Aliyah Kahn is an English card shark who was a former dropout of the London School of Economics. She is the estranged daughter of the Templar Fahad Kahn, who abandoned Aliyah's mother when he discovered she was pregnant. Aliyah is a descendent of Omar Khaled, an assassin during the 17th and 18th century.

Biography

In 2019, Aliyah met the Assassin Gavin Banks while playing poker in an attempt to earn enough money to pay back her investors in the Crypto market. Having lost all of her chips to him, Aliyah sought out Gavin after the match and demanded to know his identity. Gavin gave her an address, telling her to find it if she wished to know more.

The next day, Aliyah was contacted by the school, learning that she was given the chance to return to the institution, her funds having been paid by an "alumni."

Personality and traits

Aliyah suffered from claustrophobia, a condition which she had inherited from her father. After her stint in the animus, however, Aliyah noted that she no longer felt claustrophobic in dark spaces nor was she afraid of the dark, even saying she felt in her element. This was due to Omar's blindness, so she had gotten used to fighting without seeing.
