Leandros (died 1511) was a member of the Templar Order, and the Captain of a small Byzantine faction.
Biography
By 1511, Leandros' Templar forces had overrun the Assassins' fortress in Masyaf, Syria, and Leandros himself had acquired one of the Seals of Altaïr. When the Grand Master of the Assassin Order Ezio Auditore da Firenze visited the city in the same year, Leandros' soldiers attacked him. Despite suffering many losses, they eventually managed to capture him.[1]
Leandros' forces later led the Assassin up to a tower to be executed by hanging, and Leandros personally tied the noose around Ezio's neck. However, as soon as he did, Ezio lunged back at him and managed to escape.[1]
Later, Leandros was assassinated by Ezio on one of Masyaf's rooftops, and the Assassin retrieved the Seal of Altaïr from his body.[2]
Trivia
- When Ezio assassinates Leandros in the demo, he uses his right hidden blade to do so. However, Ezio did not have the double blade during the event, which is evident when he unsheathes a single hidden blade during the gameplay demo.
