Madonna Solari
Madonna Solari (? - 1500) was the former owner of the Rosa in Fiore in Rome.
For a time, she aided the Assassins in their fight against the Borgia, but after a while, she became lazy, taking preference to attending parties instead of helping, and she also began taking bribes from Templar priests and clergymen to divulge information about the Assassins.[1]
In 1500, she was taken captive by Cento Occhi slave traders under the order of Cesare Borgia, who promised to release her for 2,500 florins. Ezio Auditore da Firenze, recently arrived in Rome, gathered the money and went to the slave traders' ship, moored at Tiber Island. However, the slave traders did not keep their promise, and one of them slit Madonna Solari's throat, forcing Ezio to kill them and retrieve his money.
Claudia Auditore da Firenze and her mother Maria then took over ownership of Rosa in Fiore when he returned with news of her demise.
However, after her death, the Solari's brother, Santino began campaigning for ownership of the Rosa in Fiore and it's courtesans, until Ezio was tipped off about his actions by a courtesan. He found Santino beating up a courtesan, he stopped him immediately, knocked him out and dumped him near the Pantheon, calling him a liar. Humiliated, Santino's campaign failed, and Claudia and Maria kept ownership of the brothel.[1]
