Uberto Alberti
Uberto Alberti was a family friend of the Auditores and Lorenzo de' Medici's ally during the time of Assassin's Creed: Lineage and Assassin's Creed 2 but betrayed them by issuing an arrest on Giovanni, Federico, Petruccio and Ezio (though he escapes it) by order of Rodrigo Borgia. He is also Ezio's first assassination target in the game.
Biography
Assassin's Creed: Lineage
Uberto aids both Giovanni and Lorenzo by giving them advice but when Giovanni discovers possible evidence of the Templar's plans, Uberto gets rid of it, revealing his true allegiance.
Assassin's Creed 2
Ezio meets Uberto for the first time in Giovanni's office conversing about something urgent, though Ezio is dismissed by his father before he can understand what they were talking about. Soon, Giovanni sends Ezio with a letter containing evidence that he must give to Uberto. Ezio does as his father asks, swiftly making it to Uberto's house (Which Rodrigo is currently at). Uberto immediately knows whats in the envelope and asks Ezio if he would like to stay at his house, though Ezio declines. Soon after receiving the letter, Uberto accuses Giovanni, Federico, Petruccio and Ezio (though he escapes because of his errands) of treason. At the day of the execution, Giovanni reminds Uberto of evidence given to him by Ezio that proves his family innocent, but much to his suprise, Uberto confesses that he doesn't know what he is talking about, sentencing the three to death. With the sight of their deaths, Ezio runs up to the front the stage claiming that he will kill Uberto for what he has done, but a Brute Guard disarms Ezio before he could get close enough. Escaping the guards, Ezio heads for Paola, leader of the courtesans, who is watching his mother and sister. After a few days of training Ezio, Paola tracks down Uberto for Ezio's vengence. After Ezio dispatches the guards watching the courtyard, he brutally murders Uberto with his hidden blade, stabbing him 5 times in the chest. By Avenging his father and brothers, Ezio shouts to everyone in the courtyard "THE AUDITORE ARE NOT DEAD, I'M STILL HERE, ME, EZIO, EZIO AUDITORE." thumb|300px|right|Uberto Alberti database video.
Trivia
- Uberto saved the Templars from many close calls by destroying evidence of their conspiracy and hindering their enemy's progress
- It should be noted that Ezio assassinates Alberti in a rather "sloppy" manner when you consider that he does so by stabbing the man with the hidden blade at least several times on the chest, rather than plunging the blade into his target's throat, which is the traditional assassination technique used by other assassins, including his ancestor Altair. Of course, this could be easily explained and understandable to most, since it is Ezio's first time tracking down an assassination target, and he has not been trained extensively by that point.
