Parisian Brotherhood of Assassins
The French Assassins were a branch of Assassins located in France.
In the early 16th century, a French Assassin was captured by Templars working for the Borgia. Italian Assassins sent from Rome by Ezio Auditore da Firenze were able to receive information from corrupted ministers about the Assassin's whereabouts. The Italian Assassins rescued the French Assassin from the manor he was held in, but eventually succumbed to his wounds.[1][2]
In 1511, King Louis XII became tired of Marseille's threats of secession, motivated by the French Assassins, and ordered his army to banish all Assassins from the city. Aided by Ottoman Assassins sent from Constantinople by Ezio Auditore da Firenze, the Assassins hindered the army's efforts, though without violence.[3]
