Prowler
- "Running in the streets, bumping into people, the target is out of breath. He knows his pursuer is here somewhere, watching him, ready to take away his life. Suddenly, he stops and looks up. There, on the rooftops, the Prowler gazes down, smiling at him. It's already too late."
- ―Ubisoft Description
The Prowler (real name: Il Lupo) is a multiplayer character in Assassin's Creed Brotherhood who wields a switchblade, one that is similar to the hidden blade of the Assassins. Despite his similarity to the Assassins, the Prowler is, as all other multiplayer characters in Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, a Templar.
Unique Moves
Headache (Low Profile, Back)
The Prowler walks up behind his target and stabs his switchblade through the back of their head, severing the spinal cord. This causes the target to briefly go rigid, before dropping to the floor.
Piercing Embrace (Low Profile, Front)
The Prowler approaches the front of his target and stabs his switchblade into the stomach of his target, while simultaneously using his other hand to pull the target further into the blade and leaning into them to insert it in further. Then, withdrawing the blade, he gently pushes the target to the floor.
(High Profile, Back)
He runs to his target, grabbing their right arm he stabs them in the back, severing their spine, he then pushes them backwards, freeing his switchblade, and sheathing it in his wrist as he watches his target spread eagle on the floor.
The Plunge of Death (Aerial Kill/High Profile, Front)
The Prowler leaps from a rooftop above, on top of his target, forcing them to the ground and plunging the switchblade into their skull. The target dies instantly.
Ripchord (Bench Kill)
The Prowler pulls the target up off of the bench and to the side with his blade, before brutally yanking the blade free, slashing them across the chest and letting them go, their body falling to the floor.
