For note I do think some of the reference material like the Guide do use proto-Assassin but this might only be for Darius. I’m not sure Leonius has been mentioned post Origins in any official media. Further more while proto-Assassin might not be correct, default to Hidden One for those in the interim period is also unsubstantiated as we know the Roman Hidden Ones guild change their name to "Circle of Liberals" which was reconfirmed in Last Descendants. As it is I think we should treat Hidden Ones as the name for the Egyptian and Roman (temporarily) branches but not for all branches that predate the formal establishment of the Assassins. Valhalla should shed more light on this issue and maybe we should table this until then?

You raise an important point about being careful about the usage of Hidden Ones for branches aside from the Egyptians, but I can't tell what is your position on avoiding the usage of "proto-Assassin" in the period from the Hidden Ones to the Assassin state. We can table the matter of using "Hidden Ones" until the release of Valhalla, but I want to be clear what we are going to do about the term "proto-Assassin" now because I keep seeing tweets online and messages on Discord throwing this around haphazardly.
