Biography

After Fiora Cavazza and Baltasar de Silva had studied the Assassins for some time, they tried to mimic their techniques and 'create' their own Assassin. They trained Il Lupo to master everything they knew about the Assassins and he was later sent on missions by Cesare Borgia himself.

Some time later, however, Fiora was betrayed by Cesare and she joined forces with the Assassins. To eliminate any damage made to the Assassin Order, Fiora planned to eliminate Il Lupo. She met with him at their usual rendezvous and said Cesare had assigned him to eliminate a target on a boat out in the water. Il Lupo turned towards the boat, his back facing Fiora. Fiora slit Il Lupo's back with a poisoned weapon, though Il Lupo wouldn't yield. He resisted, but this was a vain effort as the poison quickly starting showing off its effects and Il Lupo succumbed.

Il Lupo appears in the multiplayer of Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, under the title of The Prowler.
