Louis-Joseph-Charles-Amable, Comte d'Albert, Duc de Luynes (1748 – 1807) was a French aristocrat, member of the French Army, politician, and a member of the Assassin Order.
At some point before the French Revolution, d'Albert and three other Assassins were sent by their Mentor to recruit a skilled epeist and singer called La Maupin, but due to d'Albert's vanity and misogyny, a fight erupted. The three Assassins were defeated and La Maupin impaled d'Albert through the shoulder with her sword. In the report redacted by the Master Assassin Maréchal, the he stated that d'Albert was an "ass" and that no more mission of recruitment was to be assigned to him, as "no porcelain should be entrusted to a baboon".
Eventually, despite a difficult first contact, La Maupin joined the Brotherhood, with Maréchal personally training her to hone her skills in acting.
Trivia
- With Mirabeau, d'Albert is the second known Assassin to have been buried in the Panthéon.
