Biography
In October 2012, Vernon Hest attended a secret meeting in a hotel in Cairo concerning the eye invalid Jonathan Hawk, an Assassin who had recently underwent a surgery. Hest eliminated his contact during the price negotiations for the information regarding Hawk.[1]
Some time later, he was contacted by his superior, Laetitia England, who instructed him to find and recover the Scepter of Aset, an important artifact, before the Assassins did, by reliving the memories of his ancestor, Leila. She transferred him confidential data on the object.[1]
Later, Hest was contacted by Mr. Nakamura, who not only informed him about Laetitia being replaced by Nakamura as his superior, but also telling him that Steve, a Templar 'mole' would soon eliminate Hest's competitor, Jonathan Hawk. Vernon, however, was not very satisfied with this news, as he and Hawk still had to 'settle the scores'.[2]
Trivia
- Hest was described by Alan Rikkin as being not only an efficient agent, but also a cautious one.
