Tahira (unknown – 38 BCE) was one of the first members of the Hidden Ones, the organization that would later transform into the Assassin Brotherhood. An old acquaintance of the Hidden Ones' founder, the Medjay Bayek, she served as a protector for the Egyptian wildlife around the Nile area.

After the defeat of the Order of the Ancients in Egypt, Tahira demonstrated her commitment to Bayek by cutting off her ring finger so she could use her Hidden Blade. They subsequently raided a compound holding children. They sent the newly liberated children home, but one boy hesitated. Tahira asked Bayek if they should take him to their bureau, to which he insisted on handling it himself.

By 38 BCE, Tahira was placed in charge of overseering the Hidden Ones' Bureau in the Sinai. The penisula was in revolt against the Romans, led by the rebel leader Gamilat. On one occasion, Two Hidden Ones were caught up in a massacre, losing their lives in the process. Desperate to aid the rebellion, she sought Bayek for aid. When Bayek arrived in Sinai, Tahira introduced him to Gamilat and the trio proposed to assassinate Ampelius, Ptahmose and Tacito, the three lieutenants of Gaius Julius Rufio, a Roman general who overseered the Sinai.

Tahira and Bayek then assassinated Tacito, they freed the Quarry from Roman control to the Nabatean rebels, beginning a rebellion in the Sinai. When Bayek returned to the bureau to debrief with Tahira, they were ambushed by Rufio's men, who set fire to the bureau. Tahira and Kashta were subsequently captured by the Romans who imprisoned them in a camp. Amunet and Bayek save Tahira from the romans but she dies in Bayek's arms.
