Herald
Heralds are men who tell the populations of cities about recent news, laws, taxes, etc. They came about due to the lack of an effective means of information transfer, and were precursors to today's communication system.
In Assassin's Creed II, if Ezio commits crimes, the heralds will begin to tell people to beware of a mysterious man. Ezio can bribe these heralds with 500 florins to decrease his notoriety by 50%.
