- "Ravaging the poor districts of Rome, Malfatto preys on those unfortunate enough to be caught unaware."
- ―Ubisoft Description
The Doctor (real name: Malfatto) is a multiplayer character in Assassin's Creed Brotherhood. The doctor uses a syringe as his primary weapon.
His outfit highly resembles the ones worn by doctors during the plague and appears black in the dark. His face is concealed by a mask, therefore making his true identity unknown. His outfit is different from what the doctors wear in Assassin's Creed II. The beak section of his mask is shorter than the ones worn by the doctors in Assassin's Creed II. Ubisoft said that he will make an appearance in the single player mode of Assassin's Creed Brotherhood along with the other multiplayer characters.
Unique Moves
Lethal Injection
The Doctor charges at his target and swiftly thrusts a syringe into the target's shoulder injecting poison into a vein, before the victim can recollect what has just happened his/her eyes roll back and he/she then collapses to the ground and dies silently.
Trivia
- His name, Malfatto, may derives from another word: "Malfattore" i.e "someone who does evil deeds". This is further speculated by the simple fact that the name "Malfatto" wasn't common even in the Renaissance (actually "Malfatto" is often a surname).
