Peter and the Staff.

Biography

Simon Peter was a leader of the early Roman Catholic Church, and was one of the disciples of Jesus Christ. He was featured prominently in the New Testament Gospels and the Acts of the Apostles.

Peter came into possession of the Staff of Eden, which he used to become the first leader of the Christian religion and the first Pope of the Roman Catholic religion.[1]

Peter was crucified upside down in the Circus of Nero in Rome, around 67 AD. The Basilica di San Pietro was built over the site to commemorate him.

Trivia

  • In Assassin's Creed: Project Legacy, Peter was one of the four martyred Christian saints represented in the Martyrs mnemonic set. The artwork for this set's mnemonics alluded to each saint's manner of martyrdom; Peter's mnemonic accordingly depicted an inverted cross.[2]
