Papal arquebusier in Rome, 1503.

The arquebusiers were firearm-wielding soldiers who served and protected the pontiff during their tenure.

In 1499, armored arquebusiers under the command of Cesare Borgia, son of Pope Alexander VI, participated in the assault on Monteriggioni; one arquebusier managed to wound Ezio Auditore da Firenze in the shoulder during the latter stages of the assault.[1] In 1503, the arquebusier continued to serve under Cesare, keeping watch over a Papal parade in Rome. At least one arquebusier spotted an approaching Ezio Auditore, but was killed by another Assassin before firing a shot. Arquebusiers will also use their firearm as a melee weapon if Ezio gets to close, by using it to hit or block Ezio and his attacks. [2]
