Biography
Born during the Renaissance, Beatriz de Navarrete was a spanish noblewoman from Barcelona with a total lust for life that had no sense of discrimination. From her early teens, she craved more than her vapid, proper noble life could provide. She actualy chased adventure, learning how to hunt and swordfighting from her brothers, to the disapproval of her parents.
Beatriz loved to sneak out of her family's villa to roam the street of Barcelona and enjoy the city's nightlife. During those nights out, Beatriz befriended all manner of people commoners, Moors and Christians alike.
On one such night of revels with her friends, she made the acquaintance of Sayyid al-Abbas, a Moorish Assassin also living in the city and the two fell madly in love.
Mortified by her actions, Beatriz's parents attempted to force her into an arranged marriage with a captain of the Spanish army. Her parents warned her that if she did not comply and fully reform, she would be cut off financially and disowned. Beatriz did not comply, and instead decided to run away with her Assassin lover to pursue a more kindred life with the Brotherhood.
