchant.
Indeed, minutes before Hasting's call, Crow had seen through the eyes of one of her Assassin ancestors during a session in the Animus and found that the recovered Scepter was given to the Mamluks of Egypt by the Brotherhood in the 13th century.[1][2][3]
Stella then undertook the task to find the artifact, while ordering a surprised Shaun to concentrate his team efforts exclusively on Ezio Auditore da Firenze and his Apple of Eden. Crow then called Jonathan Hawk, who was in a hospital for an artificial eye, and instructed him to go to Monteriggioni in Italy to gather all the information collected by Shaun's team and File 24 – a dossier about the Scepter – which had been already send to Desmond.[2]
Three days later, having contacted the other cells, Crow was granted permission to take the mission from Desmond Miles. Stella then gave a phone call to Desmond and told him to hand over all he had on the case to Hawk, who had just arrived at Monterriggioni. Hawk presented himself to Desmond and opened File 24, which indicated Egypt as the last place where the Sceptre had been seen. Shaun, who didn't like Crow's harsh manner, asked Jonathan before he left to tell Stella that ambition and competition were not the way of the Assassins.[2][1]
Race for the Scepter
A few days later, when Hawk had returned to London, the two other Assassins under Stella's command followed a short break in the Animus made by Hawk, the latter visiting the genetic memory of his Egyptian ancestor from the fourteenth century, Numa Al'Khamsin. But while Stella had entrusted the supervision of Hawk to Nancy, a serious incident occurred; due to his low tolerance to the Animus, Jonathan suffered a stroke and was brought directly to the emergency room.
The incident happened as the timer that Nancy had installed on the Animus had exceeded the usual 15 minutes, having deregulated unexpectedly, exposing Hawk to a period in the Animus too long for his body. Stella severely reprimanded Nancy, kicking her off the team and even threatened to consult the other cells in order to expel her from the Brotherhood.
Oblivious to Stella though, the cell's fourth member Steve was actually a mole serving the Templars. With his warning, the chairmen of Abstergo Industries also launched a search for the Scepter, with Laetitia England commissioning one of her most lethal agents, Vernon Hest, to find the artifact before the Assassins.
Trivia
- While Stella is a descendant of the Assassin Lugos – the founder of Liberalis Circulum – she has never managed to establish contact with her ancestor's memories, despite all the time she spent in the Animus.
- Crow's cell and its members seem to mirror that of Lucy Stillman's, with Stella acting as the leader, Jonathan taking on the role of the Animus subject, and Nancy and Steve being the technician and archivist respectively.
- Stella is Latin for "star."
