Accipiter
Accipiter was an Alaman general, and a cousin of the Assassin Aquilus.
In 259, Accipiter was asked by his uncle Lucius, also an Assassin, to retrieve the Ankh, an ancient artifact. He arranged a meeting with Aquilus to give him the artifact, but soon found himself at war with a small army of Romans. After the Alamans had won the war, Accipiter found Aquilus unconscious inside the Roman general's tent. He took Aquilus with him to his home to tend to his wounds.
When Aquilus regained consciousness, Accipiter told him about the battle that had taken place, and the next morning the two traveled a short distance towards Aquilus' destination. They stopped near a river, where Accipiter gave Aquilus the artifact. After Aquilus requested for the Alamans to save his hometown of Lugdunum during the wars, the two went their separate ways and Accipiter returned home. The same year, Accipiter fulfilled Aquilus' request and the Alamans spared Lugdunum.
