The Italian Assassins were the Italian branch of Assassins, existing since their formation during the later half of the 13th century.
Primarily led by the Auditore family, the Italian Assassins were mainly involved with taking down the corrupt Borgia family, the ruling body of the Italian Templars.
History
Foundation
In 1257, the tradesmen Niccolò and Maffeo Polo were invited to stay at the Assassins' fortress of Masyaf by Darim Ibn-La'Ahad, the son of Altaïr Ibn-La'Ahad. Being trained into becoming Assassins themselves, Altaïr entrusted them with creating some Assassins Guilds and guarding Altaïr's Codex. When the Mongols eventually attacked, the Polo brothers left Masyaf[1] towards their home in Constantinople, where they were successful in creating a guild[1] before journeying back to Italy.[2]
