Biography
Rise to power
When Savonarola took control of Florence using the Apple, he assigned nine men as his lieutenants. Each of them had his own task. Most of these duties were assigned to get the citizens to follow Savonarola willingly. Soon after his appointment as lieutenant, the nobleman managed to take control of the market district, where he often stated that people with power should not be questioned.
Death
Ezio Auditore da Firenze found the Nobleman on a rooftop, looking down towards the streets below. Upon sighting Ezio, he claimed that his actions were 'curing' Florence of its sickness, and that it would be unwise for Ezio to interfere. He then shouted for the guards in an attempt to give himself time to flee to Savonarola. Ezio chased after him and quickly silenced him before he could reach his destination.
Final Words
- Nobleman: I was a victim! It's not my fault!
- Ezio: No. You made a choice.
- Nobleman: He charmed me. With that... thing.
- Ezio: Only because you allowed it. Lo faccio per il popolo... (I do this for the people...) Requiescat in pace. (Rest in peace.)
