History
The first known human possessor of the First Apple is Napoleon Bonaparte,[1] a major force in the French Revolution, a military and political leader of France who later became Emperor of France under the name Napoleon I. How he came to possess the Apple, how long he had it, and whether he lost it or gave it away is unknown. The next owner is Harry Houdini, a Hungarian-American magician and escapologist, stunt performer, actor and film producer. He used to the Apple to do stunts that some even to this day are considered "impossible".[2] While the official story is that Houdini died from peritonitis from a ruptured appendix, Subject 16's Glyphs in Assassin's Creed II indicate that Houdini had been killed by Templar agents (probably J. Gordon Whitehead), and they then took possession of the Apple. The Apple is then later used in the Kennedy Assassination[4] to cause the "Phantom on the Hill" effect to help make it more difficult to prosecute Oswald later on, and to disguise the true intentions of the assassination from later examination.
Trivia
- In Assassin's Creed: Brotherhood, the Apple's glow has changed from a golden glow to a tealish-blue glow.
