Tamir

Template:Target InfoboxTamir is the first person Al Mualim orders Altaïr to assassinate. He is found in the poor district of Damascus

Description

Tamir is the largest death dealer in the land and does most of his business in the souk of the poor district of Damascus. He doesn't take kindly to people insulting him and isn't afraid to kill those who do.

At time that Altaïr was searching for him, Tamir had a shipment of weapons for an unknown client that was later revealed to be Robert de Sable (Master of the Templars).

Death

Tamir is assassinated by the silent White Eagle assassin, Altaïr, during a meeting in the courtyard of the Souk Al-Sallah he had with a man filling out Robert's order. The man claims that he doesn't have enough time and enough men to fill out the order by the deadline. Tamir doesn't take kindly to that and calls him names, saying, "These are the kinds of excuses that I would expect from a lazy or incompetent man." He stabs the man and throws him in the fountain. He tells the guard to leave him as a warning.

Altaïr got to him by blending with the crowd. While Tamir was going around to street vendors and insults their work, Altaïr moves to him and stabs Tamir in the throat with his wrist blade. In the cutscene that follows, Tamir claims that he is different from the rest of the death dealers and that his death had a higher meaning. This leaves Altaïr wondering what he could mean. Tamir's death marks the first important public assassination in the Holy Land.
